Episode 299: Showing Up for Yourself

April Price
About this episode

I’ve learned a lot from creating nearly 300 episodes of this podcast, but perhaps the most important is how to show up for myself and pursue the things I want even when my brain wants completely different things.

In this penultimate episode of the podcast, I’m sharing the best lessons that showing up for myself every single week has taught me. I hope they’ll help you identify your brain’s excuses and fears and give you the courage and tools to overcome them so you can get started and keep going when it feels hard. 

If it feels hard to show up for yourself when you “don’t have to” or “don’t want to,” I think this episode will be helpful and inspiring!
