[S7E5] Safety or success? Do you really have to choose?

Creative Freedom with Lisa Robbin Young

One of the common fears that comes up with my clients time and time again is becoming a target for haters, cancel culture and trolls. I mean, the bigger they are, the harder they fall, right? The idea of having to deal with negative attention does not feel expansive, fulfilling, or joyful. I mean, no one wants haters, and when you’ve already got a full plate, comments and attacks can be the straw that breaks your back.

It leaves them thinking they have to choose safety over the real success that they crave.

BUT… Do you really have to choose between playing it safe or taking risks all the time if you want to be successful? Entrepreneurship is inherently risky, but is the only path to success found by taking BIG risks all the time? Do you really have to choose between safety and security and being successful at the level that brings the income, impact, and influence that you know is meant for you?
