In this episode, I revisit one of the most impactful articles I’ve ever written — 7 Ways You Keep Yourself From Your Calling — with fresh eyes and 11 more years of coaching and life under my belt.
I break down the common mental blocks and limiting beliefs I see time and again with my clients and community — from waiting on permission to downplaying your unique brilliance — and I share the mindset shifts you must adopt to finally answer your true calling in 2025 and beyond.
Whether you’re a seasoned professional still feeling unfulfilled, or an emerging voice trying to find the courage to shine, this episode is your reminder that your calling won’t wait forever — and neither should you.
