Hey there, friend! Welcome back to the podcast. I have a question for you today:

How often have you talked yourself out of something that could genuinely change your life?

Maybe it was a course, a coach, a gym membership, or even just taking time for yourself. You wanted to do it, but then the excuses rolled in…

💭 “I don’t have time for this.”
💭 “I can’t justify the cost when my family needs things.”
💭 “What if I don’t follow through?”
💭 “I should be able to figure this out on my own.”

Sound familiar?

Today, we’re going to talk about why so many women hesitate to invest in themselves—and more importantly, what it’s actually costing you. Because the truth is, staying the same has a cost too.

Let’s dive in.

Get some powerful mantras to inspire, encourage, and life you up when you need as little something intentional to focus on.
