Episode 320: : I Don’t Have My Life Together: 5 Ways I Can’t Adult
What if you don’t wake up at 5AM, you work in sweats, and still build an incredible life?
You don’t have to have it all together to be successful, impactful, or inspiring. I went from being a drinker to someone who hasn’t desired alcohol in eight years, and having writer’s block for a decade to writing a bestselling book with a 6-figure book deal. I don’t share this to brag, I want to expand what might feel possible for you.
In this episode, I’m sharing 5 of my personal idiosyncrasies (spoiler alert: cleaning’s not my thing!) and the parts of my life that don’t look polished. Because the truth is, none of that has anything to do with your genius.
IN THIS EPISODE:
Why sharing wins isn’t bragging and gives others permission to dream bigger
The real-life gap between my meticulous digital planning and the clothes on my floor
The $15,000 investment that cranked my business up to 6 figures in a year
Why I no longer force the 5 AM entrepreneur routine and what I do instead
Making decisions on pure gut vs. “logic” – is this irresponsible or genius?
REFLECTION QUESTION
Reflect on the parts of your life where you might look organized, successful, or put-together on the surface but struggle behind the scenes. Where are you faking it, and where do you genuinely feel competent or empowered?
“One of my first coaches had me celebrate my wins almost to the point of feeling super uncomfortable. I knew she would ask me this question on the call and I would blank out and be like, wait, what am I gonna share? Because I have that kind of inner critic where no matter what I do, there's still more to be done. No matter what I achieve, there's still someone achieving more, that kind of mentality. She really taught me to celebrate and anchor my wins and to be very outspoken about them and to really recognize that when women don't speak up about their wins and celebrate themselves, it's actually holding all women back. And when I look at some of the role models and the mentors that I had that helped me, they inspired me. They showed me what was possible.” - Karolina
“You don't have to have it all together to be a leader. You do not have to wake up at the crack of dawn. You don't have to do ice cold plunges. You do not have to run 10 miles. You do not have to do all these things that people say that you need to do in order to be great. I'm sure there's a time in your life where you could really nail it, but you do not have to be perfect to be a leader, to be a business owner, and to be a coach.” - Karolina
