Summary

You cannot achieve your way into worth. Full stop. Oh, friends, did you feel the weight of that statement along with me. Be sure to listen in today as Mary and I discuss her soon-to-release (and absolutely beautiful, I might add) devotional, Slow Growth Equals Strong Roots. This is a message that I believe will resonate with so many women. The woman who feels like she must always be "on." The one who is always performing. You know her. Maybe you are her. Mary shares some practical ways to move from achieving, striving, and performing for our worth to the grace, freedom, and purpose that come from knowing our identities and callings are determined by God. Whether you lean toward what Mary describes as the Performer, the Contortionist, the Tight-Rope Walker, the Masquerader, the Illusionist, or all of the above, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss out on! Mary Marantz is a speaker, an entrepreneur, plus the bestselling author of Dirt and her soon-to-release book, Slow Growth Equals Strong Roots. She is also the podcast host of The Mary Marantz Show. She lives in an 1880s fixer-upper by the sea in New Haven, Connecticut, with her husband Justin and their two very fluffy golden retrievers, Goodspeed & Atticus. Listen in to learn more about: Signs that you may have an achievement orientation/mentality. How we must release other people’s dreams and expectations of us. The filter we walk through life with and how that can affect everything. Favorite quotes: For those of us who did not grow up with a lot, a self-preservationist switch got flipped. It can appear to the outside world as selfish or self-absorption, but we just feel like we are trying to survive. So many of us are walking around -we are ears to dreams that we have never dreamed, hopes that we have never hoped , a crystal plated version of the good life that someone else has held on our behalf. I started treating God like a Pez dispenser, keeping the sugary sweets and the highs of getting everything I ever wanted of more of success coming. Never mind the anemic in my faith, in the process. Never mind that what I actually needed besides a filling is an extraction of all the I have tried to fill my life with just so the raw nerve endings go quiet for a while - It never works. Have you ever reached a point where you are starting to get tired of all of this achieving and running and acquiring and accumulating? Then none of the other stuff is going to work.

0:00.0	Hey, hey, this is Allie and welcome to the Allie Worthington show.
0:06.7	It's where we gather, learn, share our stories, and have a great time.
0:10.8	Every week I'll be chatting with a friend who I know, who I like and I respect,
0:15.4	and I want to learn something from.
0:17.2	And after we have that discussion, we are going to have coaching time.
0:20.2	So I'm going to be
0:20.8	answering your questions about life, about faith, and about business. Welcome to the show today. I'm
0:27.4	with a friend of the show, Mary Morantz, who's joined us before. Today we're talking about how
0:31.9	slow growth equals strong roots. You're going to love this one. No coaching today, but I do have
0:37.1	recommendations.
0:38.2	I'm bringing you a song and a new cosmetic that I love. Now, before we get started, let's discuss
0:43.9	coaching. As you know, I'm a business coach and I love what I do. Coaching is where my heart is.
0:50.1	Honestly, more than anything else I do, more than speaking, more than books, more than anything else,
0:57.0	there is nothing like waking up in the morning and knowing that I get to help people all day
1:02.3	long. I get to solve problems. I get to make their life easier. I get to come along beside them.
1:07.7	I absolutely love it. I've been a business coach for over a decade now,
1:11.8	and my coaching is focused on what the individual client needs at a time. Sometimes it's building
1:17.8	and scaling. Sometimes that looks like starting out. Sometimes it's team issues. Sometimes it's
1:22.1	strategic plans. Sometimes it's time management and just staying focused. But the core of it is I'm focused on what that person needs at that moment.
1:31.5	And then sometimes for a season, it looks like life coaching with my business coaching clients.
1:35.8	When things in the business are steady and growing, we work on goals.
1:39.9	We work on their life balance or their relationships or their faith or their habits.
