Steven says discomfort isn't a warning sign, it's proof you're learning something. Lean into it instead of avoiding it, and ask people around you how they handle the same feelings. Most of us get through it fine.

If you could go back and tell young Steven one piece of advice, what would it be? If you feel uncomfortable or you feel like you don't know how to do this, those feelings are not negative feelings that you should view as bad. Those are actually opportunities where you're learning and growing. And so that feeling of uncomfortableness, lean into that. Ask people like, how do you feel when you do this? And some people feel confident all the time when they shouldn't, but a lot of people are like, yeah, I tried to do this and I was successful.
