This week’s episode is a behind-the-scenes reflection on entrepreneurial resilience, growth edges, and the power of letting yourself be a beginner again.

I share how a moment of self-doubt and near-quitting turned into one of the most clarifying weeks I’ve had so far, and why asking for help changed everything. This is an episode about learning curves, nervous system growth, and choosing to stay in the arena even when it feels uncomfortable.

In this episode, I explore:

* Why sometimes clarity only comes after giving an experience time to settle

* Letting yourself be a beginner, even when you have decades of experience in other areas

* The difference between mastery skills and growth-edge skills, and why sales and marketing pushed on mine

* How asking for help from the right people can instantly shift perspective and momentum

* Why surrounding yourself with people who have already walked the path matters

* Reframing discomfort as a training ground rather than a signal to quit

* How past resilience practices prepared me for this season of visibility and initiation

* Remembering that growth is not linear, and learning is meant to be lived, not perfected

I close this episode with an invitation to reflect on your own growth edge. Where are you learning something new? Where might you be expecting yourself to already “know” something that you’re actually allowed to practice, stumble through, and grow into?
