Positioning to Profit

On this week's episode of the Positioning to Profit podcast, I have special guest Lauren Fonvielle, an EFT expert who shares how EFT Tapping for entrepreneurs can help.

================
Being an entrepreneur is no joke. The ups and downs can be wild, and sometimes we just need a way to deal with the stress and overwhelm that comes with it all. That's where Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) comes in. And, let me tell you, it's a game-changer. EFT, also known as "tapping", is a holistic healing modality that combines the principles of ancient Chinese acupuncture with modern psychology. And it's not just for yogis and spiritual seekers. It's for anyone who wants to manage their emotions and stay on top of their game. With EFT, you tap on specific energy meridian points on your body while focusing on a specific issue or problem. This helps release any negative emotions or energy blockages that may be contributing to your stress and overwhelm. It's like a mental reset button!  

Here are some ways that EFT can help entrepreneurs:
First, it can help us manage our anxiety and fear around taking risks and making big decisions. Because let's be real, those two things can be major stressors in our lives. Second, it can help us stay focused and motivated, even when faced with setbacks and challenges which is pretty much a daily occurrence in the life of an entrepreneur. Lastly, it can help us cultivate a sense of self-compassion and inner peace. And who doesn't need a little more of that in their lives?  

EFT Tapping for Entrepreneurs is an easy process:
First, identify the issue or problem you want to work on. It could be anything from a specific work-related stressor to a general feeling of overwhelm. Then, rate the intensity of your feelings on a scale of 0-10.  Next, create an "affirmation statement" that acknowledges the issue but affirms your ability to overcome it. For example, "Even though I feel overwhelmed by my workload, I deeply and completely accept myself and my abilities."  Then, tap on the energy meridian points while repeating your affirmation statement. Start at the karate chop point (the fleshy part of your hand below your pinky finger) and tap firmly but gently on each point as you move through the sequence: eyebrow, side of eye, under eye, under nose, chin, collarbone, underarm, and top of head.  After a few rounds of tapping, take a deep breath and rate the intensity of your feelings again. Repeat the tapping sequence as needed until your intensity level drops to a 2 or below.

EFT tapping for entrepreneurs is an easy yet powerful method that can help you manage your emotions and reduce stress and overwhelm in your business and personal life.

Hey there, Patty Dominguez here with episode 168 of the Positioning to Profit Podcast. I hope you're enjoying your day and your week. Thank you for being here! Today's episode features guest Possibility Coach Victoria Rader, Ph.D. Our focus is on peace, purpose, and prosperity—three things that we could all use more of. Victoria believes that the universe answers the questions we ask and that true freedom is born and protected within. She encourages us to be aware of where we are and to have a strategy to reach the next level without bypassing it. To do this, she suggests we start by asking ourselves what is working beautifully in our lives right now and then taking action on the answer we receive.

Victoria also discussed how her upbringing shaped her career today and the valuable lessons she learned. She advises us to be aware of our current circumstances and to recognize that we need to go through stages of progression to move from survival to success and significance. She also shared the story of one of her clients, who, through Victoria's guidance, was able to launch two businesses, a transportation business and a bakery, even in the "worst possible economic climate." Finally, Victoria shared her vision for the future of her company, which is to continue to grow it through her team of coaches, who share the message of possibility and co-create special programs and products.

Hey there! Patty Dominguez here with episode 167 of the Positioning to Profit Podcast. I sure hope this finds you doing super well in your business and your life, on a personal level and all that. Today I have a very special guest, Catalina Gutierrez, a serial entrepreneur who's been in the game for decades and brings a wealth of knowledge and experience, and we'll be having a very real and raw conversation about mental health and entrepreneurs.

Being an entrepreneur can often be seen as a glamorous and rewarding lifestyle. After all, who wouldn’t want to own their own business and make their own rules? But what most people don’t think about is the downside of being an entrepreneur. While there can be great rewards, the reality is that entrepreneurs face a higher risk for mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and stress.

There are several ways to manage mental health issues when you’re an entrepreneur. First off, it's important to recognize when you're feeling overwhelmed or depressed. It's also important to practice self-care by taking regular breaks from your work and engaging in activities you enjoy outside of your business pursuits. Additionally, it can be beneficial to reach out for help from family and friends or even professional counselors if necessary. Lastly, don't forget to track your progress so you can see how far you've come in managing your mental health over time!

As an entrepreneur, it's important to recognize that mental health issues are a real concern — one that needs attention and support from both within and outside the entrepreneurial community. By taking steps such as recognizing signs of distress early on, practicing self-care regularly, reaching out for help when needed, and tracking your progress over time — you can take control over your mental health as an entrepreneur! With these strategies in place and with support from those around you — there really is no limit to what you can achieve!

Tune in to hear the full conversation and learn how to prioritize mental wellness in your business.

BIOGRAPHY
Shaily started doing social media for her hobby community in high school… ON MYSPACE. She didn't realize what she did was doing social media until after college when she saw a question on a job application asking if she had ever managed an online community, and she realized there was something there. She graduated from Indiana University with a degree and certification in elementary education K-6, and she now uses those mad teaching skills to lead workshops, work with business owners 1-on-1 training them on social media, and has coached 200+ B2B consultants on how to use LinkedIn to grow their business. She guides business on how to stay top of mind with their community and referral network using social media. I hold them accountable and boost their confidence in themselves, what they have to offer, and their own social media abilities. She loves live streaming, event social media, live Tweeting, and comment engagement. She has spoken at Trunk Club, Fiverr, State Farm, Notre Dame, University of Illinois, DePaul University, and University of Chicago. She is a Persian-Moroccan Indiana University Grad who loves cheesy icebreakers, bubble tea, poker, reality competition shows like Big Brother and Survivor, TEDx conferences, magic, flea markets, the Jewish community, and her sequin closet.
