In this episode…

As they start, Natalie shares the scariest ask has ever been when asking for herself.  It is getting others to see the vision she has and join in the vision she has.  She leads with empathy, and asks “what does success look like to you” in hopes they are aligned and can work together. 

Natalie and Stephanie have a lengthy discussion on failures, the fear of rejection and how to rejoice with getting “no” knowing it leads to bigger and better things.

In addition to failures, they talk about resilience and flexibility.  Without those, success will not be easily achieved.

Lastly, Natalie shares she loves to say “yes” to the asks she gets but now asks herself if she can make a difference, can she help people, and still live her purpose.  If she can confidently say yes to these three questions, she can say yes.
