#164: Are You a “Should” Kind of Person?

We can’t let what we “should” do get in the way of what we “can” do.

We’ve all added many “should’s” to our to-do list. Whether that’s social plans, a strategy that our friends or peers are following, and even limiting beliefs that we hold.

Ironically, I recorded this week’s episode almost a week later than I usually do. So many opportunities unlocked this past week – from launching the next cohort of The Lighthouse Collective, as well as my new passion project, AND still working through the final renovations of my rental property.

So when it came to recording this episode, I’ve been pushing it off because I can’t find a long enough pocket of time to record the length of episode that I always do. I filled my head with so many “should’s’ – I should record soon, I should make it a long episode, etc.

And then I looked at today’s topic and I laughed.

I sat myself down and reminded myself that I can be okay with a shorter episode this week and the episode will be just as valuable as it is meant to be… and immediately I felt the stress leave. Instead of stressing over how short the episode will be, I chose to embrace how I can record the episode right now exactly where I am.

This is a reminder to me and to you – drop your “should’s”, drop your expectations, and watch the pressure drop on its own.

If you want to hear more on this topic, check out this week’s podcast episode.

On the episode, I cover:

How to handle stress and overwhelm
Feelings of resentment towards your business
How to handle the pressure of social media

I believe in you – you are doing way better than you realize!
