Welcome back to Positioning to Profit, the podcast that helps businesses position themselves for profit. I'm your host, Patty Dominguez, and in today's episode, we have a special guest joining us: Sonia Rodriguez, a business strategist and high ticket sales and marketing expert. Sonia considers herself a "seer" in business, with the unique ability to identify the gaps in entrepreneurs' businesses and help bridge that gap. She has a 360 vision, seeing the bigger picture of a business, including the goals, gaps, and opportunities. Sonia's expertise lies in guiding her clients towards accelerated growth and impact. In our conversation, Sonia emphasizes the struggle between seeing the big picture and the little picture in business. Some entrepreneurs get stuck in vision mode, while others solely focus on getting things done without considering the bigger picture. Sonia believes that success lies in finding a balance between the two and making decisions from that perspective. But that's not all. I also have an exciting announcement to make about a virtual summit I hosted called "The Damn. I Wish Somebody Would Have Told Me That Virtual Summit." The summit featured 32 incredible women entrepreneurs who shared their three best tips for starting a business. Based on the feedback from one of my clients, Rosemary Metal, who found the summit immensely helpful, we've decided to release episodes throughout the summer featuring each guest. Sonia also shares her personal journey as an entrepreneur, the lessons she's learned along the way, and the importance of understanding your financial numbers. Plus, she emphasizes the role of personal experience in truly grasping the challenges of entrepreneurship. As always, I encourage you to leave a rating and review for the podcast, as it greatly helps us continue to provide valuable content. And remember, your message matters. So, without further ado, let's dive into this insightful conversation with Sonia Rodriguez and uncover strategies that will position you for profit. Enjoy the episode!

My father was an entrepreneur in the restaurant business but was rarely present in our lives so we always struggled financially. Growing up, my observation of women was that they struggled to be independent, struggled for identity, they had to develop resilience and demonstrate courage in order to deal with what life presented to them. I myself transitioned from Hairstylist to Urban Planner because I knew I needed to become more in order to help women and elevate myself. It was natural to become a Certified High Performance Coach as I take a my leadership skills to help you create the life you desire. I also developed this program after years of seeing women (in the Salon and in City Hall) being challenged with life through divorce, trying to invest their money in real estate or becoming widows during a construction project. Life happens but you don't have to experience it alone.

On this week's episode of the Positioning to Profit podcast, I have special guest Lauren Fonvielle, an EFT expert who shares how EFT Tapping for entrepreneurs can help. ================ Being an entrepreneur is no joke. The ups and downs can be wild, and sometimes we just need a way to deal with the stress and overwhelm that comes with it all. That's where Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) comes in. And, let me tell you, it's a game-changer. EFT, also known as "tapping", is a holistic healing modality that combines the principles of ancient Chinese acupuncture with modern psychology. And it's not just for yogis and spiritual seekers. It's for anyone who wants to manage their emotions and stay on top of their game. With EFT, you tap on specific energy meridian points on your body while focusing on a specific issue or problem. This helps release any negative emotions or energy blockages that may be contributing to your stress and overwhelm. It's like a mental reset button!   Here are some ways that EFT can help entrepreneurs: First, it can help us manage our anxiety and fear around taking risks and making big decisions. Because let's be real, those two things can be major stressors in our lives. Second, it can help us stay focused and motivated, even when faced with setbacks and challenges which is pretty much a daily occurrence in the life of an entrepreneur. Lastly, it can help us cultivate a sense of self-compassion and inner peace. And who doesn't need a little more of that in their lives?   EFT Tapping for Entrepreneurs is an easy process: First, identify the issue or problem you want to work on. It could be anything from a specific work-related stressor to a general feeling of overwhelm. Then, rate the intensity of your feelings on a scale of 0-10.  Next, create an "affirmation statement" that acknowledges the issue but affirms your ability to overcome it. For example, "Even though I feel overwhelmed by my workload, I deeply and completely accept myself and my abilities."  Then, tap on the energy meridian points while repeating your affirmation statement. Start at the karate chop point (the fleshy part of your hand below your pinky finger) and tap firmly but gently on each point as you move through the sequence: eyebrow, side of eye, under eye, under nose, chin, collarbone, underarm, and top of head.  After a few rounds of tapping, take a deep breath and rate the intensity of your feelings again. Repeat the tapping sequence as needed until your intensity level drops to a 2 or below. EFT tapping for entrepreneurs is an easy yet powerful method that can help you manage your emotions and reduce stress and overwhelm in your business and personal life. =============== If you deal with stress in your business as an entrepreneur, I invite you to checkout the "Meet My Higher Self" 21-Day Challenge: http://meetmyhigherself.com/ You'll discover the power of the "Triad of Success" - the 3 distinct areas that will help you overcome stress, lack of abundance and self-doubt.
