If you’re a business owner, leader, or dreamer eager for transformation and ready for a reality check served with the side of hilarity, then this is your show.

Remember that anniversary podcast episode I promised you two months ago? No? Good. Let’s pretend I never mentioned it. Just kidding. In this, My Good Woman short, in this MGW short, we are unmasking the not-so-sneaky villain behind that delay.

In this episode:

  • To recognize the significance of personal growth over the need for external approval.
  • To acknowledge what slows your progress and get to the root of it
  • The value of embracing your flaws and harnessing the power of imperfect action.
  • How overcoming fear can inspire change on a global scale

This episode at a glance:

[03:48] The fear of not making it perfect; the fear of doing it wrong. I let listening to other people’s examples get in the way, get in my head of making this episode.

[05:12] Because the longer we wait to start, the bigger that mountain is to climb the bigger it seems.

[05:49] There were a lot of things going on in the business. I was busy, there were things going on at home. And so it was very easy to justify my delay in recording. .

[07:20] So what if it’s not perfect? The sky’s not gonna fall. Chickens, won’t start speaking French. And I won’t be less of a boss. If it’s not the most popular episode.  If nobody downloads it, then I’ll have it to listen to for posterity

[08:01]  I wish I could like wave my magic Harry Potter wand over here and, and banish it forever. But let’s be real, anytime we step up bigger. It’s going to show up again.
