My guest today, Anne Marie Anderson, is what my 13-year-old, Charlotte, calls a “baddie” or “badass” for short. As you will find out, Anne Marie is a 3-time Emmy Award winner and was a sports broadcaster. Talk about a tough industry! Anne Marie is straight shooter, and you can tell she has earned some hard-won wisdom throughout her career. I also love how clear her concepts are, and I am sure you will too. 

During today’s podcast, Annie Marie and I discussed:

1. The story behind her book, Cultivating Audacity: Dismantle Doubt and Let Yourself Win.
2. What the power of audacity is and how we can cultivate it with micro habits.
3. The difference between the urgent and important?
4. How do women fall for the urgency fallacy and what can we do to combat it?
5. Why are time and money twins?
6. How can negativity be our superpower?
7. How can we respect our ego and check it at the same time so it doesn’t override us?
8. How do we leverage re-evaluation loops?

Here is more about Annie Marie:
