Are You Afraid Of The Word “No”?

“If you're afraid of the “no” because you're counting on that money, they're going to be saying no anyway. Let's figure out another way to get your money in the door.”

- Shelagh Cummins

What would you be capable of, if you weren’t afraid of the word “no”? In today’s episode, I’m sharing real stories from my coaching clients about what happened when we removed the story behind what it means to hear “no” from potential clients. Spoiler alert: great things happened.

I’m diving into the real reasons you’re afraid to hear the word “no” from potential clients, and I’m giving you actionable steps that you can take today, to move past that fear.

Listen in to learn why it might actually be a good thing when you get the “no” – and what my clients were capable of when they were handed the freedom of the two letter answer they were so afraid of. 

In‌ ‌this‌ ‌episode of the Road to Seven podcast,‌ ‌you’ll discover:‌ ‌

  • Common fears that entrepreneurs have about hearing the word “no” and how to move past them so that you can get to the “yes”

  • When hearing “no” can be more of a relief than hearing “yes”

  • Releasing the story of what hearing “no” brings, so that you can step into your value as the service provider your people need
