    The Living the Life You Imagined podcast teaches you -- the Imaginer -- how to uncover and create the dream career and life that you actually imagined. I used to believe that women with dream careers were "lucky" or "brave." But those are just thoughts and beliefs.Fear is the only thing standing in the way of your dream career. And I happen to be an expert on fear. I created my dream career by "hacking" my brain to overcome my fear. This included my fear of knowing exactly "how" to uncover my dream career while simultaneously creating financial security. Once I quieted my fear, my brain easily developed the understanding, the know-how and the financial abundance. I can teach you to do the same. Because you already have everything you need.
