Monday Morning Pep Talk: Do The Thing","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":548,"description":"What's the difference between a dream that changes your life and one that just lives forever in your Notes app? That gap might be smaller than you think — and it starts with one risky step.\n\nWe're at the midpoint of 2026, and it's time to stop waiting for the \"right\" time. This week's short pep talk is a challenge to every woman who knows what she wants but keeps pushing her timeline out. Whether you're sitting on a business idea, a creative project, or a life change you've been planning \"for someday\" — this one's for you.\n\nHIGHLIGHTS\n\nThe most dangerous place for a dream to live is in your Canva account or your journal — not because it's safe there, but because it can be perfect there\nKeeping a dream in the \"no-risk zone\" means it never has to face the messy, criticized, real world — which also means it never gets to be real\nYou don't need the whole plan. You just need one bold, stomach-flipping action step\nLong timelines feel realistic but they're often just fear wearing sensible shoes — shorten it\nIf you don't have clarity yet, that's okay: keep moving, keep experimenting, and release the timeline until the vision becomes clear\nOnce you do have clarity, taking risky action isn't optional — it's your responsibility\nThe #1 regret of the dying isn't failure. It's not trying.\n\nCHAPTERS\n\n0:00 – Midsummer Pep Talk\n1:03 – Dreams Stuck on Hold\n2:31 – Danger Zone Perfection\n3:35 – Take One Risky Step\n4:05 – Shorten the Timeline\n5:35 – When Clarity Is Missing\n6:11 – Messy Middle Momentum\n7:29 – Regret and Courage\n8:20 – Do the Thing Today\n\nRESOURCES MENTIONED\n\nThe Top Five Regrets of the Dying by Bronnie Ware\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Top-Five-Regrets-Dying-Transformed/dp/140194065X\n\nWant to learn more?\nThe Thread\n\nBe sure to follow me @audradinell on Instagram and LinkedIn\n\nThis show is part of the ICT Podcast Network.\n\nDisclaimer: we may receive a small commission on any products purchased through the links used in this episode.
