Five Badass Q&As
Q1: What is the Radical Empowerment Method?
A1: The Radical Empowerment Method is a pathway to living your most radical life. It involves specific steps from my 10-year journey of self-empowerment, helping people make more money, improve relationships, or love themselves and claim their worthiness.
Q2: How do people become or feel invisible and ineffective?
A2: It varies for each person, often starting in childhood due to being ignored at home or bullied at school. For entrepreneurs feeling this way despite their success, it usually stems from their mindset and the stories they create about themselves.
Q3: What is a common mindset issue that entrepreneurs face?
A3: Entrepreneurs often struggle with self-worth and the stories they tell themselves. They might feel ineffective or invisible despite knowing their clients love them. It’s crucial to catch and reframe negative thoughts to overcome these feelings.
Q4: How do you deal with the fear of failure?
A4: Acknowledge the fear and understand it's a part of growth. Embrace failures as learning experiences and take ownership of them. Recognize physical sensations signaling a negative spiral and reframe the story to move forward positively.
Q5: How do you introduce gratitude to someone in pain?
A5: Start every session with a gratitude question. If they can't think of anything, let it be. As the conversation progresses, they often realize small things they're grateful for. It's about allowing space for their feelings and gently guiding them to find gratitude.
