Recently, new opportunities have started to surface—some enticing, but also potentially distracting. She’s hesitant to say yes without knowing whether they align with her deeper direction. She believes she can take on new business—if she gains clarity on who her future self is becoming and what that version of her is truly striving for. For her, alignment is key. She’s seeking a clear internal compass to help her discern what to say yes to—and, just as importantly, why.

How many times have you asked yourself, "Why them and not me?" This episode explores what it takes to persevere rather than surrender to the situation.

Our daydreams can be a reality if we believe they are worth fighting for, but first, we must be willing to expose them to breathe life into them.
