What We Lean Into, We Learn From with Special Guest Andrew Anderson

In today’s episode, Anna has an inspiring conversation with fellow coach Andrew Anderson. They compared notes about how they see the vast majority of adults unable to handle the stress of their jobs and family life and how easy it is to slip into feeling like they’re barely staying afloat and are stuck in this vicious cycle of circumstances.

Andrew shares his own story of living in his parents’ basement, feeling as though he would never succeed at anything, to experiencing a transformative calling to write his book. He is a world-renowned transformational coach, author, and speaker. His passion influences each individual to shatter limiting beliefs and transform their lives and businesses. From stuck or uncertain to grounded and free, Andrew's insights give you power as you learn how to level up in more ways than you ever thought possible.

Here are some other topics they cover:

The biggest misconception people think about themselves
What inspires Andrew as a coach
How to know when to seek outside help from a coach or therapist
The symbolism of his book title
Why motivation alone will not move you toward your dreams
Why you shouldn’t compare yourselves to others
