In this episode of the Maybe I Can Podcast, I talk about something I wrestle with regularly — impatience and the need to control outcomes.
When I decide I want something, I want it done immediately. And when progress feels slow, I feel anxious, behind, and frustrated. I share how I realized that my impatience is often anxiety in disguise — especially after seasons of life that felt out of control.
This year, I chose the word “steady” as my theme. Not slow. Not passive. But consistent without panicking.
In this episode, I share:
• Why control can feel like safety
• How productivity can become fear in motion
• The burnout that comes from forcing timelines
• What it really means to “release the stopwatch”
If you’ve been feeling behind or trying to rush your progress, this conversation is for you.
We’re not late. We’re not behind.
We’re exactly where we need to be.
Maybe we can trust that together.
