Summary
Where are you being limited by something you assume to be true? When I first started coaching, I had a very clear limiting bias. I thought my content and my methodology was only for men. If you go back to the first 30+ episodes of this very podcast, you’ll hear the exact same thought process coming out of my mouth. One day I received a reality check in the form of a review from a female listener. I wish I could say that this changed my ways, but the pattern interrupt didn’t come until later. Listen to find out what changed my mind and why it’s not too late for you to change.

| 0:00.0 | The This is 15 minutes to freedom. I'm your host Ryan Eidell in today's episode to stop being so biased. |
| 0:22.0 | Today I'm going to share with you why my own bias literally almost |
| 0:28.1 | cost me tens of thousands of dollars. So bias exists everywhere. Right now as you look |
| 0:37.8 | around however you're consuming this show there's bias that you are living in. |
| 0:45.0 | Now bias doesn't have to be something as significant as racism or sexism, |
| 0:49.0 | but there's bias that's there, like, it's okay to have bias towards enjoying black cars |
| 0:56.6 | versus white cars, right? |
| 0:57.8 | That's a bias. |
| 1:00.4 | There's a bias towards enjoying Mexican food versus Italian food. That's a bias |
| 1:07.8 | There's a bias to enjoying football versus basketball. That's a bias, right? Like part of the understanding of where |
| 1:15.8 | this show is going is having you recognize that bias doesn't necessarily have to be |
| 1:20.1 | this catastrophic event and some that we live with. We all have preferences. |
| 1:24.3 | Bias and preferences of my life or in my world or even by definition can almost be |
| 1:27.9 | interchanged. And so I had this bias a long time ago. |
| 1:35.0 | And really it's crazy when I say a long time ago, |
| 1:38.0 | the better part of 20 weeks ago, |
| 1:40.0 | that I was not supposed to coach women. |
| 1:45.0 | It was just not on the radar, right? |
| 1:49.0 | My message, who I am, the coaching I offered was 100% for men. I'd only ever had men clients before or |
| 1:57.0 | male clients. As I put out an offer in this show to work with me, you know, it was called one of seven, where |
