What’s the greatest obstacle holding you back from your dream life? Is it money? Your job? Lack of opportunity? Funnily enough, the biggest obstacle holding us back is often ourselves.

We have pre-determined and conditioned ideas about who we are, what we are capable of and what we are worthy of. And sometimes it takes is a special person or situation to snap you out of your bubble and help you to see that this is all a fragment of your imagination.

What’s your inner critic saying?

Do you want to make a video, run a workshop or write a book? -I bet your inner critic says, “You don’t know enough to do that, who would want to watch/attend/read that?”
It’s easy to think our knowledge or skills aren‘t valuable to others. And that’s not surprising when you are good at what you do -it becomes second nature to you. But how long did it take you to learn these skills? Weeks, months, even years?

Like beauty, value is in the eye of the beholder. For example, I couldn’t think of anything easier than sewing a button onto a shirt, but you wouldn’t believe how many people have asked me for help with that.
You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to add value to this world.

I’m so inspired when I’m around people who get out there and make things happen, who live their dreams and create their own realities. More than anything I want to show up and consistently BE one of these people too.

So my best life advice? Be bold.

The greatest experiences of my life have stemmed from boldness and getting outside my comfort zone. -Moving to another state, studying new things, meeting new people, solo travelling, heck I moved to the other side of the world without knowing a single soul in my new city!

I invite you to BE BOLD this month, take inspired action toward your dreams and goals. Don’t let your inner-critic knock you down or say you’re not worthy.
Write that email, plan your next move, meet new people, reach out to someone who inspires you, try something that scares you, ask for help where you need it.

Don’t let potential embarrassment or insecurity hold you back any longer. The benefits of living your potential greatly outway the risks!

Be BOLD my dear friend, life will be so much more fun.
