Here's what you'll learn:
- Confidence doesn't show up until you've logged real stage time, which means every awkward first attempt is doing more for you than you realize.

- Watching a great storyteller drop you straight into the middle of a moment shows you exactly why backstory kills the momentum a story needs to hook a room.

If you keep getting interrupted in meetings, the real reason isn't rudeness, it's anxiety, and it's fixable with one shift in how you talk.
This episode breaks down why people cut you off in meetings, on sales calls, and even from the audience when you're on stage, and it's never about you. You'll get two different playbooks, one for speaking from the stage and one for corporate settings, so you know exactly how to pace a room and keep control of your spotlight time.
Here's what you'll learn:
- The real reason people interrupt you in meetings and on stage, and why it comes down to anxiety instead of rudeness.
- Where to put your three-point structure when you're speaking from a stage, before you ever open with an agenda.
- How to move your Q&A ahead of your closing, which means a random question never gets the last word on your talk.
- The exact phrase to open a corporate status update, so next time nobody's waiting for a gap to jump in.
- How to reclaim the room with one line before you wrap up, and exactly why it works even when you're short on time.
Pace the room, and the interruptions stop finding a way in.

Being nice and being a pushover are not the same thing, and only one of them gets you respected.
Danny Goldberg wrote the book on this, literally. He's the author of "A Little Bit of A$$hole," and he joins the show to talk about the fine line between people pleasing and having real boundaries, and why the leaders who get remembered are the ones who know the difference.
Here's what you'll learn:
- The gut-check question that tells you it's time to stop people-pleasing, before resentment builds.
- Why pushing harder when someone stalls backfires, and exactly what to do instead.
- The real difference between confidence and being a jerk, which means you can stand firm and still be liked.
- Why companies hire resumes and fire personalities, and why that's exactly backwards for building a team.
- The one thing you should never do at the end of a talk or a hard conversation, so next time you leave people with your strongest point instead of a shrug.
Boundaries don't make you a jerk. They make you someone people respect.
If you needed permission to stop over-explaining every no, this is it. Grab Danny's book, "A Little Bit of A$$hole," at littlebitahole.com.

Your credibility doesn't come from your resume, it comes from your stories.
Most people skip their authority section because bragging about themselves feels uncomfortable, so they either read off a boring list of credentials or skip it entirely. Neither one gets you remembered. This episode breaks down exactly how storytelling does the job your resume never could.
Here's what you'll learn:
- The three types of stories that build instant credibility, and why each one lands differently with your audience.
- How to structure your authority section, without turning it into a boring resume.
- Why a client's transformation story works harder than your own credentials, the moment you let someone else's win speak for you.
- What makes a transformation story actually resonate, which means your audience can picture their own point A to point B.
- The homework exercise from episode 333, so next time you write a speech, you already have your best stories written down.
You're full of stories. You just haven't given yourself credit for them yet.

Your comfort zone isn't protecting you, it's quietly making you weaker and costing you.
We live in a world engineered for comfort. Air conditioning, instant everything, a soft landing for every little ache. And somewhere along the way we started treating discomfort like a malfunction to fix instead of the entrance fee for almost everything worth having. This episode unpacks why comfort is so expensive, how it quietly compounds against you, and how to start building real tolerance for the discomfort that growth actually requires.
Here's what you'll learn:
- Why comfort never feels like a choice, and how that disguise is exactly what makes it so easy to keep picking the easy thing every single time
- The real difference between pain that's protecting you and discomfort that's building you, so you stop treating growth like an emergency
- How comfort quietly compounds, so every easy choice today makes the hard choice tomorrow even harder
- The one question to ask yourself the moment discomfort shows up, before you rush to make it disappear
- A small, almost embarrassingly simple weekly challenge that builds your tolerance for discomfort one rep at a time
Comfort keeps you safe and small. Discomfort is where you actually grow, and this episode shows you how to stop running from it.

Staying Quiet Is Quietly Costing You, and It's Compounding Like Debt
When you stop speaking up, the rent doesn't disappear, it turns into debt, and debt charges interest. This episode breaks down what staying quiet is really costing you, why the gap between you and the visible people at work keeps compounding the longer you wait, and how to start paying it down in small, almost invisible payments before it costs you the next level.
Here's what you'll learn:
- The credit card truth about staying silent, and why every month you wait to improve your speaking costs you more than the month before
- A full year of dragging your feet, what that kind of procrastination actually costs you in momentum and impact, and why no amount of money buys it back
- The inconvenient weekly lunch that rebuilt a relationship over forty years, and what it reveals about making compounding work for you instead of against you
- The small, almost invisible payments hiding in your ordinary workweek that get you current faster than any dramatic leap ever could
- Who you become on the other side of it, the speaker people actually remember, follow, and promote
The rent on being remembered comes due every time there's a room to be in. The good news is you can start catching up today.

Success isn’t owned—it’s rented, and the rent is due every single day.
Most people think one good effort is enough to coast for months or years. That’s not how it works. Keeping your edge at speaking, leadership, or even in your personal life, means you have to keep showing up, every single day.
Great results are never guaranteed or permanent. The moment you stop putting in the work, you start falling behind. If you want lasting success, repetition and everyday effort are your only options.
Here’s what you’ll learn:* Why success, team culture, and even your health are “rented”—so that you understand why consistency, not one-time effort, is what builds lasting impact. * The real cost of falling behind on “the rent”—so you spot the quiet, slow slide that can cost you big opportunities. * How to keep your speaking skills sharp with simple, everyday actions—so that you’re ready for any unscheduled meeting or last-minute speaking slot. * Strategies to build trust and loyalty with your team—so they bring you their best every day, not just once. * How to avoid scrambling when it’s too late and instead stay prepared on purpose—so you turn high-pressure moments into easy wins.
Keep paying the rent, and watch how opportunity knocks at your door—day after day.

Are you blending in with every other speaker in the room? Discover why simply being "fine" keeps you invisible and what you must do to finally stand out and get noticed. Uncover the little mistakes most speakers never see—and what it takes to become truly memorable.

Here’s what you’ll learn:* How to use micro speaking skills like pacing, pausing, and vocal variety, so you keep your audience engaged and interested. * Strategies to make authentic eye contact, so listeners feel seen and want to connect with you after your talk. * How to analyze and improve after each speech, so you’re always a step ahead and never just "fine."

