What Changed Once I Stopped Rushing Myself


Listen Later

Have you ever noticed how often urgency takes over before clarity has a chance to land?

In this short reflection, Liz Murray shares what actually changed once she stopped rushing herself, not in a dramatic or performative way, but in the small, everyday moments where most capable people quietly override their own signals.

This episode isn’t about why slowing down matters, that conversation has already been had. It’s about what becomes visible after you stop rushing: how urgency can mask uncertainty, why fast decisions often cost more energy, and how clarity creates cleaner leadership.

If you’re capable, thoughtful, and tired of pushing momentum before things feel clear, this reflection will resonate.

In this episode, Liz explores: Why urgency is often internal, not external How rushing becomes a way to avoid uncertainty What changes when clarity leads instead of speed Why cleaner decisions take less energy, not more

Momentum doesn’t disappear when you slow down — it recalibrates.
