How to Keep Going When Your Dream Feels Impossible
from The Courage to Live a Big Life · host Susie DeVille
In a tiny Boston apartment, I once held two conflicting beliefs at the same time: my dream of becoming a published author felt completely impossible, yet somehow inevitable. A wall of rejection letters can look like failure. Or it can become a monument to courage. Rejection after rejection was simply proof that I was still in the arena. That tension is where creative courage lives. When doubt collides with belief, we experience friction. But friction can sharpen our questions, challenge our assumptions, and open doors we never knew existed. While the space between where we are and where we want to be is often uncomfortable, it is also enormously fertile. In this episode of The Courage to Live a Big Life, we dive into this messy, uneasy, and beautiful space. Don't fear the tension between doubt and belief. Let it deepen your work and lead you toward your next right step. The breakthrough we seek appears the moment we stop demanding certainty and become willing to discover what comes next.