The biggest changes in your life rarely start with a dramatic leap. They start with one small, powerful step.
Change can hit you when you least expect it. Sometimes, it sweeps you up in excitement, like starting a new job or planning a trip. Other times, it shakes your world and leaves you wondering, “Now what?” Discover how to move forward no matter what kind of change you’re facing, even if you feel completely stuck.
Lisa Boehm shares a simple RESET framework to help you handle change, loss, or even those unexpected curveballs. You’ll see why making fun and joy a priority can recharge your resilience, and why it matters to let go of what no longer serves you. If change has ever made you feel lost, this conversation will show you a path back to hope and action.
Here’s what you’ll learn:* The RESET framework to guide you through tough transitions, so you always know your next best step * How to release unhelpful beliefs and relationships, so you have space to heal and make real progress * Why envisioning positive outcomes matters, so you can create hope even in the hardest times * The overlooked power of adding fun back into your days, so you regain energy and momentum even while grieving * How making tiny 1% shifts can lead to real, lasting change, so you avoid overwhelming yourself and actually move forward
When change knocks you down, come away with the tools to rise.

If the word networking makes you want to run the other way, you are not alone.
If networking feels awkward, transactional, or just not your thing, you've probably been doing it wrong. Not because you're bad at it, but because nobody ever showed you what strategic networking actually looks like for someone who wants to lead, not schmooze.
In this episode, you're going to learn why avoiding networking is quietly costing you opportunities, the two mistakes even the smartest leaders make, and exactly what strategic networking looks like in practice without becoming someone you're not.
Here’s what you’ll learn:* Why networking has nothing to do with cocktail parties and everything to do with who says your name when you're not in the room * The mistake high performers make that turns networking into desperation and kills their credibility before they even ask for anything * Why a bigger network is not the answer and what to focus on instead so the right people already know you when opportunity knocks * Three specific moves that build your reputation and your relationships at the same time without attending a single awkward event * How speaking up in meetings and raising your hand to present is actually the most powerful networking tool you already have access to

You don’t need more willpower. Your brain is doing exactly what it was designed to do. And once you understand this one thing, avoiding your goals will never feel the same again.
Everything you do, every goal you chase, every habit you avoid comes down to one simple principle: pain vs pleasure. Your brain is wired to move toward what feels good and away from what feels uncomfortable. The problem is, most people have it backwards, and it's keeping them stuck.
In this episode, you're going to learn why you find some things effortless and others nearly impossible, how to flip the associations that are holding you back, and exactly how to use this to finally go after the goals you keep putting off.
Here’s what you’ll learn:* What your brain is actually doing when you procrastinate, avoid, or keep saying no to the things you know you need to do * How the pain and pleasure associations you've built around your goals are either working for you or against you * Why two people can look at the exact same goal and have completely opposite reactions to it, and what that means for how you need to approach change * The simple mindset shift that turns hard, uncomfortable things into something you can actually stick with, so your goals stop feeling like punishment * How to apply this directly to speaking, leading, and showing up in the rooms that matter most for your career

What if every time you step up to speak, it’s not your skills holding you back, but an old story from your past, replaying in your mind?
That fear you feel about speaking up in a meeting or giving a big presentation didn’t appear out of thin air. Those bad memories have scar tissue, and your brain clings to them, trying to keep you safe, even though the danger is long gone. But you can rewrite the script and show up with confidence, every single time.
Stop looking for the “perfect” speaking technique—old wounds need a different approach. You can actually train your mind to see speaking as safe again, and it starts with a simple, powerful shift in how you think about your past.
Here’s what you’ll learn:* Why bad memories surface before you speak, so you can finally stop blaming your talent or preparation. * How your nervous system mistakes old wounds for present danger, and why this keeps you quiet, so you stop self-sabotaging. * A science-backed analogy that shows how mental “scar tissue” limits your range, so you realize more practice isn’t the answer. * A step-by-step strategy to tell your brain you’re safe now, so you can upgrade your old memories and move forward. * How to prepare your mind before high-stakes moments, so you show up powerfully and leave the past behind.
Rewrite your memories, reclaim your voice, and become the speaker others can’t ignore.

Trying to change your whole life at once only guarantees you stay exactly the same.
Most people create marathon to-do lists at conferences or the start of the year—then achieve none of them. The secret isn’t in doing everything, it’s about tipping just one domino and watching the others fall. Small shifts lead to major changes, and that’s how success really happens.
Focus on just one thing and give it your all. It’s the difference between spinning your wheels and truly moving forward. You don’t need a massive overhaul—just a single step, done well, to open all the right doors.
Here’s what you’ll learn:* How picking one key action transforms your progress, so you’re not overwhelmed and giving up. * The domino principle for life and leadership, so your first move causes big positive changes down the line. * Why most people fail at resolutions, so you can avoid their mistakes and finally get results. * Easy ways to break any goal into tiny steps, so you build momentum (and confidence) with every win. * Ways to get real speaking and leadership success by making small, focused moves, so you become unforgettable in any room.
Start with one domino and set off a chain reaction.

What can improv teach you about showing up powerfully in real life and business?
Imagine stepping into a room with no script, no plan, and no idea what’s happening next. That’s improv. It’s nervous, unscripted, and liberating. Each moment is about responding in the now, while being fully present and real.
You’ll leave comfortable with the unknown, trusting yourself to be resourceful in the moment. Discover how the tools of improv, like “yes, and,” being present, and embracing mistakes can make you a stronger speaker, coach, or leader.
Here’s what you’ll learn:* Using “yes, and” keeps the conversation open and collaborative, so your audience and clients feel truly heard * Why being fully present transforms how you lead, and you never miss the opportunity right in front of you * The secret to making others look good, so your relationships become stronger and more supportive * How to turn mistakes into memorable moments, watch how pressure and perfectionism stop holding you back * The powerful impact of strategic silence, so your message lands fully every time
Step into any room with confidence and make every moment count.

