She Moved 50 Times Before She Grew Up. Then She Put Down Roots on a Mountain. | Rachel Cronin | EP#5

Rachel Cronin was raised in 19 different states and moved more than 50 times before she graduated high school. Her father struggled with narcissism, the family followed his jobs, and the longest one lasted six hours. She found personal growth as a teenager, listening to a program on repeat in a house that called self-help a weakness.She did not just survive it. She turned it into her work.In this conversation, Rachel and Asher use Portia Nelson's poem "Autobiography in Five Short Chapters" as a map for how we wake up to our own patterns. They talk about reactivity and repair, the difference between balance and harmony, why your calendar is the life you are actually building, and what it means to stop moving and put down roots on a mountain.If you keep falling in the same hole on the same street, this one is for you.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━CHAPTERS 0:00 The poem: Autobiography in Five Short Chapters2:29 Seeing the arc of becoming3:14 Leading Toastmasters and finding your voice6:30 The conference: powerful beyond measure7:46 Her biggest fear in building it12:18 The first maxim: if you meet three jerks before noon14:00 Do not compare your inside to someone else's outside17:14 Narrating happiness vs narrating the hard things20:00 When work becomes what others tell you to do24:00 The recovering people pleaser27:25 The hardest thing she ever did: face herself28:11 Raised in 19 states, moved 50 times30:24 Discovering personal growth in a toxic house34:34 The thing that had to go: reactivity38:35 Habits remove the action from self-negotiation41:44 Feedback vs advice47:31 People who do great things get something done50:16 The void that became a virtue54:01 You cannot change your past, only your story about it1:00:45 Transmuting pain into something useful1:05:13 The three gates before you speak1:06:54 Your calendar shows your priorities1:13:01 What experience teaches you not to worry about1:15:20 Do not be the best, be the only1:20:47 The Closing Game1:27:07 Which chapter are you in now━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━CONNECT WITH RACHEL CRONINWebsite: https://onewildstepmovement.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/holisticrachelFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/1CxxLoPFSG/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rachelmccashcronin━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━BOOKS & TOOLS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE(As an Amazon Associate, Memoirs to Millions earns from qualifying purchases.)The One Thing by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan: https://amzn.to/4ooPFgKThe Law of Success by Napoleon Hill: https://amzn.to/4osp8PTReality Transurfing: Steps I-V by Vadim Zeland: https://amzn.to/3Sb6KyQ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━MUSIC CREDIT'Filaments' by Scott Buckley – released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━CONNECT WITH ASHER WRIGHTMemoirs to Millions: https://memoirstomillions.comLife Changing Wisdom Marketplace: https://lifechangingwisdom.comWeekly Intel Newsletter: https://m2mweeklyintel.com100 Books That Change How I Think: https://asheralbertwright.com/1000bookchallengeFree Memoir Strategy Call: https://api.leadconnectorhq.com/widget/bookings/memoirs━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ABOUT MEMOIRS TO MILLIONSAsher Wright is a 22-year US Army veteran, Jamaican immigrant, and 7x published author.
