Former 'big law' attorney turned wellness entrepreneur and as well as a certified usui reiki master and transformational coach to top performers, Danielle Sunberg left the traditional definition of success behind to travel the world and discover what truly made her happy. She shares the wisdom she had learned about the nature of the mind and the heart to help people tap into the genius that lives within themselves and align their lives with who they are and what they want.As an attorney, I was depressed and saw doctors who prescribed meds. In the west, we pathologize everything and I saw it as a sickness. Leaving my home and culture behind to explore the world, I realized that it was not a sickness but a CLUE that I was ready to embark on the next phase of my inner growth. Relevancy to efficiency: emotions are our internal GPS. They give us warnings that get louder over time. The more tapped in you are to your emotional GPS, the easier it is to stay on course to create a satisfying life.In today’s episode, Danielle talks to Monique about Problem solving efficiently, understanding the nature of the mind and how we solve problems allows us to solve them much faster and with less stress.HOT TOPICS OF THE EPISODE[1:21] - Monique introduces her guest, Danielle Sunberg.[2:49] - Tell me what you actually did in your previous life.I think a lot of us are starting to blossom from having one career and then taking this leap or pivot and then starting a totally second new career. That's what happened to me. I learned a ton about what it means to connect to yourself. [23:28] - How do you think people can make a difference when it comes to inner wisdom that's calling them or is it really something medical that they should be looking at? How do we address that in a world that doesn't allow us to think for ourselves when it comes to wellness?What we aren't taught growing up is what it means to have an emotion.Some people, they only need to experience a little bit of pain before they go.And some people need to get clinically depressed, before they say something needs to change.[30:39] - What happened when you were in Thailand and how you got to specifically learn about the gift of Reiki?I actually didn't get into Reiki specifically in Thailand, Reiki is a Japanese energy modality.The reason I got into Reiki specifically, is during my time traveling in Thailand, it sort of opened me up to this gift of facilitating the movement of energy.[41:34] - What would you say about the different versions of how energy can show up for people and how they can start to connect more to it?The initial thing I would say is that we all have our own intuition.If you just keep following the satisfying feeling of your intuition, it'll keep leading you towards satisfaction. [46:23] - I want to know how you use Reiki with your clients, what do you basically do to help them and how do you help them with that?Reiki is kind of a massage without the touching. It can be done remotely. We together travel the body with a chakra system, your seven chakras that are located all along the spine. And we use those in Reiki as an organizational system to understand the energy that's being facilitated. [53:00] - What does efficiency mean to you?Efficiency for me is completing a task, or a project or the goal, in the way that feels most effortless.[54:19] - Which of the three things would you keep doing over and over again to get back to success?I would repeat my childhood.Meeting my husband.Traveling the backpack experience around the world.AWESOME RESOURCES THAT WE TALKED ABOUT IN THIS EPISODEBook 1:https://www.amazon.com/Untethered-Soul-Journey-Beyond-Yourself-ebook/dp/B003TU29WABook 2: https://www.amazon.com/Four-Agreements-Practical-Personal-Freedom/dp/1878424319IMPACTFUL QUOTES OF THIS EPISODEEfficiency for me is completing a task, or a project or the goal or whatever, in the way that feels most effortless. - Danielle SunbergWhat we aren't taught growing up is what it means to have an emotion. - Danielle SunbergFIND MORE ABOUT DANIELLE SUNBERG HERE.Website: https://daniellesunberg.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/your.genius.within/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ammahealing/ See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

I'm a professor of Psychology and Women's studies and a sexual relationship therapist and the author of the feminist handbook.[3:11] - What got you to the point of writing the book about feminism, making sure women understand it's not them but the patriarchy?The telling story from my childhood that resonates today with feminism and helps lead me down the path of being a feminist is that I'm an adoptee. After eight years of practicing law, I wanted more for myself, I wanted to challenge myself.

