S1E13: Book Review Series - "The Big Leap"

Listen Later

In Episode 13, we review our first book: "The Big Leap" by New York Times Best Selling Author Gay Hendricks. This interactive book helps readers conquer hidden fears described as the “Upper Limit Problem” or ULP for short. If you’re willing to identify and remove your obstacles to success, you’re able to experience new levels of abundance, love, and creativity.

This podcast is for you if you believe that:

• Embracing a growth mindset and being brave enough to suck at something new is a must.

• Fear should be acknowledged but shouldn’t stop you from doing epic shit!

• It should be a “No” unless it’s a “Hell Yes!”

• There’s more than enough for everyone.

• Your energy will tell you where to go next. Listen and

trust the process.

• People are so much more than titles and the boxes others put them in.

The top three tips from this episode are:

  • Recognize when you are in the different zones: incompetence, competence, excellence, and genius.
    • Identify which false beliefs hold you back from experiencing your Zone of Genius.
    • Notice when your ULP is trying to self-sabotage you and repeat the Ultimate Success Mantra: I expand in
      • abundance, success, and love every day, as I inspire those around me to do the same.
