In this new episode, Erin and Rachel tackle the topic of what’s really holding people back from becoming their best selves. They recently had polled their Facebook community to see what the women in the group said was holding them back. The two most common answers were time and Money.
But the girls keep it real by saying that it’s actually a lack mindset! They say that most people are not using their resources. If people leveraged the resources around them, they could be free. And that’s what most people really want, freedom!
One of the most powerful things that Erin and Rachel agree on is that asking for help is necessary. We can’t be good at everything or know everything, so asking for help is a way to gain knowledge and use the resources around you.
The girls believe that there is an abundance everywhere and never actually a lack of anything.
Here are some top takeaways:
- Sitting on the sidelines will get you nowhere
- Find what you are good at
- People want to help
- Being solution oriented and asking the right questions is necessary
- Don’t accept defeat or when someone tells you no
Let’s take a listen!
