Go Ahead and Jump: Grow Your Wings On the Way Down
Ever feel like you're standing at the edge of a cliff—creatively, professionally, or personally—wondering if you’re actually ready to take the leap?
Here’s the truth:
You’re not.
And that’s exactly why you should jump anyway.
In this episode of Direct Your Life, I break down why waiting until you're ready is just a dressed-up excuse for procrastination. Some of your greatest growth will never come from playing it safe—but from making bold choices before you feel totally prepared.

🚀 2 Big Takeaways From the Episode:
1. Courage Comes First—Not Confidence
You won’t magically feel confident before doing the hard thing. Confidence is the result of jumping in and figuring it out as you go. You don’t wait to have wings—you grow them on the way down.
“Most people try to research their way out of fear. What they need is momentum.” – Tony Suriano
2. Your Future Self is Built Through Risk
Every major move I’ve made—whether acting in The Irishman, moving cities, or launching Creatives Unleashed—happened because I said yes before I was ready. Growth loves a little chaos.
