Your Limiting Beliefs Are Lying to You (And Someone Less Qualified Is Cashing In) with Sage Rountree

Have you ever watched someone accomplish something and thought, “I could do that. Actually, I could probably do that better!”But yet, here you are NOT doing it, while they’re out there doing it mediocrely. The gap between you and them isn't talent or credentials or timing. It's one question you haven't asked yourself yet: why not me?I'm joined by Sage Rountree — PhD, author of thirteen books, master yoga teacher trainer, and ultra-marathon coach. Sage has built her entire life around this deceptively simple question of “why not me?”It's what got her her first book deal and convinced her to buy a yoga studio she initially wanted nothing to do with. It shapes the way she mentors yoga teachers who are convinced they're too old, too injured, too inexperienced, or too something to do the thing they actually feel called to do.(Btw, they’re not, and neither are you!)TOPICS & TANGENTS— SMFR: Sage's alter ego— How a 20-minute email sent on a whim landed Sage her first book deal— Why pitching yourself is really about solving their problem, not proving yours— Why imposter syndrome is sometimes just self-sabotage in a trench coat— The DNF vs. DNS rule— What your perceived limitations have to do with who you're actually meant to serve— Sage's advice for the person who's finally ready to just fucking do itPOINT OF THE STORYThe only thing worse than failing is never starting. If someone else has it, it's possible — and that means it could be you. So ask yourself, “why not me?” and do the damn thing!Love you, mean it. 🖤SAGE LINKS— Follow Sage on Instagram and Threads— Check out her website and yoga website— Subscribe to her newsletter, Sage Advice— Grab her freebies— Check out her books— Tune in to her podcast, Yoga Teacher Confidential— Her walkout songBTL LINKS— Use code "MILLIONAIRE" for $100 off my website copywriting course, Site Series Sprint.— Join the Point of the Story community on Slack.— Leave feedback or episode requests in our Suggestions Box.— To stay up to date with all things Point of the Story, follow on Instagram and Substack.— Follow me on Instagram, Threads, and Substack.— Subscribe to my newsletters Tuesday Table of Contents for one marketing tip, once a week and Millionaire Moment for the insider tea on how I plan to make $1 mil in sales by my 31st birthday.— Check out my website betweenthelinescopy.com.This episode was edited by Adrienne Cruz.Mentioned in this episode:BTL's Business Beach Bag
