Mindset Matters – Episode #184 – Grounding, Self-Judgment, and the Secret to True Confidence
“Why the conversation about mindset and why is it important? It’s not just about success, it’s not about getting shit done, it’s not about being uber successful in business or in life. It’s really how we approach business, how we approach life. It’s actually all about us and how we view the world.” – Patrick Francey
- In this insightful and down-to-earth episode of Mindset Matters, Patrick and Steffany dive deep into the concept of grounding—what it truly means, why it’s essential, and how to consciously apply it in everyday situations. Whether you’re stepping onto a stage, heading into a difficult conversation, or simply feeling emotionally overwhelmed, grounding can be the missing link to clarity, confidence, and calm.
- Patrick opens by reflecting on the electrical principle of grounding as a metaphor for emotional and energetic stability. Just like a home needs a ground wire to safely direct energy, we too need grounding to manage stress and stay centered under pressure. Together, they explore the physical and emotional benefits of grounding—such as improved sleep, reduced inflammation, and enhanced resilience—and even share personal anecdotes, including Steffany’s unforgettable brush with lightning during a camping trip, where rubber boots may have saved her life.
- The duo also touch on self-worth, imposter syndrome, and how deeply-rooted limiting beliefs like “I’m not worthy” can hold us back. Steffany shares her recent experience winning a prestigious award from the US Olympic & Paralympic Committee and how old beliefs tried to convince her she didn’t deserve it. The conversation becomes a candid exploration of how we react to judgment—whether from others or from ourselves—and how getting grounded can help us respond with intention instead.
- By the end of the episode, listeners are left with a compelling reminder: grounding is not just a tool for managing energy—it’s a gateway to emotional freedom, personal alignment, and empowered action.
