I just spent more money than I've ever spent in my life on renovating my kitchen. And honestly? I've been absolutely riddled with doubts about it. Can I afford this? Is it worth it? Am I making a massive mistake?

But here's what I've realized: doubt isn't a red flag telling you to stop. It's actually proof that you're doing something you've never done before. You're growing. You're changing. You're stepping into new territory.

In this episode, I'm getting real about the doubts I've been having lately. House renovations, GMC expanding with the Edinburgh multi-day event, new coaches joining the team, my MRI coming up, potentially doing the London Marathon. All of it comes with doubt. And I've learned that the times in my life when I felt the most certain were actually the times I wasn't growing at all.

We cover:

  • Why doubt is actually a sign you're ready (not that you're not)
  • The danger of staying comfortable just because it's familiar
  • Why you can't solve your problems with your current level of thinking
  • Kill the monsters when they're small (before they get bigger)
  • How speed of decision-making beats perfect information
  • The difference between leaning into discomfort vs running from it
  • Why you don't need a reset, you just need to do

If you've been putting something off because you're not "ready" yet, this one's for you. Spoiler: the doubt you're feeling is exactly why you need to move forward, not backwards.

Follow for weekly real talk on personal development, coaching, and living the life you actually want.
