530: Stop Lying to Yourself: How to Finally Discover What You Really Want

Are you stuck playing small because you’re not being honest about what you truly want?

In this episode, I invite you into my real-time journey of self-discovery—unpacking what it means to find your flow, listen to your inner voice, and step into the life you deserve.

Let’s get raw about worthiness, fear, and aligning your path with purpose.

Here are 3 Key Takeaways:

1. Identify When You're in Flow: The key to discovering what you truly want is to notice the moments when time slips away—when work feels effortless and energizing. Reflect on those scenarios in detail to find clues about your genuine passions and pursuits.

2. Stop Settling—Get Honest With Yourself: Many of us create comforting but untrue narratives about what we deserve or can achieve. Real growth and fulfillment come when we get radical with our self-honesty, even if what we really want feels out of reach or a little scary.

3. Listen for the Whisper, Not the Noise: It's easy to get distracted by the chaos of daily life and external expectations. But the most important guidance comes in quiet moments—from that still, small voice within. Make an intentional effort to tune in, because that’s where your real answers are hiding.
