#186 - What IF You’re Better Than You Think?

What would change if you stopped waiting to feel ready and trusted yourself sooner?

In today’s episode, I speak directly to podcasters and creators who feel stuck, hesitant, or unsure about taking the next step. This episode is about self-trust, momentum, and the cost of holding your content back. It is not about being perfect. It is about showing up before confidence catches up. 

If you have episodes sitting on your hard drive or ideas you keep postponing, this episode will challenge you to move forward. Sometimes the only thing standing between you and real growth is the decision to start. Press record and put your next episode out.
