Episode Description

How do you manage your ‘Yes, but…’ brain?

You know the one. It hears something it knows makes sense, but it doesn’t really want to listen in the moment.

So you turn your back on something that might make life (and business) easier for you because maybe:

You’re focused on something else
Making a change feels too hard
You’re so invested in a particular route that you don’t want to turn back
You don’t have enough headspace to pause and think, so you keep on keeping on regardless

If any (or all) of this sounds familiar, this week’s episode of Taking It Personally is for you.

Join me on the show and let’s talk about showing your ‘Yes, but…’ brain who’s boss!
