For the majority of my life, I've just chosen to compromise my own dreams in the hopes of not disappointing other people. In doing so, I've actually missed the opportunities to make the full impact that I know I'm meant to make. Where do you see yourself holding back in order to make other people more comfortable? In this episode, I\u2019m talking about the role that fear has played in my entrepreneurial journey and how I\u2019m working to overcome those moments of self doubt. I share a quote from Glennon Doyle that has really impacted how I view my own potential and the duty that I have to pursue my wildest and boldest ideas. I also list a few journal prompt questions that I\u2019ve been working with and get into how I\u2019ve been approaching this thought work.\xa0

EPISODE TIMELINE & DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

( 0:42 ) Welcome back to another episode of Powerhouse Women! Lindsey opens up the episode by asking listeners, \u201cWho are you most afraid of disappointing if you were to go after your dreams?\u201d

( 2:19 ) Lindsey says, \u201cI think a big reason why we hold back and we don't go all in and share really boldly is a fear of what other people are going to think about it.\u201d

( 5:40 ) Lindsey shares a quote from Glennon Doyle that really impacted her. \u201cEvery time you are given a choice between disappointing someone else and disappointing yourself, your duty is to disappoint that someone else. Your job throughout your entire life is to disappoint as many people as it takes to avoid disappointing yourself.\u201d

( 8:16 ) Lindsey shares moments when she has chosen to disappoint herself instead of other people.\xa0

( 10:39 ) Lindsey poses another reflective question for listeners. \u201cIf you knew that you could do anything and no one would be disappointed, if you could have anything and no one would be mad or jealous or triggered, what would you want?\u201d\xa0

( 11:26 ) Lindsey describes how this question has guided her in the past.\xa0

( 16:13 ) Lindsey says, \u201cThe times when I avoid taking that step for far too long because I'm afraid of disappointing someone, that almost becomes more uncomfortable than taking the step.\u201d\xa0

( 17:49 ) Lindsey closes out the episode by saying, \u201cWhen we do the bold thing, we actually change the world.\u201d