When someone Googles your name, what shows up? AI and SEO need to be working for you, not against.
If you want to get booked as a speaker, reputation SEO is no longer optional, it's your silent ambassador online. Learn how your first impression is now made on Google’s front page, whether you like it or not.
You’ll discover what to do when your search results fall flat, especially if you’re changing topics or industries. Find out how a focused and consistent bio can build trust with both Google and meeting planners, and the real reason your speaking page needs more than a list of gigs.
Here’s what you’ll learn:* How to shape what people see when they search your name, so you instantly look credible. * The difference between traditional SEO and reputation SEO, so you know where to focus your efforts first. * Why using the same media bio every time matters, so you build a recognizable reputation that gets picked up by Google and AI. * Smart ways to leverage every speaking opportunity, podcast, and mention, so you fill Google with trust-building proof. * The power of a “visibility tour” after a pivot, so Google updates your expertise fast and you get more of the right bookings.
Get your name working for you, not against you.

You don’t need more time or another certification. Change starts the moment you decide.
Stop waiting until you feel ready or for the “perfect” moment to come around. The opportunity to transform your life is right now. Hesitation means you’re letting it slip by.
Maybe there’s a dream you keep on the back burner, or a goal you can’t stop thinking about. It’s time to let go of excuses and step into action, no matter how small the first step may be.
Here’s what you’ll learn:* How to recognize the difference between real obstacles and “protection patterns,” so you can finally move forward. * Why making the decision to start, even before you feel ready, will naturally build your confidence and motivation. * Simple exercises like journaling will rewire your nervous system, and taking action becomes easier and more you. * The power of changing your identity first, so your actions automatically match your new goals.
Forget “someday”......be the person who starts today.

Confidence isn’t just a mindset issue, it’s your nervous system’s response.
The good news is you can train for more confidence and to show up as the best version of yourself. I’ve been doing this for years.
Discover how to step onto any stage, into any meeting, or onto any sales call feeling truly prepared and in total control. You’ll learn a simple, science-backed strategy, called Performance State Protocol (PSP). This stops your body from defaulting into fight, flight, or freeze. PSP works in real life, not just theory, and can turn unpredictable confidence into something you access at will.
Learn how music, movement, and mental rehearsal work together to prime your body and mind for peak performance. No more hoping you’ll feel confident. Make it automatic and unleash your best self every time, anywhere.
Here’s what you’ll learn:* Why nervous system training is the real key to instant confidence, so you finally break free from self-doubt and anxiety. * The three elements of the Performance State Protocol, so you reliably prime your mind to perform on demand. * How movement signal safety to your body, so nerves don’t ruin your big moment. * Why mental rehearsal unlocks the "elite athlete" advantage, so you show up focused and in control. * How to build and use your own PSP, so peak performance stops being about luck and starts being your new normal.
Train your body to be confident and step into it on cue.

Who's deciding what you see online? Is it your choice, or artificial intelligence pulling the strings in the background?

Not everyone in your audience is ready to buy and that’s not a bad thing. In this episode, I’ll walk you through the three types of people sitting in every room: the doubters, the delayers, and the deciders. When you know how to speak to each one, you stop leaving money (and impact) on the table.
Whether you’re brand new to speaking or already on big stages, this episode will help you craft a message that hits home. No more guessing what your audience is thinking—you’ll be ready for them all.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
• Spot the delayers, so that you can gently guide them toward a confident yes
• Call out the doubters, so that they feel seen and build more trust in you
• Serve the deciders quickly, so that you don’t lose their momentum (or their sale)
Speak to the whole room, not just the ones already nodding.

Still making excuses to avoid speaking opportunities? If so, it’s costing you big time without even realizing it.
In today's episode, we’re going to back the curtain on the steep price you pay when you let fear hold you back from sharing your message. Get ready for an eye-opening breakdown of the costly implications of saying no to speaking engagements.
You'll discover the 5 critical areas where you miss out every time you shy away from being the booked speaker, from efficiency to revenue to social proof.
Check out what you’ll learn:* How to be efficient - Speaking allows you to reach a group of ideal clients at once instead of one by one on social media or through other means. * Grow your credibility - Event organizers carefully select speakers to provide value to their audience. Being selected as a speaker gives you instant authority. * Create social proof - Speaking allows you to build social proof before and after the event through social media posts and photos/videos. * More revenue anyone - You can generate income directly through speaking fees and also through back-end sales to audience members who want to hire you after seeing you speak. Speaking leads to "spinoff business". * Stop wasting time - The longer you wait and make excuses, the more you are delaying your impact. Speaking allows you to make a bigger impact in less time.
If you feel called to take the stage but continue to hesitate, this episode is an urgent wake-up call and a roadmap for getting past the excuses to boldly say YES.

The High Vibe Myth: Why Being Positive Alone Won't Grow Your Business
Does simply radiating positivity actually attract and abundance of clients and grow your business? Hold on to your latte....I got news for you.
While being joyful and optimistic certainly has its place, many self-help gurus preach a “high vibe” doctrine that is oversimplified and even counterproductive. In this myth-busting episode, we unravel the flawed logic behind this movement.
Rather than vibing higher, today’s savvy entrepreneurs are embracing their inner thought leader. They’re building authority by sharing bold opinions, unique perspectives, and solutions that make their audience sit up and take notice.
Here's what we'll uncover:* The “high vibe” philosophy encourages suppressing natural negative emotions. But creating powerful connections requires authenticity.. * Thought leadership is about boldly shining your own light, not dimming it to match the crowd. Your different way of thinking is exactly what makes you stand out. * Surrounding yourself with a diversity of viewpoints expands your mind and gives you more insightful solutions to share. An echo chamber of “high vibe” thinkers breeds stagnation.
The bottom line? Don't just smile wider. Speak your provocative truth. You'll attract raving fans eager for your wisdom, vibes be damned.

How would you like to add 30, 40 or 50 emails to your list by people who really want to learn from you? What if I told you that could happen for you in less than 60 minutes?
Today we’re talking about growing your email list with the right subscribers. Because when you’re list building, quality trumps quantity.
The people on your list want to hear and learn from you. When you have an opening for a new client or launching a group program, your list is full of pre-qualified leads.
Unlike rented social media platforms that have algorithms that change weekly and daily to keep you guessing, your email list is your private property.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
-
Speaking is the easiest way to grow your email and leads list with quality people who have the problem you solve. Joining your list is how you can continue deepening the relationship and turn them into paying customers.
-
Your lead magnet needs to be a solution that answers the problem your audience is having. How to use this as your call to action to taking that next step with you after you’re finished speaking
-
Speaking places you in the front of rooms filled with your ideal clients and people who are interested in your expertise. Encouraging your audience to stay in touch and learn more is why they’re saying yes to your list.

