from Completely Complete · host Akeh Aghogho
This episode is a compassionate but firm reminder that slowing down is not the same as failing.In this conversation, I speak directly to anyone who started the year with big plans but now feels behind, discouraged, or ashamed because January didn’t go as expected. I share my own experience of fear, avoidance, and almost giving up on myself especially around career growth and how I learned that pausing does not erase purpose.We unpack:* The pressure January places on our sense of worth.* Why the “I’m a failure” mindset keeps us stuck.* How fear disguises itself as procrastination and overthinking.* Practical ways to separate facts from feelings.* How to rebuild momentum with small, consistent actions.This episode is an invitation to release shame, stop punishing yourself, and return to your goals with grace and courage because progress isn’t about speed, it’s about taking the right steps in the the right direction no matter how small.Get me eBook: I wish Someone Had Told me: Thirty Lessons I Learnt in 30 Years on Selar: https://selar.com/m/ThekingswomanFollow me on all my social media handles:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thekingswoman_Twitter: https://x.com/thekingswoman_Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/akeh37TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thekingswoman_Linktree: https://linktr.ee/thekingswomanPintrest: https://pin.it/67roUgDDW#TheCompletelyCompletePodcast #AghoghoAkeh
