086 Lindsay Helm - Sit in the Suck


Listen Later

Lindsay Helm is a professional coach and successful entrepreneur driven by a passion for helping others pursue their unknowable potential and face life’s challenges with confidence. After a catastrophic injury left her husband paralyzed, their road through rehab inspired them to create Stand Strong Training Center, a fitness and athletic facility in their hometown, where they train able-bodied adults, student athletes, and adaptive athletes. Success is more than just physical training: Lindsay also runs Stand Strong STRIVE, her online coaching program where she helps you master your mindset and emotions to get unstuck, overcome challenges, and achieve your goals.


In this episode Jason and Lindsay discuss:

  • Magnifying your troubles by resisting
  • Running your business while in the suck
  • What is a strive mindset
  • Getting through a funk

Key Takeaways: 

  • Our troubles end up getting magnified when we avoid negative emotions. The ironic thing about being in the suck is that the less you resist feeling the emotion, the faster you’ll get through the undesirable feelings.
  • Frustration often comes from focusing on what’s out of your control. Shift your attention to what you can do, think about differently, feel about differently, or learn from and grow. 
  • Part of being a top performer or successful business owner is being able to do things despite feeling crappy sometimes. Do what needs to get done even despite the lack of motivation or the lack of positive emotion. 
  • Don’t attach any emotional energies to being in a funk. Simply acknowledge the situation, accept it, and try to see it as neutrally as you can. 

 

“Sometimes you just gotta sit in the suck, learning how to do that is one of the greatest gifts. It has given me a bigger capacity to experience all the emotions and know that I will be okay.” - Lindsay Helm
