=We talk a lot about what a program costs, what a coach costs, what it costs to finally invest in yourself. We almost never add up the other number: the cost of doing nothing at all.

In this short, honest episode, I ask the question most women avoid. What does it actually cost you to keep coming home to an empty house you don't want to be alone in? What does it cost to want love and keep waiting? What does it cost to finally meet someone promising and freeze, terrified of getting it wrong?

I've been there, and I name it:

Why "doing nothing" is never actually free, even though it feels like the safe choice.

The quiet trap of "I can't, I can't, I can't," and how it shuts the door before help can even find you.

The reframe that turns staying stuck into finally moving.

Short, warm, and a loving nudge to stop counting only one side of the ledger.

00:00:05.920 --> 00:00:22.159
Diane Brandon Moody: Hey, everybody, Diane Brandon Moody again, as you can see, I'm kind of cash today. But today, what I wanted to talk about. And we're doing this marathon between now and when simply irresistible gets started.

2
00:00:22.580 --> 00:00:28.530
Diane Brandon Moody: and many little snacks of information about it. So

3
00:00:28.670 --> 00:00:33.579
Diane Brandon Moody: Today, I just want to talk to you about the cost of doing nothing.

4
00:00:33.800 --> 00:00:40.430
Diane Brandon Moody: The previous episode, what I talked about was, how…

5
00:00:40.550 --> 00:00:53.589
Diane Brandon Moody: When you want something, everything that isn't that will show up in your life and will become an obstacle. If you want love, everything that isn't love will show up.

6
00:00:53.830 --> 00:00:57.779
Diane Brandon Moody: So I also mentioned getting help.

7
00:00:58.110 --> 00:01:02.689
Diane Brandon Moody: And this is what I want to talk about today, is…

8
00:01:03.030 --> 00:01:06.090
Diane Brandon Moody: What is the cost of doing nothing?

9
00:01:06.540 --> 00:01:12.170
Diane Brandon Moody: I know what the cost of Simply Irresistible is. It's not a cheap program.

10
00:01:12.800 --> 00:01:18.240
Diane Brandon Moody: I guarantee you I give a lot more than what you pay.

11
00:01:18.370 --> 00:01:20.020
Diane Brandon Moody: And you're gonna have to…

12
00:01:20.250 --> 00:01:35.179
Diane Brandon Moody: hook me up with the Love Audit, dianebrandertonmoody.com slash love dash audit, in order to get the exact cost. I know it's… I know it's money. I get it. It's a lot.

13
00:01:36.050 --> 00:01:41.050
Diane Brandon Moody: But its value is about 10 times more than that. If you count

14
00:01:41.710 --> 00:01:47.329
Diane Brandon Moody: What does it cost you to stay at home alone when you don't want to be at home alone?

15
00:01:47.960 --> 00:01:49.719
Diane Brandon Moody: What is the cost?

16
00:01:49.950 --> 00:01:55.060
Diane Brandon Moody: of not having love when you really want love.

17
00:01:55.730 --> 00:02:04.210
Diane Brandon Moody: What's the cost of finally meeting somebody you think you think there may be some place this will go?

18
00:02:05.240 --> 00:02:09.750
Diane Brandon Moody: And you're afraid of messing it up, and so you don't know what to do.

19
00:02:09.900 --> 00:02:11.169
Diane Brandon Moody: To me, that would be…

20
00:02:11.650 --> 00:02:16.110
Diane Brandon Moody: That would be the worst, because I… let me tell you, sister, I've been there.

21
00:02:17.750 --> 00:02:19.799
Diane Brandon Moody: So what is the cost?

22
00:02:20.540 --> 00:02:26.000
Diane Brandon Moody: I guarantee you… The cost… is high, right?

23
00:02:27.700 --> 00:02:28.729
Diane Brandon Moody: It is.

24
00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:29.720
Diane Brandon Moody: Yes, sir.

25
00:02:32.170 --> 00:02:33.100
Diane Brandon Moody: So, there we go.

26
00:02:33.460 --> 00:02:40.069
Diane Brandon Moody: what I want you to do, if you are at all interested in Simply Irresistible.

27
00:02:41.230 --> 00:02:43.820
Diane Brandon Moody: Which is a 12-week program.

28
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:47.189
Diane Brandon Moody: And you can stay in a whole year.

29
00:02:47.870 --> 00:02:58.669
Diane Brandon Moody: then I need you to book a love audit. You can find it at DianeBrandonMoody.com, and let's talk about it. Let's figure out a way how we can.

30
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:05.530
Diane Brandon Moody: If you're busy saying, I can't, I can't, I can't, I do understand that.

31
00:03:06.020 --> 00:03:19.349
Diane Brandon Moody: But you're not even letting your brain or God or whatever power is greater than you to help you find a way because you block that. You're so busy saying you can't.

32
00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:27.199
Diane Brandon Moody: You can't find what might happen, what could happen, how you might be able to make that work.

33
00:03:30.830 --> 00:03:37.849
Diane Brandon Moody: So that rant is over for today. I am so glad you're here.

34
00:03:38.450 --> 00:03:44.950
Diane Brandon Moody: And I am looking forward to seeing you Thursday, July 9th.

35
00:03:45.250 --> 00:03:48.250
Diane Brandon Moody: It's seven o'clock PM.

36
00:03:48.490 --> 00:03:49.870
Diane Brandon Moody: Central Time.

37
00:03:50.210 --> 00:03:52.030
Diane Brandon Moody: We're going to talk about,

38
00:03:52.530 --> 00:03:57.059
Diane Brandon Moody: Same man, different outfit, if you've ever experienced…

39
00:03:58.750 --> 00:04:02.369
Diane Brandon Moody: A relationship with someone who didn't work out.

40
00:04:03.020 --> 00:04:11.150
Diane Brandon Moody: And you swore you would never go back to a relationship like that. And what do you know? There's another one just like him.

41
00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:13.010
Diane Brandon Moody: This is gonna be for you.

42
00:04:13.700 --> 00:04:22.140
Diane Brandon Moody: So thank you so much for being here and listening to me. And again, book either The Love Audit or.
