Life is Wating on You: Make the First Move
with Barbara Patterson
About This Episode
We tell ourselves we’re waiting for the right moment, more information or better conditions. But often, those delays are just fear in disguise.
In this solo episode, Barb unpacks how business has a way of shining a light on the patterns that keep us holding back, second-guessing, overthinking, playing it safe. She shares a personal story of a missed opportunity, and why real growth happens when we choose to engage with life and our businesses even when it’s uncomfortable.
Life, business, and creativity respond to our presence, our willingness to step in, and our willingness to make the first move.