Business growth and nature have more in common than meets the eye.
Let’s explore the parallels between the seasons of nature and the cycles of business. Nature experiences a continuous cycle of change, from the blooms of spring to the harvest of autumn, and finally the hibernation of winter.
Similarly, businesses experience their own set of seasons, from the growth and expansion of a startup to the challenges of sustaining success in a competitive market.
But what can we learn from nature's changing seasons, and how can you apply those lessons to your businesses?
In this episode, we'll dive into the different stages of business growth, the challenges that come with each phase, and strategies for adapting to change.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- Life and business growth aren’t all roses. In order to enjoy those sweet smelling flowers you need to put in the effort and give the plant exactly what it needs: nutrients, water, sunlight, and eventually rest.
- When life’s circumstances force you and your business into a winter hibernation, and what that can look like for you.
- How you can use the various seasons of your business for expansion, downsizing, and shifting when you see changes in the industry, your interests alter, so that you’re able to adapt accordingly.

Decide the style or brand of speaker you’ll be and not wait for others to tell you.
If there’s one thing I know, it’s easier for you to be you than to mimic or copy someone else. Deciding on the type of speaker you’ll be and how you’ll make the audience feel is no exception.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- From my days coaching high level executives, I’d ask them this one question that helped open their eyes to the possibilities.
- Your “style” becomes the lens that you look at your presentation to keep yourself on point and on brand.
- Stepping into and BEing that speaker becomes easy when you teach your subconscious mind who and what to step into.
PLUS, you’ll never go wrong being you and your style of speaker.

Improv is the unknown and isn’t that what life is.
Embracing the unknown and being able to go with the flow will serve you in so many areas of your life.
Improv in theatre is when the plot, characters and dialogue of a game, scene or story are made up in the moment. But improv goes beyond the theatre stage; it’s life.
Speaking, wither in person or virtually is improv. One of the things I teach my clients is how to handel the unknown while delivering your presentation, so that they always look like the pro.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- How improv isn’t just reserved for the acting world and how you can use these improve skills in your life and business.
- How improvisational skills can be used when speaking to audiences, so that you look like the pro and expert in the room.

Your current situation is directly related to your current habits.
Your day consists of a string of habits all day long. Your subconscious brain, like your personal assistant, wants to do as much on auto pilot and not bother you with “thinking” what to do next. Those habits are either pulling you toward or away from the goals and dreams you’re trying to work towards.
Each new level requires new habits. In this episode, I talk about how to determine your current habits and if they’re the right habits to get you to achieving your goals.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- How to evaluate your current habits by honestly looking at how you use your time and money. Your calendar and bank statements don’t lie.
- Track your time using the Time Tracking Sheet here for free.
- Look at the symptoms your life and business are showing to determine your current habits. Similar to annual blood work, your business has symptoms that you can look at: roster of clients, # of weekly sales calls, profitability to name a few.
- What got you here, won’t get you there. Determine your end goal and what habits you’ll need to have that end goal.
PLUS, two valuable tips to get you putting the habits you need to achieve your goals and dreams, because you deserve to live your very best life.

Join us as we explore:
- The key question to ask yourself to identify the right people to spend time with
- The benefits of belonging to a mastermind or community and how it can support your business growth

Let’s face it. People hire EXPERTS. And there are 7,500 opportunities a day to highlight yourself as one.
Yes, that’s the magic of being a speaker! When you’re booked for events (in person and virtually), you’re positioned as the expert and your audience are pre-qualified leads.
What most entrepreneurs don’t know is this opportunity to speak happens 7,500 every single day and that’s just here in the US. Imagine the opportunities globally.
To top it off, you don’t need to have any previous experience in speaking! And you don;t need to wait till you’ve been in business for so many years before you get started speaking. What you do need is to know how to get booked for these events.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How you can tap into these 7,500+ opportunities
- Right now you have a warm list of places to reach out to today, hang around others so you can actually start filling your calendar with bookings.
- My theory on pitching yourself to speak to associations and events that actually works and builds relationships without sounding spammy.

Looking back to move forward with purpose and intentionality!
This has been a year of both ups and downs. I’m not disappointed this chapter is coming to end. Along with my love-hate relationships with rollercoasters, it’s a great metaphor for life. Learning from the ups and downs is where the valuable lessons are to utilize in the future.
As a coach, I’m always stressing to my clients to look back to move forward. Let’s look back on the past 365 days to move into the next 365.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- How I lost sight of a goal because it wasn’t something I was tracking very well, which allowed it to fall off my radar. Here’s exactly how I reignited that goal and the lessons I learned you can use in reaching your goals this year.
- How speaking up without thinking has moved me forward multiple times in my business. This is exactly how I became the co-host of the Contagious Leadership Show, a weekly live show.
- Why I took my unique process for crafting speeches with private clients and put it into an 8-week course. What I learned from the process about myself and how it’s helping more people at once get their message out into the world. To get on the waitlist for the next round of In Demand Signature Speech go to www.SpeakAndStandOut.com/SS
- How my human design both helps me and can hold me back.
Here’s to your great year filled with success and sharing your message!

Get off the social media treadmill to nowhere and start making an impact.
Speaking, in person or virtual is never a one-and-done event. As a matter of fact, when you’re the hired speaker at an event your audience is 96% more likely going to remember you and 67% likely to refer you to someone who needs your services.
In this episode, I dive into exactly how one event will literally open more doors for you in the future. I’m sharing my own experience, along with a client’s story, who overcame her fear of speaking and is now considered the Famous Home Organizer.
Maybe you’d like to go from speaking to TV to being hired to write a book for your industry to becoming an Amazon Best Seller and creating an evergreen course. Yes? Well, let’s dive in.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- Unlike other forms of social media where folks are scrolling by, speaking allows you to have all eyes and ears on you. That captive audience will remember you.
- Audiences will follow you, join your email list, visit your website, and remember you the next time they need to hire someone with your expertise.
- Plus, I’m sharing a couple of real-life stories of myself and clients where one speaking event lead to more opportunities.
Give your business the gift that makes a difference for you and your audience.

Your confidence can be as natural and normal to you if you start teaching yourself how.
Being confident and comfortable in front of one, two, or a crowd can become your new normal. It takes a few intentional steps to get yourself in front of the right audience to own your expertise and get hired for your expertise.
Your new identity can be that business owner who gets in front of a group of qualified leads, builds that know-like-trust factor, and grows your businesses the FAST way.
Stop waiting for someday, because that bus is not running anymore.

