Have you been putting off your goals and dreams? Here are 5 tips for getting out of your own way so you can start doing those things you’ve been dreaming of  - before you feel 100% ready, and without needing to be “perfect.”

Media exec, transformational speaker, and proud member of the LGBTQIA+ community, Shirin Etessam shared strategies from her forthcoming book, FREE TO BE: A Six-Week Guide to Reclaiming Your Soul.  Shirin detailed her remarkable 6-year quest for healing after a shocking split. Shirin emerged with a new outlook, new love, and a science-backed 6-week formula for living a happier, healthier, more authentic life. Examples include brain and heart “detoxing” from the “infoxication” that we’re bombarded with on a daily basis,  rewriting our personal stories, and getting clear on which people are (and aren’t) your “people.” 

The lessons found in her book are those Shirin has used with major corporate clients including Apple, ABC, BBC, Virgin, Intel, and more.

In this episode, I pose some questions that can help you clarify what you really want for yourself and jumpstart powerful transformation.  You really CAN start creating the life that a part of you has probably wanted for a long time (but was afraid to go for). So, grab a pen and paper, set aside some “me time,” and get ready to begin creating the future, happier, healthier, and more confident you right now!
