The way we think about our lives is something that can hold us back or propel us forward. Too often, we allow negative thinking to take control, preventing us from reaching our potential. If we want to change how we think about our lives, we must get real with ourselves. What does it mean to be real with ourselves? It means being honest about who we are and what we want. It means letting go of the things that hold us back. However, it can be challenging and hard to sort through all the noise to figure out what is truly important to us. Our guest Theresa Agostinelli is on a mission to change how we think about our lives, and she's getting real with us in this episode. In her new book, "The GRID System: Creating More of What's Good in Your Life," she leads the way in achieving our goals and reaching our potential. In the beginning, all the odds were against Theresa. But her perseverance led her out of survival mode and to a thriving life. She is showing us that it is possible to live a life that is authentic and fulfilling. She is helping us to see that we are capable of so much more than we ever thought possible. Professor Theresa Agostinelli, LCSW, is a prolific writer and motivational speaker. She is the CEO of Glen Mills Coaching and Consulting, a licensed therapist, and now a renowned speaker worldwide teaching the tools of The GRID System. She leans into the inspiration of building community and profiting with purpose for business professionals and those on a personal development journey.What You Will Learn From This Episode02:13 - What Theresa Agostinelli is obsessed with04:17 - Leveling up our game and getting over ourselves06:57 - Building resilience in today’s instant gratification society14:32 - Theresa’s story and the GRID system21:22 - Continuing with our developmentConnect with Theresa AgostinelliLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/theresaagostinelli/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theresamarie.coach/?hl=enOther links: https://10000cards.com/card/professor-theresa-agostinelliCheck out Theresa’s book here : THE GRID SYSTEMSee What Your Obsessed Girls Are Doing and Send Us Feedback!CROWN AND COMPASS | Linktree -  https://linktr.ee/crownandcompassgirls__________Get Obsessed with us.
