Send us Fan MailSTOP OVERTHINKING IT. JUST GO FOR IT.How many times have you had an idea… and overthought it to the point where you did nothing? You go around in circles….. Where do I start? What if it fails? Am I too old for this? and before you know it, the moment passes.And the idea…. it stays exactly where it started… in your head.In this episode, Michelle is joined by Jackie Baron, who after nearly two decades focused on raising her family, found herself ready to do something for herself. Somewhere between endless carpool runs and driving around very smelly boys, she had a lightbulb moment, and this time, she didn’t talk herself out of it.That idea became Neon Goat, a vegan, cruelty-free deodorant brand for tween and teenage boys.But this conversation isn’t really about deodorant.It’s about what happens when you stop overthinking and actually take that first step. Backing yourself in midlife, overcoming imposter syndrome, learning to leverage the skills you already have, and discovering that it’s never too late to reinvent yourself.IN THIS EISODE:• How Jackie turned an everyday frustration into a real business idea• The first practical steps she took to bring Neon Goat to life• The reality of imposter syndrome and starting something new in your 40’s• Why your past experience is more valuable than you think• The importance of taking action before perfection holds you backONE SMALL STEP TO TRY TODAY:If there’s an idea sitting in the back of your mind, stop trying to figure it all out. Instead, ask yourself: What’s one small step I could take this week?Research it. Talk to someone. Write it down. Just start. Because momentum doesn’t come from having all the answers, it comes from taking action.RESOURCES & LINKS:• Follow Jackie on Instagram to learn more about her amazing product - Neon GoatIf this episode resonates with you, I’d love to hear from you.
