Happy Independence Day! In this inspiring episode, Lindsey connects the spirit of American independence to your personal freedom from disordered eating. Drawing from Stephen Covey's "Seven Habits of Highly Effective People," she breaks down the four human endowments that give us ultimate freedom: self-awareness, conscience, independent will, and creative imagination. If you're tired of living for everyone else's approval and ready to declare independence from your eating disorder, this episode will show you exactly how to break free using the power you already have within you. What You'll Learn The 4 human endowments that create ultimate freedom (from Stephen Covey) How your eating disorder hijacks your internal guidance system Why you get stuck in the "capacity to act" phase of recovery How to reconnect with your creative imagination and dreams The power of asking "What's the best that could happen?" How to put on your "full armor" against disordered eating The 4 Keys to Ultimate Human Freedom 1. Self-Awareness Allows you to think about your thoughts Key to taking responsibility for where you are and where you want to go Action Step: Write your Best Self Statement (Episode 51 reference) 2. Conscience Your internal guidance system for right and wrong Connects actions to your highest values (your "True North Compass") Gets jaded when eating disorder is in the driver's seat 3. Independent Will Your capacity to act and break patterns Where many people get stuck in recovery The part of you that's "starving for independence" 4. Creative Imagination Gives you purpose and dreams beyond current reality Hard to access when living "chained in the disorder" When attached to willpower, makes you unstoppable Key Questions to Ask Yourself "What's the best that could happen if..." I surrender control? I sit with my dreams and imagine life without unhealthy behaviors? I stop counting calories or weighing myself? I become the natural version of me I'm supposed to be? Powerful Episode Quotes "Independence is freedom from the need of everyone else's approval." "You have the key. No one else. Freedom isn't really free - it's won by you, but you don't have to go at it alone." "When your willpower is attached to your creative imagination, nothing can stop you." "Fears keep us stuck. The fear of weight gain is real... but it kept me stuck for so long. These are the handcuffs around you, and you have the key." Biblical Foundation - Ephesians 6:10-18 Lindsey references putting on the "full armor of God" to stand against the eating disorder, including: Belt of truth Breastplate of righteousness Shield of faith Helmet of salvation Sword of the Spirit Resources Mentioned Best Self Statement: Pinned in Her Best Self Society Facebook community Episode 51: "Why Some Find Freedom from Disordered Eating and Others Don't" Stephen Covey: "Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" Private Facebook Community: www.herbestselfesociety.com  Ready for Recovery Coaching?

In this episode of Do The Work | Mindset Mastery, I open up about something that we all carry but rarely stop to dissect: guilt. It's sneaky. It creeps in during the quiet moments after long work weeks, during family decisions, and when we feel stretched too thin. This episode wasn't just about a spontaneous trip to Universal Studios with my daughters. It was about understanding how guilt can distort our memories, cloud our judgment, and keep us from truly being present. But more importantly, it was about choosing what to do with that guilt right now. Over the years, I've told myself stories. That I worked too much. That I wasn't present enough. That I didn't have patience. And while I believed those things, my daughters remembered something different. They remembered the volleyball practices. They remembered Disneyland. They remembered me showing them how to edit on their iPads. And it made me realize how powerful our own stories can be and how wrong we are when we let guilt rewrite our legacy. I almost let my own guilt steal an opportunity to create a powerful memory with my daughters. I almost passed on a trip that turned into one of the best experiences we've had together. The reality is, we work hard to earn that flexibility, but if we don't take action in the present, guilt will always convince us we don't deserve it. This lesson isn't just for home it applies to business too. Guilt from not following up. Guilt from not posting. Guilt from not showing up strong for your clients. We sit in that space and call it accountability, but accountability without action is just self-punishment. You say you take responsibility but then what? What are you doing right now to change it? It's time to stop looking back at where we fell short and start doing something right here, right now. One call. One text. One post. One moment of presence. That's where expansion begins. And when you take that action now, it doesn't just shape your future. It transforms your past and your present too. Expansion grows every way, not just forward. The guilt doesn't have to weigh you down if you're willing to move. Ask Yourself What guilt have you been holding onto that's slowing down your growth or happiness? What is one action you can take today to move forward in your business or relationships? How might your story change if you stopped focusing on what you didn't do and started acting on what you can do now? Notable Quotes “We can all feel belittled by what we have. Or we can just think about what we can do right now to get a little closer to that bigger vision.” “Time doesn't necessarily mean quality. You don't have to sabotage one or the other. You can do both.” “Accountability without action is just self-punishment.”   Follow A.Z. Araujo on Social Media: Instagram: @azaraujo Facebook: A.Z. Araujo TikTok: A.Z.

