“Be really careful about where you give your f*cks.”

- Shinah

This episode is being released the week that I am turning the big 4-0. I’ve spent a lot of time over the past couple of weeks thinking about the message that I want to share with my audience during this major milestone.

I wanted to share the kind of message that would have made a younger version of Shinah feel a little bit stronger, more self aware, and more confident.

Because I definitely want my audience to feel all of those things!

The message I landed on was actually inspired by a conversation I had with my life coach of over six years. It’s something that she was told by a super-successful business owner when she asked him about the secret sauce that led to his massive success.

That secret? “It’s about caring less.”

Caring less. What does that mean? What does that look like in the context of building a creative business? What does it mean on a personal, emotional level? How do you avoid getting caught up in the little details that can slow you down from achieving your REAL goals?

We’re going to get into it — it all starts when you hit play!
