#707: Which of the 11 High Achiever Types Are You? (Take the Quiz)

High achievers often get lumped into one category: driven, ambitious, successful. But not all high achievers are driven by the same thing. In this episode, we're breaking down the four different types of Type A personalities and uncovering what each one is secretly avoiding. From perfectionism and people-pleasing to overachievement and control, you'll learn the hidden motivations behind your habits, stress patterns, and success strategies. Because the truth is this: the more you understand yourself, the more power you have to change your life. Self-awareness isn't self-indulgence—it's the starting point for growth. When you understand why you do what you do, you can stop fighting yourself, start working with yourself, and create new patterns that actually serve you. If you've ever wondered why certain goals feel harder than they should, why you keep repeating the same cycles, or why success sometimes still feels unsatisfying, this episode will help you connect the dots. In This Episode: * The 4 types of high achievers * What each personality type is trying to avoid * Why self-awareness is the foundation of confidence * How understanding your patterns helps you change them * The difference between pushing yourself and knowing yourself * Practical ways to create healthier, more sustainable success 🤖 REFRAME AI TOOL [Must-Have Tool to Train Your Brain!] www.trishblackwell.com/reframeai [https://www.trishblackwell.com/refra] 🔥 GET 24 MINI COURSES for $24!!!

#705: Increasing Your Inner Swagger

Swagger isn't arrogance. It's not loud confidence, attention-seeking, or pretending you're better than people. Real swagger is embodied self-approval. And most people don't lack confidence because they're incapable — they lack confidence because they've become disconnected from themselves. In this episode, we're talking about: * why self-criticism destroys your natural confidence * how unchecked negativity disconnects you from yourself * why comparison and overthinking thrive when you're emotionally disconnected * and how to rebuild the kind of grounded self-trust that creates magnetic energy This episode will help you stop chasing validation and start becoming someone who actually likes being themselves again.

#703: Negative Imagination v. Positive Imagination

Why your brain keeps rehearsing fear — and how to retrain it for confidence. Most people don't realize this: They are using their imagination against themselves all day long. They imagine: * rejection * embarrassment * failure * awkwardness * disappointment * people judging them And then they wonder why they feel anxious, hesitant, emotionally exhausted, and stuck in overthinking. In this episode, we're unpacking: * what "negative imagination" actually is * why high achievers are especially vulnerable to it * how your brain accidentally rehearses fear * and how to intentionally train positive imagination instead Because confidence isn't just about what you DO. It's about what your mind practices repeatedly before you ever take action. This episode will help you: * stop mentally spiraling * catch catastrophic thinking faster * strengthen your self-trust * and train your brain to imagine possibility instead of fear PLUS — I'll share how I personally use my new Reframe Engine AI tool to interrupt anxious thought spirals in real time and retrain my thinking within minutes instead of spending 45+ minutes stuck in overthinking loops. If you're tired of your brain working against you…this episode is for you.
