She Thinks Big with Andrea Liebross

Stress happens. However, it’s often the symptom instead of the cause of what’s going on in your mind. You can use your stress productively to create progress, but before you do that you have to recognize if you’re in stuck stress mode. In this episode, I talk about how to identify stuck stress in yourself and the tools you need to transform it into productive stress.4:53 - Three ways to know if you’re in stuck stress10:55 - Three reasons why you’re in stuck stress mode15:03 - Other ways stuck stress can affect you mentally and emotionally16:58 - What productive stress looks and feels like19:28 - How to get to the productive stress stage24:08 - What to do if you want to get to a place of zero stuck stressMentioned In How to Switch from Stuck Stress to Productive Stress ModeThe Full Focus PlannerCommitted to Growth Runway to Freedom Schedule a Call with Andrea Liebross

I’ve used planners and systems to help me plan for pretty much all of my adult life. I had one of those skinny pocket planners that were once all the rage and even was an early adopter of the Palm Pilot from the 90s. For the last few years, though, I’ve fully embraced The Full Focus Planner system. In this episode, I discuss how this system can allow you to plan, schedule, and raise your productivity and happiness with whatever you choose to do on a consistent basis.3:03 - Where paper planners have the edge over digital calendars7:35 - Pain points you might experience as you strive to create a life you really love15:00 - How the Full Focus Planner can give you practical answers for your problems18:53 - One of the big differences between other systems I’ve used and the Full Focus Planner22:21 - The five key practices of The Full Focus Planner system that’ll change how you live and work26:52 - Quick overview of what I’ll cover in the four-part Full Focus for Fall MasterclassMentioned In How the Full Focus Planner System Will Change the Way You Live and WorkThe Full Focus PlannerFull Focus for Fall Masterclass (Limited Spots; use discount code “podcast” at checkout for $100 off) - Starts August 11thSchedule a Call with Andrea Liebross

We want everything to be easy, comfortable, and efficient. Organization aligns with all three, but getting organized requires clear thinking. Your mind itself has to be clear and organized enough for your life and business to follow. If so, then you’ll be way ahead of most people.

How long does it take you to make a decision and act on it? Maybe a little too long?In this episode, I’m teaching you how to go through a high-value growth cycle that will help you make decisions, implement them, and evaluate them to create more and more breakthroughs in your life and business. When you experience growth, you always go through the messy middle stage. This is when things feel really hard and like nothing is going to work out. On the other side of the messy middle is a breakthrough, but you have to push through to reach it. How much easier would that be if you had a process to follow? That’s what I’m sharing with you in this episode. If you’re struggling to make decisions, it’s probably because you haven’t made enough of them. Like any skill, decision-making gets easier with practice, so let’s practice! I'm describing what a high-value growth cycle (or breakthrough cycle) looks like and how completing these cycles moves you towards the results you want. If you want to create more breakthroughs, this is for you. Show notes available at www.andrealiebross.com/podcast84Resources Mentioned: Episode 20: How To Make Things Simple, Doable, and Fun: www.andrealiebross.com/podcast20Episode 82: The Key to Making Better Choices: Knowing How to Figure Out All the Options: www.andrealiebross.com/podcast82 Reveal the Root of your problem.

Do you have a goal that you’re struggling to reach? Here’s a question that might help: where are you starting from? If you’re not sure where you’re at right now, it’s going to be almost impossible to plan how to move forward. You have to know where you’re starting from. In this episode, we’re talking about why it’s so important to figure out your starting point, why this step is so often overlooked, and how to do it. I want you to get crystal clear on where you’re at right now so that you can begin to grow. I’ve noticed that this is a highly underestimated part of developing and growing as a human, so maybe you’ve never even thought about it before. And that’s okay because we’re going to start with the basics! Everything you need to know is in this episode.It’s important to note that this is not about judging yourself for where you’re at, but fully embracing it. There’s nothing wrong with where you are right now. If you’re not sure where you’re at right now, this episode will help you figure it out. Show notes available at www.andrealiebross.com/podcast83Resources Mentioned: Episode 81: How to Know What You Really Want: http://www.andrealiebross.com/podcast81 Reveal the Root of your problem.

In a perfect world, what would you really want?This is one of the most important things for you to know. Knowing what you want is very different from knowing what you think you can have. Usually, I have to ask my clients what they would want “in a perfect world.” Only then do they dare let themselves dream about what they really want. I’m here to tell you that it’s okay to want what you want. I’m teaching you how to let go of your inhibitions and dare to dream big. I have seen so many women hide their truest desires from themselves and I don’t want you to be one of them. Tune in to this episode and together we’ll find out what you really want. Show notes available at www.andrealiebross.com/podcast81Resources Mentioned: Episode 17: Why You Need a Belief Plan Instead of a To-Do List: www.andrealiebross.com/podcast17 Episode 26: How to Find Your Passion, Or Not: www.andrealiebross.com/podcast26Episode 46: When You Avoid: www.andrealiebross.com/podcast46 Episode 63: Separating Self-Worth From Business Value: www.andrealiebross.com/podcast63 Episode 66: Untangle Productivity From Worthiness: www.andrealiebross.com/podcast66 Episode 77: Confidence or Motivation: Which Do You Need More Of?: www.andrealiebross.com/podcast77 I would love to connect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/deliberatedirectionI would love to connect on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andrea.liebross.coaching
