Episode 052: What Does Confidence Have to Do with It?

What up Squad!

I am going to be productive and launch into my purpose next year… Is this what you are currently telling yourself Sis? Have you delegated your life to some future time? This was me!

Y’all know here at the Pop Podcast, we are real and tell it as it is. Do you guys know that I used to repeat these affirmations that we are told to – I will stop procrastinating! I will be a better wife and mother this year! I will start showing up for myself and serve!

I can go on and on…

But the sad thing is, I didn’t even believe the things I was saying. Why? Because I had no evidence of actually having been successful at doing these things. I had no CONFIDENCE that I could get any of these affirmations and plans done because I had been living as a procrastinator for essentially my whole life!

Research shows that if your unconscious mind knows that what you’re reciting is not the truth, you’re actually doing more harm than good to yourself. Wow!

I’ll share with you an extract of the testimonial I got from the last challenge I ran in October:
Before I participated in the Pop Squad 5-Day Challenge, I knew I was a procrastinator. I was the rush-at-the-deadline woman. Having my type of procrastination identified (Who knew there was a type?) was all I needed to counter its effect. Simply realizing I was avoiding tasks and why was enough to turn me around? I haven’t been this productive without a deadline looming, ever. – Catherine

My programs work. So, if you are listening to this TODAY, I want you to do yourself a favor. If you haven’t joined the FREE  Push Through Procrastination™ 5-Day Challenge, sign up HERE. I want you in there because it is time!

It is past time for us to get out of our own way and start walking in our purpose. So you’ve only missed one night. It will be very easy for you to catch up and join us tonight at 8:30 PM.

This is one of the first small steps to change the narrative in your unconscious mind and start keeping your promises to yourself every single day.

My take-outs from this episode:

  • Develop a system to help you start keeping your promises.
  • Start building some accountability in your life.

Episode 051: Bonus! Live Interview with Dr. Catherine, Participant in The 5-Day Challenge

Episode 051: Bonus! Live Interview with Dr. Catherine, Participant in The 5-Day Challenge

by | Dec 8, 2020 | Podcast

LISTEN NOW

Squad, I had the most amazing time interviewing Dr. Catherine!!!

I’m so so so excited because I still can’t believe how transformational just ONE day of the  Push Through Procrastination™ 5-Day Challenge could be to y’all!

Dr. Catherine Toomer, MD is a Family Medicine Specialist and a community health physician who is the founder of Health Wellness and Weight Loss Centers, LLC, and the creator of Whole-You Total Weight Loss™, a telehealth coaching, and counseling service to help people maximize their health and wellness to weight loss.

In this interview, she gives us a testimonial of her remarkable transformation from the last Push Through Procrastination™ 5-Day Challenge.

I’m normally not much of a challenge person because my attention span usually doesn’t take me through all the days of the challenge, but I thought if I don’t do this, then I’m feeding right into the procrastination that I’m trying to fix. And so I joined. ~ Dr. Catherine

In this episode we talk about:

  • Procrastination is not you being lazy.
  • How profound keeping your morning promise and NOT snoozing is critical to overcoming procrastination.
  • Ignoring your Cavewoman.
  • The impact of NOT procrastinating.

Squad, this short interview is power-packed with so many nuggets of what I teach you. I’m so glad that Catherine said that she felt what she was getting from the Challenge was NOT a watered-down version of what I do, or I didn’t give her just enough so that she knew she needed it; it was like BOOM! This is it! She knew she was getting the meat and potatoes of what this was right from the beginning.

Y’all know, I give you my all. If we are doing something, we go all the way.

So if you haven’t signed up for the FREE  Push Through Procrastination™ 5-Day Challenge, what are you waiting for? Sign up HERE!

