Overcoming Discouragement, Failure and Feeling Stuck

After seeing so many talented coaches and course creators feeling stuck, discouraged, and uncertain, I knew we had to have this conversation. The truth is, the energy in the world right now—fear, uncertainty, disillusionment—is affecting all of us. But here’s the key: challenges don’t define you; they shape you. In this episode, I break down the three biggest mindset traps that keep experts from breaking through: Believing that setbacks mean failure – How one painful business loss led me to restructure and scale to millions. Comparing yourself to others online – Why the most "successful" people you see are struggling more than you realize. Waiting for the “right” time – The deeply personal story of why I stopped waiting and took action—even in the hardest season of my life. If you’re feeling stuck or like your breakthrough is always just out of reach, this episode will give you the perspective shift you need. The economy may be uncertain, but your ability to adapt and serve is what truly matters.
