We are not here for the immediate outcome to manifest in our reality. We are here because of the feelings that it generates on the inside. And if you can put your focus on that, then that is going to make all the difference.
In this candid episode, I dive into the power of showing up for yourself even when you're not feeling motivated or inspired.
I explore how reframing "efforting" into finding some goodness in the action makes it easier to follow through on the things that matter to you.
The key insight?
You don't need to be perfect or even fully committed—showing up at 10% capacity still signals to the universe that you're moving forward. What matters most isn't the immediate tangible results, but the internal feelings of pride, relief, and joy you generate when you honor your commitments to yourself.
This episode itself is proof of the concept, recorded spontaneously with real-life interruptions, demonstrating that authentic action is more powerful than polished perfection every time.
