#234 – When You Stop Taking the Crumbs the Right Doors Start to Open

Have you ever made a declaration about what you want and then almost immediately life hands you an opportunity to test exactly that?

Salisha is in the middle of one of those moments right now. And she is letting you in.

In this episode, you'll hear about:

• Why the universe has a habit of testing your proclamations right after you make them
• The Broadway opportunity that showed up at the worst possible time and what she did about it
• What the pandemic taught her about her own worth that she could not have learned any other way
• The moment she realized she was done taking whatever was dangled in front of her
• The inner monologue that stopped her from saying yes to something she did not actually want
• What happened when she finally held her ground and waited for what she actually desired

The old way is always going to feel safer. That is the point of the test.

The question is what do you do when you are standing at that crossroads.
