Today my friend Antonio Neves hosts part two of our launch week conversation (listen to episode 077 first if you haven’t already). In this second half, we’re talking about evolutions in business and personal revolutions in parallel. This is diving deep into the real personal realm, and it is the most vulnerable I have been in over six years of podcasting. I am so grateful to Antonio for holding this space, and to you for listening—I hope it serves you in some way.
More About Antonio: Antonio Neves is the author of four books including Stop Living On Autopilot: Take Responsibility for Your Life and Rediscover a Bolder, Happier You (Penguin Random House/Rodale Books, 2020) He’s also the host of The Antonio Neves Show podcast where he reminds people that no matter where they stand today, their story is far from over. He’s an award-winning journalist, keynote speaker at companies, conferences, and events, and is the father of twins.
Key Takeaways:
- You can take control of your time by shaping your week. Having specific days and times when you do what needs to be done for your business.
- Stand by your prices. They are what they are, and if that means a certain client or opportunity isn’t a fit, so be it.
- Are there demons you are ignoring? Muster up your courage and invite them to sit down for a conversation, they have something to teach you.
⭐️ Permission: To share what scares you, too. Whatever secret you are terrified people will find out — or are embarrassed to say out loud — let it surface; it’s freeing to let the light in.
⭐️ Do (or Delegate) This Next: Good friends remind you to bet on yourself. Who in your circles might need a word of encouragement today? Reach out and be the friend you want for yourself.
