18. What’s the Worst Case Scenario

Ashlie Molstad
About this episode

What if I had never decided to go for it? What if I listened when I told myself I wasn’t good enough? What if I listened when others told me it wasn’t gonna work? What if I had quit before the magic happened?

 

….Then I never would be living the life I am living today. And today’s life is better than even my biggest, scariest, wildest, most holy-shit-wouldn’t-that-be-everythinggggg-if-that-happened dreams.

 

Worst case scenario isn’t that things don’t work out. Worst case scenario is you don’t even give yourself the chance to blow your own [and everyone elses] damn mind.

 

In today’s episode I share with you how to avoid the worst case scenario so you can get on with your better-than-you-ever-imagined part of life.

 

See you inside 💥
