Do you feel like you're missing a support system of like-minded people? Or your ideas aren't being developed in the ways you're picturing? In today's episode, Lori and I encourage you to leave the house and embrace the power of being in person. We believe there is a collective energy in togetherness, and we're providing specific examples of why sharing ideas while they're hot in the room is so important. Plus, we break down the ways your unique perspective can add substantial value to the rooms you're in. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: - The collective energy of togetherness - The differences between being on a Zoom vs. in person - How you can add value to the rooms you're in or events you're at - The benefits your perspective brings to the table - Tips for cultivating your ideal support system RESOURCES - Text WORKSHOP to 310-496-8363 to be the first to know about our next workshop!

I encourage you to make bold decisions regardless of doubt and accept the possibility of failure. You never know when one of these investments will pay off big! Listen in to hear how taking risks and making bold decisions open you up to success.

If you wait to be ready instead of taking a swing at something, chances are you're going to miss your window of opportunity. So many of us get paralyzed by perfection and fear any sort of feedback that we end up not even trying. But, if there's one thing we've learned about business over the years, it's that you need to be okay with putting out a minimum viable product and improving from there. Listen in as we unpack some examples of how we learned this lesson and what you can do today to take action. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: Recognizing the compound effect of taking small steps toward your goals Why you can't play big until you're willing to play small Using feedback as your roadmap How to get out of the analysis paralysis cycle and start taking action RESOURCES Atomic Habits by James Clear Text ROUNDTABLE to 310-421-0416 to get information about the next roundtable VIP business strategy session.

Ever since my dad passed away unexpectedly in 2020, I've turned into somewhat of a hypochondriac. I've been afraid to push my limits in all areas of my life – exercise, work, travel – because I don't have the full picture of what's going on beneath the surface. Instead of kicking the can down the road, I decided to do a comprehensive executive physical with Dr. David Boyd and I can't even begin to describe the relief I feel after getting a clean bill of health. What can you do to get clarity on what's holding you back and go full speed ahead? DM me and let's figure out how to take the first step. IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT: The unintended consequences of putting things off Realizing how much time I wasted by not getting this physical done sooner Getting more visibility into the overall health of your business, finances, and relationships Taking that first scary step to addressing your fears RESOURCES Text ROUNDTABLE to 310-421-0416 to get information about the next roundtable VIP business strategy session.
