Podcast Episode 358: 3 Reasons It Isn’t Your Fault When You’re Afraid to Pursue Your Dreams (& how to overcome it) with Abbi Miller

Ever catch yourself saying, “I’ll go for it when things calm down,” or “Maybe I’m just not ready yet”? If you’ve got a dream sitting on the back burner—whether it’s starting a business, writing a book, or launching a side hustle—you’re not lazy or unmotivated. You’re just stuck in a pattern that so many women, especially moms, fall into: thinking we need to be totally fearless before we start. But what if fear isn’t the thing holding you back… what if it’s actually the sign that you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be?

In this episode of the No Guilt Mom podcast, we’re joined by the incredible Abbi Miller—Holistic Business Strategist, speaker, and founder of WorkWomb™. Abbi has lived a wildly inspiring life: from performing in a Broadway tour at 19, to running international travel adventures for teens, to helping creative entrepreneurs scale thriving businesses without burnout. She’s not here to tell you to hustle harder or “manifest” your dreams into reality. Instead, she offers something way more powerful: permission to move forward with the fear—and even use it as fuel.

Abbi shares her own journey of conquering imposter syndrome and letting go of the pressure to do everything alone. She dives into how motherhood rewired her entire perspective on ambition, and how building community and asking for help became non-negotiables in her success. Her shark phobia surfing story alone will have you laughing out loud—then immediately reevaluating what fear really means in your own life.

If you’re a mom dreaming of something more but feeling held back by self-doubt, this episode will give you the pep talk and practical mindset shift you didn’t know you needed. You’ll walk away ready to let your freak flag fly, trust your gut, and take that next big step—no matter how scared you feel.

Listen now to hear how fear might actually be your biggest green light.

In this episode of the No Guilt Mom podcast you’ll learn:

  • Why you don’t have to kick fear or imposter syndrome to the curb before you go after your dream.
  • How motherhood changes the way women work—and how to adapt without burning out.
  • What it means to let your “freak flag fly” and own your individuality unapologetically.
  • How to build a support system that helps you scale your vision instead of staying stuck in DIY mode.
