Turning Fear Into Freedom – Dorothy Cook

Turning Fear Into Freedom

Dorothy Cook 

Fear… for some, it will paralyze you.  For others, it motivates you. For still others, it’s another obstacle blocking your progress.  But for every one of us – it is always there. In some form or fashion. 

If this sounds like you, I want you to pay very close attention to our guest today. I want you to imagine what it would be like to wake up refreshed instead of exhausted; having joy to face the day instead of dreading another day. No longer overwhelmed by the “little things” that always seem to drag you down. Excited to face the day instead of wishing the day would end.  

If thoughts like that resonate with you, then you will definitely be blessed by our guest today. Amen! 

Dorothy Cook has been a certified John Maxwell Coach, Trainer and Speaker for over ten years. She has coached top executives, helping them to establish a strong identity and improve their work / life balance, helping them to reduce their stress, burnout and relationship problems. She is a also a family therapist with over 30 years of experience in dealing with marital and family issues. She is also an ordained minister of the Gospel and the author of a great book that shot her into the “International Best Selling Author” status in 2024. The book is titled, “Grow Your Authority.”  

I know she is going to be imparting some great nuggets of wisdom for us today… amen! 

Help me welcome to the program, Dorothy Cook!  Dorothy, it is so good to have you join us today. I do appreciate it! 

First question I always start with is this… other than that brief information I just shared, can you tell us in your own words, “Who is Dorothy Cook?” 

How did all of this impact your life and how did you discover the methods you teach about stress reduction? 

You share that 90%+ of all health issues are stress related.  I’ve heard about stress causing heart attacks and high blood pressure. But what are some other health issues stress can cause? 

Can you share with us how the limbic system works with the fight or flight response? How does all of this impact our daily lives, just not those few “high stress” situations that the “fight or flight” response was designed for? 

Is there a tool or a way that the average person can say, “Wait a minute… let me reduce this stressor that is impacting me right now?” 

So, if what I’m understanding is correct, you are saying there are ways to actually “re-wire” our brains neurological pathways? 

How did you discover this system? 

Let’s talk about your book for a minute, “Grow Your Authority.”  Why did you write this book and why publish it now? 

“Grow Your Authority” is the title, do you go into any of these de-stressing techniques that we just talked about? 

Can you give us a few more tips on stress management techniques that you help folks with in your coaching program? 

Dorothy, this has been so interesting. If someone has a question or would like to receive more information, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you? 

Your book, “Grow Your Authority,” how can someone obtain a copy of your book? Is it on Amazon? 

I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below. 

Folks, as we said in the beginning, stress is a killer. Stress not only takes the joy out of your life, but it will take your life as well. 

You need to get in touch with Dorothy Cook right now… while you are thinking about this. Ask your questions, see how she can help you to overcome these stressors that are holding you back. Many times in life, it takes someone from the “outside” looking in to see what is actually going on. Dorothy has the training, the knowledge and the experience to do just that – for you! Amen!  

Drop down into the show notes and click the links right there. Get in touch with Dorothy. Check out her coaching program to see if you would be a good fit and how quickly she can help you take back control of YOUR life. Amen! 

And be sure to click the link to order her book, “Grow Your Authority.” If fact, order a couple of copies and pass one or two out to your friends that you know could use this information as well. Maybe you could even start your own little book club to help each other by using Dorothy’s book. Amen!

About your host

Profile picture for TS Wright

TS Wright

Hello. My name is TS Wright, and I am the voice of the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast and author/TV host of the God Centered Concept.

For the past 33 years I have been involved in Christian ministry. Ranging from ministry, teaching and coaching in both public and private high schools and college, I have worked with students, athletes and adults from all walks of life. I have been involved with a host of Christian organizations included but not limited to CRU, FCA and other outreach & church affiliated ministries. Also being ordained in Christian ministry and being both a biblical and historical scholar I have focused on Discipleship, Biblical truth, prophecy & historical theology. I have also authored 4 books, a journal and a devotional series which are all now in the editing phase.

In 2003 and 2004 the Lord cast a series of visions on my life as to what would become the God Centered Concept.

In 2016, the Lord called me to start writing.

In 2019, He cast another series of visions that has led me to now.

In 2023, I was led to starting Podcasting and through divine intervention found Pastor Bob. I became a frequent guest speaker on the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast and being led by the Lord I have taken ownership of the Podcast.

I welcome all of you who are a part of the Kingdom Cross Roads community as well as everyone who is just joining our community as we continue to work to advance the Gospel and spark a Great Harvest. By expanding our message to the NOW TV Network it is our prayer that we can maintain the same level of quality messages and engaging conversations that you have been accustomed to. We thank you for your commitment to this community and we ask for your support and prayers as we strive to glorify God in all that He calls us to do.
