EP047 | Taking My Own Advice—And Everything Changed

Ever struggled with taking your own advice and trusting yourself? In this candid episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on how I finally stopped overthinking and started following the exact strategies I'd been teaching clients for years. After spending too long trying to 'figure it all out first,' I discovered that clarity doesn't come from perfect planning – it comes from action. I'm sharing the three mindset shifts that transformed my approach to visibility and the uncomfortable truth about why knowing what to do isn't enough if you don't trust yourself to do it. Perfect for business owners who feel stuck in analysis paralysis or anyone who helps others while struggling to apply the same wisdom to themselves. Listen now to discover how I went from compartmentalizing, overcomplicating, and hiding behind labels to finally embracing an approach that feels easy, aligned, and (surprisingly) fun.

It's about what happens when you already know what to do, but don't trust yourself enough to take your own advice." "It took me a long time to realize that helping people get visible in a way that's aligned with them and their goals IS a business strategy." "Visibility is a practice, not a destination. Even after years of helping others get visible, I still have moments of hesitation. The difference is that now I recognize those moments as normal parts of growth, not signals to stop."
