333. It Doesn't Matter Where You Start, Just Start

April 25th, 2022 marks five years since I released Powerhouse Woman and it feels incredible to look back on how much this community has grown since then. As I'm approaching this anniversary, I'm noticing a theme that's coming up in the groups that I'm involved in and retreats that I've hosted recently. So many women have this undeniable feeling inside that they're meant for more, but maybe they're pushing up against confusion on where to start, what the right step is, or even feeling paralyzed by the thought of making the wrong choice. I know those thought patterns all too well, and in today's episode, I'm sharing four tips that helped me take that big leap five years ago and just start. I share how to build your confidence, breathwork exercises that help me gain clarity, and ways to capitalize on your skillset. In this episode we talk about: How to tap into your bigger vision and get moving in the right direction My journey with starting this podcast Why it's more important to take the first step instead of waiting for the perfect time to start Deciding if you prefer to dip your toes in the water, or cannon ball into the deep end Sitting with the question, "What do I really want to do?" Being honest about where you tend to take yourself out of the game Figuring out what you can monetize If you loved today's episode, please share your favorite takeaways or your own systems and processes by screenshotting this episode and tagging us on Instagram!

( 10:40 ) The first tip that Lindsey shares is, "If this feels really overwhelming and you are really starting to bump up against some fear, I want you to start with whatever step you feel the least resistance around." ( 11:50 ) The second tip is to sit quietly and ask yourself, "What do I really want? What do I really feel lit up about? If nothing were off the table no matter what I did, what would I do?" ( 14:05 ) Lindsey says, "It's necessary to be honest about where you tend to take yourself out of the game." ( 16:15 ) Lindsey says, "I want you to ask yourself this: what is the easiest thing that I could monetize?" ( 19:42 ) Lindsey summarized the four tips.

331. If Your Dream Opportunity Showed Up Today, Would You Be Ready?

If you had your absolute dream opportunity show up in front of you today, would you be ready for it? Or have you unintentionally been keeping yourself and your business small, waiting for some arbitrary time in the future where you'll feel more ready, or when someone else will validate that you're enough? This is something that came up for me recently when my name was being tossed around for a huge speaking opportunity, and I had the chance to fulfill a major dream of mine. I didn't land the gig, but it made me realize that I need to make myself more visible and chase what I know I was put on this earth to do. I discuss overcoming the fear of being perceived as 'too much' or 'full of yourself,' and share a really great way to reframe those thoughts that my friend Patrice Washington came up with. So, are you in a position to take that opportunity and run with it? Listen in if you're ready to get there. In this episode we talk about: Where this question sprung up for me How I need to be intentional about building the platform that is required for the speaking engagements that I want The thought work that has to happen in order to dream bigger Ways that you can put yourself in a position to say 'yes' to your next opportunity Living a regret-free life If you loved today's episode, please share your favorite takeaways or your own systems and processes by screenshotting this episode and tagging us on Instagram!

329. How To Stop People-Pleasing At The Expense Of Your Own Dreams

For the majority of my life, I've just chosen to compromise my own dreams in the hopes of not disappointing other people. In doing so, I've actually missed the opportunities to make the full impact that I know I'm meant to make. Where do you see yourself holding back in order to make other people more comfortable? In this episode, I'm talking about the role that fear has played in my entrepreneurial journey and how I'm working to overcome those moments of self doubt. I share a quote from Glennon Doyle that has really impacted how I view my own potential and the duty that I have to pursue my wildest and boldest ideas. I also list a few journal prompt questions that I've been working with and get into how I've been approaching this thought work. In this episode we talk about: Why so many of us hold back on what we really want Thoughts, doubts, and questions that come up for me when I'm in an intense growth season Where I've seen myself compromise my vision How I'm working on my people-pleasing tendencies Why it's actually selfish to not reach your full potential Tapping into your subconscious mind and intuition The discomfort of being stagnant If you loved today's episode, please share your favorite takeaways or your own systems and processes by screenshotting this episode and tagging us on Instagram!

Lindsey opens up the episode by asking listeners, "Who are you most afraid of disappointing if you were to go after your dreams?" ( 2:19 ) Lindsey says, "I think a big reason why we hold back and we don't go all in and share really boldly is a fear of what other people are going to think about it." ( 5:40 ) Lindsey shares a quote from Glennon Doyle that really impacted her. "Every time you are given a choice between disappointing someone else and disappointing yourself, your duty is to disappoint that someone else. Your job throughout your entire life is to disappoint as many people as it takes to avoid disappointing yourself." ( 8:16 ) Lindsey shares moments when she has chosen to disappoint herself instead of other people. ( 10:39 ) Lindsey poses another reflective question for listeners. "If you knew that you could do anything and no one would be disappointed, if you could have anything and no one would be mad or jealous or triggered, what would you want?" ( 11:26 ) Lindsey describes how this question has guided her in the past. ( 16:13 ) Lindsey says, "The times when I avoid taking that step for far too long because I'm afraid of disappointing someone, that almost becomes more uncomfortable than taking the step." ( 17:49 ) Lindsey closes out the episode by saying, "When we do the bold thing, we actually change the world."
