When Do You Stop Believing in Yourself - Insights From a Motivational Speaker

When Do You Stop Believing in Yourself?

People often think career change is a young person’s game, that it’s easier to start over when you’re in your twenties or early thirties. But what if your years of experience are actually an advantage?

When I left my TV career, I had zero knowledge of business. As a public servant at a government-funded broadcaster, I didn’t truly understand how businesses worked. I thought money just appeared. My first business plan was laughable—so naive that I’m almost embarrassed to admit it. And yet, despite my inexperience, I figured it out. Why? Because I had decades of problem-solving skills, resilience, and adaptability behind me.

You don’t need to know everything when you start. You just need to start.

If we haven’t met yet…

I never considered myself good at change until I went from

-average shot to army sniper

-home movies to National Geographic cameraman

-fumbling card tricks to a professional magician

-never swinging a hammer to building a home

-high school dropout to published author

-business illiterate to selling a business

-stutterer to motivational speaker

Turns out I know how to change, I know how to make it simple, and I know how to stand on stage & make it fun so others want to do it too. Happy to talk dates and rates if you have an event.
