    The Dark Night of The Soul | Paige Goldstein

    In this episode: Paige Goldstein left a dream job in tech sales with no plan, walked straight into the hardest months of her life, and came out the other side with a business built on her real self.

Paige on the months after the leap. "The opposite of depression is soul expression." "My mentor says that yoga is a subtraction, not an addition. That's also how you find your true self. Taking away layers, not adding more." "Not changing is a choice. If you're staying, you're choosing to stay in known misery." "Use fear as a compass." Fear points the way instead of stopping you. "You feel ready through doing it." You don't wait to feel ready, you start. Mentioned in the episode The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle. Paige saw him speak live in October 2023. Tiny Experiments by Anne-Laure Le Cunff. The book Ken keeps recommending: design a small test instead of thinking yourself in circles. The True Self quiz.
