E277: Build Your Confidence by Failing Faster

In this episode, I answer Jacki Hayes' question from her podcast, Here's What I've Learned: How have you evolved as a business owner over the years?

I bet you'll find at least one nugget helpful, no matter if you're starting a new business, going back to school, or organizing your hall closet. Today I'm sharing how I build my confidence when imposter syndrome is high; how I collect real data to make better and faster decisions, and how I use simplicity to make it doable, especially by matching my energy levels. When I protect capacity and use my energy management skills, I show up better for both my family and my work.
