What is that thing that makes you feel icky in your life? What is that thing in your life you'd like to distance from?
To get rid of the discomfort of the comfort zone, we must take "turtle steps." One tiny step, a pause, and then another one. You don't wake up and sign up for the next Iron Man; you start training and go through the whole preparation process.
In this episode, the extraordinary Sue Willoughby visits us to discuss the importance of challenging whatever stands between us and our dreams, becoming fearless enough to try new things, and leaving our comfort zone toward our purpose. Sue is a Certified Equus Coach, a Real Estate Advisor, a Podcaster, and the Founder of Willoughby Coaching.
Throughout our conversation, you'll hear about Sue's beautiful connection with horses, her deep connection with these animals she considers spiritual guides, and the lessons we can learn from them. Sue also talks about her struggle with unworthiness in her youth, how horses can help us deal with self-esteem issues, shares practical tips to get out of our comfort zone, and much more.
