We ALL know growth isn't linear - so why do we act like it is? In this episode I'm sharing some of my own experiences AND an update on what will be changing while I "shift gears" myself. This episode is going to normalise the 'ickyness' feeling of growing and hopefully give you some ways to support yourself too...LINKS:

Sticking with something that requires courage, discipline and dedication can be T-R-I-C-K-Y. ESPECIALLY when that same thing involves you EVOLVING in public, learning as you go and presenting your authenticity to the world in the face of being judged, criticised or "failing".

I recorded today's episode live to celebrate the Inner Work Conversation reaching 25,000 downloads and although this episode contains the 7 things I've learnt from podcasting ...rest assured these same 7 lessons can be applied to ANYthing you are pursuing in life personally or in business professionally, they are:

1. Lower the stakes


2. Figure it out as you go


3. Exposure therapy is a good approach


4. Evolving might be as cringey as your facebook timehop


5. Create from a place that feels good (not from the "shoulds")


6. Don't let your insecurities fill the void


7. Celebrate your wins

I hope you enjoy this and I really look forward to hearing which of the points resonated the most with YOU. Here are the links you might want...
