We all know that feeling: you sit down to start something challenging, and suddenly, everything else feels more appealing. Your phone, a snack, even cleaning out your sock drawer. Anything to avoid the hard thing in front of you.

But here’s the truth: being able to do hard things is one of the most valuable skills you can develop.

In this episode, I’m sharing seven practical strategies to help you move forward when something feels impossible. These aren’t vague “push through it” tips—they’re real, actionable techniques that help you break tasks down, shift your mindset, and get started even when your brain is screaming NOPE.

You’ll also hear how procrastination, overwhelm, and cognitive distortions get in the way—and how to outsmart them.

Hard things don’t have to take you out at the knees. Let’s do this.

Never stop learning.
