867: Ellie Shefi – Unprogramming Your Life: How to Create Your Own Personal Vision for Life and Business
Often, in order to move forward, we need to unwind from the past. As I like to teach, we must let go of something in order to grab the next thing in our lives and businesses, or to change a fundamental way we look at the world. This is because what got us here won’t necessarily get us to where we want to go next. Today I speak with Ellie Shefi, who shares her insights on how we can unprogram ourselves from external expectations and create a clear personal vision that drives every aspect of our lives. Ellie explains how to develop an Impervious Mind: a rock-solid identity that can withstand adversity. She emphasizes the importance of exploring our motivations and values, practicing self-care, and intentionally choosing our language to shift our mindset and overcome obstacles. Ellie also shares her experience with intentional and aligned business diversification. I am positive our conversation will help listeners examine their personal vision and values to move forward in business and life.
