On this episode of the Make Mental Health Matter Show, Kelli chats with Wendi Zimmer. In this information age, we are inundated with videos, podcasts, websites, social media posts, and many other sources of information that give us strategies and resources to achieve anything we want. From weight loss to learning another language, we don’t have to look far to find people telling us what to do. The problem is that no one tells us HOW to achieve more, and we often are not ready to apply the information we receive. We allow our fears and doubts to get in the way and derail our belief in ourselves. To get what we want and to truly transform our lives, we must start by working on ourselves. We all have a power within us that helps us achieve what we want in life. This power is called FORCE, and when used correctly, it can transform who we are, how we view ourselves, and how we achieve what we want. Growing up as a people pleaser and “fixer,” Wendi survived by hiding her struggles. On the outside, she appeared to have it all together, but on the inside, she was miserable. She developed a process to use the power she has inside - her force - to believe in herself, and now she teaches others to do the same. Wendi is an expert in mindset development, a professor at Texas A&M University, an educational consultant, and the owner of Learning Engaged and The Mindset Factor. As an educator for over 20 years, she has seen the impact destructive mindsets have on learning, self-esteem, and well-being in herself, her colleagues, and her students.
