Why Taking Imperfect Action Is Actually Perfect

The Full Frontal Living™ Podcast with Lisa Carpenter

I have a very special guest today! When I hired Stacey Harris, founder and CEO of Uncommonly More, to support my podcast production, I was ready to make a bigger impact in the world. I love that she puts people first and uses her background in audio engineering and decades of digital marketing experience to lead her team in supporting hosts like me, helping me market with integrity while I share my message.

Even if you’re not an entrepreneur, you’ll want to listen to this episode. Stacey and I discuss taking imperfect action to get started, letting go of perfectionism and control to move forward regardless of what you do, data vs. feeling and the importance of staying present in your emotions, and when to know it’s time to ask for help. But if you do have or are about to launch your own podcast (or want to uplevel the one you have), then make sure you listen until the end. You’ll hear some amazing things!
