The Morning Dig Hosted by Chris Williams
What if five minutes could shift the way you show up for the entire week?
I launched The Morning Dig in 2023 as my first podcast. I wanted to create a space where I could share quick, meaningful thoughts to help you reset, refocus, and keep digging in, especially when life feels heavy or unclear.
Every Monday, I release a short episode centered on leadership, mindset, and personal growth. Some are less than five minutes, some are a little longer, but each one is rooted in real experience and built to help you move into your week with clarity and intention.
This podcast was born out of my own journey through burnout, realignment, and learning how to lead without losing myself. I’m not here to give you all the answers. I’m here to share what I’ve lived, what I’ve learned, and what I’m still working through.
If you’re building something meaningful and trying to stay aligned with what matters, you’re in the right place.
Start your week with purpose, not pressure.

Fear Vs Growth: The Key To Moving Beyond Self-Doubt.
Overcoming the Fear of Taking Action
Welcome to the 10th episode of Season 4 of The Morning Dig Podcast!
In this episode, we discuss something many can relate to: the fear that holds us back. Have you ever hesitated to take a bold step because you feared failing or being judged?
Today, we’ll explain why those fears often aren’t as real as they seem and explore how pushing through them can lead to meaningful growth.
Drawing from a personal experience of speaking in front of peers, this episode unpacks the mental hurdles we create and how they can keep us stuck. From the doubts that creep in before big moments to the power of showing up and moving forward, you'll find insights on reframing fear and creating habits to refill your energy after pouring yourself out for others.
This isn’t just about giving speeches—it’s about approaching the moments that matter most in life and what it takes to believe in ourselves even when the stakes feel high.
If you’ve been waiting for the “right time” to act, this conversation might be the push you need.
