SOLO: I’m Not Ready Yet

with host artist Miriam Schulman

Today, we’re talking all about “not feeling ready yet” and, as you might have guessed, it’s also about courage and building self-confidence!

.

In this podcast, you will discover…

• Why sometimes you have to do things even when you don’t feel ready.
• Why doing things even when you don’t have everything figured out builds confidence.
• I’ll be sharing a true story from my recent experience doing a trade show for the first time, and also when I went to see Georgia O’ Keefe’s ranch in New Mexico.

Listener shout out of the week!

“I can’t stop listening to this podcast! I love the energy, insight, humor and realness in these conversations. One of my favorite quotes is from the first episode where Miriam shares: ‘What people self-criticize is usually what makes then different…Embrace the things that make you different. Own it and elevate it.'”
