Beyond Goals: Listening to What You Need
As I kick off Season 11 of the Liz Career Coaching Podcast, I’m inviting you to slow down and pause before rushing into new goals, plans, or decisions.
A new year often brings pressure to do more, achieve more, and figure everything out quickly. In this episode, I share why I believe clarity doesn’t come from pushing harder it comes from self-reflection and intentional pauses. I talk about how journaling helps me recognize when my goals start to feel fuzzy or when I’m chasing things without really understanding why.
I also share a personal and vulnerable story about stepping outside my comfort zone. It reminded me what it feels like to be a beginner again, to face fear and ego, and to choose growth anyway.
This episode is a gentle reminder to give yourself permission to try, even when you don’t feel ready.
Episode Highlights
- Why I believe pausing and self-reflection are just as important as goal-setting
- The discomfort of being a beginner and why it’s actually a good thing
- How fear and ego can quietly keep us stuck
- Why confidence comes after action, not before
- A reminder to give yourself permission to try...big or small
