info_outlineHow would you react if you were car-jacked and kidnapped for three hours?
What lessons can you take from such an extremely stressful situation? And how can you apply those lessons to other stressful situations, especially financial stress?
How do you react when someone is suing you for money? When you are fearful of eviction, foreclosure or bankruptcy?
Today's guest on the Crushing Debt Podcast is Lee Roebeck from Johannesburg, South Africa. Lee is a mindset coach who focuses on human potential and success.
You'll hear Lee tell his story and how he used his training and knowledge to help himself, and how he helps his clients, to deal with amazing stress events in their lives.
Lee and I talk about:
- The Law of Polarity
- We Become What we Think About
- As a Man Thinketh
- Michael Bernard Beckwith's three steps
- Painting a Positive Picture on the Screen of Your Mind
Certainly a carjacking or kidnapping is more life threatening than a foreclosure or eviction, but both are high-stress events that will impact you and your family. Lee provides some great information on dealing with high-stress situations, in the moment, to help you overcome any obstacle that you might face.
