Description

Have you ever felt stuck or stagnant? 

That restless feeling like you’re spinning your wheels, going nowhere fast, yet knowing deep down that you need to break free.

Stagnation isn’t just about a lack of progress; it’s a state of mind that can creep into any part of your life—your career, your relationships, or even your personal growth. But the good news? Feeling stuck is a signal, not a sentence.

If you’re hard on yourself, hold high expectations, and tend to overthink, this episode is for you. Brett shares tips and strategies to help you break free from your own head and get back on track. 

Listen in for insights on these topics and more:

  • How to create and leverage your own “minimum viable day”
  • Making friends with the monster and how to embrace our struggles
  • The power of failure simulations
  • Why using an “I Got This Done” list may be more helpful than your “To Do” list
