    #393 How to close the know-do gap
    Apr 2 2024

    This week, Helen and Sarah talk about the knowing-doing gap. This is when you know what you should, could or want to do but you still don't take the action that you need to. They discuss how this gap can create cognitive dissonance and lead to us feeling frustrated at work. To close the gap, they share practical ways you can change your behaviour, work through your blockers and get closer to the outcomes you want.

Down-to-earth, realistic, humorous...

...is just some of the ways I'd describe Helen and Sarah. Their content is *quality in bite-size achievable sessions* and I've had a chance to apply some of their advice. If you want practical guides that meet you where you are in your career journey, then you have to listen to these wonderful ladies. They clearly put their heart and soul into making others' journies less daunting.
