“The size of your dreams must always exceed your current capacity to achieve them. If your dreams don’t scare you, they aren’t big enough.” -Ellen Johnson Sirleaf

In today’s episode, we unpack this famous quote.

As entrepreneurs, especially heart-led solopreneurs, we often face the challenge of balancing big dreams with the realities of running a business. I’ll be sharing my personal thoughts on why this quote inspires ambition but also how it can be taken too far when used as a push for unsustainable growth.

You’ll hear me talk about:

• Why pursuing big goals provides a sense of purpose.

• The importance of stepping out of your comfort zone but avoiding burnout.

• How solopreneurs can navigate scary goals like managing sales, tech, and delegation.

• When motivation turns into pressure—and how to avoid that trap.

Join the conversation by sharing your thoughts: Have you heard this quote before? How do you interpret it? Is there a balance between dream-chasing and staying grounded?
