The scariest decision I ever made? Leaving the safety of a full-time job to start my own business. For years, I told myself I wasn’t “ready.” That I needed more experience. That it was too risky. But at some point, I had to ask myself: Was I staying where I was because it was the best path? Or just because it was the safest? So I took the leap. It wasn’t easy. I had to unlearn a lot of self-doubts... - what I was capable of building - what was possible - my own value But once I let go of the fear, I saw opportunities everywhere. Clients. Speaking gigs. Most importantly, a business that gave me more freedom than I ever could have imagined. Looking back, the real risk wasn’t leaving. It was staying safe. If you’re on the edge of a big decision, ask yourself: Is fear keeping you grounded? Or are you ready to rise above it and dream about what's possible?
