[42] Say Yes to Adventure – Trying New Things Without Freaking Out
Have something to share? Text me—I’d love to hear from you!
You know that moment when you want to say yes to something, but your brain immediately talks you out of it?
- What if I’m not ready?
- What if I look stupid?
- What if I fail?
And just like that, the thing that excited you turns into the thing you avoid.
But here’s the truth—confidence isn’t built by thinking about doing things. It’s built by doing them.
In this episode, we’re talking about why your brain resists new experiences, how to stop hesitating, and how to start saying yes to things that stretch you without spiraling into overthinking.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why your brain freaks out over new experiences (and how to retrain it)
- The “Adventure Reflex” – How to say yes before fear talks you out of it
- How to expand your comfort zone in small, low-pressure ways
- How to shift your identity so saying yes becomes second nature
Want to take this work deeper?
In my world, there are different ways to step in.
→ The Podcast & Emails – The space to listen, learn, and start shifting your mindset.
→ The Free Masterclass & Inner Mean Girl Audit – Deeper strategy and personalized insight into what’s keeping you stuck.
→ 1:1 Coaching – Custom support to help you stop second-guessing, start making moves, and build a life that feels like yours.
And if nothing else, here’s your challenge—say yes to one thing this week that stretches you. One thing your brain wants to overthink. One thing that makes you just a little uncomfortable.
Because every adventure starts with one yes.
