Summary:
Today’s episode of the Secret Library is such a treat – we are joined by Erika Rasure, an internationally recognized leader, educator, and researcher in holistic financial wellness. Throughout the episode, we chat about our respective experiences as writers who are also Enneagram 4s and how Erika uses the Enneagram in her work. We also spend a lot of time talking about how creatives often wait for the “perfect conditions” before starting their work, but in reality, these circumstances don’t actually exist and we have to be willing to change our conditions and take the next step forward. Erika shares why this barrier alone was almost the reason she didn’t write her upcoming book that she is now co-authoring with Bari Tessler. I feel honored to witness such vulnerability from Erika because this transparency is something that the creative space so dearly needs. Enjoy!
Topics:
* How Erika found herself in the financial therapy and transformational coaching space and when she got the idea to write her book
* Why Erika loves the Enneagram and how she leans on this in her work with her clients
* The shame, vulnerability, and innermost thoughts that many authors face when writing their books (and wanting to make money from it)
* How Erika experienced the loss of motivation when it came to her writing and entrepreneurship and becoming comfortable with asking for support
* Finding a path forward even if the conditions you find yourself in aren’t the most favorable and how Erika came across the opportunity to co-author with Bari Tessler
* The importance of internal work to help make things happen for you on the outside
