238: Five Things I'm Embarrassed I Had to Relearn (and What They Taught Me About Leadership, Money, and Showing Up)

238: Five Things I'm Embarrassed I Had to Relearn (and What They Taught Me About Leadership, Money, and Showing Up)

This one is a little raw.
A little unpolished.
And very real.

After batch-recording months of episodes and stepping into a new season of leadership, I sat down at the mic for the first time this year and realized something:

The most helpful thing I could share right now isn't a strategy or framework.

It's the truth.

Because even 10 years into business…

even 200+ podcast episodes later…

even as Managing Director of The Restoration Project

I'm still relearning lessons I swore I already knew.

In this solo episode, I'm walking you through five things I'm honestly a little embarrassed I forgot in 2025 — from avoiding my finances (again) to chasing perfection, rushing relationships, overpacking my calendar, and holding back my voice.

But here's the thing:
Embarrassment usually means growth is happening.

So if you've ever thought, "Shouldn't I be better at this by now?" — this episode is for you.

You're not behind.
You're becoming.

What You'll Hear in This Episode
  • Why your business finances are a gift (not something to avoid)

  • The perfectionism + imposter syndrome spiral in new leadership roles

  • How speed and efficiency quietly erode meaningful relationships

  • The "Big Three" method that's helping me reclaim my time

  • Why sugarcoating your voice actually creates more harm than clarity

  • And the truth: you're allowed to relearn lessons at every age and stage
