Growth isn’t always glamorous. Sometimes it feels like frustration, overwhelm, or like you’re coming completely undone. But let me tell you, legend—that’s exactly how you know you’re expanding.

As you go through the Concept to Course program, you’ll hit moments that challenge you, moments that feel messy or even impossible. That’s not a sign to stop. It’s a sign that transformation is happening.

The Discomfort of Expansion

How do you react when things get tough? Maybe you feel like shutting down, throwing your laptop out the window, or doubting if you’re cut out for this. Guess what? Your students will feel the same way at some point too. These moments are proof that you’re not stuck—you’re growing.

I want you to see every challenge, every “I can’t do this” moment, as a powerful acknowledgment that you’re busting out of your old shell and stepping into the next level of yourself. Discomfort is the birthplace of growth.

The Seed Must Come Undone

There’s a beautiful quote I love by Cynthia Occelli:

“In order for a seed to reach its greatest expression, it must come completely undone. Its shell cracks, its insides come out, and to someone who doesn’t understand change, it would look like complete destruction.”

Isn’t that powerful? Growth is messy, raw, and uncomfortable. But it’s not destruction—it’s becoming.

Celebrate the Growth, Not Just the Wins

So when you find yourself frustrated, lost in the tech, waiting for a reply, or questioning everything—pause and celebrate. That discomfort is a sign that you’re changing, expanding, becoming the legend you’re meant to be. And when you see your students going through it, celebrate them too—they’re in the process of transformation.

Remember: discomfort won’t kill you, and the sky isn’t falling. It’s just the old shell cracking to let the new you emerge.

Ready to Embrace Your Growth?

If you’re ready to step into that beautiful, uncomfortable, life-changing growth—join me and other legends inside the Concept to Course Program. Let’s celebrate every messy, magnificent moment together.
