Ever find yourself trying to figure it all out—the team, the clients, the results, the systems—and end up frustrated instead? In this episode of ACTually, Lani explores how swapping “I have to fix this” for “I’m getting curious” can change everything.

She shares real stories from her coaching calls and her own business about how curiosity transforms frustration into innovation, pressure into peace, and judgment into opportunity. If you’ve ever been stuck in reaction mode, this conversation will show you how curiosity unlocks clarity and confidence again.

In This Episode:

• Why curiosity is the most underrated growth tool for entrepreneurs
• The difference between a fixed mindset and a curious mindset
• How judgment and curiosity can’t exist at the same time
• Real-life examples of how curiosity can change your team dynamics, marketing results, and mindset
• A step-by-step guide to practicing curiosity as a leadership habit

ACTion Steps:

1. Pause before reacting. Take a breath and give yourself space before deciding.
2. Ask open-ended questions. Instead of “Why isn’t this working?”, ask “What could this be teaching me?”
3. Reflect before deciding. Let the layers unfold before rushing to a solution.
4. Celebrate every bit of clarity. Every insight—big or small—is momentum in motion.
