Turning 31 has me feeling way more relaxed than when I hit 30—no more freaking out, just embracing the process. In this episode, I’m catching you up on life, reflecting on the pressure we put on ourselves to have it all figured out, and diving into the truth that everybody starts somewhere.
If you've ever felt stuck, scared to start, or like you're behind in life, this is your reminder that no one begins as an expert. Every big success story had a messy "Day 1," and the only way forward is to take that first step.
In this episode, we cover:
✨ Letting go of the pressure to have it all figured out
✨ Why fear of being a beginner holds so many people back
✨ The mindset shift that makes starting easier
✨ Famous examples of people who started with nothing
✨ Why just starting is more important than waiting for the perfect moment
No matter what you're working toward—whether it's a new career, a creative project, or just a new chapter in life—this episode is here to remind you that you don’t need to be ready. You just need to begin.