She helps coaches and professional services businesses clarify their message and attract high paying clients consistently through the Art of Social Storytelling.A college drop-out, left hometown of 600 people when she was 18, bought a one-way ticket alone to Australia with $500 to her name. The coming years were a crazy ride as she lost her best friend to cancer at 22 and found out she was unexpectedly pregnant shortly after. In "hustle" mode with her business by then and not willing to sacrifice time with her daughter once she got here, Lauren had no choice but to find a more efficient way to keep growing her business.In today’s episode, Lauren and Monique are talking about how Lauren kept growing her coaching business from 0-6 figures in 8 months while she was pregnant (and did it again while we were talking, but this time in secret!).

And so I looked at a map and I had my finger on either Europe or Australia. And I ended up picking Australia. I now run a multiple six-figure online coaching business. But I started as a freelance copywriter, I worked my way up. And it was a crazy three years. [17:02] - Lauren talks about how she met her partner and unexpectedly got pregnant.[22:12] - How did the new partner by that time react to the pregnancy?This person when I found out I was pregnant was extremely supportive. [27:25] - How did your audience react to this whole story? Because I know you were very open about it and shared it.When I first initially shared it, there was shocked but there was all around love, and congratulations. And people already kind of saw me as a mother figure and a leader. So they were really excited for me to actually become a mother.[29:44] - Do you think sharing a story like this could end up being “oversharing”?What you want to ask yourself instead is what is the message that I want to share with my story and who do I want to reach with my story, who is the actual person that I want to attract with my story.[31:43] - Lauren explains about boundaries and standards.[35:24] - How do we know what standards we have? The first thing to look at, are the things that you're not happy within your life.[39:22] - How would you deal then with the pushback?

[42:08] - What exercise do you want to share with our listeners that would be your favorite one to get clarity on your message and why you want to share it?The first exercise to do is get clear on what problem you are actually solving through your product or service.[44:51] - Which question would you wish that your clients would ask you more?Probably a mindset question.[47:35] - What do you think are the most important mindset traits that six or seven-figure business owners have that the people who want to get there don't have?Do not try to solve problems that do not exist.[50:30 - What does efficiency mean to you?Efficiency as a business owner is setting up your business to function without you always being present.But on a smaller scale efficiency to me means getting the right things done consistently.[52:43] - Which of the three things would you do over and over again, to get to success if you have to start out over?Number one is my mindset.The second thing I do is market and sell.The third thing is I talked to my existing clients and my existing students.AWESOME RESOURCES THAT WE TALKED ABOUT IN THIS EPISODEBecome a boundaries bad*ss - course by Mark Groves IMPACTFUL QUOTES OF THIS EPISODE[28:22] - “You're in control of so many things, so focus on what you are in control of.” - Lauren Raye Gordon.[48:39] - “Do not try to solve problems that do not exist.” - Lauren Raye Gordon[51:20] - “Efficiency as a business owner is setting up your business to function without you always being present.” - Lauren Raye GordonFIND MORE ABOUT LAUREN RAYE GORDON HEREWebsite: https://www.artofsocialstorytelling.com/social-storytelling35309472Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/laurenrayegordon & https://www.facebook.com/laurengordonofficial See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

[05:10] - How did you split your time between being an actress, an author, and your business?Even if your career is going really well there's typically a need to have some other income involved.It gave me an amazing opportunity to start my business, I'm really passionate about it because I'm able to do what I love.[07:21] - How did you work with the things you planned and then suddenly you get a call for a casting and then everything is different?It's challenging when it comes up because I just have to totally shift gears and then commit to what's right in front of me.It was important not to actually block out every hour of the day because it would be like, too hard to like move things around.[10:57] - During our work, what did we figure out about health issues and how were we able to integrate them as well?Health stuff is crazy because sometimes it happens and you can’t see it coming and then sometimes it just like, snap your fingers and it's there and you were not expecting in.[15:53] - Monique and Abby talk about hiring and delegating.[23:14] - How do you show up yourself on camera when you actually don't feel like you’re 100%?The motivation that I need is like focusing on the value that I'm going to give or the impact that I'm going to have like trying to take the focus off of myself and how I'm feeling and on, the purpose of what I'm doing, that helps motivate me more.[27:48] - Should you actually show up at all if you really don't feel like it or should you look back on what actually happened and show up afterward?I do think we have to put our self-care first.

