This episode will change how you think about readiness, and how you take action in your life and business.

Today, Becky dives into a truth every entrepreneur knows but rarely admits: you’re never really ready. Waiting for the perfect moment, the ideal conditions, or the “right” version of yourself only leads to missed opportunities, faded ideas, and dreams left unfinished.

This isn’t just a talk about courage but a masterclass in taking action when fear and doubt are loudest. Becky shares her own stories of stepping into the unknown, from launching her business to recording this very podcast, and explains why confidence, clarity, and readiness always follow action – never precede it.

In this inspiring and practical episode, you’ll learn:
 • Why waiting to feel ready is often the biggest barrier to progress
 • How tiny, consistent steps can build momentum, confidence, and clarity
 • Ways to move forward even when your inner critic is shouting “not yet”
• How to turn hesitation into action, so your dreams don’t wither while you wait

If you’ve been postponing a project, a launch, or a bold step in your life, this episode is the reset you didn’t know you needed.

The key takeaway?
You’re never truly ready – and that’s exactly why now is the perfect time to start.

Listeners will hear a raw and honest discussion about:

• Making courageous career pivots and following your inner compass
• Building purpose-led businesses aligned with personal values
• Navigating the “messy middle” of life and business
• Redefining success on your own terms

In this honest episode, Becky unpacks a quiet but powerful force that holds so many founders back: self-doubt. But not the loud, obvious kind. We're talking about the sneaky version that disguises itself as being “too busy,” needing more clarity, or putting clients first.

Through storytelling and real talk, Becky explores how this subtle form of self-doubt can convince us to put our deepest dreams on hold, often indefinitely. She shares her own journey of pushing her ambitions to the backburner, and the turning point that helped her reclaim her vision, one small step at a time.

This episode will help you:

· Recognise the hidden ways self-doubt shows up in your life and business

· Understand why it matters (because life’s too short not to go after what you want)

· Reframe self-doubt as a sign you care, not a signal to stop

· Discover gentle, strategic ways to move forward — even with fear in the room

If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in procrastination, perfectionism, or putting everyone else first, this one’s for you.

Part 3: Make 3 Small Shifts to Make It Happen

In this final part of the series, we move from awareness into gentle action, the kind of action that doesn’t overwhelm or derail, but instead creates momentum, clarity, and meaningful change.

Becky shares the three simple shifts that can help you start shaping your “one day” business right now without no dramatic rebrand required.

This episode will help you:
 • Identify what to let go of (what feels heavy, outdated, or off)
 • Invite in what you’ve been longing to do, but haven’t made space for
 • Amplify the things that already work, light you up, and align with your dream

The key takeaway?
You don’t need to do more. You need to do more of what matters, to you.

Your “one day” business is possible, and it starts with one decision: to stop settling and start choosing.

So you’ve reconnected with your dream. Now what?

In Part 2 of this three-part series, Becky gently guides you through a clear-eyed look at your current business. Not from a place of judgement, but from compassion. This is about awareness, and small, soulful realignment.

This episode will help you:
 • Audit your business through the lens of energy, alignment, and truth
 • Spot what’s no longer working — even if it still “makes sense on paper”
 • Understand the sneaky ways your business can drift from your values
 • Feel more empowered to shift toward what feels good (and away from what doesn’t)

Part 1: What Do You Actually Want?

What happens when your business starts to grow in a direction that no longer feels like you? When the dream you had gets buried under to-do lists, client demands, and the pressure to “keep up”?

In this gentle, grounding episode, Becky invites you to pause and ask a quietly powerful question: What do you actually want?

This is the first part of a three-part series designed to help you reconnect with your long-held dreams, the ones that might have been sitting on the backburner for far too long.

 • Notice where you've drifted from what you truly want (and why that’s so common)
 • Reflect on what your “one day” business actually looks and feels like
 • Begin to rebuild from a place of honesty, intention, and possibility

The key takeaway?
You don’t need to burn it all down to find your way back. You just need to listen to yourself again.

We’re sold the myth that clarity arrives like a divine download- sudden, total, and wrapped up with a bow. But what if clarity doesn’t land. What if it unfolds?

In this gently disruptive episode, Becky invites you into a more honest, human conversation about clarity, the kind that rarely arrives in a lightning bolt, but instead shows up as breadcrumbs, questions, and quietly courageous steps. 

Through her own story and behind-the-scenes moments with clients (hello, Sarah, Ellie, and Jen. Your stories matter 🙌), we explore how clarity isn’t something we wait for but it’s something we create.

If you’ve ever found yourself saying, “I just need to get clear first,” this one’s for you. Because clarity isn’t a prerequisite for action. It’s often the result of it.

You’ll walk away with:
 ✨ A new way to think about clarity (it’s not a verdict, it’s a process)
 ✨ The power of slow questions and honest answers
 ✨ Why small steps lead to real knowing, even when the full picture isn’t clear 

This episode isn’t about finding the “right answer” — it’s about choosing to trust yourself enough to begin, even in the fog.

Press play when you’re tired of waiting and ready to move.

In this heartfelt and deeply personal episode of The Quietly Disruptive Business Podcast, Becky Benfield Humberstone explores a question so many founders wrestle with silently: "How do I know when it’s time to pivot?"

Far from being about failure or starting over, Becky unpacks the quiet signals that it might be time for change, including the inner knowing that something just doesn’t fit anymore. She shares her own story of walking away from a long-term retainer client that, while stable on the surface, was slowly draining her joy, creativity, and self-worth.

This isn’t just a cautionary tale but a call to check in with yourself. Through three powerful reflection questions, Becky guides listeners who feel stuck, misaligned, or creatively burnt out toward clarity and courage.

You'll walk away with:

·       A new perspective on what pivoting really means

·       Permission to change your mind and evolve

·       Practical questions to uncover your next step

·       A reminder that staying small to feel safe isn’t the only option

Whether you're in a quiet season of questioning or standing at a clear crossroads, this episode is your invitation to choose yourself, and to build the business you REALLY want.
