Are you waiting until you're “ready”?
Until the timing is perfect?
Until you feel certified, qualified, validated, or brave enough?

If so, this episode of the Balancing Busy Podcast is your loving nudge (okay, maybe a little shove 😉) to stop waiting and start leaping.

Because here’s the truth:
Validation comes after the leap—not before.

In this episode, I’m sharing the real-life, slightly crazy stories of the bold moves I made before I had all the answers (including signing my husband up for college without telling him—yep, true story). Plus, I’ll unpack the five biggest stall tactics I see women using to delay their dreams and how to break free from them.

IN THIS EPISODE:

• Why waiting for permission is keeping you stuck
• The truth about confidence (and why it’s always delayed gratification)
• The top 5 “stall tactics” women use to disguise fear as preparation
