I’m talking with Dr. Michelle Gordon, surgeon turned coach who now helps entrepreneurs get past being stuck or burnt out to relaunch their lives. Whether it’s the pandemic, the end of a relationship, a death or health crisis … these turning points give us a place to relaunch.Sometimes the universe has to hit you over the head for change to happen. We have deep-seated, even subconscious, ideas about money and what we are supposed to do. We’ve internalized others’ expectations, and we get so stuck doing what we are doing, sometimes we don’t even realize we could change — but we can. It starts with challenging everything we believe. It takes letting go of the stories we tell ourselves. And we need to ask questions like, “What would it look like if …?” Dr. Michelle did all of these things and helps others make this transformation too.We talk about: Thinking about what we want without doing the things we want — and how to change thatWhy we need to think big to make things happenGetting stuck on pre-conditioned beliefs about moneyReplacing negative self-talk with positive talkSuccess stories of people who made big changes in their livesHow changing your place can help you change your thoughts and patternsBIODr. Michelle Gordon is a board certified general surgeon, author, and coach.
