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

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.

How about this?

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.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 yea…Read More

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

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.

Pretty good, the negative money is:” is the only place I think that needs more attention. I would consider chunking down and getting specific here. Sorry some of these are long for space allotted.
* Late payments
* Borrowing to stay afloat
* Scrambling to meet bills
* Overwhelmed by details
* Watching your dreams of house, car, wedding, drift…Read More-

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

I agree with Annette and Joel. I would change it from “Money is” to “Money decisions are…”.

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

Are you coming to the Sig System Brainstorm on Aug 23rd? I think this might be a good workshop for you to join us in. https://joyfulbusinessrevolution.com/signaturemethodbrainstorm/

Yes and that’s one of the reasons I started thinking about it. We’ll talk more soon also.
