Can we talk about the fear of being judged for a moment?

Because this one piece of mindset has held me back more times than I'd like to admit.

I used to worry…

What if other photographers think I’m doing it wrong or what if they're judging me?

What if clients think my offer is silly?

What if someone rolls their eyes at my content?

What if other coaches judge me for coaching?

A new episode just dropped on the Pet Photographers' Journal where I interviewed Heather Lahtinen and this conversation was gold. She reminded me on the podcast: Even if that happens… nothing bad actually happens.

You might feel a bit uncomfortable. You breathe through it. And then, you move forward.

We don’t trade time and energy for the opinions of people who will never hire us. We show up for the ones who are ready to work with us.

I’d love to hear: Has fear of judgment slowed you down lately? What did you not do this week because of it?

Together, let’s normalise taking action anyway.
