Let's Buy a House, The Podcast was born from my desire to help people who want to buy a home, but just don't know where to start.

In this Episode I get into how when we have an idea for a new venture we can become so fixated on making sure we are completely and perfectly ready before launching that we often can become paralyzed and not take action. Taking action is often the thing we need to do to get some momentum going and punch fear in the face! I like to say, do it anyway. I've done so many things I didn't feel completely prepared to do and someway somehow I figured it out. Have I failed? You betcha! But then I corrected and moved forward. I hope you find value and share with friends and your own online community. For questions or collaborations, please feel free to reach me at mirigilmore@gmail.com

Although in my opinion taking action creates momentum, I have learned that "pausing" in the midst of change and adversity may be prudent.  In this episode I talk about the advantages in taking time to reflect, assess and adjust when moving forward. In a storytelling style I share my experiences and offer a little wisdom.
