The Risk of Playing Small: Why It’s Time...

Comfort feels safe, until one day you realize it was the riskiest place to be.

Are you stuck in a routine, saying yes to what's familiar while your confidence and excitement slips away? You feel like your career or business is just going through the motions. You are falling into the hidden trap of comfort.

It happens slowly….like snow building up flake by flake, until suddenly, you see how much you’ve settled. The cost is high: lost opportunities, faded passion, and shrinking influence. But you can break free and reignite that spark by embracing discomfort and taking action.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

1. How comfort can quietly drain your growth. Learn how to spot it before it takes over your life, career, or business
2. Ways to identify if your current environment is holding you back, so you can choose circles that fuel your biggest goals
3. How to push past your "identity lag," so you don't downsize your dreams to fit in
4. Signs that your voice is shrinking and how to reclaim it, so you ask better questions, contribute, and get noticed
5. Simple ways to step outside your comfort zone regularly, so new opportunities start coming your way

Stop mistaking comfort for security! Shake things up and discover what you’re really capable of.