If you're a high-achieving woman who has built an empire of accomplishments but still feels like an outsider looking in, this episode will revolutionize everything you thought you knew about your relationship with food and your body. Today we're exposing the truth behind the staggering statistic that 91% of women diet to belong, and why your weight obsession is actually a belonging crisis in disguise. You'll discover the research-backed connection between restriction and worthiness, learn why your "disciplined" identity is actually a prison, and walk away with 4 revolutionary strategies to reclaim your power this summer. This isn't just another episode about food freedom—this is your call to revolution. What You'll Discover ✨ Why 91% of women use dieting as a belonging strategy (and why it backfires) ✨ The Harvard research that proves relationships matter 10x more than weight for happiness ✨ How your "disciplined identity" around food is actually keeping you small ✨ Why validation addiction through restriction is sabotaging your authentic connections ✨ The revolutionary truth about weight, worth, and belonging that changes everything ✨ 3 power practices you can implement this week to break free from the cycle Shocking Statistics Revealed The Belonging Crisis Numbers 91% of women surveyed on college campuses had attempted to control their weight through dieting 22% of women diet "often" or "always" (National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders) 95% of people struggling with food restriction report feeling "different" or "misunderstood" (Center for Mindful Eating) The Research That Changes Everything Harvard's Study of Adult Development: Quality of relationships determines happiness and health more than any other factor—not dress size, not workout routine 95% of diets fail long-term, yet women continue the cycle of restriction 85% of eating disorders start as "normal" dieting behavior Key Revelations The Belonging Wound Your obsession with weight has nothing to do with your weight and everything to do with your wounded belief that you don't belong. You've convinced yourself that belonging is conditional—requiring the right size, perfect discipline, most controlled relationship with food. The Identity Prison You've made restriction your religion and your body your altar. The identity keeping you "safe" from rejection is the same identity keeping you small. When you define yourself as "the disciplined one," you're not building strength—you're building a prison with bars made of other people's opinions. The Validation Addiction Every compliment about your discipline gives you a temporary hit, but validation addiction works like any other addiction—the highs get shorter and the lows get deeper. You need more external approval to feel momentarily worthy. Powerful Quotes to Remember "True belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world." - Brené Brown "The belonging you're seeking through their approval will never be sustainable because it's not real. Real belonging comes from the inside out, not the outside in." Your Belonging Revolution Toolkit: 3 Power Practices Practice 1: The Belonging Mirror Method Every morning before checking your phone, stand in front of your mirror and say: "I belong here. In this body, in this life, in this world. Not because of what I weigh, but because of who I am." Then name three things you're grateful your body can do. This rewires your brain from criticism to celebration. Practice 2: The Summer Freedom Food Challenge This week, choose one food you've been restricting and eat it mindfully in a social setting. Maybe it's ice cream on a date, bread at dinner with friends. The goal isn't the food—it's practicing belonging while nourishing yourself. Notice how no one cares what you're eating as much as you think they do. Practice 3: The Energy Reclaim Ritual Instead of over-exercising to earn belonging, move your body in ways that make you feel powerful. Dance in your living room. Walk in nature. Stretch on your porch. Ask: "How does my body want to move today?" then honor that answer. Transform movement from obligation to celebration. Bonus Practice: The Validation Redirect When you catch yourself seeking approval about food choices, body, or discipline—pause and ask: "What validation do I need to give myself right now?" Then give it to yourself. Out loud. With conviction. The Summer Revolution Challenge This summer, stage a revolution for your body, not against it. For freedom, not restriction. For your soul, not your size. Ask Yourself: What would it look like to show up to summer gatherings as the woman who belongs because she's claimed it through courage? What would it feel like to order what you want because you want it, not because you've "earned" it? What would it mean to wear the swimsuit because you realize your body was always perfect for living your life? Research Sources Brené Brown's belonging and vulnerability research Harvard Study of Adult Development (relationships and happiness correlation) National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders (dieting statistics) Center for Mindful Eating (restriction and social connection studies) Ready for Your Revolution? If this episode lit a fire in your soul and you're ready to stop earning worth through restriction and start claiming power through presence, it's time to take action. The belonging you're seeking isn't hiding in a smaller dress size or waiting at your goal weight. It's available right now, in this body, in this moment, as you are.

