Challenge to Trust

074: Challenge to Trust WITH SHARI WALLA

Joining us today is Shari Walla, owner of Accent Custom Drapery in Sterling Heights, Michigan. Shari is a to the trade workroom and is sharing a business challenge with us today. As you listen, you will hear that the challenge may be presenting as one thing – but that there is a different fear and challenge behind it. Maybe this has happened to you.

We are going to dig into the ideas of fear of rejection, fear of being abused in a business relationship and fear of trusting ourselves. Learn how to restore your confidence in yourself to be able to move forward with actions that support you and your goals.

Topics Mentioned: Fear Rejection Ideal client Confidence  Key Thoughts: It's very easy for me to see a window treatment that looks complicated (and is complicated sometimes) and it's very easy for in my mind to unfold it and create a pattern. - Shari (03:37) I would like to get some new designers to work for us. - Shari (09:55) You're trying to figure out whether or not this person is going to be your life partner. - Shari (14:55) This isn't just a dating process where we're just going out to meet people and hang out for a coffee and walk away. We're looking to build our businesses together. - Michele (15:50) It only takes one really bad experience...whether it's our fault or no - just being involved in a really bad experience to shake your confidence. - Michele (27:37) When you write down who you love working with, it is going to remind you that you already have made really great choices with who you are attaching yourself to, and who was being attached to you. - Michele (30:49) So every time that one bad experience comes up, I want you to say, "Nope, you don't get my focus." - Michele (38:11) I know all these things, but it's just really hard sometimes to put them in practice. - Shari (50:43) You have permission to implement it. - Michele (52:20) Socials:
