As we celebrate our 300th episode, we go back to where it all began and reflect on why beginning something new is so hard (or maybe it really is all very simple!).When we decided to record our very first podcast episode, there was a thought that we were too late and that there were too many, should we even bother? We had the same thought process when we started our blog.It can be really overwhelming to begin something new. We had to push these thoughts aside and not be afraid to be a beginner.Stuff we talked about…People are afraid of being a beginner because they don’t want to look foolish. They fear failure. They compare themselves to experts.If you’re pretending to be an expert, the inauthenticity screams through. Start with your truth.Addiction to be perfect and the feeling of not being good enough make you not begin.If you figure out what you want to do, if you follow your bliss, if you do what lights you up, and create a goal.. Boom! Maybe you just will have the ride of your life.The hero and the coward
