Episode #31 is a short one, but it is poignant. We're going to be talking about learning resilience and overcoming perfection through standup comedy. 

Next week will be one year since I started performing standup comedy here in Tulum and it has been a wild ride with a lot of unexpected benefits.

I want you to think about ways that you can learn resilience too.

So I'm going to tell you a little bit about my standup journey, what I've learned and leave you with some takeaways about how you can think about creative outlets as a way to overcome your perfectionism and enjoy something that you never thought you might do before.

So strap in, you are in for a 9.5 Minute resilient ride

 I’m chatting with Kristina Nikolaj, a Breathwork Facilitator and a dynamic, open-hearted woman I had the pleasure of working with in 2020. 

This conversation you’re about to hear was a year ago just after she completed a coaching program with me, but her self-reflection and her breakthroughs around productivity and personal development are still poignant and worth discussing. 

Kristina gained clarity and confidence in her business and uncovered the things that were holding her back from launching her offering. A timeless challenge that many of us experience.

Since this conversation she’s gone on to scale her breathwork business and her content is some of my favorite on instagram, I love her no fluff, yet understanding approach to healing.

She’s also a total badass, not only does she train in Brazilian Jui Jitsu, she also competes and earned a blue belt in 2021, which is no small feat and she has her sights set on black belt by 40.

Join me as we dive into how creating structure and foundation can create confidence that helps to overcome the insecurities that will and do come up as an entrepreneur. 

So Strap in, you’re in for a inspiring and motivating ride

In this episode, I’m bringing back a conversation that I had this time last year with Massage Therapist, Entrepreneur & Investor, Hannah Diment after she took part in my UNRESTRICTED coaching program. 

When I first met Hannah, she was awesome at doing “fun” things and had a successful massage therapy practice, but had been avoiding making steps on a project that she’d secretly wanted to do for years.

I love her story. To the outside world she was carefree, fearless and talented, but she struggled with putting herself out there, doing the things that scared her, and finding a structure that supported her creative endeavors. This is something that I think most of us have felt at one point or another.

Over our work together, she realized the things she resisted the most, were often the things that brought her the most confidence, like tracking her time and looking at her finances. 

She used the tools I gave her to face her fears and use gamification and productivity to launch her first coaching program, which ultimately made her feel free to explore her dreams, and take action to make them a reality.

If you feel resistant to productivity, you’re not alone, give this one a listen to inspire you on the freedom that comes with structure.

Strap in, you’re in for a UNRESTRICTED ride