Stories sell ideas, products, services, and beliefs! Tell the right story.
Telling yourself the right story is one story you need to be repeating to yourself but what about others? Stories are mental picture books that help your audience see, hear, and feel themself inside your story.
Sharing your story is part of building the know, like, and trust with others. Your story needs to be a part of your marketing plan.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- 81% of people want to write a book and share their stories. Few actually write or decide to tell their story and why you don’t need to be a part of that group.
- How stories need to be a part of your selling cycle and used when leading and influencing others.
- What your audience “sees” when they hear your story and the evidence it gives them.
PLUS, why do you only need a few stories to tell again and again...

Clients hire experts and speaking positions you as the expert. Now what?
What do you say when you have that opportunity to be in front of an audience filled with quality leads?
If you’ve been feeling frustrated by the lackluster results social media posting is providing for you, then it’s time to speak to a crowd of quality leads. This is your opportunity to demonstrate your vast knowledge and what it’s like to work with you. Afterall, speaking builds that know-like-trust factor instantly.
In this episode, I’ll unpack exactly what you need to say to attract or pull in the perfect prospects and push away the others. Those that you’re pushing away may not be interested and they can and will talk and refer others to you.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- Understand who your pulling and who you’re pushing away, so that only the right people inquire about working with you.
- Learn exactly what to say (and a few examples) to help you draw in that interest in your work and services so that sales calls are so much easier.
- Why my unique push and pull will be your best sales skill and fill up your client roster with a waiting list.

Digging too many holes, while looking for gold is costing you precious time and energy. It’s the perfect strategy to stay unseen and invisible. Ever hear that phrase, 3 feet from gold? It’s not just a phrase but it’s a strategy I see so many people using. 3 feet from gold is giving up on something before it even had a chance to work.
This week’s episode is about focusing your time, energy, and money and seeing the fruits of your labor (as they say) flourish. After all, a farmer doesn’t give up on his crops 5 days after he planted the seeds and neither should you.
Check out what you’ll learn: How spreading yourself thin is the perfect strategy to waste time and energy. Digging for gold in your backyard and never really committing to the hole is exactly what you’re doing in all those programs. Why you should stick to one strategy and when to know it’s time to course correct
PLUS, keeping yourself “busy” is a great way to look like you’re working hard and not get the results you “claim” you want.

Self doubt is the #1 killer of a great idea, business or goal. Don't let self doubt be the guide in your life. Jessica is the Personal Transformation Coach of Wright Life Coaching. She lives in the Seattle area with her husband and their dachshund, Hershey. She enjoys cooking, baking, crafting, and drinking coffee.
Jessica is obsessed with degrees and programs that have the word “transformation” in them because she believes in seeking continual growth and learning how to embrace change. It's been said that she takes no shit but does no harm. She's on a mission to help people believe that they can make a big difference in the world once they learn how to reframe their challenges and show up in their life in a way that makes them excited.
She truly believes she’s the funniest person she knows and always wants to be around other changemakers, but can often be found narrating the thoughts inside every dog’s head that she sees.

Perfectionism and the desire to be good enough I had this belief, I needed to show up or at least appear to be perfect in the outside world. The truth is, deep down inside being perfect is a race you’ll never win. I discovered that by giving up my need to be perfect. I got so much more, including clients, abundance, and opportunity.
I dive deep into this perfect topic (pun intended) and if you feel the need to be perfect I’m sure you’ll walk away with a few tips to try and ditch perfectionism.
Check out what you’ll learn: How perfectionism showed up at the beginning of my speaking career and why I felt the need to be perfect
What gifts were available to me once I dropped the need to be perfect and how it will work for you also
How you can get started today getting your message out there while embracing and loving the very unique version of you, that no one else can ever mimic.

If you’re a high-achiever, you’re always on the lookout for that edge to goal setting. Feel like your thoughts and ideas are all over the place? You got a thousand ideas of what to share in your keynote presentation, podcast interviews or videos. Whee do you begin and even better, where do you draw the line? In this episode, I’m discussing this study that was done on children at a playground with and without boundaries. The first time I heard about this study, I found it fascinating. The findings are a great example of human behavior and you know how I geek out on neuroscience.
Check out what you’ll learn: The Playground study can be https://www.asla.org/awards/2006/studentawards/282.html (found here.) How you can use boundaries to craft a presentation that gets you booked on repeat. Also, consider how these findings can be used in other areas of your life.

There’s a right way and a wrong to pitch for those elusive free publicity moments. Whether you’re pitching yourself for podcasts, speaking events or TV, you’ll want to follow these guidelines to hear YES. This week I’ve brought on Christina Nicholson, a mother of three, TV host, and business owner who knows more about pitching since she has her own PR Agency.
Christina started her PR agency, Media Maven, after working as a TV anchor and reporter for more than 10 years with an infant and toddler at home. In four years, she grew Media Maven to a million-dollar business with a remote team… and added another baby at home during that time!
Christina is also the host of the Become A Media Maven podcast and the founder of Podcast Clout, a podcast database that makes it easier for PR professionals to build podcast pitch lists.
In Boca Raton, Christina gave a TEDx talk titled, “Fake News: It’s Your Fault” that has tens of thousands of views on YouTube.
You can still see her in front of the camera as a host on Lifetime TV, in national commercials, on the TEDx stage, and read her work online in Huff Post, Thrive Global, Inc. Magazine, Business Insider, Fast Company, and Boss Babe. She was selected as an Oprah Magazine Insider and Ambassador out of thousands of applicants.

Like it or not, you're speaking every day and therefore, you're already a speaker. When you hear about being a speaker what comes first into mind? Right, a person on a stage speaking to a large audience. In this episode of Be In Demand, we are going to redefine that. And why you as a business owner, as a salesperson, or even as a virtual assistant are already a speaker.
Check out what you’ll learn:
1:11 Why your everyday job is a form of speaking and how it’ll help you boost your confidence.
6:20 The preconceived idea of speaking vs. what it really is
8:33 Speaking comes in many sizes, shapes, and forms. Your job is to identify where you’re already speaking. It’s time to redefine what speaking is for you, your career, your brand, and your business.
11:02 The benefit of knowing where you’re already speaking that you don’t perceive as speaking yet.
Again, you're speaking whether you realize it or not all day and every single day so therefore you are a speaker.

