How do you know if your perception of your value is actually valuable in the eyes of your clients/business partners?
For me, talking about the concept of “taking control of my life” is a healthy balance of personal accountability to steer my ship in the direction I want to go, with purpose, while also giving myself a lot of grace to be present in the here and now.

Our comfort zone sucks as it minimizes all of our potential, it keeps us stale and flat. If I had to think of a single word to describe our comfort zones, the word would be “boring”. Its boring to not grow, its boring to not challenge yourself and those around you.