Ever wondered why those killer self-promotion skills that got you promoted in corporate just aren't working for your coaching business? Sarah breaks down the fundamental difference between marketing yourself as an employee versus marketing your coaching services to clients. Spoiler alert: they're complete opposites!Key TakeawaysThe Visibility TrapYou know those colleagues who effortlessly climb the corporate ladder? They've mastered the art of staying visible and making their contributions known. While this skill is gold in the workplace, it's actually counterproductive when building a coaching practice.The Weighing Scales MetaphorThink of your coaching business like old-fashioned weighing scales:One side: All your delivery skills (coaching qualifications, certifications, NLP training, personality profiling tools, etc.)Other side: Your client acquisition skills (problem articulation, solution communication, visibility in the right places)The catch? These two sides are complete opposites and equally important for success.The Outcome-Focused ShiftInstead of showcasing how qualified you are, successful coach marketing focuses on:The specific problems your coaching solvesThe outcomes clients can expectHow working with you transforms their situationDitch the Coach SpeakTerms like "holding space" and "thinking partner" mean nothing to potential clients. Your marketing needs to speak their language, not coach language.The "Aha!" MomentMost coaches struggle with marketing because they're trying to use employee mindset skills in an entrepreneurial context. The skills that made you promotable won't make you profitable as a coach.Questions to Ask Yourself:What specific problem do I solve for my clients?How can I describe the outcome of working with me without using coaching jargon?Where does my ideal client spend their time, and am I visible there?Am I talking about my qualifications or my client's transformation?The Bottom LineYour coaching qualifications prove you can do the work, but your marketing skills determine whether you'll get the chance to. Master both sides of the scale, and you'll have a thriving coaching business.Have you enjoyed this episode? Find out more and take the FREE quiz at: ⁠⁠https://thecoachingrevolution.com/⁠⁠ Join the FREE Facebook group at: ⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/buildacoachingbusiness⁠

In this episode of the Rocket Chiro Podcast, Jerry answers one of the most common questions in chiropractic business and marketing: "How do I get more new patients?"

Whether you're just starting out or feeling stuck, this episode will give you clarity, direction, and a plan to move forward.

Online Marketing Websites, SEO, Google Ads, social media, email, and digital content creation 2. Offline Marketing Referrals, local networking, events, community outreach, print, and face-to-face marketing 3. Retention Onboarding, communication, patient experience, and follow-up systems that keep people coming back Foundational Steps to Get Started: Clarify your marketing message: Who are you, and how do you help? Build and maintain a professional website Set up and optimize your Google Business Profile Create and maintain relevant social media accounts Implement a simple, effective plan for gathering reviews and referrals Key Questions to Ask Yourself: What are my current skills? What are my interests? What are my available opportunities? What is my timeline? What is my budget? These questions will help you decide what to focus on next and avoid wasting time and money.

