For a long time, “ready” sounded like a finish line: more money, more certainty, fewer fears. Then I noticed something : every time one box was checked, another appeared. Readiness kept moving. What changed everything was redefining it: ready is having a next step you trust.
Practical signs:
- You can name your “why” in one sentence
- You’ve chosen a timeline (even a flexible one)
- You’ve listed two people or services you can lean on
- You’ve made space for the first appointments or research.
You don’t need zero fear. You need a structure that protects your peace while you move forward, one clear step at a time.
