The Difference Between Wanting and Believing
Jul 06, 2026The only thing separating you from what you want is belief.
Kris is in the car on her way to pick up her daughter from the airport during peak rush hour traffic on the Bay Area bridge. She hates that drive. She has anxiety about it. And yet she just knows she's going to do it. Not hopes. Knows.
That's the difference she's naming in this episode.
Most women spend their energy attached to why something is hard. Why they can't figure out where to start. Why they need to do all the research first. Why the goal is confusing. And somewhere in all that noise, they lose the simple fact: they already know what to do. They just don't believe it yet.
What you'll learn:
- The difference between wanting something and knowing it will happen
• Why belief is the only variable that actually matters
• What someone who already has what you want thinks about it (spoiler: different than you do)
• How your story about why it's hard is keeping you stuck
• What you would do differently today if you just knew it was happening
• What's changing in her world and who she's working with going forward
Stupid simple, she says. But simple means you actually have to do the uncomfortable thing.