Episode 050: Profiles in Purpose: Protecting Your Intellectual Property with Asia Marie Woods

Episode 050: Profiles in Purpose: Protecting Your Intellectual Property with Asia Marie Woods

by | Nov 30, 2020 | Podcast

LISTEN NOW

Hey! Hey Squad!!
Before we get into it…

Good news! I understand that Thanksgiving week took over our calendars and most of us procrastinated to sign up for the Push Through Procrastination™ 5-Day Challenge. I see you Sis… And I understand. So, I have pushed the 5-Day Challenge to this coming Sunday, 6th December. I don’t want to leave anyone behind and in the spirit of giving back to you, my community, my awesome Pop Squad, it’s going to be FREE!

Don’t procrastinate again, sign up HERE for the Push Through Procrastination™ 5-Day Challenge for a chance to TRANSFORM your Life!

As always, I am excited to bring you this new episode. I am passionate about women in business and we are about to be schooled on how to protect our intellectual property.

Asia Marie Woods, Esq. is an attorney for entrepreneurs who encourages her clients to go big, never play small, and to make sure all of their legal ducks are in a row. She received her J.D. from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law; and received her bachelor’s degree from Georgia State University. Asia Marie Woods is passionate about educating entrepreneurs on owning their trademarks and leveraging their intellectual property to scale their businesses. She has also dedicated her legal career to providing pro-bono representation for low-income individuals seeking bankruptcy relief.

As a new entrepreneur, it’s pretty overwhelming and very daunting when you’re getting started. Especially when you’re a solopreneur – you’re doing everything.

Asia shares with us how she lost a six-figure investment deal because of missing just ONE step when she was starting one of her businesses. Squad, it is PAINFUL to watch what you have built be taken from you.

Therefore, it is important that you protect your blood, sweat, and tears from the beginning or take on the risk that someone out there in another state is going to come for you for using their trademark.

In this episode we talk about:

  • What is a Trademark?
  • What is Copyright?
  • Intellectual property as assets.
  • Contracts as protection policies for employers.

My take-outs:

  • Having your business house in order.
  • Every client is not for you. And it’s really okay.

Episode 049: BONUS EPISODE! I Am Here

Episode 049: BONUS EPISODE! I Am Here

by | Nov 25, 2020 | Podcast

LISTEN NOW

What up, SQUAD!!!

I had no intention of recording a bonus episode, but I got an epiphany and I just had to!

I just got my Peloton bike and I was doing Tunde Oyeneyin Beginner’s ride. She started sharing how Beyonce’s ‘I Was Here’ healed her after her father passed away. She realized that her father lived his life in such a way that he touched so many people. This song allowed her to know that he was here and that she can carry on his legacy through what she does.

And I got really emotional…

Many of you guys know that everything I do on my podcast and in my business is as a result of my mother and the incredible life that she lived. But also the dreams that she deferred… And I find myself getting emotional again.

I made a decision at that moment that I was going to walk in my purpose despite lots of false starts. It still took another year to get out of my own way and stop self-sabotaging and finally develop the system that I teach you guys together with my students in my programs.

I’ve been thinking about, this notion of legacy… And I have been going back to Beyonce’s Homecoming. The only difference between her and 99.9% of the world is that she is allowing herself to be great because she wants to leave a mark on this world. She does not want this world to pass her by knowing that she could have showed-up!

It is a scary thing to think that you will be required to give an account of the gifts (talents) that God gave you. What will you have to say for yourself if you did not work the gift that you were blessed with?

Beyond that, how many people will you have denied walking in their purpose because you didn’t do your part?

And because I understand the struggle of being a procrastinator and getting out of your own way, and because I was you, I want to help you. I am called to serve you.

The first step is, go to pushthroughprocrastination.com and sign up for the Push Through Procrastination™ 5- Day Challenge for FREE for a chance to TRANSFORM your Life!

Why is it not free like the other challenges? Because when you pay, you pay attention and there’s no transformation without transaction. I have to have you guys put on just a little bit of skin in the game.

I am excited that we have a chance to make a decision and DO THIS! I used to say that I will get all the work I need to in January because something magical will happen and I will get all the motivation I need. It didn’t work!

So, my fellow procrastinators and recovering procrastinators, sign up NOW!
