137 | I Was Ready to Quit. Then I Tried This... with Laurie Shopland

Ever feel like you’re doing all the things and still getting zero results? Like you’re working so hard and wondering… is this even worth it?

Yeah. I was there.

After pouring time, energy, and heart into something I thought would be a win and getting nothing back, I was ready to throw in the towel. Honestly, I felt like a failure.

But then I had a conversation with my friend and coach, Laurie Shopland, that changed everything. What started as a normal Tuesday call turned into one of the most important mindset shifts I’ve ever experienced, and in this episode, I’m sharing it with you.

Laurie walks us through her Truth Model — a simple, 5-step emotional processing tool that helps you go from shame and judgment to peace and clarity. It’s mapped to your hand, easy to remember, and so powerful.

If you’ve been struggling with discouragement, shame, or the temptation to quit, this episode will feel like a deep exhale.

Laurie gives us language, grace, and permission to be human, and then leads us gently toward truth. And trust me, you’ll want to write this process down.

What you’ll learn

• Why naming your emotions is 80% of the work
• The difference between noticing a feeling vs. judging it
• How to use Laurie’s Truth Model hand analogy to shift out of shame
• What Scarcity Street sounds like in your mind (and how to move to Abundant Avenue)
• How to identify the lie you’re believing and replace it with truth (even if you have a lot of evidence that the thought "the lie" is true)
• What it means to forgive yourself for forgetting and why that changes everything
