Monday Feb 27, 2023

Stress has become an unavoidable side effect of life as a high-achieving woman.

My goal is not to help you become stress-free but to help you have freedom from stress.

The best way to tackle rising stress levels is to prepare ourselves and begin to learn how to recover from these unexpected and increasingly difficult stressors. Meaning we must increase our stress capacity. This will help us to face bigger challenges with confidence.

This episode will offer insight into what happens when we increase our stress capacity by increasing our recovery skills.

And if you want more support with improving your capacity for stress recovery, I invite you to join my Deeply Rooted Group Coaching Program. This is the container created just for you where you can master self-awareness by increasing our ability to understand and predict our responses to stress and develop the skills to compassionately increase our capacity for stress so we can continue to create our epic shit.

EP. 117 Are you STRESS Aware?

Monday Feb 20, 2023

Monday Feb 20, 2023

Stress is everywhere; it impacts everyone and pervades all aspects of our lives. And over time it can negatively impact your health and well-being. How you manage stress is related to your thoughts about yourself, your relationship with yourself, your relationship with others, your relationship with your work, and your relationship with your epic sh*t. 

That is why it is important to be more stress aware and to take steps to try to lead a more stress-protected life.

This stress thing is a thing, but it is a thing that we can have power over. We can have stress freedom and I want to help you obtain stress freedom. Join me for my next master class…

EP. 116 Come Fail With Me! My Challenge To You

Monday Feb 13, 2023

Monday Feb 13, 2023

I know it is the eve of Valentine's Day, but guess what? I won’t be talking about love in this episode. Instead, I want to continue the conversation around failure because I want us as black women to drop the mask, do our epic sh*t, and embrace failure along the journey.

Last week I shared that if we were willing to fail, we would accelerate our speed of implementation. 

So I have a challenge for you. Let's use this week, the week of love, to love ourselves enough to shed the perfection, lean into getting out of our comfort zone and fail. 

And if you want more support with improving your capacity for failure to excel in your recovery and implementation, I invite you to join Deeply Rooted. I’ll be hosting a webinar on February 26th then doors open February 27th. Join the Group Coaching Waitlist for Deeply Rooted at https://www.brigjohnson.com/group.  

MENTIONED IN THE EPISODE -

  • Join the fun- Download the Worksheet: 25 Fails Challenge, then decide how many times you're going to fail this week and share your intentionally failure with me on social media using #25Fails or send your .mp3 audio of your experience with this challenge to support@brigjohnson.com.

EP. 115 Stress and Speed of Implementation

Monday Feb 06, 2023

Monday Feb 06, 2023

Happy Black History Month!

To add to the celebration, I’d like to continue our conversation around failure.

In EP. 104 I feel the NEED for SPEED! I shared that as black women, we struggle with failure since historically it’s a safety issue for us to take imperfect action. But if we desire to do epic sh*t, we must get comfortable with failure and improve the speed at which we process and recover.

Queens, your dream, your goal, has nothing to do with your capability. You failing has nothing to do with your capability. Not achieving the goal in the established timeframe has nothing to do with your capability.

It has everything to do with your ability to recover from stress or failure and speed of implementation to pivot. 

Listen in to learn how to accelerate your failure capacity by increasing your speed of implementation.

And if you want more support with this work, I invite you to join Deeply Rooted. I’ll be hosting a webinar on February 26th then doors open February 27th. Join the Group Coaching Waitlist for Deeply Rooted at https://www.brigjohnson.com/group.

EP. 114 The Value of Coaching With Janae Young

Monday Jan 30, 2023

Monday Jan 30, 2023

On this episode, I'm joined by another one of my amazing clients, Janae Young.

 Janae is a college coach who helps students reach their goal scores and get into their dream schools. She’s been an entrepreneur for six years now, having started her business right after her 15th birthday.

Her story is incredibly inspiring and I can't wait for you to hear it. I specifically want you to notice the mindset principles that she uses to make decisions and how being in a container with other high-achieving black women is the best decision she has made for her business and how it's helping her to solidify her plans to elevate to the next level. 

 Sit back, relax and listen in as Janae drops nugget after nugget while sharing insights on…

  • The power of decision making. 
  • Nailing down your niche and branding. 
  • Taking action in spite of seeing the evidence of success.
  • The importance of mindset as a business owner. 
  • The role of the Deeply Rooted Group Coaching Program on her entrepreneurial journey. 

And if you are looking for support to help you with creating your epic shit,  check out my group coaching program, Deeply Rooted. The wait list is now open. Visit https://www.brigjohnson.com/group to learn more.

EP. 113 When ”They” Talk About You

Monday Jan 23, 2023

Monday Jan 23, 2023

Today we are talking about the dreaded F word, failure. 

As high-achieving women of color, when we're getting ready to do our epic shit, it's not a matter of if we're going to fail, it's when. 

To accomplish our epic shit means we are going against the grain. We are moving in the opposite direction of the crowd, which means we will encounter things that require trial and error to figure out the next best move. Therefore when we go after our epic shit, failure is a must. It is part of the journey. Yet many of us are afraid to fail. 

I want to talk about why that is from a couple of different angles and give you the ability to redirect how you look at failure. Press play to learn how.

EP. 111 When Your Brain Makes Sense

Monday Jan 09, 2023

Monday Jan 09, 2023

It’s that time of year again – when everyone is talking about New Year’s Resolutions, things to improve upon, change or become better in the new year. I’m not a huge fan of resolutions, however, I am a big fan of goals – of dedicated hard work day after day to work towards your epic sh*t.

As you choose your BIG goal, I want to encourage you to set a scary goal that might seem impossible. Not because you need it to be big, but because of what it requires of you to do that.  

For those of you who have done that, you have set those big scary goals that make you think, “ I have no business doing this". I want to talk to you. 

I know your brain is messing with you. Giving you evidence that you are right, your goal is impossible. Here's the deal, your brain is making sense. 

In this episode, I will share what you can do when your brain is making sense. I am excited about helping you, high-achieving black women, create not just your epic sh*t, but your epic life. Let's go!