Remember Why You LeftWrite down or mentally revisit the reasons why you walked away in the first place. If the situation was toxic, stagnant, or unfulfilling, remind yourself that time away hasn't necessarily changed those core issues.2. Romanticizing the Past Is a TrapIt's easy to look back and remember the good times while ignoring the bad. Be real with yourself—was it really as great as your nostalgia is making it seem?3. Create Boundaries & Stick to ThemIf you truly want to move forward, set clear boundaries. This means limiting or cutting off contact, unfollowing them on social media if necessary, and avoiding places or situations that might tempt you.4. Find Closure Within YourselfSometimes, we go back because we feel like we need closure. The reality is, closure isn't always something we get from others—it's something we give ourselves. Accept what happened, make peace with it, and move on.5. Keep Yourself Busy & FocusedWhen you're leveling up, you don't have time to backtrack. Fill your time with things that contribute to your personal growth—whether that's work, hobbies, self-care, or new relationships that actually align with your goals.6. Accountability HelpsTell a trusted friend or someone who truly supports your growth about your decision to move forward. They can help check you if you start slipping.7. Ask Yourself: What's Really Changed?Before even considering going back, ask yourself: What has actually changed? Have they shown consistent, long-term growth? Have you? If the answer is no, then it's just a cycle waiting to repeat itself.8. Trust That Better Is ComingYou don't need to settle for the past when your future holds something greater. Stay patient and open to new opportunities instead of revisiting old, familiar disappointments.

Episode 140: Leadership, Self Energy, & the Internal Family Systems Model with Rachel Bentley As therapists, business owners, and leaders, we often feel pressure to have all the answers. But what if the most impactful leadership doesn't come from perfection—but from embracing our humanity and ongoing growth? That's exactly what I explored in my conversation with Rachel Bentley on The Innovative Therapist Podcast (Episode 140). Rachel is an Internal Family Systems (IFS) Level 2 trained therapist, group practice owner, and business consultant. She leads a 40-clinician practice with locations in Michigan and helps therapists navigate leadership, self-energy, and sustainable business growth. In this episode, we dive into: How Internal Family Systems (IFS) can transform therapist leadership The role of self-energy in decision-making and leadership Overcoming imposter syndrome & self-doubt Why creativity and the Zone of Genius matter for therapists How to build a leadership team without burning out The Power of IFS in Therapist Leadership Rachel shared how IFS has revolutionized her leadership as a group practice owner. Instead of leading from a place of control or fear, she now understands how her internal parts—the ones managing decision-making, leadership stress, and self-doubt—can work together. Why Self-Energy is the Key to Effective Leadership IFS isn't just a clinical tool—it's a leadership framework. Rachel discussed how recognizing and working with her own parts has helped her: ✅ Lead with more confidence and clarity ✅ Trust her intuition in making business decisions ✅ Navigate the challenges of growing a large team ✅ Avoid burnout by recognizing protective parts before they take over Many therapists struggle with imposter syndrome, especially when running a business. Rachel's insights show that leading with self-energy—rather than fear-based parts—creates a more sustainable and authentic business. Creativity & the Zone of Genius for Therapists One of the most exciting parts of our conversation was Rachel's journey with creativity. Like many therapists, she didn't initially consider herself creative. However, she's discovered that creativity isn't just about art or music—it's about problem-solving, visioning, and innovation. What is the Zone of Genius? The Zone of Genius is the space where your natural talents and passions intersect. It's where work feels energizing instead of draining. Rachel and I explored how therapists can identify their Zone of Genius and lean into work that truly excites them. Ask Yourself: What part of your work lights you up the most? Where do you feel the most “flow” and self-energy? Creating Spaces Where We Don't Have to Prove Ourselves Therapists often feel pressure to appear “perfect”—as if we should always have it all together. But true leadership comes from embracing vulnerability and authenticity. Rachel and I discussed the importance of creating spaces where therapists can show up without unrealistic expectations. Whether it's within group practices, consulting, or therapist communities, we need places where: ✔️ We can ask questions without judgment ✔️ We don't have to prove our worth ✔️ We can be real about struggles and challenges Thinking About Starting a Group Practice? Read This First. A key topic we covered was how therapists can decide whether group practice ownership is right for them. Rachel often works with therapists navigating the solo-to-group transition, helping them consider: ❓ What is your why for starting a group practice? (Curiosity vs. Judgmental Why) ❓ Are you comfortable with leadership & delegation? ❓ Do you understand the realities of scaling a business? ❓ Are you willing to work through your own parts and fears? Join the Conversation & Build a Meaningful Practice This episode is packed with insights for therapists looking to lead with self-energy,

