Some days you wake up feeling like everyone else has it figured out and you're the only one barely holding it together. In this honest solo riff, Jay Schwedelson shares what has actually been running through his head lately, from self-doubt and negative self-talk to the tiny brave moves that quietly changed his career and life. He unpacks how being grateful to your past self, brave for just 10 seconds, and kind to your future self can shift how you show up this year without needing some huge reinvention.ㅤBest Moments:(00:16) Jay admits he is just as full of doubts and mental noise as everyone else and calls out how invisible most people's struggles really are.(02:18) The question that reframed everything for him: what are you grateful your past self dared to do that makes your life better today?(04:30) The behind-the-scenes story of COVID panic, payroll stress, and the walk with his wife that pushed him to finally launch Guru Conference.(06:45) Why you do not need a massive life overhaul, you just need to be brave for 10 seconds to send the message, start the convo, or take the next step.(07:55) Using those 10 seconds of bravery in your personal life, from saying hi to someone you are drawn to, to opening doors to an entirely new chapter.(09:15) Reframing the new year away from catastrophic thinking and into a quieter pact with your future self to try, stumble, and still keep going.ㅤCheck out Jay’s YOUTUBE Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@schwedelsonCheck out Jay’s TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@schwedelsonCheck Out Jay's INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/jayschwedelson/
