In this third episode of The Aligned Expansion Series, I dive into one of the biggest myths holding wellness practitioners back: the idea that you must feel ready before you take action.If you’ve ever waited for more confidence, more clarity, more time, more practice sessions (even after you’re certified!), or just “a better moment”… this episode will shift everything for you.I share personal stories—from launching my first offers to teaching my first classes to being interviewed for the local newspaper—and how none of these pivotal steps happened when I felt ready. They happened because I chose to move anyway.You’ll learn why readiness isn’t a feeling—it’s a decision—and how action is actually what creates the clarity and confidence you’re waiting for.✨ In this episode, I cover:Why “ready” is often just fear in disguiseHow waiting for guarantees keeps you smallThe true role of discomfort in aligned growthThe 3 truths I rely on when I don’t feel readyHow to take your next step with courage (not certainty)This is your reminder that the version of you living your next-level life didn’t wait until she felt ready. She decided. She said yes.If you want support taking aligned action and expanding your capacity—before you feel ready—join me inside Grow a Thriving Practice → jillianfaldmo.com/workwithme

163. Stretching without Snapping
In this episode of The Aligned Expansion Series, I’m talking about the art of stretching yourself without snapping—growing your capacity while keeping your nervous system grounded and supported. I share a recent real-life stretch: saying yes to a local newspaper interview that brought up nerves, the fear of rejection, and my deep-rooted fear of being misunderstood. But on the other side of that stretch? A double rainbow… and the reminder that the benefits of expansion often outweigh the risks.I dive into how I approach risk-taking, why being willing to fail is essential for entrepreneurs, and how I personally recognize the difference between a healthy stretch and pushing myself into dysregulation. This episode is your permission slip to take aligned risks, feel your feelings, and grow your capacity one courageous step at a time.✨ In this episode:How to stretch outside your comfort zone without overwhelming your nervous systemMy personal story about being interviewed for the local paperWhy “I’m willing to risk failure” is one of my core entrepreneurial mindsetsWhat healthy expansion feels like (and what snapping feels like)How I take aligned action while letting go of the outcomeIf you want support growing your practice with grounded confidence, come join me inside Grow a Thriving Practice: jillianfaldmo.com/workwithme