Unplugging for a week won't make or break your show—but it might give you the clarity you need.What can you take off your plate? Buying back time might mean outsourcing, simplifying your process, or saying no to things that drain you.Where can you find support? Podcasting can feel isolating, but it doesn't have to be. A membership, a mastermind, or even a group of like-minded creators can make all the difference.If you're feeling resentful, exhausted, or like you have nothing left to give, pause before you quit. These stats are a wake-up call, but they don't have to be your story.

The Lord gave another message to Jeremiah. He said, “Go down to the potter's shop, and I will speak to you there.” So I did as he told me and found the potter working at his wheel. But the jar he was making did not turn out as he had hoped, so he crushed it into a lump of clay again and started over. Then the Lord gave me this message: “O Israel, can I not do to you as this potter has done to his clay? As the clay is in the potter's hand, so are you in my hand.” Jeremiah 18:1-6 NLT 1. Jeremiah saw the potter Remember, I pray, that You have made me like clay. Job 10:9 NKJV In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1 NLT In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God. He existed in the beginning with God. John 1:1-2 NLT 2. Jeremiah saw the wheel And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them. Romans 8:28 NLT 3. Jeremiah saw the clay Sin is simply when we resist God's Will. ​​In a well-furnished kitchen there are not only crystal goblets and silver platters, but waste cans and compost buckets—some containers used to serve fine meals, others to take out the garbage. Become the kind of container God can use to present any and every kind of gift to his guests for their blessing. 2 Timothy 2:20-21 MSG LIFE WILL NEVER MAKE SENSE UNLESS YOU LIVE A LIFE BIGGER THAN YOURSELF For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) and find out what pleases the Lord. 5:8-10 NIV 1. ASK YOURSELF “What should I STOP doing” Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them… Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise… Ephesians 5:11;15 NIV Behind your darkness is God's purpose for your life. Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:2 NLT Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you. Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. Don't get sidetracked; your feet from following evil. Proverbs 4:25-27 NLT 2. ASK YOURSELF “What should I START doing” Making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is. Ephesians 5:16-17 NIV Remember, it is sin to know what you ought to do and then not do it. James 4:17 NLT “Give your entire attention to what God is doing right now, and don't get worked up about what may or may not happen tomorrow. God will help you deal with whatever hard things come up when the time comes.” Matthew 6:34 MSG 3. ASK YOURSELF “What AM I WAITING FOR” I tell you, now is the time of God's favor, now is the day of salvation. 2 Corinthians 6:2 NLT People that procrastinate talk about a life of purpose. People who take initiative live a life of purpose. Why do you Matter? 1. You Matter to our Church God is looking for passionate disciples. I was glad when they said to me, “Let us go to the house of the lord.” Psalms 122:1 NLT But the time is coming—indeed it's here now—when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way. John 4:23 NLT God is looking for compassionate disciples. For “Everyone who calls on the name of the lord will be saved.” But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them? And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? That is why the Scriptures say, “How beautiful are the feet of messengers who bring good news!” Romans 10:13-15 NLT 2. You Matter to our Community Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. James 5:16 NLT Well our Church must become larger and smaller at the same time Small groups create 3 things we all need A place to Connect A place to Protect A place to Grow 3. You Matter to God There are different kinds of spiritual gifts, but the same Spirit is the source of them all. There are different kinds of service, but we serve the same Lord. God works in different ways, but it is the same God who does the work in all of us. A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other; But our bodies have many parts, and God has put each part just where he wants it… 1 Corinthians 12:4-7;18 When you live beyond yourself the meaning of life comes into focus and life has purpose! But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God. Acts 20:24 NLT

