In this episode, I'm sharing something that feels both exciting and vulnerable: the story of how I finally decided to start my YouTube channel.

This didn't happen overnight. For a long time, I let self-doubt, procrastination, and fear keep me stuck. I questioned whether I had anything useful to say, whether my voice really mattered, and whether putting myself out there would actually make a difference. If I'm being honest, it was easier to keep thinking about it than to actually do it.

Through conversations with my life coach and moments of reflection — including a message that kept coming up for me through oracle cards — I was reminded of something powerful: sometimes you don't need certainty, you just need courage. For me, that meant choosing to "step into the flame" and take a risk on a dream I've been holding close for years.

This episode is about more than starting a YouTube channel. It's about what happens when we stop waiting to feel ready, surrender to the process, and allow ourselves to create simply because it matters to us. The reference I make the actor that talks about writing a poem tearing it up into tiny pieces and throwing it away is Sir Ian McKellen.

If this conversation resonates with you, I'd love for you to listen, reflect, and share it with someone who might need the reminder that their voice matters too.
