Many entrepreneurs struggle to prioritize among their creative ideas and opportunities.

That "openness to opportunity" may seem like a good thing but it comes with a massive cost: lack of focus. And lack of focus results in a lack of progress.

So if you find yourself failing to get traction or feeling overwhelmed in your business, you may be stuck in the Abundance Dilemma. 

In this week's episode you will discover:

• How to create your own guide for which ideas to prioritize and which to park
• How to say "no" to an idea without squelching your creative process or feeling stuck with previous commitments
• How to build momentum behind your chosen direction so that it becomes a self-reinforcing loop of success

Many business owners struggle to align the calling they feel in their hearts with their work in the world.

You will discover:

• Why having a compelling story isn't enough to bring in customers, and what to do instead

Is it just us, or are there more scammers than ever selling quick fixes to tough business problems?

Why is it so hard to ask for what you want sometimes?

Even the most confident leaders get tripped up with this one.

It's because asking for what you want makes you vulnerable. You show other people how you need them. And that can be a scary thing.

But it also empowers you by inviting others to contribute, and frees you from pretending you can do it all yourself. 

In this episode you will discover:

• How to overcome the hesitation of asking for what you want and make clear requests instead
• Why it's okay to benefit personally when you ask for something, and how not to back away from it
• How to get through feeling out of control or weak, and emerge even stronger on the other side

Change is one of the hardest things there is for a person to do. Just look at how many people out there feel stuck, or might actually be stuck without even knowing it.   And even if you may know what to do in order to change, actually doing it is often another story. And a much rarer one.   But after 300 podcast episodes and over 5 years running a coaching business, Erin has some thoughts on the topic. She and Steve discuss what they’ve learned over the years helping people make real changes in their lives.   You will discover:

• Why you don’t have to become a totally different person to make the most important changes in your life
• How to use internal static or “negative energy” to help you make shifts in behavior
• What inner ingredient is necessary before you can make any outward changes that last, and how to get it
