Are you stuck in the "maybe" mindset, teetering on the edge of your dreams but never fully committing? In this eye-opening episode, we're tackling this subtle but deadly trap of "maybe" – the one word that slowly drains life out of our dreams and goals.
As black women, we often find ourselves wrestling with the idea of quitting our goals, not realizing that we're caught in a cycle of indecision fueled by cultural expectations and internalized beliefs. I'll guide you through the origins of this pattern, exploring whether it's fear of failure, success, or an ingrained sense of obligation that's holding you back. We'll dive into the concept of self-determination and how years of marginalization have chipped away at our ability to trust ourselves and make empowered choices.
This isn't about shaming or changing your thoughts; it's about recognizing the mental exhaustion of indecision and how it saps the energy that could be used for productive work. Get ready to confront the "maybe" mindset head-on, and embrace the freedom of self-permission to pursue your goals relentlessly.
And stay tuned until the end for an exciting announcement!
