Mentor Notes #114 - Your future self is waiting for one move.


Mentor Note #114

Mentor Note:

“Don’t wait for confidence. Confidence is built in motion.” - Sally Polihronas

Lets Dive in...

Hello Reader,

Can you believe it’s November? This year has moved fast - and maybe you’re noticing that quiet voice inside saying, “There’s still something I want to do. I’m not done yet.”

Not in a frantic, “I should have done more” way. But in that gut-level knowing that there is one step waiting for you., One step that feels like truth and that would close this year with conviction instead of doubt.

This note is about that step - the one that asks you to show up, trust yourself, and move before you feel “ready.”

Well - life has a way of bringing us the exact moment we need to rise into.
For me, it came last Saturday night.
My friend, the beautiful and wildly talented Amber Lawrence, asked me to get up on stage and sing an Oasis track with her and another school mum Danni! (I know how amazing, I get to do this with these amazing mums.)

And I said yes. Not because I felt totally ready - but because something in me knew that saying yes was the real work.

The nerves were there, the self-judgment tried to creep in.
But the preparation and the rehearsals brought grounding. The moment brought truth, I felt alive and my soul felt replenished.

And this is what I remembered:
You don’t become confident before the step - you become confident through it.

The Takeaway

There is one thing you’re being called to step toward before the year ends.

You already know what it is.

Not ten things.
Not a full rebrand.
Not a new routine.

Just one bold, intuitive choice.

Take the step now, not when you “feel ready.” Your future self isn’t waiting for January, she’s waiting for movement.

Something to Try

Journal one question:

“What is the one step I am being called to take before the year ends?”

Write the answer without censoring yourself.

Then, whatever it is - take the first small step toward it this week.

Not the final step or the impressive step, just the first one.

Let it be simple:

  • Send the message
  • Book the class
  • Share the idea
  • Begin the piece
  • Say yes

Trust the tremble. ( yes we do things nervous and the confidence comes when you take action, because when you see for yourself that you CAN do it, you become unstoppable.)

I appreciate you!

Until next week,

Much love,

Sally xx

Mentor Note #112 Mentor Note: “The moments of greatest resistance are the moments right before transformation.” - David Ghiyam Lets Dive in... Hello Reader, I was sitting here thinking I've got to inspire you and give you all I've got this week and then I had this overwhelming feeling to just stop and sit in the gut feels and share this wisdom. There’s something super potent about this time of year; the last days of October hold a quiet power. In mystical traditions, the period between...

Mentor Note #111 Mentor Note: "Surrender to change or suffer in a loop." – Unknown Lets Dive in... Hello Reader, I was thinking this week about my notes and how sometimes, when you look back on personal growth, it feels so much easier than living through it in the moment. Times of change, expansion, or elevation can feel like you’re drowning, like you’re losing yourself. They can be some of the hardest moments to navigate - even when you know they’re exactly what you need. I’ve seen it in my...
