Have you ever felt a deep pull to go in a different direction with your life or career?

Do you have a secret desire to pursue something brand new but lack the courage to go for it?

If you have a deep call for something more but don't quite know where to begin, this episode is for you.

My guest, Emily-Jane Sarroff, shares how she made a major career U-turn just six months before completing her Masters degree in Architectural Design and how that HUGE decision enabled her to create a 6-figure business in just eight months.

We talk about:

  • The mindset shift you need to make to create the life you really want
  • Navigating the conflict between your heart and your head when it comes to big decisions
  • Weighing up the impact of decisions (or indecision) on your mental health
  • Giving yourself a permission slip to explore your passions
  • How to strengthen and tune into your intuition
  • Building self-trust so you stop doubting yourself
  • How to reframe adversity as an opportunity to upskill and improve
  • The value of learning to regulate your emotions to make quicker progress
  • Building resilience and self-confidence by taking action
  • Tapping your innate powerful and resourcefulness to achieve the success you desire
