Bold Action: Moving Beyond Fear, Perfectionism, and Hesitation
You know those moments in life when things align in a way you couldn’t have planned? This episode is one of them. Scheduled during Navratri—a nine-day festival in Indian culture honouring the many strengths of Goddess Durga—it’s the perfect backdrop for a conversation about courage, clarity, resilience, and bold action.
In this powerful episode of Break Free to Brilliance, host Seema Giri shares how traditions, personal struggles, and leadership lessons weave together into a practical framework for bold action. Drawing on stories from her own journey—writing her first book, launching a business after autoimmune illness, and letting go of perfectionism—Seema reveals how bold action is less about fearlessness and more about moving forward while scared.
You’ll learn:
Why hesitation shows up as fear, perfectionism, and overthinking—and how to move through it.
The 3-Step Bold Action Framework to clarify your next move and create momentum.
How small, consistent micro-actions compound into meaningful results.
Why accountability and saying yes before you’re ready accelerates growth.
The hidden cost of perfectionism and the freedom in choosing “done over perfect.”
✨ Whether you celebrate Navratri or not, these lessons are universal. Bold action isn’t about culture or timing—it’s about recognizing the strength already within you and choosing to move forward authentically.
🎧 Listen now and let your bold action today be the spark of your brilliance.