Ray has bootstrapped multiple 6 and 7-figure businesses. For the last 5 years, he has been able to run 3-5 businesses at the same time all while having free time to spend. The "secret" to how he had been efficient enough to do all of this is simply discipline.Ray owns a website called livelingua.com, which is the third-largest online language school in the world.In today’s episode, Ray and Monique are talking about how he flipped his definition of failure: “Failing is not when a business doesn't work or doesn't make money, failure is when you stopped trying. And if you never stopped trying, you will never fail.” which enabled him to make building businesses his art. HOT TOPICS OF THE EPISODE [02:04] - Monique introduces her guest, Mr.Ray Blakney.[02:21] - Explain everyone out there what the sword fighting is.I've been practicing the Japanese martial art called kendo for going on dating myself back for about 20 years now. So kendo is the way of the sword and I have been practicing it since I was 22.[04:00] - Tell me when you're not sword fighting, what else are you doing in your business?I own a website called livelingua.com. It's the third-largest online language school in the world and I run it with my wife.I own a website called toeducate.comI also owned a chocolate factory in the Philippines before I am the host of the Anomalous Educator Podcast which helps teachers make money online.[05:26] - Starting businesses and making them successful is a kind of art for you, explain a little bit about that.The creative process is what I like because you get to try things, you get to see what works what doesn't and you get to go back and fix it.[10:16] - So when you bootstrap a company, how do you approach everything from the get-go? I'm not creating something that nobody's ever thought of before, like Steve Jobs, or Elon Musk, or all those people out there.For launching businesses, see a need, check that there's a need, confirm there's a need and then just do it.[14:10] - How did you get to the point of having this mindset of “failure is not a total failure, I always get something out of it.”I flipped my definition of failure. Failing is not when a business doesn't work or doesn't make money, failures when I stopped trying. And if I never stopped trying, I never failed.[15:32] - How did you approach your new content marketing strategy?I put Comic Sans and made the whole presentation like a comic book.And to my surprise, half the room came up to me with this marketing methodology that we use in my companies and said. “Can you do that for us?”So that planted the seed for the agency[29:40] - So how important do you think is research in the beginning before you even start putting out content, writing content for clients?It's like any other construction, right? You can put a beautiful house on it. But if the base is bad, it's going to crumble in a year or two. And we need to do that for your business as well.[31:31] - Do you think that a lot of entrepreneurs that they're going wrong with the research or not even doing it or don't know how to do research for their business?I think most advanced entrepreneurs might do that because they've learned the value in it. [33:03] - If you're starting a new business, do you ask audiences some questions? Do you, like to use the Ask method? Do you use like only the keyword research? What do you use?I generally stick with keyword research because I assume I use a little bit of the Ask method now because I do have a network and audiences I can do it for.[35:59] - After the research how do you think should entrepreneurs use the results? The research should help you find who your audience is.[38:52] - What actually makes you efficient in a discipline?I developed discipline kind of later in life.Discipline is what gives me freedom.[42:44] - You said you use the discipline to be very self-driven. But you don't believe in working, what your passion is.I think people confuse passion with their why.If you did a good job and figure out what your why is. That's enough for you to at least take one step towards it that day.[46:03] - So how important is efficiency to you now that you have multiple businesses?Discipline is key to me be able to do what I'm doing.I use an app called wunderlist.[51:14] - What does efficiency mean to you?Efficiency is just getting as close to that goal as I can today.[52:01] - What are the top three tips for starting a business?The first one is research.Make sure you plan that you have the time to do this business.A final tip would be “just do it.” AWESOME RESOURCES THAT WE TALKED ABOUT IN THIS EPISODE[04:55] - Anomalous educator podcast which helps teachers make money online. - http://anomalouseducator.com/category/podcast/[33:13] - The Ask Method - https://book.askmethod.com/[50:23] - Wunderlist - https://www.wunderlist.com/IMPACTFUL QUOTES OF THIS EPISODE[14:05] - “For launching businesses, see a need, check that there's a need confirm there's a need and then just do it.” - Ray Blakney[15:05] - “Failing is not when a business doesn't work, or doesn't make money, failures when I stopped trying.