Being the best kept secret is hurting your business and killing your confidence. Let’s talk about the ABC’s of visibility and how to start using the ladder approach to getting known and seen by your ideal clients.
Today I had a conversation with Lisa Simone Richards, a PR & Visibility Strategist for online coaches who want to get seen everywhere.
Through her free workshops, masterclasses and mentorship program, she gives you the insider secrets on how to get exposure and reach more people without spinning on social media or wasting more money on Facebook ads.
Her clients learn the lather-rinse-repeat formula for more visibility which makes them more sales. They go from invisible to in-demand getting interviewed on top podcasts, partnering with big names in their industry and building their authority expert status getting featured on major media like FOX, NBC, Forbes, Inc., and more.

If you’re like most people, you’ve got some beliefs that are actually conflicting each other. Thoughts and beliefs swirl around in the mind like a whirlpool. Our beliefs conflict and often contradict one another. They trigger another, creating confusing situations where you don’t know what to say or do next.
Take for example what you think it takes to start leveraging speaking in your business to get known, seen as an authority and hired by your ideal clients. Maybe you’re waiting to be asked, waiting till enough time goes by or believe you have to work hard before using another tool like speaking.
PLUS, I’ll share a trick for noticing those pesky beliefs and how to change them to pull you forward.

You only have a few seconds to capture your audience’s attention and intrigue them to continue listening. You may or may not already know, it’s getting harder and harder to grab your audience’s attention with all the demands on our attention these days. That’s exactly why you need to start every presentation off on the right foot. Your opening must have the audience want to put down their phone, ignore that last “bing” and be fully present with you, the expert.
In this episode I share with you what NOT to do and what to do. When this episode is finished, you’ll confidently know why your first words are so important to making a great impression and you’ll look like you’ve got years of public speaking and creating video experience.
Here’s what you'll learn:

- Those first 30 seconds are critical to grabbing the attention of your audience and get them to lean in and keep listening. This is one of the modules in my program In Demand SIgnature Speech.
- It’s a little different when hosting your own webinars, where not everyone logs on early. Learn exactly what you can do and other tips to engage the audience and keep them on till the end to hear your offer.

If you want to stand out in any industry or company, learn to speak and communicate with confidence. Whether you’re a careerist, employed by an organization or working for yourself and building your own company, public speaking skills will have you standing out, being seen and the one that gets promoted and hired. From my executive coaching day, I know as you climb the corporate ladder, the more meetings you’ll attend and will need to speak up. Bright people get passed over for promotions because they didn’t want to stand out and speak up. After our work together they became more confident speaking to one and many. Career changer! Speaking is the fastest way to grow your business. The time to get seen and heard is right now. Stop struggling to build your business and fill your client roster, when you can easily be positioned as the expert and monetize your authority.
Check out this episode to learn more how speaking skills changed my life and how you can learn from the steps I took to now call myself a ‘reformed shy gal.’
Here’s a snippet of what you’ll learn:
- Most people aren’t afraid of speaking in public, they’re afraid of what others will think. That internal judgment is holding you back and here’s how to overcome that judgment.
- Speaking and communication skills never go out of style. Learn how to leverage these skills to elevate your personal brand to get promoted and hired by your ideal clients.
- If you’re ready to get started, here are a few tips to get you started a little step at a time that you can incorporate into your career and business easily today.

Improving your health and growing your business have more in common than meets the eye.
3 weeks on a restricted diet to cleanse my body gave me invaluable lessons to growing my business. The recommendation for the diet came at an important time in my journey to remain healthy and vibrant.
My health has always been a top priority of mine. I took a good look at how I prepared for this cleanse, had a start and finish date, set myself up for success and the data I collected along the way. I applied those exact principles to building my business.
How you do one thing, is how you do everything.
Besides releasing toxins and unwanted weight, I learned a great deal about growing a successful and profitable business. In this episode, I share the lessons I learned to improve my health and how growing my business is the same.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- Doing the work and working the plan isn’t always glamorous and the results are never instantaneous.
- Any change starts on the inside before it’s ever seen on the outside by others. How your inside is the foundation to creating the results on the outside, which continues to feed your motivation and enthusiasm.
- How making a decision, going all in on that decision and seeing yourself at the finish line is exactly how all goals are achieved. There’s strategy and action behind every goal.
PLUS, I was launching a new program while in the middle of my cleanse and how that kept me busy.

Who you believe you are is what the world sees and feels.
It might seem trivial to start calling yourself a speaker even before you give your first speech but it makes all the difference in so many ways. Your identity is what you believe about yourself and impacts the way you’re showing up in the world and online. If you're waiting to call yourself a coach, consultant or speaker, you’re working against the current.
Learn how stepping into what you’ve been called to do and how you serve people will make a bigger impact with those you’re here to help. You acknowledging and owning the identity is the first step into you and those who are going to hire you feel comfortable and confident in their decision.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- What you call yourself is as important if not more so then the experience you have. This is especially true with speaking, because you don’t become a speaker after so many speeches.
- Your identity plays a huge role in how your show up and he energy you give off to the world.
- How fully embodying your identity will make those who are booking and hiring you feel more confident in their decision, which will get you more bookings.

The hardest and most gratifying work you’ll ever do is on the person you’re becoming.
That’s what I believe and I walk my talk. My own personal journey has allowed me to find and dismantle what once kept me small. Walking this path and doing the work allows me to see exactly what the blindspots are that are keeping my clients from moving forward in pursuing their dreams. It’s these very things that also prevent them from deeply connecting with their audience when they speak.
This episode is about how the self work is never a wasted journey and touches so many areas of your life.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- How not feeling worthy of anything puts you on the hamster wheel to prove yourself constantly and what you can do about it.
- Learning to love yourself, leads to trusting yourself which is key to building a strong foundation for everything in your life.
- How all of my personal growth, experience and observations make me a better coach, person and speaker.
- The results my clients get when we work today is life changing because I see the signs what we need to work on to help them show up 110% as the real version of themselves.

What others say about you has nothing to do with you personally.
Too many times I see people taking feedback as a personal judgment on them and their character. That’s not what feedback is at all and it took me a long time to understand that.
Today, I see feedback through a different lense and it’s the way I support my clients in reviewing feedback as well. I’ll take you BTS as I review feedback from a recent presentation and you’ll hear what I’ll do next time as a result of one person’s honest feedback.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- Feedback is never about you personally and how to see it through the lense of the person giving the feedback
- How I appreciate the neutral and not so positive feedback for my next speech. You can apply this theory to programs you run.
- How to be curious when reviewing feedback and what to do afterwards that will get you more opportunities, from speaking gigs to more clients.
PLUS, I’m walking you through the feedback I got from a recent presentation.

