#31 You Already Know What You Want. This Is What’s Missing
2026-06-03
This episode about one of the many layers I work on with my clients. The work I do with you can be done alone and this is one idea that we work on together- courage and gumption. Both are necessary when we’re growing, changing, and trying to build a life that feels like ours.
I talk about the difference between courage and gumption and how they work together. This isn’t about big, loud bravery. It’s about the quiet moments where you choose to listen to yourself, say the thing, take the step, or move toward something that feels uncertain. The life you want is often on the other side of those small, honest, courageous decisions and learning to trust yourself enough to act on them.
Key Themes:Courage versus gumptionGrowth requires both honesty with yourself and willingness to actYou can build courage through small, everyday momentsNot all courage is loudFear and anxiety don’t disappear, but courage can grow alongside themThe things you’re drawn to are not random. They’re pointing you somewhereYour life changes when you start acting on what you already knowWork With Me:If this is the kind of work you’re in right now, I offer integrative counseling and coaching that helps you sort through all of it.
My approach is personal, flexible, and built around you. We look at your life as a whole and work through layers to piece it back together in a way that feels aligned and honest.
If you’re interested in working together, you can reach out to learn more or book a session. I’d love to connect.

Life Notes is a voice-note–style podcast for thoughtful people in the middle of figuring things out about themselves, their relationships, and what really matters.
Hosted by Megan Marie, Life Notes offers short, honest reflections that feel more like a voice memo to a friend than a performance. These are the things that don’t make it to Instagram. The unfiltered thoughts, soft questions, and little bits of clarity that show up while brushing your teeth, walking to the coffee shop, or sitting in the sun.
It’s for the ones who feel deeply, who overthink everything, who are learning to trust themselves again. For the ones outgrowing old versions of themselves and soft-launching new ones. For anyone craving a moment of quiet honesty in a loud world.
There’s no theme music or polished advice. It's just a place to slow down and listen in. Always raw and always real.
