What's holding us back from discovering our true selves is usually permission...the permission we need to give ourselves to act when we don't have the answers. In this conversation on What Do You Know To Be True?, we explore why growth, meaning, and motivation are only possible when we give ourselves permission to engage with the world and with other people.

If you’re asking questions like…
➡️ How do I find my purpose?
➡️ What am I capable of?
➡️ What is my potential?
…this conversation offers a powerful reframe.

Personal development isn’t about waiting until you have clarity or confidence. It’s about being willing to act, experiment, and learn, even when you don’t have the answers.

My guest, Jillian Reilly, shares why giving yourself permission to grow is one of the most essential leadership and life skills today.

Drawing from decades of work in global change, leadership development, and coaching leaders, from working on the first elections in post-Apartheid South Africa to helping people with HIV/AIDS in Zimbabwe, she challenges the idea that growth happens through introspection alone.

We talk about why discovering your potential is relational, not solitary. Why comfort zones keep us small. And how acting without having all the answers becomes a gateway to adaptability, creativity, resilience, and purpose in a rapidly changing world.

This episode is especially relevant for coaches, leaders, org development professionals, and small business owners who help others unlock their potential and are navigating their own questions of meaning, direction, and impact.
