About this listen

Thanks for listening to Episode 32 of The Take Action Toolkit.

If you’ve enjoyed this episode, don’t forget to leave a rating and review on your preferred podcast platform. Or share it with a friend who’s navigating change and could use a reminder of their own resilience.

This episode is for you if:

  • You’re feeling out of your comfort zone and questioning whether you’re on the right path

  • You’re facing challenges that make you want to give up, even though something in you still wants to keep going

  • The discomfort is overwhelming and you’re unsure how much longer you can stick it out

  • You’re looking for a personal story of resilience to remind you why staying a little longer might change everything

In this episode, I dive into:

  • The moment I sat crying on the floor of my bedroom in China, ready to walk away and the decision that changed the course of my life

  • How I navigated extreme discomfort and slowly built the resilience and confidence I didn’t know I had

  • Why giving myself “just two more weeks” was a powerful turning point that led to eight years abroad, a Mandarin-taught degree and the personal growth that followed

  • The life lessons I carry with me today, about asking for help, rebuilding belief after setbacks and choosing to grow even when it feels easier to quit

Work with me + stay connected:
