The Mindful Startup

In this episode of The Mindful Startup Podcast, I reflect on something a founder shared with me during a recent interview about the all-too-common experience of low confidence days. It's easy to get wrapped up in those moments of self-doubt, but it’s important to remember that you’re not alone in feeling this way—and that everyone, no matter how successful, has faced similar struggles.

I talk about how we often internalize these low confidence days and let them define us, when in reality, they don’t say anything about our worth or capabilities. The key takeaway? Success is not defined by your low moments, but by how you respond to them.

I also challenge you to shift your focus from the “self-doubt pile” to the “evidence pile”—those moments, interactions, and confirmations that prove you have everything you need to succeed. Don’t let a moment of insecurity define you.

Stay tuned for the upcoming episode with the founder where we’ll dive deeper into this topic and explore how to navigate those tough days. You've got this!

In this episode of The Mindful Startup Podcast, I share a personal reflection on navigating work during tough times.

In episode 75 of The Mindful Startup Podcast, we dive into a crucial lesson for entrepreneurs: why keeping your business ideas, future plans, and decision-making processes private is one of the smartest moves you can make. Whether you’re in the early stages of a startup, pivoting to a new venture, or taking on bigger projects, oversharing can hold you back in ways you may not expect.

I share five key reasons why discussing your ideas with the wrong people can be harmful—from limiting beliefs and bad advice to envy and loss of credibility.

It doesn’t need to be monumental. It doesn’t need to be heroic. It just needs to get done.

In this episode of The Mindful Starter Podcast, we’re talking about something we all deal with—overthinking. You don’t need to do something heroic or groundbreaking today. You just need to show up and take one step forward.

I’ll share some personal stories about dealing with the fear of messing up, and how perfectionism can totally derail you. Plus, I’ll break down how to stop overthinking, face what’s holding you back, and just get started—even if it’s messy.

It doesn’t have to be perfect. It doesn’t have to be a big deal. Just showing up is the key. Let’s do this together.

Show up as you are feeling, however you are feeling. Entrepreneurship for highly emotional people.

Don’t allow shame to stop you from reaching your truest potential.
