Most of us know the feeling: hitting snooze, going through the motions, wondering if this is really it. This week on Not All Business, transformational coach Jayne Robinson joins from Australia, the show's first guest calling in from outside North America, to talk about the difference between your real inner voice and the fear-driven noise that tries to pass for it. Jayne knows the cost of staying comfortable firsthand. After walking away from a teaching career, she spent the last decade helping leaders, founders, and people at life's turning points break free from the patterns keeping them stuck, including her own move to Bali, then Costa Rica, where she finished writing her first book with a viper curled up a few feet from her bed. Her second book, The Freedom Experiment, is about getting out of what she calls the cage of comfort: a life that looks good on paper and quietly costs you your potential.
