Why you want to do everything, so you do nothing (guide to get unstuck)

Want to do everything, so you end up doing nothing? If you’re multi-passionate, ambitious and full of potential but can’t seem to commit to one path, this episode is for you. In this episode of Wild Lily, I share my own story of building a career in healthcare, starting and quitting YouTube channels, two failed businesses and countless paths I almost took, and why I finally left my job to become a full-time coach. We’ll go beyond the famous fig tree analogy from Sylvia Plath’s The Bell Jar and break down the 5 types of stuckness that keep ambitious people paralyzed: too many options, comfort, fear, perfectionism and shame. For each one, you’ll learn how to get unstuck. You’ll learn: 1. Why keeping your options open can keep you stuck 2. How to tell whether a desire is truly yours 3. How to build self-trust through small, consistent action 4. Why you need a compass, not a map (from Designing Your Life) 5. How to move through the shame of wanting a bigger life 🌿The Year-End Life Audit: a live virtual 90-minute workshop Before you set another goal, look honestly at the year you just lived. Together, we’ll audit your life, write one clear pact for the next 90 days, plan for your biggest obstacle, and put your first step in your calendar. Includes The 90-Day Life Design Workbook.
