Real Talk with Barbie Barbie Wharton

Today we’re talking about how Perfect DOESN’T EXIST.  It’s literally not a thing.  So why do we spend so much time chasing after it, trying to be it, to smile and fake it?  Look around at the people you follow and admire.  Are they perfect?  No way. 
They try new things, put themselves out there, and make mistakes. I GUARANTEE they don’t give off that “perfect illusion”.  Perfect isn’t a thing.  If it were, it would be boring anyway.  And I definitely don’t like hanging out with boring people, no thanks.  Let’s get started. I’m so glad you’re here.
 
Topics Discussed:
Stephen Hawkings is a pretty smart guy We get to define our own lives We use other people as an excuse to not get started The mean girls don't matter Perfect is boring anyway

Today we’re talking about how to get started.  When you have a dream, a project or a task that seems just SO big you don’t even know where to begin. 

When the fear, the dreaded imposter syndrome or the overwhelm sets in, the way to do it is to START BY STARTING.  Get things set up the best you can, then trust in yourself and jump in with two feet because you deserve to be happy, and you deserve to bet on yourself.

In this podcast, we are going to talk about the real stuff that we’re all going through.  Not the bright shiny stuff we see on everyone’s feeds, but the gritty, messy, middle parts that need to be heard, to heal.  I have been through a lot in my life, particularly in the past few years and I want to talk about it.  I want to tell you about the stuff I have learned, so you feel like, hey!  She gets it!  You are not alone, and you are not the only one. 
I don’t care about all the pretty, fake stuff.  I care about leveling up, and helping you do the same.  Whatever “levelling up” means to you – whether that’s in business, performance or life in general, we’re going to talk about it.
Show notes, blogs and more coming soon.  Be sure to get on the mailing list to be the first to hear about new episodes and topics, I would love to get to know you too.
