  <title>184: Risk or opportunity?</title>
  <description>On today’s episode of The Elegant Warrior podcast, I cover a crucial concept in the process of beginning to be your own advocate: the risk versus opportunity matrix.&amp;amp;nbsp; Sometimes, some people can be put off from advocating for themselves because they perceive the risk as being too great. When you ask your boss for a raise, or try to lay down a boundary with a tricky family member, you may be worried about risking a close relationship or making a fool of yourself. It’s natural to be averse to risk; in fact, it’s part of the human condition.&amp;amp;nbsp; However, being averse to risk can mean that you stay stuck in the same place, not getting the things you want for yourself. I know what it feels like to take a risk - and to lose! - and I want you to know that people who take risks are generally more satisfied in life. I explain how to reframe your thinking around risks and opportunities so that you feel ready to take a risk in life and to be your own advocate. Listen to this episode to find out how to prepare yourself to take a risk, making sure to control the elements of the situation that you can so that you give yourself the greatest possible chance to succeed.&amp;amp;nbsp; Stay tuned all the way through to find out how you can sign yourself up for one of the two spots left in my one-on-one coaching program, so you can learn how to step up and seize the opportunities in your life.&amp;amp;nbsp; Sign up for your 15 Minute consultation below: https://calendly.com/advocatetowin/15min Don’t forget to  Subscribe to the Advocate with Elegance private podcast here.&amp;amp;nbsp; To learn more about my services and to stay connected, visit me at: Website: Advocate to Win Instagram: @imheatherhansen </description>
