In this episode, we're joined by Alison Donaghey. Alison is an international best-selling author, successful entrepreneur since 2000, and host of a popular online radio show turned podcast. Known for challenging people to reflect on new points of view; Alison has always had a natural gift to be able to hold space for both sides of a conversation without bias, judgment or opinions. She has started a movement and is proving that with the right mindset, anything is possible. Alison has overcome numerous personal and professional roadblocks in her life. Thankfully, her unique outlook has ensured that she used those hurdles to uplift herself and others while encouraging everyone involved to Think Opposite. Her belief is that thoughts and perspectives on anything and everything (from Government, law, business, relationships, or just life in general) that go unexamined are toxic. Armed with a vision, she set out to teach people how to have the ability to anticipate potential outcomes by looking at every situation differently. Alison went on to write an international best-selling book called, “Think Opposite: Using the Domino Effect to Change Your Business and Change the World.” Which opened the door for Alison to extend her message to entrepreneurs, small business owners, and coaches about the power of critical thinking. Using The Domino Effect Decision Matrix, she has started healing the world. To help reach even more people, Alison created a weekly podcast, “Domino Thinking”. She speaks to guests who challenge the views of her listeners and offer different perspectives on countless topics. Through this podcast, Alison aims to encourage people to confront their current way of thinking and consider different viewpoints. In this episode, we explore: worthiness taking personal responsibility being ok regardless victimhood and loads more.

Are you aware of the consequences of your thoughts?There is a double-edged sword to everything, so every movement that we are involved with has a positive and a negative.

She is a cause and effect strategist and her latest project is called, "My part: accepting our part in every situation that we find ourselves in, which brings us to the place of true empowerment, with a goal to see ourselves as part of humanity as a whole rather than dividing it into victims and victimizers, oppressed and oppressors, thus moving toward understanding the inherent value of everyone.”Alison says that if somebody is being nasty to her, her response is usually, "Do you need a hug?” because she believes that when somebody is reacting like that, they are probably in pain.

Welcome Alison Donaghey from Domino thinking podcast and #MyPart Movement!To receive 20% OFF on her course #MyPart use the CODE " VANESSAWORTHY"Alison is a survivor that decided to flip her victim sate into a freedom state and teach others how to do the same.Here a little bit about Alison:The road to becoming a Cause and Effect Strategist was paved by Alison at an early age. As with many roads the course wasn’t straight and true, but rather filled with curves, detours, and unexpected potholes. As she would discover the road travelled still delivers and today Alison Donaghey helps others through her Domino Effect Decision Matrix – a unique way to suspend one’s belief, consider the opposite, and proceed with perspective. As a single mother at the age of 20 Alison realized that the minimal number of jobs she was qualified for were never going to put food on the table. Thus she found the reserve to put herself through university by working three part-time jobs. She set her sights on a degree in Criminology with the understanding that sacrificing time with her young son now would hopefully pay dividends down the road for the both of them. It was while studying criminology that she began to notice her unique perspectives and viewpoints on the world and how she saw things in a different light. This enhanced way of thinking caused her to switch to social work but again the rigid thought process of the industry didn’t seem to gel with her perspective. This road block was enhanced by the chance meeting of a man who told her she could make a lot more money and spend more time with her son while in the painting business. She left school, began a relationship with this man, and learned the art of painting. Unfortunately, right after moving in together her boyfriend had a drug relapse and the ugliness of addiction resurfaced, culminating in his death. Struggling to figure out her next move and rid herself of credit card debt caused by her ex’s addiction she threw caution to the wind and started her own painting company, Sonshine Girls Painting. Within a few months Alison and her son were completely off welfare and the business was booming. Being able to communicate and understand her clients’ needs and empower her staff was the key to success. Things progressed and the very next year she returned to university and finished her degree in one year. She completed with a Bachelor of Arts and a double minor in psychology and sociology. As the recession hit Alison was forced to tighten the screws of business to survive and this is where she really began to learn “about” business. How critical thinking is the key to every situation and an understanding of her ability really began to surface. Being asked to speak at an event she realized she had something other than painting to offer the people and business owners of the world; the ability to look at a situation differently and anticipate potential outcomes. This was the seed that led to Alison creating Domino Thinking. She wrote an international bestselling book called “Think Opposite: Using the Domino Effect to Change Your Business and Change the World.” Today Alison speaks to entrepreneurs, small business owners, and coaches about the power of critical thinking. She believes an unexamined perspective, an unexamined law, and unexamined government, business, life, relationship…are all deadly viruses. The Domino Effect Decision Matrix is the vaccine with which to make the world a better place. Her outreach continues with a live online radio show called “The Alison Donaghey Show” where weekly guests challenge the views of its listeners and offer different perspectives. Her latest project is #mypart. Accepting our part in every single situation we find ourselves in which brings us to a place of true empowerment with the goal tosee ourselves as part of humanity as a whole rather than dividing it into victims and victimizers, oppressed and oppressor thus moving towards understanding the inherent value of everyone.Get SocialCheck out my latest updates!http://www.dominothinking.com

In the new paradigm of existence, people need to understand they matter regardless of their opinion and as humans we need to take the time to tell people that in every opportunity” Alison Donaghey Alison Donaghey is a Radio Host of Think Opposite, Author of an international best-selling book Think Opposite: Using the Domino Effect to Change Your Business, Change the World, Speaker, and a Cause and Effect Strategist that will expand your mind in ways you didn’t think possible. Through the lens of her own innate curiosity, she ignites and challenges people to reflect on the opposite view. From a very early age, Alison had a natural gift in being able to hold space for both sides of the conversation without bias, judgment or personal opinion. She takes that natural gift to now challenge people to think about the mental constructs they have built and don’t question. Given Alison’s personal experience with life, she is the depiction of resilience and sees the humour in life’s challenges. Today she empowers people to make the most factual decision possible by considering all perspectives and weighing the consequences. She is of the belief that it’s not about following status quo in which our mind expands rather it is in the questioning of our own thoughts that allows people a space to be themselves.

Thought Strategist ... what an ideal way to describe Alison Donaghey who also serves as a speaker, successful business owner, consultant and author of Think Opposite: Using the Domino Effect to Change Your Business, Change the World.

Then they proceed with clarity because they either remain firm in their original belief or they shift to a point of view that they are more aligned with. She can share countless examples of how encouraging others to question their status quo often leads to improvements not only in their world but the world. This way of thinking became an instrumental way for Alison to grow her painting business. When she began her business as a single mom on welfare she had many contrary thoughts to mainstream thinking.
