18 May 324 – 3 (surprising) Keys to Managing your Emotions
Erin Rollenhagen is joining us! Erin is the founder and CEO of Entrepreneurial Technologies – which is a people-friendly-tech company based in Des Moines, Iowa.
She’s also the author of “Soul Uprising – which is an incredible book that encourages entrepreneurs and business leaders to trust their purpose and embrace IMPACT as the true measurement of success. Erin joined us back in episode 253…where we talked about how you can be strong AND authentic.
It’s a powerful episode and one of our most popular of 2020… so I encourage you to go back and check it out. Since that time, Erin has continued in her leadership at Entrepreneurial Technologies… AND she’s also found herself consulting entrepreneurs and other business leaders to navigate the wild emotional ride of entrepreneurship and leadership… in life in general… as well as during crazy times.
We recently reconnected and as I heard about that work… I wanted to have her back on the show to talk about some of the strategies she uses herself… and well as what she suggests for her clients… especially when it comes to our emotions… and thriving at any time… but especially during unpredictable times. So let’s get to it!

Posted at 15:56h, 20 MayMitch the area of this episode that resonated most with me is the reminder that we must be intentional with our boundaries, and not apologetic. If we can’t get the word “no” out in a kind and clear way, then we can’t protect our wellness and potential to positively impact others at our best! Great episode today!
