What if the only thing standing between you and the success you crave… is you? In this episode, we sit down with Jessica Wright, ACC-certified Life & Career Development Coach for Leaders, to talk about saboteurs—those sneaky, fear-based thought patterns that hold entrepreneurs back from showing up confidently in their businesses. Jessica breaks down how to identify your inner saboteurs, the power of mental fitness, and how to move from burnout to bold action. You’ll walk away with tools to stop second-guessing yourself and finally move forward with purpose and clarity.
Quotes from the show
“What a saboteur is, the messages in your head that keep you from doing. What you wanna do, what you’re meant to do, what you feel called to do.”
-Jessica Wright
” What we can do is learn how to catch them and say, all right, fear has no place here right now. I am a strong, empowered person who can make good decisions with the information I have.”
-Jessica Wright
