    Jess's Tips for Tackling Big Projects with Confidence

In this episode, Jess walks you through what she does to pull off big projects with confidence. * Controlling what you can control so you can deal with what you can't * The power of documentation and socialization * Getting comfortable moving forward without permission and 100% of the necessary information * How to seek support when you're stuck, and why you shouldn't be afraid to "raise the red flag."
