For this sixth episode of our third season,  the description comes from our guest, Linda McLachlan.
 

Linda is a coach, a consultant, a podcaster, and one of the reasons UnstuckAF exists, as Coach Orlando shares in this conversation. 

These are Linda's thoughts on her podcasting journey:

Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.
~ T. Roosevelt

I started my podcasting journey (my first Akimbo workshop in 2020) with a knapsack full of ‘should’ and ‘needs’.

I should know what I want to say, I should be ready to say it, I should already know a lot about podcasts and I need a microphone, I need a better laptop, I need more gear…

Looking at that list now, I know this was a way of hiding behind my ‘lack’ and ‘not good enough’. That belief that something outside myself would give me the ability to do and share with the world what was/ is already inside of me. Curiosity, perseverance, life experiences uniquely my own and a deep desire to speak, listen and learn from others.

Did those other things come along the way? The knowing how /what I want to say and to whom? The gear? yes, bit by bit. But not before a gradual acceptance of my ability to share myself through speaking aloud, into a recording device and hitting publish.

Our right, our ability and self-belief that we have something of value to share.  Maybe it’s not always unique but it’s of this time.  It’s for the eyes, ears and hearts of those our work will reach. The light in the darkness, the laughter through sadness.

Strike the match.
