I can tell you the exact day I stopped asking for permission. I remember it in my body. And I wish I could say that the clouds parted and everything got easier, that it felt like pure freedom. It did not, not at first. It felt like standing in a room full of people where everybody goes quiet and all...

What if your someday goals could happen this year instead? I sat down with executive coach, speaker, and creator of the Badass Planner, Janell Karst, and I'll tell you what I told her before we hit record: mark my words, everybody is going to want Janell on their stage and on their podcast, and I go...
