🌴161. Act before your brain talks you out of it
Hey, thanks for pressing play today!
If you’ve ever hesitated before making a bold move — whether it’s sending a message, asking a question, or sharing an idea — then today’s episode is for you. I’m riffing on a rule from my netball days: the three-second rule . It turns out, this isn’t just about passing balls on court — it’s a rule that can apply to all areas of life and work.
I explore:
- How I learned the power of quick decisions playing netball
- What pickup artists, psychologists, and my amygdala have in common 🤯
- The science behind fear, hesitation, and decision paralysis
- A behind-the-scenes story of how I messaged a bunch of book publishers on LinkedIn — without having the perfect pitch
It’s short, practical, and might just give you the push to make your next move — quickly. Because the longer we wait, the less likely we are to act.
If it makes your stomach flip, there’s something juicy there. Go for it.
