When Business is Personal: Entrepreneurs in Relationships

Marla Mattenson Headshot

 

“In order to really make a change in your life, in any main area, whether it’s relationship or money or health, any main area of your life, you have to get comfortable being uncomfortable because all the change, all the greatness, all the magic of the universe happens when you’re not in your comfort zone, and what that means is you’re literally uncomfortable, and it can be anything from mentally uncomfortable because you’re battling with your thoughts, like, “Oh, I can’t do this. This is scary.” Right? You have control over your thoughts. You can choose what you want to think…” – Marla Mattenson

Are you looking to transform your relationships in your life and business? Do you want to break through years and generations of money blocks and old patterns? The guest on this episode is Relationship and Intimacy Expert Marla Mattenson who specializes in working with entrepreneur couples who have a desire to transform both their relationship and their business. With a background in mathematics and neuroscience, she has a unique approach to coaching that allows couples to experience the passion, freedom, and connection they desire in their relationship.

  • How a near-death experience lead Marla to follow a dream she didn’t know she had and how you, too, can read the signs of your life
  • How to continue to have faith and move forward with your dreams even when the fear and insecurity comes up

  • The simple step to take to never have to say “I’m sorry” again but to continue to have healthier relationships
  • How to use conflict and your dark side as as way to connect

One of my favorite quotes from this episode is this:

“In order to really make a change in your life, in any main area, whether it’s relationship or money or health, any main area of your life, you have to get comfortable being uncomfortable because all the change, all the greatness, all the magic of the universe happens when you’re not in your comfort zone, and what that means is you’re literally uncomfortable, and it can be anything from mentally uncomfortable because you’re battling with your thoughts, like, “Oh, I can’t do this. This is scary.” Right? You have control over your thoughts. You can choose what you want to think…” – Marla Mattenson
