How to Stop Waiting and Start Doing

Episode 94

In today’s episode, Courtney dives into a theme that came up repeatedly with her clients this week: wanting to make a change, but not actually doing it.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

Why women often put themselves last—and how our “primitive brain” keeps us stuck in waiting mode.
The myth of perfect timing: Why “when things slow down” is never the real answer.
The role of resistance: Why even the things you deeply want will feel hard in the moment.
How to create a compelling why that excites you enough to overcome obstacles.
Practical strategies to move from intention to action:
- Decide exactly when you’ll do the thing.
- Anticipate the excuses and resistance in advance.
- Take decisions off your plate ahead of time to make follow-through easier.
Real-life client stories on wanting to create more art, grow businesses, or get healthier—and the mindset shifts that helped them take action.
Courtney’s own example of finally updating her business website after two and a half years of delay, and how following her own advice helped her stop waiting.

Key Takeaway

Wanting something isn’t enough. To actually do it, you need a clear why, a plan for resistance, and small daily actions that build momentum. The good news? You don’t have to wait for a milestone or the “perfect time.” You get to decide—today—that this is your next chapter.
