How To Trust Yourself Again
Hi there,
Last week was the debut of the Advanced Adulting video podcast on YouTube. I LEARNED A LOT about TRUST in my conversation with my first guest, Sara Schulting Kranz.
Specifically, I learned about trusting yourself... again.
Trusting other people once you've been betrayed, hurt, or disappointed is tough.. but sometimes trusting YOURSELF is just as hard. Especially the older we get.
We all have made mistakes and poor choices, hell, even Frank Sinatra said, "Regrets, I've had a few." And when that happens and you're faced with making your next move, taking a brave new step, or trying something you've never done before... it's scary, and we can easily doubt ourselves.
This first episode is GOLD. I invite you to watch the FULL episode here on YouTube.
Below, 👇 I've linked a few important CLIPS and parts of the episode you'll want to check out.
My first guest was a woman who lost EVERYTHING and, as a single mom of 3 boys, reinvented herself and started from scratch... FAST FORWARD a few short years, and she has become one of the premier outdoor adventure guides (having never done anything like this before), hosting retreats for executives, sports teams, and women seeking a life change to the bottom of the Grand Canyon, Paddleboarding 4 miles out into the Pacific Ocean, and on top of 14,000 ft mountains. But she didn’t start that way. In this conversation, you will learn how to focus your energy, trust yourself, and embrace the adventure of becoming the best version of YOU in your 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond.
