Episode Description from the Publisher

In this episode of Notes from an Entrepreneur in Progress, I’m talking about one of the hardest parts of building something new: other people’s opinions.Why is it so painful when the people closest to us don’t support our business, our pivot, our dream, or the version of ourselves we’re trying to become? Why does skepticism from family and friends hit so much harder than random internet trolls? And how do we keep moving forward anyway?I unpack the primal brain wiring behind all of this, why people often react negatively when we step outside the “group,” and the mindset shifts that have helped me stop taking other people’s fear personally while still making room for the very human reality that…yeah, sometimes it still hurts.If you’re building a business, making a big life change, or trying to become someone different than the version people are used to, this episode is for you.Schedule a free discovery call:https://calendly.com/stephaniefinigancoaching/60-minute-coaching-consultGet in touch:Email: stephanie@stephaniefinigancoaching.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/lifecoachstephfini/Email List Sign Up: https://mailchi.mp/4a50337878b2/newsletter-list:
