We explore why “ready” is often a mirage, how fear and excitement share the same roots, and why one small step beats perfect timing. Research, personal stories, and real-world examples give you a simple path to act with courage and clarity.
• waiting as the hidden trap that stalls change
• fear and excitement as twin signals for growth
• personal stories on podcasting, motherhood, and career shifts
• mindset shift from perfect to possible with tiny steps
• process visualization to build resilience and confidence
• safety nets that support without delaying action
• anchoring in your why during the messy middle
• real-world examples from Oprah, Elon Musk, and Sarah Blakely
• reflection prompt to choose one small step today