Stories sell ideas, products, services and beliefs! Tell the right story.
Telling yourself the right story is one of the stories that you need to be repeating to yourself but what about others? Stories are the mental picture books that help your audience see and feel themselves inside your story.

Check out what you’ll learn:

- How stories need to be a part of your selling cycle and used when leading and influencing others.

STOP climbing more than one mountain at a time.
Having a business and being successful means really dialing in to the right people to help. Most business owners try to cast a wide net to help as many people as possible and it works against them everytime.
The easiest and fastest way to get booked by clients and stages is to be crystal clear on the people who are in that audience. There is an association and industry meeting for every single group of people and interest. Getting specific will help you find the perfect people to talk in front of and serve.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- You’re doing your audience and industry a favor when you decide on the specific group of people you work with or the problem you solve
- Go an inch wide and a mile deep is easier said than done but will position you as the expert that gets hired
- When you climb to the top of one mountain, others can see you from the tops of other mountains.

You have two ears and one mouth, to listen more than you speak.
More often than not, we fall into passive listening, where we’re waiting for a break in the conversation to speak again. Active listening is an unutilized skill and will help you gleam more information about your presentation, what clients want more or and what really resonated with them.
Public speaking is a skill that you’ll always be fine tuning and changing. To take information that’s not included on feedback forms is one way of creating new presentations for the future and perfecting the one you’ve given.
On today’s episode we dive into the benefits of really listening to what your audience is asking for in their comments and questions.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- How to capture what’s being said and asked without relying on your memory, which really can be either forgotten or summarized later when you’re recalling the information.
- What audience questions and comments are really telling you about your topic and future topics.
- How to construct your own feedback from what others are saying.
- Tips and tricks to gather and analyze this data from both in person and virtual speaking events.
PLUS, you can use these cues during one on one conversations with clients, family and friends.

Why is the topic of money so triggering and considered bragging if you do have it to talk about?
If you only had to work hard for money, then all those construction workers building houses and repaving roads in the middle of the summer’s heat would all be wealthy.
Having money has nothing to do with how smart or hard you work. The way you think about and feel towards money will either attract more into your life or push it away. Recognizing how money makes you feel when it’s around and scarce is very revealing and a reflection of your check book.

- You have a relationship with money like any other human. Do you even know how you’re being in your relationship with money?
- Learn a writing exercise to try and reveal your relationship with money. This valuable exercise might unveil a few areas you’re not being supportive of money.
- What beliefs do you have about money? Some of your beliefs we’re probably handed down to you from your parents and teachers.

How much should I be charging? How can I raise my rates? 2 common questions I hear around money and pricing.
Money can be so triggering, especially for many women who are building their business. There seems to be a stigma for charging money for what you enjoy doing and NOT doing it for the money. I want you to be able to pay your bills and more, while sleeping at night knowing what you do is serving others to do their best work. It’s a domino effect.
Here’s a snippet of what you’ll hear in this episode:
- There is no standard on rates in the coaching industry! My clients know I’ll coach them out of their ‘beginner rates’ mentality
- People put value on what they pay for. It’s imperative your rates reflect your value and the market you’re working with
- The exact exercise I run my clients through to determine their prices, so they pay their bills and aren’t working 24/7
- YHow to own your value and expertise before anyone will feel confident in hiring you
PLUS, I want you to feel good about the exchange of service you give your clients and the money you’re receiving.

Why do we give numbers so much meaning about us, our business and worthiness?
Today, we’re getting a little geeky and talking about numbers. I’m taking the sting out of those vanity metrics like money in the bank, monthly earnings or the number of followers you have.
Numbers are DATA! Let me repeat that, the number of followers you have is data and nothing more, unless you give it meaning. Take the emotion out of the data and you can make sound decisions for your business.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- Why there’s so much peer pressure for the 10K IG followers or $10K months and how you can reframe what they mean
- How to make better decisions in your business by evaluating the data, so that you do more of what works and less of what doesn’t
- What kind of data do I track and how

Your words and the words you speak inward and outward matter.
How do you talk to yourself each day? Are you kind, loving and encouraging? Or do you verbally beat yourself up, remind yourself of mistakes and why you should give up? On today’s episode I’m sharing my experience reading Don Miguel Ruiz’s book for the second time years later. This book should be required reading for everyone.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- Reading the 4 Agreements again years later has a different meaning for me today than when I originally read the book.
- Being impeccable with your word is an inside job and should be taken seriously.
- If you’re ready to change your life, change the way you talk to yourself.
- What is Miracle Grow for your confidence and self-esteem
PLUS, I share a little quiz to understand if you’re talking negatively to yourself.

You’re the roadblock in your business’s success. I say that with certainty because these are the most common mistakes my clients are making when we start working together. I also suffered from these and only when I corrected them did things literally open up for me and my business.

What if growing a business and signing on clients was actually easy?
Well it can be. It’s not a matter of finding the right strategy, as much as it’s about being consistent, Like taking a daily vitamin each day to keep you healthy, there are a few things you need to do to grow your business. Do you think any of those big influencers that you follow, didn’t;t start out doing a few things each day? You’re right, no, they did a few things on repeat.
That’s exactly what I share with on this episode.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- Chopping wood and carrying water doesn’t sound sexy but it gets the job done.
- How starting and stopping a half marathon takes longer and the same is true for your business growth.
- The Daily Vitamin Theory, you do it everyday and not take a week’s worth one day. You’d never get all the benefits!
PLUS, I share what a couple of my private clients are doing to get fully booked out with ease and fun.

Your current situation is directly related to your current habits.
Your day consists of a string of habits all day long. Your subconscious brain, like your personal assistant, wants to do as much on auto pilot and not bother you with “thinking” what to do next. Those habits are either pulling you toward or away from the goals and dreams you’re trying to work towards.
Each new level requires new habits. In this episode, I talk about how to determine your current habits and if they’re the right habits to get you to achieving your goals.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- How to evaluate your current habits by honestly looking at how you use your time and money. Your calendar and bank statements don’t lie.
- Track your time using the Time Tracking Sheet here for free.
- Look at the symptoms your life and business are showing to determine your current habits. Similar to annual blood work, your business has symptoms that you can look at: roster of clients, # of weekly sales calls, profitability to name a few.
- What got you here, won’t get you there. Determine your end goal and what habits you’ll need to have that end goal.
PLUS, two valuable tips to get you putting the habits you need to achieve your goals and dreams, because you deserve to live your very best life.

