172 The GREAT Strategy for Lifelong Growth with Madelaine Weiss

Connect Inspire Create

What if you could unlock the secrets to mastering your mind and living a more balanced life? Join us as I welcome my guest Madelaine Weiss, a Harvard-trained Licensed Psychotherapist and Mindset Expert, with an MBA and Board-Certification in Executive, Career, and Life Coaching, who shares not only her professional wisdom but also heartwarming personal stories.
As the bestselling author of “Getting to G.R.E.A.T. 5-Step Strategy for Work and Life,” a coauthor in the “Handbook of Stressful Transitions Across the Lifespan,” Madelaine recently released her personal development book for kids, “What’s Your Story?” The book aims to help young people build lives of resilience, performance, and overall well-being, making it a thoughtful gift for families. By incorporating the hero's journey and other engaging exercises, the workbook encourages children to explore their own narratives and develop a strong sense of self-awareness.
One of the core topics discussed in this episode is the GREAT strategy, a transformative five-step approach to personal growth. Grounding, Recognition, Exploring, Action, and Taming (T) are the pillars of this strategy, which helps individuals transition from psychotherapy to coaching.
Madelaine highlights the importance of grounding in belief and creating a supportive space for clients, enabling them to overcome personal obstacles and foster change. The discussion on action emphasizes the Goldilocks principle, encouraging listeners to take steps that are neither too daunting nor too insignificant, but just right to spur motivation and creativity.
