Have you ever asked your coach for feedback, hoping it would get you out of a slump, and instead it made you feel even worse?
You get a list of what to fix, and somehow you end up more discouraged, more stuck, and doing nothing with it.

You simply were not actually needing feedback in that moment.
In this episode, Danielle R. Harris explains why you ask for feedback and then cannot seem to implement it. She also shares what kind of support you really need when you are overwhelmed, discouraged, or doubting your marketing.
If you have ever spiraled after getting feedback, avoided making edits, or felt ashamed for not applying what your coach told you, this episode will feel like a deep exhale.

In this episode, Danielle R. Harris gets honest about why 2025 did not unfold the way she hoped. It was not a strategy problem. It was not a lack of knowledge or ideas. It was the fear of succeeding.

She shares what really kept her playing small, the identity crash that happened after her last growth spike, and what she's focusing on to make 2026 a year of big results.
