525. How To Get What You Want (And Not Lose Yourself)

What this episode covers

We’re back today with one the most closely connected spirits in the Almost 30 orbit, longtime podcaster, coach, branding expert, and now – author – Julie Solomon! Her new book, Get What You Want: How To Go From Unseen To Unstoppable, is packed with super personal never-before-told stories, valuable life learnings, and practical ways to apply these important practices and considerations to your own life. Kicking off with a chat on human design, the unbelievable gift of our hardwiring is a theme throughout – we learn how Julie came to understand her own thoughts and emotions, how they got there (discovering her origin story), and how to repurpose or redirect them in ways that benefited her and the people around her. From rock bottom to today, launching an incredible book from a place of groundedness and pride – Julie is a great example of how generous and rewarding life can be if and when we do the work. We also talk about: Human design as a means to understanding oneself Breaking down purpose vs. passion Finding your origin story Humble upbringings and negative learned perspectives Awareness, acceptance, and action Drawing a fine line between empathy and codependency Cutting the harmful self-talk and rewriting beliefs Learning from past, and current, relationships God as everything and everyone The mission and inspiration behind Julie’s new book Resources: Read: Get What You Want: How To Go From Unseen To Unstoppable Podcast: The Influencer Podcast Instagram: @julssolomon Join our community: almost30.com/membership facebook.com/Almost30podcast/groups Podcast disclaimer can be found by visiting: almost30.com/disclaimer.
