Welcome to another episode where Ulrike explores with Stacey Brass-Russell, Life and Business Coach, the transformative journey of harnessing your passion and turning it into a thriving venture. Today, we delve into the essential steps to make this dream a reality – from finding your joy to embracing expansion and overcoming self-doubt.
We all dream of doing what we love, but the journey requires taking a big leap in terms of visibility. Putting ourselves out there is crucial to attract and create a loyal client base. But how do we even begin to discover what truly lights us up and brings us the most joy? The answer lies in reflecting on the activities that energize us on a regular basis.
Many of us are held back by the fear of not knowing where to start. We constantly doubt ourselves, questioning whether we have what it takes. The key to breaking free from this stagnation is to create expansion. There's no right or wrong path; it's about embracing the unknown and forging ahead with confidence.
Discovering your passion is only the first step. It's not necessary to quit your current job immediately. Instead, change your perspective on it and use it to fund your passion and future business. You don't need a million certifications or a PhD to get started; you only need to be a little further along than someone who can benefit from your expertise.
As entrepreneurs, starting is everything. You must gather data and insights from experience, and that requires being out there, doing and speaking about what you love. The fear of speaking about ourselves can be daunting, but it's through networking and engaging with others that we learn what works and attracts the right people.
Looking back, the most vital lesson is that you must take that first step, even if it feels scary or uncertain. Embrace the challenges and believe that you are worthy and capable of success. Remember, until you put yourself out there, you won't gain the reflections and feedback needed for growth.
So, aspiring entrepreneurs, let's embark on this empowering journey together. Embrace expansion, start before you feel ready, and remember that there's no right or wrong in this process.
