After years leading inside organizations, she realized the real risk wasn't betting on herself. It was sitting in an office someday, looking back at the path she never took. That unlivable regret…the one that hadn't happened yet…scared her more than failure ever could.
Fear shows up. It always does. But betting on yourself means learning to move while afraid. A year into building something fully her own, Sheryl will tell you she's still scared. And she has no intention of going back.
If you're a leader, a coach, or someone sitting at the crossroads between what's safe and what's true for you, this is the conversation you didn't know you needed.
Overcoming fear isn't about making it disappear. It's about declaring that fear is NOT a good enough reason to stop.

This is a clip from our full conversation on What Do You Know To Be True? which is an invitation to continue on your journey to becoming your possible self.
In this full episode, Sheryl answers the following questions:
- How to find more joy in your work?
- How to be happy at work when you hate it?
- How to make work fun and enjoyable?
- As a leader, am I allowed to have fun and experience joy?
The full conversation is for the leader who knows something feels misaligned but hasn't found the language for it yet. The OD practitioner who sees the pattern in their organization and wants to interrupt it. The coach doing the inner work but still getting hijacked by the room.
Sheryl's invitation is direct. You don't have to wait for conditions to be right.
You can lead from who you actually are, right now, even when the people around you are hiding it.
