175 - So Easy To Repeat The Negative

Stop Sabotaging Your Success

In this episode, Cindy Esliger discusses negativity bias, the tendency we have to look for what's going wrong when we're in an environment that doesn't affirm or value our contributions. This focus on the negative isn't out of pessimism, but is a survival strategy. However, the more we allow ourselves to focus on the negative, the more it feels like the truth. Cindy examines how this happens and what it takes to change our mindset and challenge the negative patterns. Breaking free of self-limiting narratives is possible, and Cindy explains how it's done.  Negativity is rarely something we consciously choose. It's a survival technique that becomes a default way of thinking over time. The first step to breaking the pattern, therefore, is acknowledging how easy it is to focus on the negative. Cindy addresses how the habit forms and what we unconsciously do to feed it. When we understand how we're responding to negative input or a toxic environment, we can identify where the self-doubt takes root. She presents the idea of shifting the pattern of our input to reframe our mindset. Cindy's advice on breaking the cycle of negativity includes making a choice not to let our challenges be the only story we tell ourselves. By giving ourselves permission to believe that outcomes other than negative ones are possible, we start to retrain our brains to identify opportunity as well as risk. Cindy talks about the pitfalls of internalized comparison and the glorification of suffering for suffering's sake. She breaks down how these add to negative bias and work against our success. Instead, she advises giving ourselves the benefit of the doubt so can alter our own mindset and outlook.  Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Breaking Free from the Negativity LoopAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

Deborah, Sophee's mother, "is in her own world and she's happy there and I come in and out of that world and that's ok," continues Payne who's never felt that she's had to live near  to her parents.  Payne is comfortable saying, "I care for them deeply, I just feel that closeness to them is not a priority."  A Florida native, now living in Vancouver, CA,  Sophee is happily ensconced in her full time career, helping other's fulfill their dreams.After six years, getting straight A's and doing all that she was 'supposed to do,'  completing her bachelors degree and getting a Master's Degree in Industrial Design, she realized that she wasn't happy. My guest loved the design work but really missed the one one one interaction with people. After watching her mother struggle in an attempt  to start her own business and fail, Sophee felt so much 'self doubt' that she never thought she'd be capable of  starting her own.  Again, interesting dynamics between the two women often got in the way. Payne feels that her mom likes having people around so they can do things for her that she doesn't necessarily like to do. "She demands a lot from the people closest to her," admits Sophee. "I think of her as a sun, even from a distance I can feel this warmth, she gives direction, but at the same time, the closer you get the more uncomfortably warm you get  and also the more you're kind of forced to evolve around her," reflects Payne.Sophee is comfortable saying what works for her now regarding her relationship with her mom.  It's about "showing my mom compassion, compassion with boundaries." WEBSITE: BEST LIFE COACH COLLECTIVEhttps://bestlifecoachcollective.com/coach/sophee-payne/ WEBSITE:https://www.sopheepayne.com/Hi, I'm sophee.connect with me hereI'm an ICF-accredited, international career coach based in Vancouver, Canada and Seattle who uses positive psychology, ontology, and strength-based analysis to help people identify what they are looking for — and how to find long-term happiness, growth and fulfillment in their professional and personal lives.I have worked with people from Seattle to Shanghai, and my international career counseling practice is multidisciplinary and champions people of all backgrounds.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger explores the power of words and why language is about more than communication. The words we choose shape how we view ourselves and what we believe is possible. By using more empowering words, we can open ourselves to new options and reclaim our sense of agency. Cindy offers insight into how different words impact our mindset and how to go about reframing our thoughts from a more positive perspective. It's not just about the meaning of our words, but the words themselves.  The smallest, seemingly most casual words often carry the most weight. Words like can't, won't, don't, and should. We think they're harmless because we use them out of habit. But Cindy points out how the habits behind their use shape our behavior, confidence and careers over time. She examines how the words subtly mire us in limiting beliefs and suggests ways in which we can examine the circumstances that created the word habits and reframe them into a more positive light. Naming our experiences correctly is an important step towards healing from the limiting words we've been using. Cindy stresses that we don't have to find perfect words, we don't always have to sound polished, we just need to state the truth of our experience. She offers five ways to put this word into action: 1) Replace ‘but' with ‘and', 2) Trade ‘should' for ‘could', 3) Speak in terms of options and opportunities, 4) Notice our language without judgment, and 5) Reframe our past experiences with ‘even though' language. She encourages us to intentionally choose words that build us up, rather than tear us down.  Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Choosing Your Words More CarefullyAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