“The victorious warrior decides first in his mind, then goes to battle, while the defeated warrior goes to battle first then seeks to win.” -Sun Tzu
Here’s a snippet of what you’ll hear in this episode:

A picture is worth a 1000 words. How to use the power of imagery to move you closer to your goals.
There’s something magical that happens when you picture in your mind a goal or desire you have for your life or business. Yes it feels good and fun to daydream about this….one day….but brain wise, this is a hack that shouldn’t be overlooked.
I dive into the brain science behind mental imagery and envisioning your goals and desires this week.
Check out what you’ll learn:
- Results from an experiment done at the University of Chicago on it’s basketball team and how you can use this in your business.

“If you’re not embarrassed by the first version of your product, you’ve launched too late.” -Reid Hoffman, Founder of LinkedIn
There is so much wisdom in that statement and words to live by. Every product or program you put out into the world will never be perfect when you look at it through the lens of years later. So many things will change for you in your business, technology and even your hair style.
The best thing you can do is embrace the fact that perfection is a form of fear and holding you back from putting your work out there.
I share a funny story of my first speaker sizzle reel that was filmed in my living room.

Repetition is the secret to learning and getting known.
You might be wondering what else can you talk about, how to explain what you do or how do I keep making the same offer. If you’re feeling like a broken record, good because you should. Your ideal prospects need to hear your message on repeat before they take the next step and hire you.

PLUS, how repeating yourself will actually make your sales calls easy and hear yes!

What does it really take to grow an online business? Today’s special guest will share her secrets to how she did it and you can too.
Kim Argetsinger is a mindset coach + business mentor with a mission to help you create your version of success and make more money doing what you love.
Through private one-on-one coaching, Kim helps heart-centered, passion-driven entrepreneurs, creatives, and coaches transform their business from the inside-out so they build, grow, and scale a business they're wildly in love with that also makes them bank.
Kim's built her own successful, multi six-figure business with consistent five-figure cash months (with ads or complicated funnels and has been around the coaching and business block. She holds a BA in Psychology with honors from the University of Miami, is a Mentor Masterclass Certified Life Coach, and has been featured as an expert and coach on numerous podcasts, webinars, interviews, and live events (back when the world was open).
More importantly, Kim loves supporting her clients to help them get (and stay) out of their own way and create their own SIMPLE process (no one-size-fits-all formulas over here) for achieving and sustaining epic business results (we're talking everything from booking first paying clients ever, to getting fully booked with a waitlist, selling out programs, and hitting record breaking income months like $10k, $20k, and even $100k months.)
Kim's obsessed with how the brain works, all things mindset, business psychology, a relationship-based approach to marketing, heart-centered sales, taking up space like a boss, and essentialism (doing less better). She believes there's nothing more powerful than combining clarity, mindset, strategy, and aligned action when it comes to business success.
Kim's also an ex-actress who started over in Manhattan (if you can make it here, you can make it anywhere, right?), an introverted-extrovert, coffee, green juice, AND wine lover, who believes a good sweat sesh can cure most things.

What’s the deal with having a word or phrase of the year?
Here’s another perspective on a word or phrase of the year-theme. Is there a theme you would like to go through the next year with?
Your theme can be the lens that you see and work from for the next year. If you’ve never had a theme for the year or if this is the first time you’re hearing it, give it a try. You can even do it monthly, if you’re new to this idea.
Here’s what I shared:
- Why having a word of the year can help you grow as an individual and business owner.
- What my word was last year and how I used it during one the most challenging years ever.
- What my word is for the next 12 months and how I plan on leaning into it.
- How my word is being used in a couple of client wins and more.
What’s your word going to be? What’s your theme for 2021?

Today’s guest is going to share all about copy and how to keep eyeballs on your content and email.
Justin Blackman is a copywriter who goes overboard. In 2017, he wrote 10,211 headlines for 100 brands over 100 days, just for fun. Since 2018, he’s written copy for more than 329 entrepreneurs and dozens of brands, using an ultra-specific voice mirroring process called Brand Ventriloquism™.
He currently runs two writing programs: The Codex Persona, which trains writers how to measure and emulate a client’s voice. And Write More Personality-er, a quick & quirky workshop that teaches people how to add punch, power, and pop to their everyday writing.
You can find him at Pretty Fly Copy, where he creates ultra-specific voice guides for industry experts and growing businesses, and talks a lot about Muppets.
Here’s a short rundown of this episode:

Money. Money. Money. You might not even be aware of some of your beliefs, and how they're holding you back from what you really want. Many of the lessons I learned about money originally came from my parents, both from their words and their actions. For many of us, money can be triggering because of our memories and beliefs.
In this episode, we’re taking a look at money mindset and how some small shifts can help you build a more successful and profitable business.
Here’s a short rundown of this episode:
- Talking about money can be uncomfortable, however it’s in this place of discomfort that real growth and learning occurs.
- We all have what I call a “Money Ceiling” and you might be hitting it each time you reach a new level of success. This is a time to level up your money mindset for the next level. (I share a story when I hit my Money Ceiling hard!)
- Look at money as an exchange of energy for something you want or need like hiring a coach for support in your business or a house cleaner, which free up time to work on your business or quality time with the kiddos.
- A tip to reframe your money fears, so that you can free yourself to receive more of the income you desire.
- Learn two exercises to strengthen your money mindset, which are exercises from my Momentum Bootcamp, which is a 7-week intimate group program focused on Mindset, Marketing and Sales.

Looking back on your life, you’ll see moments that altered or changed your life and business forever. One of mine came from a patient during my days in healthcare, this one moment opened a door for me that altered the path I was on forever.
Here’s a snippet of what you’ll hear in this episode:
- How I was “accidentally” introduced to the personal development world and the book that changed it all was The Magic of Thinking Big
- How “Acting as if….” got me the position I wanted
- Acting as if...is one of the exercises and assignments I use with my private coaching clients to help move them forward quickly.
