Stepping Into Genius - Cindy Donaldson, Red Barn Consulting

Have you ever felt as though you were meant for something more, yet the thought of a major shift in your life gives you anxiety beyond belief?  Perhaps you suffer from Imposter Syndrome, never thinking you are good enough or constantly comparing yourself to others in a negative way.  Have you ever wanted to raise your hand in a meeting and share that brilliant idea that has been rolling around in your head, yet that hand never goes up because you fear the judgement of others?  You are not alone, nor are you broken: You just need a shift in mindset around success and around who you are.  You CAN be, do and/or have anything in life that you want. It takes stepping into your genius and learning the power of living a life by design, not by default. It’s not as hard as you think!
