132: You Don't Need Another Sock
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
For years, Nata has had the same recurring dream. She's rejoining her old volleyball team, and every single time, something is missing. A sock. Her shoes. Her uniform doesn't match. She's back at her car digging through a bag, alone, while the rest of the team is already on the court.
She used to write it off as leftover athlete identity. Then she started seeing the same pattern in her coaching sessions, over and over, in founders who have nothing to do with sports.
In this episode, Nata breaks down what that dream actually taught her about capable founders who keep standing at the edge of their own business, convinced they need one more thing before they're allowed to fully step in. Not a confidence problem. A permission problem. And the difference changes everything about how you fix it.
You'll hear about:
- Why the founders who stall the longest usually have the most proof they're capable, not the least
- The tell that shows up after the "missing piece" finally gets found (spoiler: another one shows up)
- What this actually looks like in a business: the price you've outgrown but won't raise yet, the job description you keep rewriting instead of posting, the offer that's ready but keeps getting circled
- Why the identity that built your business isn't the same identity required to lead it
If this one hits close to home, Nata wants to hear about your version of the missing sock. Message her on Instagram @accidentalceo.co.
