You Don't Need the Whole Bridge

from Dethroning Your Inner Critic Podcast

What if the uncertainty you're feeling isn't a sign that something is going wrong—but simply what it feels like to be in the space between where you've been and where you're going? In this episode, Joanna explores why our minds are so desperate to see the entire path before we're willing to trust where we're headed. Your automatic identity wants certainty. It wants proof. It wants to know exactly how everything is going to work out before you take the next step. But life doesn't work that way. Using the metaphor of a bridge that reveals itself as you walk it, Joanna shares how trying to predict and control the future can rob us of the peace, joy, and possibility available in our lives right now. You'll learn why discomfort and uncertainty don't necessarily mean you're on the wrong path, how your Default Operating System keeps pulling you toward certainty and control, and what becomes possible when you stop demanding the whole bridge and begin trusting the next step. You don't need to know exactly where everything is going. You just need enough of the bridge to take the next step.
