Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore

What does it take to persevere through the challenging journey of pursuing your dreams? Drawing inspiration from Stephen King's memoir on writing, I explore the profound impact of having just one person who truly believes in you.King's powerful observation that "life isn't a support system for art—it's the other way around" resonates deeply with me. We understand our humanity through creative expression. This is why your voice—whether you're a writer, podcaster, or any type of creator—matters so significantly. The world needs your perspective to make sense of itself.And, as a special bonus, I want to give you FREE access to my signature course, Slay Your Year (usually $997)!

Ever notice how that task you've been avoiding seems to grow more daunting the longer you put it off? Whether it's organizing finances, tackling creative work, or starting a side hustle, our resistance often stems from anticipating discomfort.Today, we cut through conventional wisdom about motivation, acknowledging its fleeting nature - "like showering, it doesn't last, that's why you have to do it daily." Rather than fighting this reality, I offer a refreshingly simple approach: intentionally make difficult tasks enjoyable. The magic starts with asking yourself, "How can I make this task enjoyable?" - a question that shifts your mindset from suffering through obligations to designing pleasant experiences.And, as a special bonus, I want to give you FREE access to my signature course, Slay Your Year (usually $997)!

Ever feel stuck in your own head, unable to see the obvious next step in your life? Today, I share a brilliantly simple yet powerful perspective shift to cut through the confusion: imagine your life as a movie where you're the main character, and ask yourself what the audience would be shouting at you to do.This thought experiment uses disassociation to help you step outside yourself and gain clarity on the actions you might be avoiding. Would viewers be urging you to "stop doubting yourself," "put down your phone and connect with your loved ones," or perhaps "book that ticket" to the destination you've been dreaming about? When we position ourselves as the protagonist viewed through others' eyes, we access the same compassionate wisdom we readily offer to characters in stories.And, as a special bonus, I want to give you FREE access to my signature course, Slay Your Year (usually $997)!

Feeling envious? What if that uncomfortable emotion is actually your internal compass pointing toward what you truly desire? This eye-opening exploration challenges our conventional understanding of envy, transforming it from something we hide into a powerful tool for personal growth.Drawing from insights shared in a recent Self Coaching Society session, I invite you to bring an open mind to this conversation about envy as an expander rather than something that makes us feel small. By asking ourselves critical questions—Who triggers our envy? What specific aspects of their life spark those feelings? What does this reveal about our deepest desires?—we can mine our envious feelings for invaluable data about our authentic path forward.And, as a special bonus, I want to give you FREE access to my signature course, Slay Your Year (usually $997)!

Have you ever wondered why you bring such discipline to your day job yet treat your deepest creative ambitions with casual inconsistency? This disconnect lies at the heart of what Steven Pressfield calls the amateur versus professional mindset—the pivotal difference between eternally dreaming and actually creating.Drawing from Pressfield's transformative book "Turning Pro," I share the twenty qualities that separate professionals from amateurs in creative pursuits. These aren't traits reserved for the talented few but accessible habits anyone can develop: showing up every day without exception, staying committed over the long haul, acting despite fear, seeking order in your creative process, and perhaps most crucially, self-validating rather than waiting for external approval. The professional mindset demystifies creative work, removing the romantic notion that inspiration must strike before progress happens.And, as a special bonus, I want to give you FREE access to my signature course, Slay Your Year (usually $997)!

Are you going through something that feels insurmountable right now? That crushing feeling when life pulls the rug from under you is something we all face, but rarely discuss with such honesty and hope.The concept of the "after party" – that celebration waiting on the other side of your current struggle – transforms how we perceive life's challenges. Through compelling personal stories and examples, this episode illuminates how every difficult season eventually gives way to clarity and celebration. From a friend who endured six years of fertility treatments before welcoming her beautiful baby, to professional setbacks that lead to unexpected breakthroughs, to even the painful process of divorce that ultimately delivers newfound freedom – these testimonies reveal that our darkest moments contain the seeds of our greatest joys.And, as a special bonus, I want to give you FREE access to my signature course, Slay Your Year (usually $997)!

"Whatever you avoid owns you." These five powerful words encapsulate the hidden trap many of us fall into daily. While avoidance feels like self-protection, it's actually a silent thief, stealing our growth, confidence, and possibility.Consider the difficult conversations you're putting off in your relationships or at work. That avoidance isn't keeping you safe—it's allowing resentment to build, misunderstandings to flourish, and connection to wither. Or perhaps you're avoiding risk and rejection, staying small to stay comfortable. But as I point out, this simply reinforces self-doubt and guarantees you'll make no progress toward your dreams.And, as a special bonus, I want to give you FREE access to my signature course, Slay Your Year (usually $997)!

Have you ever noticed how desperately we try to make beautiful things last? From preserving flower bouquets to clinging to relationships past their prime, we fight against the natural rhythm of beginnings and endings.A simple yet profound comment from a floral expert on the Drew Barrymore Show sparked this reflection on impermanence. While discussing tips to extend the life of cut flowers, he paused and offered this wisdom instead: "Flowers aren't meant to last. They're meant to highlight the temporary, transient nature of beauty and of life right before our eyes." This statement stopped me in my tracks and found its way into my notebook immediately.And, as a special bonus, I want to give you FREE access to my signature course, Slay Your Year (usually $997)!

Have you ever felt the sting of rejection and wondered why you weren't chosen? This thought-provoking episode challenges our fundamental assumptions about rejection with one powerful question: "Did they not choose you, or did you not choose them?"Breaking through the victim mentality that keeps us stuck, we examine how often we sit on the sidelines of life, metaphorically "eating Doritos" while judging the world for overlooking our talents and contributions. The truth is that most people who seem "chosen" – whether for career opportunities, social circles, or creative recognition – are actually active participants who consistently put themselves forward rather than waiting to be discovered.And, as a special bonus, I want to give you FREE access to my signature course, Slay Your Year (usually $997)!
