175: Doing It Scared: Choosing Growth Over Perfection with Jelisha Gatling

In this episode…

What does it really mean to be free in your business, and in your life?

In this episode, I talk with Jelisha Gatling, therapist and business coach, about the bold and brave steps she took to create the life she truly wanted. From leaving a group practice and starting over in private practice to moving abroad and unlearning the hustle culture she grew up in, Jelisha shares how she has found clarity in what freedom actually meant for her, and how she built a business to support it.

Jelisha and I talk about how therapists can shift from seeking stability to designing a life of simplicity, alignment, and joy. Jelisha’s story is a reminder that living the life you want often means letting go of perfectionism, questioning your assumptions, and allowing yourself to do it scared.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in cycles of overworking or “waiting until you're ready,” this conversation will inspire you to take action—before you feel 100% prepared.
