In this episode, Paige Mitchell shares her journey of preparing for a TED Talk while navigating personal challenges and embracing vulnerability. Paige emphasizes the need to shift strategies and focus on small, manageable goals as she works towards her dreams.
Takeaways
In today’s episode, I’m pulling back the curtain and letting you into a raw and very real moment. I’ve been sitting in the tension between going for it and holding back—specifically around submitting my TED Talk application. Even with encouraging feedback and signs pointing toward yes, fear and doubt still creep in. What if it's not good enough? What if I’m not ready?
This is an honest reflection on what it means to feel vulnerable in the face of potential—and how I’m learning to shift from scarcity to abundance, from fear to trust.
You'll hear about:
The emotional rollercoaster of pursuing something big and meaningful
Why positive feedback doesn’t always quiet inner doubt
The difference between intuition and fear—and how to tell which one’s speaking
How I’m reframing the experience through an abundance mindset
A reminder that even when you feel stuck, you’re still growing
If you’ve ever felt paralyzed in the face of opportunity, this one’s for you. Let’s navigate that stuck place together—and remind ourselves that courage isn’t the absence of fear, it’s moving forward with it.
In this episode, Paige shares her journey towards preparing for a TEDx talk, focusing on her research into the concept of bucket lists and the steps she has taken to draft her speech. She discusses the importance of specificity in goal setting, her process of gathering feedback through a questionnaire, and her observations from watching various TED talks. Paige emphasizes the significance of community engagement and the iterative nature of speech writing as she refines her ideas and prepares for her presentation.https://www.youtube.com/@PaigeMitchellCoach
In this episode of Paige’s Lessons, I share how a movie I watched back in 2001 planted the seed for my lifelong dream of becoming a life coach and motivational speaker. That childhood spark is still alive—and now I’m taking bold steps to pursue a TEDx talk, even though I have no idea where this path will lead. Tune in for a candid, behind-the-scenes look at the early stages of chasing a dream and trusting the process, one lesson at a time
Welcome to a brand new season and the very first episode! I’m at the VERY beginning stages of manifesting a big dream: giving a TEDx talk. This episode is raw, real, and imperfect—because that’s exactly where I’m at. I’m sharing my vision as it unfolds and inviting you to follow along on the journey from idea to (hopefully) that red dot stage. If you’ve ever had a dream that felt too big or too early to talk about—this one’s for you. Let’s build it together.
