Here’s my why I do what I do story:

When I first started out as a dietitian, I was so excited to help people feel better and have the ability and energy to do all the things they wanted to do.

About 14 years in, my excitement turned to anger when I discovered that the advice I was giving was actually contributing to chronic disease and…Read More

  Whoops. Is it compelling? Anything you don’t like?

    I like it a lot. Here are a few suggested edits. I think your anger & frustration w/ the system comes through clearly, along w/ the desire for something better. I imagine the women struggling w/ all of these might need a sense of support & caring. While I know you care deeply about your clients. Somehow, I don’t feel I’m getting quite as str…Read More

  I agree with Joel that I think it comes out harsher than kinder. The first section especially comes out strong. Paragraph 3 & 4 seem very personal so I think they need to change some. Instead of saying you were “getting away with it”, make this more about your clients at the time. Something along the lines of “My system was meant to help my…Read More

      I’m looking forward to the rewrite. You got a great story and a wonderful rhythm of tension & release. A little more of your vulnerable and caring side and you are there.

      Hi Annette,
      This is better. It’s still got a little bit of focus on your upset, so I wonder if we can take advantage of that. And I hope I’m not putting words in your mouth.

      Thank you Joel! You helped me see something. I was reading your rewrite and thought if I have to say I care that many times for it to come across that I care (particularly when no else has to do that), then there is a disconnect somewhere so I did some Theta Healing around compassion and changed some things. I’ll do a rewrite and we’ll see if that…Read More

Is everyone getting notifications from this forum? I am not receiving notifications when someone posts something. I have checked the settings and they look ok.

  I don’t think we get notified about everything. You may have to be friends w/ the person or may have to have commented previously. I forget the exact parameters.

  I like Joel’s suggestions. Make it more specific so people can relate. I love from stressed and stuck to calm and collected. I’m not crazy about the blurb after that because it doesn’t roll off the tongue well and it’s more about you than the client. How about something like, “How small, daily improvements with money can empower you to make the…Read More

      Many thanks to @Amy Flo-Yo & @Annette Presley for their wonderful edits. I blended parts of both for the rewrite. I also added a new paragraph to start, because I thought it fit the theme really well. I also included an alternative flip at the bottom of the 1st paragraph, just in case folks thought that might be better.

      Hypnosis has given me more confidence, made me feel more relaxed, and has allowed me to help an amazing array of people.

      I would use but in truth instead of and in truth with the second paragraph. And there is redundancy in these two paragraphs.

Question: How do you keep your program or method intact while still providing client-specific results?

I’m working on my ah-ha/setbacks and one of the setbacks is that advice from friends or books can often not work for clients because it’s not specific to them or their situation. Up to this point, I’ve been coaching from a place of “client…Read More

I’m trying to get better at coming to this community, I’ll work on it! I would love some feedback on my story, I’m not sure how the tension and relief flows, how compelling it is, or if the CTA is too complicated. This is my 2nd draft after Tanya helped me rework a few things. Thanks!

  The story starts very compelling. I would add some stronger adjectives in the second part ( It was a phenomenal success). I also would simplify the CTA. Only give them one option. I love the emojis.

  once again, nice job, I think you are pretty much on-target.I would open a little different, edit a few other places, and add a little more detail to give people a stronger feeling about what your struggles.

  Some different ideas for some of the sentences:
  
  It took me 6 whole years to lose just 40 lbs.
  I lost 40 lbs in only 4 months! I was so excited and on top of that I managed to keep the weight off for an entire year.
  
  But then I gained back 12 lbs. What I was doing to lose weight wasn’t helping me keep the weight off. I needed to try something…Read More
