Episode Summary:
Alison shares her journey from being a lawyer plagued with anxiety to discovering the power of 'maybe' and how this simple yet profound mindset shift transformed her life and career.
Throughout the discussion, Myrna and Alison explore how the fear of uncertainty limits people and how reframing one’s mindset can lead to a life filled with endless potential. They also touch upon the significant pressure women face to conform to societal norms and the liberating aspects of questioning and challenging these expectations through the lens of 'maybe'.
What You Will Learn:
- Embrace Uncertainty: The concept of 'maybe' helps individuals view uncertainty as a space for potential and growth rather than fear.

- Possibility in Crisis: Even amidst crises, such as job loss or personal upheavals, maintaining a 'maybe' mindset can open up new opportunities.
- Tools for Resilience: Simple practices like keeping 'maybe' cards or journaling can help manage daily stress and foster a positive mindset.
