Brig Johnson and Being Your Own Hero
If there’s anyone on this planet who can teach you how to be your own hero, it’s undoubtedly this week’s guest.
She’s extremely candid, optimistic, and one of the most self-assured people we’ve ever met!
Brig Johnson is a full-time life and mindset coach with a mission: helping high-achieving Black women work through their internalized biases, manage their emotions, and unlock their full potential.
After spending 38 years (!!!) in nursing (a job she was extremely good at), Brig decided to pursue coaching full-time, and she’s wearing the entrepreneurial shoes with grace, confidence, and compassion.
But as you can imagine, convincing herself to take the plunge was quite the process.
In this week’s episode, Brig breaks down how she self-coached her way to her big career switch by practicing empathy, being confident in her capability to learn new skills, and creating self-sufficiency.
She also talks about the power that comes with acceptance, her ever-evolving business niche, and the philosophy that finally led her to pull the trigger and make that big, bold career change.
Here’s what you can expect from this week’s episode:
- The problem with trying to find fulfillment outside of yourself
- Brig’s “year and a half of crazy” as she navigated the idea of coaching full-time
- How giving yourself a worrying window can prevent over-controlling
- Brig’s refreshing definition of a “high achieving woman”
- Combating microaggressions with control (personal change>systemic change)
- The importance of managing your energy and why rest is a revolutionary act
- Brig’s #1 marketing belief - and what we can take away from it!
Brig brings tons of fun to the table and we had a ball recording this episode! Her insights are super relatable, compel you to work towards having your own back, and urge you to hone the power in your hands.
If you’re looking to make a career switch yourself or just want a healthy dose of inspiration to take control of your narrative, this episode will feed your fire.
So sit back with a cup of tea, and get ready to feel invigorated!
