Turning Fear Into Freedom

Dorothy Cook 

Fear… for some, it will paralyze you.  For others, it motivates you. For still others, it’s another obstacle blocking your progress.  But for every one of us – it is always there. In some form or fashion. 

If this sounds like you, I want you to pay very close attention to our guest today. I want you to imagine what it would be like to wake up refreshed instead of exhausted; having joy to face the day instead of dreading another day. No longer overwhelmed by the “little things” that always seem to drag you down. Excited to face the day instead of wishing the day would end.  

If thoughts like that resonate with you, then you will definitely be blessed by our guest today. Amen!

Help me welcome to the program, Dorothy Cook!  Dorothy, it is so good to have you join us today. I do appreciate it! 

First question I always start with is this… other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Dorothy Cook?” 

How did all of this impact your life and how did you discover the methods you teach about stress reduction? 

You share that 90%+ of all health issues are stress related.  I’ve heard about stress causing heart attacks and high blood pressure. But what are some other health issues stress can cause? 

Can you share with us how the limbic system works with the fight or flight response? How does all of this impact our daily lives, just not those few “high stress” situations that the “fight or flight” response was designed for? 

Is there a tool or a way that the average person can say, “Wait a minute… let me reduce this stressor that is impacting me right now?” 

So, if what I’m understanding is correct, you are saying there are ways to actually “re-wire” our brains neurological pathways? 

How did you discover this system? 

Let’s talk about your book for a minute, “Grow Your Authority.”  Why did you write this book and why publish it now? 

“Grow Your Authority” is the title, do you go into any of these de-stressing techniques that we just talked about? 

Can you give us a few more tips on stress management techniques that you help folks with in your coaching program? 

Dorothy, this has been so interesting. If someone has a question or would like to receive more information, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you? 

Your book, “Grow Your Authority,” how can someone obtain a copy of your book? Is it on Amazon? 

I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below. 

Folks, as we said in the beginning, stress is a killer. Stress not only takes the joy out of your life, but it will take your life as well. 

You need to get in touch with Dorothy Cook right now… while you are thinking about this. Ask your questions, see how she can help you to overcome these stressors that are holding you back. Many times in life, it takes someone from the “outside” looking in to see what is actually going on. Dorothy has the training, the knowledge and the experience to do just that – for you! Amen!
