Ever found yourself hesitating to start something—even something you really want—because you’re afraid it won’t work? You’re not alone.

In this episode, we dive into a common mindset block: the fear of putting in effort and not seeing results. That fear of "wasting time" can keep you stuck in a holding pattern—thinking, preparing, second-guessing—but never actually taking the action that would move you forward.

We’ll explore:

-Why the need for a guaranteed outcome is holding you back

-How gripping too tightly to a result creates resistance and burnout

-The real meaning of failure—and why it’s a necessary part of success

-What to reflect on when you’re stuck in indecision or fear

If you’re ready for change but find yourself stuck in the “what if it doesn’t work?” cycle, this one’s for you. Let’s talk about how to shift your mindset, let go of the outcome, and take courageous (even imperfect) action.
