What do you do when life isn’t moving as quickly as you’d hoped? When progress feels slow, self-doubt creeps in, and you’re not sure if you’re getting anywhere at all?
In this episode, I sit down with bestselling children’s author Abi Elphinstone to talk about resilience, rejection, creativity, ambition, and what it really means to keep showing up for the life you want. We explore the gap between where you are and where you want to be—and how to live well while you’re in it.
In this episode we discuss:
- How to respond when life isn’t going to plan
- Why rejection can be valuable feedback
- The power of curiosity and persistence
- Creating before consuming
- What success changes—and what it doesn’t
