Hot Seat Friday: “I’m stuck and don’t know how to get over my fear of failure” | with Jeffrey Lerner

In this episode, I give you an insider’s glimpse into the world of my Optimizer coaching & mentorship program and what we call the ‘Hot Seat.’ What you’ll hear today is a recording of an actual live session with an Optimizer student where on the Hot Seat we tackle various questions about career transitions, productivity, workflows, networking, burnout, habit formation, resumes and websites, and any number of other work or life challenges that students bring to the table as they navigate their own path towards success.

In the following hot seat session, community member Jeffrey Lerner is dealing with career anxiety which is manifesting itself largely as procrastination. As many of my students (myself included) have discovered in the past, the root cause of procrastination is often a bigger psychological issue rooted in perfectionism. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a job you didn’t want but were paralyzed to make a change, listen in to see how Jeffrey’s situation might apply to your own.
