Comparison Shame and Paralysis | Ep #38
11/18/19 • 22 min
Are you comparing other people’s perceived success to your own and feeling terrible about yourself? That shame can trigger paralysis in your business - which stimulates further shame. Let’s talk about your own compass and how to honor that instead.
What you'll find in this episode:
- Knowing the “steps” to take is not the only part of success. The other part in achievement of outcomes is your brain and mindset.
- When learning from top performers: “Don’t just look at what they do. That’s just their action. Ask them why they do it.”
- “Comparison is the thief of joy.” ~ Theodore Roosevelt
- Are you building what you want, or have you spent so much time focusing on what everyone else has that you don’t even know what that is anymore?
- My favorite question I ask people at my Hawaiian retreat - “What do you really, really, really want? YOU.”
- Stop comparing and start really savoring and enjoying your own journey.

Who Does That? | Ep #37
Two of the most common things I hear clients say in moments of total frustration are “Who does that?” & “You would think.” As your coach, I’m not going to indulge your confusion and perplexity, because it’s not serving you. Here’s what let’s do instead.
What you'll find in this episode:
- “Who does that?” It doesn’t matter. The question to ask is, “What are you going to do about it?”
- “You would think...” No need losing valuable time staying perplexed and confused about what someone did. Your job is to evaluate whether or not you've been clear about the expectation.
- “Being in someone else’s family is like being in a foreign country.” You have people who were raised in totally different environments than yours.
- Instead of saying – you would think – say, I think...” Instead of “who does that” – say “I want this done.”
