The Cure for Anxiousness
Anxiety is a word we use for certain types of fear that are usually to do with the thought of something going wrong in future, rather than right now. So, how do we conquer our anxiety?

In this episode John and Erik share practical ways to help you disarm your anxiety and break through into a new paradigm of confidence.

Building An Empire of Trust
The most expensive thing in the world is trust, and it's earned when actions meet words and where long-term consistency trumps short-term intensity. Trust, however, can be lost in a matter of seconds. It’s imperative for organisations to hold trust as a core value that is owned by every employee—from the CEO to the front-line team that interacts with customers online, by phone, and in person—and is reinforced by acting and speaking in a manner that is consistent with your values, character, and culture.In this episode Erik and John discuss the concept of long-term elegant power with whomever you build trust with. No matter what business you’re in, build that level of trust through consistency with no triggers.JOHN SANEIWebsite - https://johnsanei.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnsanei/LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnsanei/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/Trenovator/Twitter - https://twitter.com/IamJohnSaneiTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@johnsaneiYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVWNqrphfUB2ubkN6bhZRkgERIK KRUGERWebsite - https://erikkruger.comInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/erik_kruger/LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/erikkruger/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/erikkrugerspeakerTwitter - https://twitter.com/EricKrugerTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@erik_krugerYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0SG2xP9WBY-USzDr74cGsw Website · Instagram · LinkedIn · Facebook · TikTokGet social with us on Instagram & Facebook.
