Today’s episode of From Stuck to Started is a little different. I’m sharing some personal reflections from my own life and business about growth mindset, asking for help, and navigating perfectionism, fear, and discomfort. Through a story about hiking—and a few winding but connected reflections—you’ll hear what I’ve learned from one year of podcasting and what it really means to give yourself credit for the climb, not just the summit.

What you’ll learn in this episode:

• Why growth mindset is less about reaching the top and more about how you handle the climb
• How fear, perfectionism, and all-or-nothing thinking can quietly keep you stuck
• The power of being “seen trying” and why it’s a skill worth practicing
• What I’ve learned in my first year of podcasting—and how I’ve learned to adapt my own expectations along the way
• How to reflect on your own goals, challenges, and wins (and actually give yourself credit for them)
