Recently I saw something that stopped me in my tracks. A super smart business owner friend shared her success with AI-generated professional photos - they looked incredible, saved her thousands of dollars, and solved a massive problem that so many of us face. Hundreds of people wanted to know how she did it. Of course! It's expensive, time-consuming and a big fat cringe-fest for many of us to get professional headshots taken. Problem = solved. BUT it also got me thinking about what happens when we remove all the uncomfortable growth moments from our lives. Sometimes the hard stuff is where the magic happens - even when it feels like absolute torture at the time.
