“Everything I want is on the other side of fear.” I never tire of these motivating words because I need that constant reminder, especially as a growing and learning entrepreneur, that new things are hard and it doesn’t make them impossible. How do you confront hesitation or fear with something new and/or challenging? I’d love to learn your tips. Please leave a comment below.

I wonder how many great ideas from young professionals never see the day of light because you’re afraid it won’t be good enough. I wonder how many new ways of doing the same old thing don’t come to fruition because you don't want to make a mistake. I wonder how many of you aren’t comfortable respectfully challenging your boss’ idea because nobody ever showed you how to effectively manage and nurture this important relationship. If you’re nodding your head in agreement, you’re not alone. Feel free to DM me if you have questions on how to move past these hesitations and fears.

Imagine feeling productive at the end of the day WITHOUT checking everything off your list. Imagine NOT feeling guilty for enjoying the summer evening with friends or family instead of opening the laptop. Nobody's going to give you permission to do this except you! So, why is this so difficult? Is it possible you're setting unrealistic expectations of yourself either because you're afraid to make a mistake, ask for support or that your leader will think less of you? If you think you’ve crossed the line from setting high to impossible standards of yourself, let's chat. If you’re burned out, over-stressed and lacking work/life balance, I can help and this is what I love to do. Feel free to schedule a quick conversation with me. https://lnkd.in/grWEFQbZ

I've been reading "The Purple Parachute" by 🌏 Paula Battalia Brand. As a certified coach who guides many clients looking for their next career move, I highly recommend it. There are so many easy, practical exercises you can do on your own to help you find the right company and job for you. While this book says it is geared toward professional women, I think anyone will benefit from all that it offers. #careerchange #careercoaching

I can help you reduce rumination - those negative thoughts on replay - so you can increase your productivity and confidence. It starts with creating awareness around your own energy level, so you can consciously choose whether the worry is serving a purpose. #confidence #productivity #rumination Purple Engine Coaching & Consulting
