Episode Description
If you feel stuck, scared to make a change, or frustrated that you’re not following through on the ideas and dreams in your heart… this episode is for you.
Today, Sheri unpacks the real reason ambitious, successful mid-career women freeze when they feel called to something more. It’s not lack of clarity. It’s not motivation. And it’s definitely not time management.
Using research from Harvard Business Review, Duke University, McLean Hospital, and the KPMG Women’s Leadership Study, Sheri reveals what’s actually holding you back — fear, doubt, emotional avoidance, and the confidence gap.
You’ll learn:
✓ Why 95% of ideas never make it past the starting line
✓ The Attitude Wheel: the cycle every woman hits when starting something new
✓ What really happens at 6:00 — fear, freeze, distraction, and self-doubt
✓ The difference between clarity and confidence (and why clarity alone isn’t enough)
✓ Why successful women avoid career-changing risks (KPMG study)
✓ How to move from 6:00 to 9:00 faster, with less spiraling
✓ What Sheri sees in her clients at the end of her 10-week program — and why most stall
✓ The new Calling Creator Collective™ and how it supports you through fear and follow-through
If you’ve been feeling called to a new direction but can’t seem to take the next step, this episode will help you understand why — and give you the pathway to move forward with confidence.
