The Darker Side of Gratitude

April 22, 2016

Are you overly grateful? Has your gratitude kept you from getting what you deserve at work? Gratitude is a good thing, but is it holding you back? This week, we are sharing a link to a  podcast which explores the “Darker Side of Gratitude.”

In today’s society, we are told we should be grateful and mindful of what we have all the time, but is your gratitude holding you back from getting what you truly deserve, especially as a woman?

In this 28 minute podcast on Bigpayoff radio, Michelle Smith, CEO of Source Financial Advisors, and Amanda Steinberg, CEO of DailyWorth talk about the “darkside of gratitude” and how to shed the mental handcuffs of appreciation and get what you deserve at work.

Hear Michelle Smith talk about the financial implications of not betting on yourself early on when you’re negotiating your starting salary. You won’t believe how a $5,000 difference in salary at 22 can impact retirement by about $1 million dollars in a life time!

What Clients Are Saying

I’ve attended Ellen’s workshops over ten times; Ellen is an engaging speaker and her content is clear, actionable, and immediately usable. Learning business skills through poker strategy has enormously impacted my life, especially in regards to building strong relationships through negotiation. The Bold System gave me the courage and confidence to do what I’ve really wanted to do: start my own business! I can’t thank you enough, Ellen!

– Anne Ryan Career Coach, PokerDivas Poker Club Member