In this episode, Cindy Esliger talks about the invisible load of anxiety, stress, and self-imposed pressure that high-achieving women often carry under their calm and capable exteriors. What the world sees as strength hides exhaustion from trying to stay ahead of anxiety by never sitting still. Cindy breaks down how to recognize when constant busyness is a coping mechanism, how to separate stress from anxiety, and the key to reclaiming control over mind, body, and career. While from the outside we may appear superhuman by being perpetually in motion, that relentless busyness often masks deep-seated anxiety. Our culture has instructed us that the goal is to have it all together, to operate at a high level under pressure. But what about the unseen anxiety that exterior composure hides? Cindy names three steps to breaking the anxiety loop: 1) Get curious about symptoms, 2) Separate sensation from fear, and 3) Practice sitting with discomfort. Feeling stressed or anxious is not a sign we're broken. Discomfort doesn't mean we're failing. Cindy encourages us to get familiar with our body signals in order to remove the fear and take back our power. She teaches us about awareness, how to override our stress responses, and the power of redirecting past or future worry back to the present moment. Cindy explores how we can learn to find moments of true presence and how to show up intentionally so anxiety is not running the show. Her guidance helps to identify anxiety for what it is and demystify it so we can get comfortable in our own skin and embrace stillness.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Recognizing When You're Masking AnxietyAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

In this episode, Cindy Esliger explores the idea that our emotions are not just reactions to what happens around us, but are conscious and intentional choices we have control over. If we don't consciously choose how to feel, we leave it to chance and find ourselves at the whim of spiralling emotions. Cindy proposes steering away from fear as our default and instead setting intentions for our emotions to learn how to anticipate best-case scenarios instead of worst-case ones. Instead of our emotions being at the mercy of our surroundings, we can instruct ourselves on how to feel. We believe that choosing how we feel means ignoring real problems and pretending everything is fine. That couldn't be farther from the truth. Cindy is clear that choosing our emotions is not about fake positivity or just gritting our teeth through the bad times, it's about claiming ownership over our internal experience. So, how do we do that? By intentionally choosing what we want to feel and setting an emotional anchor for whatever situation arises. Cindy shares four practical strategies to help us take control of our emotions: 1) Start each day by consciously choosing how we want to feel, 2) Reframe fear and criticism immediately, 3) Counter every worst-case scenario with a best-case, and 4) Use intentional compartmentalization. By deciding how we'll feel, we learn to avoid our brain's default setting of predicting danger. Choosing how to feel is a power move, not wishful thinking. Cindy's advice gives us the groundwork we need to start taking control of our emotions.Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Not Leaving It To ChanceAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

I've been thinking a lot about prioritizing lately, mostly because I've been shifting the way I prioritize things in my life the last few months. My priorities desperately needed to change so that work wasn't always #1, and I wasn't always chasing an endless to-do list of busywork.Because “when you prioritize the important over the urgent, you don't just get more done, you get the right things done. And that's the difference between a busy life and a meaningful one.” - Greg McKeown.So today's quickie reveals how to break free from the cult of busyness and master the art of prioritization using productivity minimalism principles inspired by Greg McKeown best-selling book, Essentialism. We dive into why you're focusing on urgent tasks instead of important priorities, along with actionable strategies to create a more meaningful, intentional life. I break down The Law of Inverse Prioritization, which explains why the most important things in life (health, relationships, personal growth) often get neglected while urgent but meaningless tasks consume all of our time and energy.Tune in to hear:Productivity minimalism strategies for focusing on high-impact activitiesThe difference between urgent and importantTime management tricks through intentional prioritizationWork-life balance and escaping the busyness addiction cycleMy priorities in this season of life (Burnout prevention, relationships, writing and health)Time blocking techniques for non-negotiable important activities3 key questions for your prioritization and decision-making frameworkOrganizing your life around purpose and impactResources mentioned:Greg McKeown's Instagram videoGreg's book and academy on EssentialismFor advertising and sponsorship inquiries, please contact Frequency Podcast Network.

