Have you ever downplayed what you really wanted because it felt safer not to ask for too much? There were seasons when I told myself I was fine with a smaller version of the dream, but deep down, I knew I was playing small. Today, I share three reasons why we don’t ask for more, as well as tangible practices to overhaul this pattern in order to fully OWN even the biggest version of your dream. I go over the sneaky cost of settling, including energetic drains from half-commitment and abandonment for our authenticity, before revealing how to stretch your capacity to go all-in on what you want in every area of life. If you’re ready to stop settling and unlock your full potential, this is YOUR episode!