Amar Ghose is the CEO and co-founder of ZenMaid.com, a bootstrapped SaaS company on track to earn over $1 million in 2020. He accomplished this while traveling the world since 2015 and shares online regularly about entrepreneurship, marketing, and lifestyle design.What he makes him unique is how he found various ways to turn his perceived weaknesses into strengths.HOT TOPICS OF THE EPISODE [03:11] - Monique welcomes her guest, Amar Ghose.[03:26] - Tell everyone first what you are actually doing and why?I am a digital nomadCEO and co-founder of a very niche software called Zenmaid.I'm still living the same lifestyle, which means we don't have an office. Everyone is 100% remote[05:19] - Tell us a little bit about how you started the company?So where the idea came from was I have run my own maid service back in 2012. I ran it for just over a year. And that was after reading a random blog post about how to start your own maid service.[09:11] - I know there were a lot of things that didn't go the way you wanted to. So tell me what was the plan? What went wrong?We've been working with a product that my initial co-founder had built almost seven years ago. And it was very clear that we were going to rebuild the product from scratchI would say it took over close to a year to really rebuild the product and to redesign everything. [20:59] - What was your reaction?Fran will tell you how weirdly calm I was as I was describing the situation.[25:15] - So do you remember at what time in your life you got to the point of being like “I gotta leave this shit behind”.I've been practicing that for like, for some time of just focusing on what's within my control[27:48] - Did the team actually stick with you or did someone fall behind?I believe that every single person that was on the team when we took that redesign live, is still on the team.[29:43] - What did you do to support the team to build the culture?I definitely have not been very intentional about this.But I feel like as an extrovert, I don't really feel like I ever really had to focus or worry about culture.[34:24] - What would you say about the number of people that are with you full time and how many of them are entrepreneurs?So we have four people on our sales team, and all four of them own their own maid services that use Zenmaid every single day. So I don’t have to train them up to be salespeople.[37:48] - Why do you hire your own customers?It does work out well though, eg. with maid service ownersA lot of them would be happy to take a consistent two or four hours a day, where they just know they're getting a consistent paycheck.[43:33] - Tell me about how you manage your time throughout these past seven yearsI've essentially just always focused on consistent action.But my main thing in terms of management is environment control.[46:19] - How about combining traveling and work?I only work for maybe three to four hours a dayIn terms of travel, I essentially have like the same set of habits, but how they sort of fall into place or fall into my schedule changes based on where I am.[50:22] - What do you think efficiency means to you?Efficiency to me is is essentially finding your personal best path to achieve your goals.[53:52] - What are the top three skills or characteristics that you wouldn’t want to miss to achieve your goals?I think that every single entrepreneur on the planet should study copywriting.If you're getting into entrepreneurship because you think that it's going to be easy and that you're just going to get to do all of the things that you love and nothing else, then you probably need a bit of a wake-up call.Enjoy the journey or like surround yourself with people that you love.AWESOME RESOURCES THAT WE TALKED ABOUT IN THIS EPISODE[02:41] - ZenMaid - Management App for Maid Services https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zenmaid.app&hl=enIMPACTFUL QUOTES OF THIS EPISODE[25:43] - “Focusing on what's within your control” - Amar Ghose[39:43] - “Your biggest disadvantages can turn into your biggest advantages”. - Amar Ghose[50:37] - “Efficiency is essentially finding your personal best path to achieve your goals.” - Amar GhoseFIND MORE ABOUT AMAR GHOSE HEREWebsite : ZenMaid.comTwitter : https://twitter.com/amaricandreamzFacebook : https://www.facebook.com/godblessamarica See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

All he wanted to do, was impacting people. So he started asking people in his nuclear environment and beyond, to talk to him. He interviewed them on all kinda topics, in order to understand the quest of life a bit more. First, Kyree started with his friends, uncles, and slowly moved to interviewing doctors, lawyer, monks and even death row inmates.