It's about cultivating intentionality and setting a vision to act on. She explains how to do the work when it's uncomfortable and to stop waiting for the perfect moment to arrive before we start acting on our goals. Cindy offers a guide for not just having a plan but acting on it without holding out for a mysterious invitation or ideal moment.There is a tendency to wait for the perfect conditions before forging ahead into the progress we want to see in our careers. But waiting for life to beckon us in is futile. Building the career we want starts by just taking a step forward on a random Tuesday. It's about doing something today, even if it's slightly uncomfortable. Cindy offers advice on how we can create momentum to make the first steps less daunting. Once we start moving, we build self-trust and confidence, the foundation of success.Cindy explores why adaptability is essential to building our careers, but why adaptation without direction will allow us to be blown off-course. We need to develop a steady core that includes our values and sense of purpose to create anchors for ourselves. She discusses cultivating mentorship, understanding what energizes us, and developing mental strength instead of relying on luck.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger talks about reframing challenges into opportunities for growth. The challenges that pop up in the workplace over and over can erode our confidence in the long run, but what Cindy wants us to know is that we have the power to shape what the challenges mean. They can be empowering instead of destructive if we view them the right way. How do we transform struggles into power? How do we use the challenges to our benefit? Amid the confusion and frustration of workplace struggles lies a profound opportunity. While we can't control other people or circumstances that arise, we can control our own responses and interpretations of the experience. Cindy walks us through ten steps on how to build a stronger foundation for success from the struggles and setbacks we encounter. 1) Acknowledge the hurt. 2) Accept that people will behave according to their fears, not our merits. 3) Reframe setbacks as stepping stones. Cindy continues explaining how to build success from challenges. 4) Master the stories we tell ourselves. 5) Identify patterns and learn from them. 6) Distill lessons into personal wisdom. 7) Adjust our beliefs and behaviors. 8) Build and protect resilience. 9) Shift from blame to ownership. And 10) Choose intentional action every step of the way. Cindy guides us through these ten steps because, as she says, “you have the power to make this the beginning of your transformation”.

In this episode, Cindy Esliger explores emotional exhaustion, the extreme weariness that makes everything feel like just another item on an endless to-do list. It's a common lived reality, and Cindy addresses what it feels like and how it can snowball into impacting everything from work quality to health. However, it can be managed. There is a way to reframe setbacks and find the good among the chaos, a way to regain control and prioritize our well-being, that Cindy lays out for us. How do we know if we're in the midst of emotional exhaustion? Cindy shares four telltale signs that we're running on empty: 1) Struggling to find joy, 2) Increased resilience on distractions, 3) Feeling stuck or hopeless, and 4) Numbness. She assures us that not only is emotional exhaustion not a personal failing, but everyone feels it at some point. But just because it's normal doesn't mean we have to stay stuck in it.Cindy asks us to remember that bad things will happen, but we can choose to find something good to focus on. We can also assess what's draining us by using these four tips on how to decide whether we're putting energy into the right things: 1) Take inventory, 2) Solve or shift, 3) Break the pattern, and 4) Restore energy. When we shift from trying to control outcomes to focusing on our responses and energy allocation, we have the key to maintaining resilience and progress. Resources discussed in this episode:Guide to Turning Exhaustion Into EmpowermentAstronomic AudioConfidence Collective—Contact Cindy Esliger Career Confidence Coaching: website | instagram | facebook | linkedin | email

Laverne  McKinnon joins us from Los Angeles. _______________________ Bio Laverne McKinnon's journey reflects a sincere commitment to helping individuals and organizations rediscover their capacity for impact and creativity. She balances multiple hats, integrating her experience and expertise as both a Career Coach and Grief Recovery Specialist with her extensive background as a Film & Television Producer. With an understanding that unaddressed setbacks and grief can erode resilience, Laverne specializes in guiding people and companies to reconnect with their core strengths and aspirations. Her approach is grounded in the belief that clarity of values and purpose lies at the heart of fulfillment and meaningful impact. As an adjunct professor at Northwestern University's MS Leadership for Creative Enterprises program, Laverne's highly regarded course on Persuasion & Pitching stands out for its experiential nature, pushing students to engage actively and think on their feet. She imparts the philosophy that pitching is not a contest to be won, but a connection to be made, emphasizing that people invest in individuals before ideas. This philosophy stems from her background as a television programming executive. A significant portion of Laverne's career was spent on the corporate side, notably as Senior Vice-President of Drama Development at CBS and Executive Vice-President at EPIX. Her involvement in the CSI and CRIMINAL MINDS series highlights her ability to identify and develop highly commercial and financially lucrative franchises. As the inaugural programming chief for EPIX, she earned the platform its first Emmy nominations. Her tenure as Head of Television at Charlize Theron's production company, Denver & Delilah, further showcased her ability to bring projects to life including three direct-to-series orders. As the Executive Producer of the Netflix series GIRLBOSS and co-founder of K&L Productions with filmmaker Kay Cannon, Laverne's passion for championing marginalized and underserved stories and communities is informed by her Japanese heritage and growing up in a lower-income household. Laverne's academic foundation, encompassing a BS in Radio-TV-Film from Northwestern University and an MBA from Pepperdine, underscores her commitment to being a lifelong learner. Along with certifications as a coach and grief recovery specialist, she's also a practitioner of cognitive behavioral therapy and neuro-linguistics. ________________________ For More on Laverne McKinnon Moonshot Mentor ________________________ Podcast Conversations You May Like Working Identity – Herminia Ibarra The Portfolio Life – Christina Wallace Edit Your Life – Elisabeth Sharp McKetta ________________________ About The Retirement Wisdom Podcast There are many podcasts on retirement, often hosted by financial advisors with their own financial motives, that cover the money side of the street.
