If you try that new, scary thing, sure you might fail! But, if you don’t try you have no chance to succeed. What the stomach fluttering/heart palps/clammy hands are telling you is that you feel so much is on the line with this that you are sending yourself into fight or flight mode. Should you fight or should you flee? Get out there!

I worked as an actor until I got taller than most of the men hired to play my “dad”. (Actors are generally very small people with big heads…literally and figuratively).

Turn the camera on and show up on Zoom. Work from home used to be all chill with kids yelling and cats mooning the meeting. Now, though, if you don’t show up ready to be counted, you’re risking your upward mobility.

Success isn’t a destination, it’s an outcome of the work we put in every day.
