Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedEver find yourself in the “messy middle”—that in-between phase where success feels just out of reach, and you’re questioning everything? You’re not alone. On the latest episode of Successfully Chaotic, I dig into the reality behind entrepreneurship and growth—and spoiler alert, it’s not always as glossy as the highlight reels make it out to be. 💡 Here are three key takeaways for anyone navigating challenging transitions: The Magic Happens in the Messy Middle: Don’t discount the space between the big wins; those unglamorous, exhausting days are where growth and clarity are forged. You Don’t Have to Be Finished to Be Worthy: Progress isn’t about perfection. You’re becoming every step of the way, even when it feels unclear or uncertain. Keep Showing Up as Your Real Self: Authenticity—showing up as the real you—creates the deepest impact (and attracts the right opportunities and relationships). If you’re currently feeling stuck or unsure, remember: you’re not behind, you’re becoming. ✨ This is your permission to get messy, keep going, and be unapologetically YOU. Let’s keep supporting each other through the chaos!

1 S12 E1 Why You Don’t Need Approval to Chase Your Dreams 11:06
11:06 Play Later Play Later Lists Like Liked11:06
Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedOn the latest episode of Successfully Chaotic , I dove deep into the powerful truth that no one will magically hand you permission to live authentically or chase your dreams. For years, I waited—seeking approval, over-explaining my choices, and letting others' doubts become my own. But when you realize the only approval you truly need is your own, everything changes. Here are my top 3 takeaways for anyone feeling stuck: Permission is Not Required: You don’t need anyone’s validation to start a business, pivot your career, or live authentically. Trust yourself to lead your own life. Discomfort Leads to Growth: Every time you choose yourself and take action (even if it’s scary or awkward), you get stronger. Real breakthroughs happen outside your comfort zone. Surround Yourself with Expanders: Seek out those who inspire you, push you to dream bigger, and remind you of what’s possible—rather than people who project their fears onto you. If you’re still waiting for a sign that it’s time to choose yourself… consider this it. 💫 Are you ready to be unapologetically YOU?
