Episode 33: When You're Doing Everything Right and Nothing's Working Yet
Description
After a year of pursuing my dream with seemingly no traction, I've discovered I'm not broken but simply navigating the difficult middle phase of success. This episode reveals the truth about what happens between starting a dream and achieving breakthrough – that messy, confusing middle where real growth happens unseen.
• Enrolled in a speaker academy and invested in my dream without proof it would pay off
• Published my first book but learned that good content requires equally good marketing
• Launched a crowdfunding campaign for my second book that didn't reach its goal
• Started this podcast as a way to speak even when no one was inviting me to stages
• Returned to storytelling and finally began building a responsive community
• Received an unexpected LinkedIn message from a marketing agency that saw potential in what I was building
• Integrated my existing philosophy into a cohesive brand called "Delay the Binge"
• Learned that changing direction doesn't mean starting over but refining what works
Right now, I'm looking for one brave soul to join my Delay the Binge program for free coaching in exchange for recording the experience. If that's you, fill out the form here in the show notes. Your transformation may not feel inspiring yet because you're still in it – the middle isn't where you break, it's where you build.