I do sort of life coaching. I do business consulting for people[03:35] - How did you get to the point of being able to communicate calmly, but also to just give space to all of these different perspectives?I think it was detaching myself from other people's perspectives. Like, they don't need to think the way that I think in order for me to think the way that I think.[06:00] - Where does that come from? Why would we want to influence other people's opinions so much?All of us think that if more people thought like us, the world would be a better place. I think everybody thinks that[07:19] - How would you take steps to the detachment of other people's opinions?I don't think I'd say anything to those people. Our perspective isn't the same[09:09] - How do you navigate the in-between of like voicing your opinion without discriminating against other people?My job is to make as compelling a case as possible for people to either agree with the way that I think or figure out a better way to think about that same topic.[11:39] - How did you get into like, being so focused on this topic (masculinity), and why is it so important that we are talking about it?So I think that no matter who we are as people, no matter what group we belong to, what country you're from, I think we're all led by masculine and feminine energy[12:50] - Did you have the role models that you needed as a child?I had multiple role models.And by me not having that (father figure), it gave me an opportunity to pull from multiple different sources.[13:49] - Can you give me a rough picture of what masculinity looks like to you?Three pillarsA soft heart is your empathy.Thick skin is your emotional intelligence.The hard head is your grit determination.[16:06] - How did you learn all of these things and then adapting it to your own version.I think I just started piecing information together and I started seeing trends.[17:44] - How did you conduct these 800+ interviews and how did you get people to speak to you?I just started asking the people around me I started asking co-workers, family, friends, and it kind of just grew from thereI've interviewed almost any type of person you can think of.[19:00] - What stuck out to you when you interviewed all of them?I genuinely just listened to people for who they were and what their experiences were.[20:22] - What made the difference for you when you switched over from work first to basically life first?I learned how I'm supposed to set my life up before it needed to be set up that way.[23:46] - I want to know if you have any dating efficiency tips?The people who are most skeptical about it, they see it as a waste of time. They're usually people who aren't very good at it. And often they're not very good at it. Because they haven't put a whole lot of time in developing themselves to be the right person to do it.[26:29] - How can they find out about it?It's all asking yourself those difficult questions.And I think you can do to dig until you come up with an answer[28:22] - How do you make sure you don't have to be just one thing and you're good at advertising and life coaching?Commitment to being a well-rounded person is probably the biggest thing. [29:40] - Monique talks about Ikigai.The Japanese concept of combining the thing that you're really good at was the thing that you're really passionate at was the thing that you can make money off into your life's purpose[31:14] - How do you assess the person itself and not what they were doing?I start forming my opinion or informing my opinion just based on how I watch them interact with themselves and the world around them.[32:05] - Is it more important for you of how people act or how they speak?Both are very important.[32:27] - What would you tell to influence a million people right in front of you?Probably it would be just sort of generic advice of finding what's right for you and chasing what that is[34:14] - Is there a specific routine to improve yourself?I wouldn't say that there's a routine as far as how to change it. It's just a consistent, concerted effort. [35:34] - What does efficiency mean to you, then?I would boil it down to the best use of time. And maybe the best use of time is to relax sometimes maybe the best thing is to not do anything. [36:33] - what would be time-wasters for you?The time that I spend leading up to what I know I'm supposed to do or what I know, I need to do next. [38:03] - Which would be the top three things that you would suggest anyone doing?I'd say getting very clear on what your purpose is as quickly as possible and then designing your life around what that purpose is.[01:56] - Monique welcomes her guest, Kyree Oliver [02:04] - Tell us a little bit about your background.I'm from CaliforniaI own a marketing company.
