#86 | Julie Taylor | "Be scared and do it anyway!"

from Journeys of Empowerment · host Michiel Sujeet Reith

In this episode, I connected with Julie Taylor 🐝, founder of Buzz Business Networking, community builder, connector and champion of human connection who is helping entrepreneurs realize they do not have to build their businesses alone.Julie grew up in the UK, built a long corporate career in banking and later moved to the Netherlands where she stepped into entrepreneurship. Along the way she experienced redundancy, started over in a new country, launched ventures before feeling ready and faced one of the most frightening moments imaginable when her husband suffered a sudden cardiac arrest. Through every chapter runs the same lesson: courage is not the absence of fear. It is taking the next step anyway.Deep dive talking points:👉🏾 Building community through connection: why none of us are meant to figure everything out on our own;👉🏾 Redundancy as a turning point: how losing certainty can become the push we would never give ourselves;👉🏾 Starting over in a new country: the challenges and opportunities that come with rebuilding from scratch;👉🏾 Asking for help: why reaching out is not weakness but one of the most powerful things we can do;👉🏾 Be scared and do it anyway: how action often comes before confidence, not after it!Empowering nuggets: 🙌🏾 Confidence is rarely the starting point. More often it grows because we were willing to take the first step;🙌🏾 The answers we need are often closer than we think. Sometimes all that is required is the courage to ask;🙌🏾 The more people we invite into our world, the more perspective, support and possibility become available;In Julie's words: 🙌🏾 “Be scared and do it anyway.”Listening to Julie reminded me that many of the moments that shape our lives arrive long before we feel ready for them. Whether it is starting a business, asking for help, stepping onto a stage or facing an unexpected crisis, the invitation is often the same. What might become possible if you stopped waiting for confidence and trusted yourself enough to take the next step?Connect with Julie:Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/julietaylorbuzz/ Website: https://buzzbusinessnetworking.eu Curious to learn more about the 60-day Clarity Intensify Trek?Visit ✨Journeys of Empowerment✨ | Let’s make space to see it clearly before you redesign anything!
