3 Steps to Move from Stress to Strength | Jon Rosemberg
The Art of Charm
Understanding and Reframing the Inner Critic
Jon and hosts reframe the inner critic as an adaptive pattern that once served us and can be repurposed or released.
Episode Description:
AJ and Johnny sit down with Jon Rosemberg to unpack how to break free from survival mode and start thriving in your work, relationships, and mindset. They explore how chronic stress, fear, and comparison keep us stuck in scarcity — and how awareness and reframing can open new paths to fulfillment. Jon introduces his AIR framework (Awareness, Inquiry, Reframing), showing how to calm the nervous system, challenge limiting beliefs, and reconnect with purpose. They also discuss emotional intelligence, vulnerability in leadership, and how success and thriving aren’t the same thing. This episode is for anyone ready to overcome burnout, regain agency, and create a life that feels meaningful — not just manageable.
