The Shortcut to Taking Action
The Book Every Creative Needs to Come Alive Again
There’s a shift that happens when you say these three words: MOVE FORWARD MESSY.
This three-word freedom phrase helps you unclench, exhale, and finally take action toward the life you want. It’s permission to play, invite in the cringe, move before you feel ready, and show up imperfectly, which creates more joy, ease, and flow in your life. And who doesn't want that? LOL.
The Confidence Shortcut is the roadmap.
It helps you figure out what lights you up.
It helps you name the dream so you can claim the dream.
It helps you interrupt and level up the beliefs that support the dream.
It helps you start taking action NOW through the Courage Quest.
It's eight weeks of daily discomfort for
big breakthroughs!

For decades, I avoided anything that triggered fear.
But when a health crisis forced me to finally get curious about what was happening in my brain, and why fear was stopping me, I began to wake up.
I realized that fear held power IN ME not over me, and by learning to feel it and move WITH IT, I was able to feel everything. My emotions came back online. My voice grew louder.
This book is the roadmap of everything I discovered while learning to feel it all.
