Welcome back to another episode of the Say Hola Wealth Podcast!
Are you struggling with taking action because you don’t feel 100% ready? You are not alone. Many people, especially women of color, hesitate to take financial risks, invest in themselves, or start a new venture because they believe they need more knowledge, money, or time.
In this episode, Luzy King breaks down why waiting until you are 100% ready is a mindset trap that keeps you stuck. She shares her own journey of investing in herself before she felt fully prepared and how that decision transformed her life.
If you’ve been holding back on an important decision, this episode will show you how to take action when you’re not 100% ready and why imperfect action is better than no action at all.
