Have you ever felt like your self-value and self-worth are based on looks? It's a common idea that women of all ages, and for decades, learned to see as the truth. This external validation (from men, society, and other women sometimes) gives women a false sense of importance when we all know that what is actually important is how we see ourselves. Keri talks more about this whole concept in this episode. She also shares more about her explant j...2023-10-1741 minLiterally First Class™How to Stop Sabotaging Your SuccessIn this week's episode of Literally First Class, Keri shares with you three ways to keep your current level of success. When we achieve a new level of success in our personal or professional lives, we might start thinking "it is too good to be true" or that we will lose momentum at some point.

In this episode, Keri shares her experience watching Taylor’s most recent documentary ‘Miss Americana' and the many lessons she took from it. While she is a famous singer and songwriter, Taylor Swift says in the film that she wishes there wasn't a better version of herself yet to be discovered, which is a common thought for modern entrepreneurs, if you think about it.

It's fundamental to be mindful of your time and energy and selective about what you pay attention to. Especially for entrepreneurs, time is your most valuable asset, and you don't owe anyone your time. It's not just a matter of organization and having a structure. Being picky about who gets the chance to have your attention is also a matter of protecting your peace of mind. Many times we are influenced by other people's energy. Keri encourages you to find out where...2023-07-2517 minLiterally First Class™Are You the Black Sheep of the Family?In this episode of Literally First Class, Keri shares with us a conversation she had with her family that got her thinking about entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurs sometimes can be viewed as the black sheep of the family just because they didn't follow a traditional career or a 9-5 job. However, this doesn't mean that working for yourself is easy. On the contrary, it takes a lot of courage. Taking a leap of faith and leaving the corporate world is indeed an act of courage. Entrepreneurs might have more freedom and flexibility, but they leave behind - at least...2023-07-1824 minLiterally First Class™[ CoUpLeS eDiTiOn ] Behind-the-Scenes of a Book LaunchIn this episode of Literally First Class, Keri and her partner Jake Kauffman talk about the launch of his most recent book 'Let Love In'.

Jake shares that because he has more of a calm, slow-paced way of working, publishing a book was somewhat challenging for him. With this work, Jake has learned that less is more. Usually, people that describe themselves as high performers tend to get more stressed and overwhelmed with the "go-go-go” mentality. According to him, going slow, cu...2023-07-0438 minLiterally First Class™Is Fear of Success a Real Thing?In this new episode of Literally First Class, Keri speaks about the idea of being afraid of success. It might be odd, but many people - especially women working as entrepreneurs - fear achieving a certain level of success, which is ironic because success was what drove them in the first place. Thinking your dreams are too big is the first step to stop dreaming. Keri also makes a connection between having success career-wise and having success in relationships. Sometimes women discount themselves and unintentionally sabotage themselves because they are scared they will outgrow their partners. Couples...2023-06-2720 minLiterally First Class™Self-Care for the Season You're InSelf-care means different things to different people. Some people take care of themselves by going for a long walk in nature. For others, a good self-care routine comes at night before sleep. And some interpret self-care as reading a good book. In order to identify your definition of self-care, you must first recognize what season of life you are in. And most people are in the season of slowing things down. In this new episode of Literally First Class Podcast, Keri encourages you to find the season of life you are in right now and adjust your...2023-06-2014 minLiterally First Class™The Nobody Fucking Cares ConceptIn this episode of Literally First Class, Keri talks about the idea that nobody really cares about what you are doing. We constantly worry about what other people might think and say about us, but the reality is that most of the time, nobody is paying that much attention. People are more focused on themselves. Instead of focusing on what everybody might think or say about you, choose a few people in your life - family, close friends, or mentors - to listen to. And in parallel, do whatever you want. This concept also is...2023-06-1317 minLiterally First Class™The Dark Side of SuccessWhere do I go after I reach success?

Someone stepping out of their comfort zone to try new things will not feel safe. As the saying goes: people fear what they don't know.

In this new episode, Keri talks about this concept of transformation and encourages you to take the next step, even if it feels risky. The other room can be dark and uncertain, but what waits on the...2023-05-2321 minLiterally First Class™Big Girls Do CryTaking time off can be a triggering situation for some people.

In the era of cancel culture, everyone has something to say about something, and it is easy to let the opinions of others have an impact on the decisions we make. In this episode, Keri shares a personal experience of her own in which she debated whether or not to join a coaching program that had a lot of “not-so-great" reviews. Overall, Keri realized that she gets to make her own decisions and that when we al...2023-02-2812 minLiterally First Class™Are You a Cub or A Lioness?Women disqualify themselves so quickly before they have a chance to show what they are really capable of.

What this means is: Rather than succumbing to fear, rise to meet it. It is valid to feel fear, but it can hinder us from doing what we want. Fear can make some persuasive, albeit unsound, arguments for why you are unable to achieve what you want. However, you can overcome your fear of taking the first step by analyzing these thought patterns and identifying logical actions to take. 2023-01-3112 minLiterally First Class™Quantum Leaps in Somatic Success™Quantum leaps can happen very quickly when you do the work to get to know your nervous system, address your limiting beliefs, and understand how you respond to situations.

One thing she has come to realize is that money does not change us, it just amplifies who we are. As we are able to acquire more money, it should positively magnify who we are and what is important to us. With this in mind, Keri shares that her goal this year is to re-elevate her relationship with money, and invites you to do the same. As you're anchoring into your 8-figure self, think about she spends money...2023-01-0315 minLiterally First Class™Didn't Go As PlannedBy reflecting on this year and preparing for the next, Keri acknowledges that several things did not go as planned in 2022.

Along with that scary and unpredictable experience, Keri went through a painful partnership breakup that came with a lot of learning and growing but eventually was for the best.

Thankfully, a new year is just around the corner and we can learn from the past year and move forward in a wiser way. Many of Keri's clients ask: How do I know if my intuition or fear is speaking to me? In other words, how do I know if I am being authentic and doing what is best for me or if I am being driven by fear and self-sabotaging? Keri’s take is that it is real and au...2022-12-1327 minLiterally First Class™Why You Have an Upper Limit Problem & How to Change ItYou don’t have to wait until the new year to start creating the life you want.

When you can't do something perfectly, you want to avoid doing it at all or you feel like you need to keep accomplishing more, never feeling satisfied with what you've achieved. It is becoming increasingly prevalent to have this mindset, especially among women. However, what if I told you that one single word could change your outlook so that you can remain driven but also finally feel content where you are now?

Our stressors have risen as a result of being expected to be available and on at all times. The bar we set for ourselves keeps rising as we measure ourselves against others and continue feeling unfulfilled. The anxious achiever is in a never-ending cycle of pursuing the next thing.

In other words, have you spent your life trying to be the “good girl”? Your host, Keri Ford, challenges us to shake up that ideal—to ask ourselves,perhaps for the first time in our life: ”Who am I doing it all for?”.
