When we’re building new skills or stepping into a bigger version of ourselves, we often prepare for the task ahead—but not the emotions that come with it.
In this short video, we share a key insight: our ability to regulate uncomfortable feelings like awkwardness, frustration, or fear is what often makes the real difference in whether we grow… or stall. We also give you one simple tool to try next time you hit an emotional roadblock.
If you're on a growth journey, this one's for you.
