We are diving into getting ourselves “un-stuck” on this week’s episode! Join us as we talk through that stuck feeling and strategies you can use to get yourself out of a rut! Want to connect more??

Neurodivergent. It’s a word you’ve probably seen pop up more and more in society and especially in social media. What is it? And how does neurodivergence affect our lives and goals?

When it comes to big ideas, sometimes we can be our own worst enemy. Perfectionism, imposter syndrome and self doubt can make it seem like we have a huge mountain to climb and maybe our ideas are just “too much” for where we are. This week we are talking about overcoming that doubt and understanding that sometimes the best way to create solutions is to…just start! We’re getting right into it, tackling the scary things that lurk in the shadows of our mind - judgment, fear, intrusive thoughts, and taking through ways to overcome and simplify our thought process so we grow into our best selves and accomplish the big ideas that excite us as entrepreneurs! What big plans are you working towards right now? How has the process looked for you? We want to hear from you! Shoot us a DM or an email! We can’t wait to hear from you! @elliemckinneyphotography @khicephotography [email protected]
