Overthinking shows up as research without drafts, resumes that never get sent, and weeks of “planning” with nothing shipped. In this episode, I map out concrete ways to move from thinking to doing without burning out.
We walk through fear types (failure, rejection, judgment, and even success) and simple reframes that keep you moving. You’ll learn how to turn rejection into useful data, set one clear priority each day, and use time blocks and short deadlines so work actually leaves your laptop. We also cover how to pace growth so a bigger role feels sustainable, not scary, and how to build lightweight systems and feedback loops so you improve with every rep.
If you’re applying, aiming for promotion, or restarting after a stall, you’ll leave with a clear way to pick an action, ship it within 24 hours, and review what happened. No pep talks, just steps. Join our Free Biotech Career Coach Skool community for accountability, feedback, and tools to put this into practice.
