How Life-Changing Events Help You Reset, Learn, and Level Up with Steph Strauss | Ep. 218

Register for YET: Your Empowered Transformation!
In this episode, we sit down with Steph Strauss, a speaker, success coach, and actress passionate about helping women overcome self-doubt and step into their full potential ✨. Steph’s journey began with struggles around self-worth following her parents' divorce. It wasn’t until her mid-twenties that she invested in personal growth, which became a turning point in both her mindset and career.
Steph shares how practices like journaling and affirmations helped her break free from limiting beliefs 📖. One powerful shift came when she replaced the thought, "I don’t have enough time or energy," with the empowering belief, "I have the perfect amount of time and energy."
She also highlights the importance of community and growth experiences, crediting a Rachel Hollis event as a pivotal moment that sparked new courage and clarity 🌟.
Steph’s “Magic Mindset” method focuses on five key tools: self-love, affirmations, gratitude, introspection, and surrendering control. Her story is a reminder that true success comes from slowing down, trusting yourself, and showing up fully for the life you want ❤️.
