Episode notes

A leap is an action or a project that you can finish in under two weeks. It's not just anything that makes you feel wild and crazy, there are six criteria. The idea is you're moving into action really quickly. And the, you know, it has great practical benefits, cause you learn and you get into action. But also emotional benefits because it forces you to confront whatever fears have been keeping you hiding.

Tara Mohr is an expert on women’s leadership and well-being. She helps women play bigger in sharing their voices and bringing forward their ideas in work and in life. Tara is the author of Playing Big: Practical Wisdom for Women Who Want to Speak Up, Create, and Lead, named a best book of the year by Apple’s iBooks and now in paperback. In the book, she shares her pioneering model for making the journey from playing small–being held back by fear and self-doubt–to playing big, taking bold action to pursue what you see as your callings.

In this “From the Archive” episode, Eric and Tara discuss strategies to deal with our inner critic and live a bigger, more meaningful life.