You want to be accountable with food. You want to follow through with healthy eating and lose the weight. Yet, you find yourself not keeping up with that standard. You make plans to eat healthier, then eventually stop prioritizing the changes you want to make. Ask Yourself: What exactly about holding yourself accountable with food stops being sustainable? At what point do you stop holding yourself to that standard? It's not the healthy eating decisions that are unsustainable. It's your approach to holding yourself accountable. In this episode, I'm sharing the two approaches to accountability with food. You'll learn the difference between pressure and responsibility with healthy eating.  Learning this difference is what will allow you to hold yourself to a high-standard in this area of your life — without exhausting yourself emotionally in the process.

Ask Yourself: What are the expectations you will have of your body when you eat healthy and lose weight? What will you demand from your body in return for the effort you put in? To change your results with your body, you will need to change your relationship with your body. It's a non-negotiable first step. Many of us start with an expectant and transactional relationship to our body, where we believed we're “owed the changes we want” from it. This mindset will only lead to discouragement and frustration. It will compel you to quit even if you're making progress towards your goals. Instead, you want to transition from expectation to a relationship where you meet your body's needs.

This Podcast Is Episode Number 491, And It's About What Sets Your Construction Company Apart Let me start by saying it's good if you have competition. Indeed, competition pushes you to be innovative. It also means there's an established community for your services. If no one else is offering the service, there's a chance there's no market for it.   But, have you always wondered how a small construction company like yours could stand out from the crowd and its competitors? Awareness of what others in your industry have developed and provided leads to a newfound motivation and belief in making an impactful difference, whether within your company or your community.     The key to benefitting from the competition is knowing how to take on competitors. You measure your share in the particular segment you operate in and obsess about your immediate competition, just as contractors who did not market effectively did years ago.   But first, you need to step back and ask yourself these three key questions and make sure you answer them in a way that will define and liberate your construction company at the same time. Ask Yourself: What am I offering? New construction, remodeling, or service and repair? Who is my competition? DIY, other contractors, money homeowners for a construction project? What is my fundamental competency - Residential, Commercial, or both? Challenging yourself is the key to answering these questions. Write your answers on paper or computer, sleep on them and then revisit them again and again until you get to the truth. Define The Type Of Contracting You Offer And Who Is Your Competition Be that homeowner doing a weekend project, Handyman Contractors, Remodel Contractors, Trade Contractors, and other contractors and House Builders. It may not be the same form, structure, and category that you operate. For example, Home Depot does not see itself competing in the building supply business but for a share of the home and commercial remodel and repair market. This approach and behavior across the organization, too, saw themselves as fighting for a share of the building supply market. Getting The Leads And Doing The Work Is Only Part Of The Answer Not answering them and acting on the knowledge is one reason many construction companies shrivel and die. They focus on the wrong areas to innovate or improve. They focus on the wrong enemy and threat. As a result, they miss what they could be doing to succeed and prosper over time. Here are three ways your small construction company can establish itself from competitors and stand out from the crowd: 1. Concentrate, then generate. What separates wealthy contractors from poor contractors? They concentrate then generate. Returning to the critical questions at the start, successful contractors know what type of contracting they are good at. SWOT Analysis is one tool used in strategic planning for construction companies to evaluate the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats involved in determining the particular target market. Concentrate Strengths - are projects that your construction company does exceptionally well and earns a higher than average gross margin that gives you an advantage over other contractors. What are they, and how can your construction contracting company expand on them? Weaknesses - are projects your construction company does poorly at and breaks even or loses money. What are they, and how can your construction contracting company turn them into strengths? Opportunities - are projects and markets not currently being served where your construction company can enter and turn them into strengths. Have you considered tapping into the "work-from-home" market during this time? Or commercial establishments looking to remodel to implement a better floor plan? Threats - are elements outside your construction company that could cause trouble for you or your construction projects. What are they, and how can your construction contracting company turn them into opportunities? A SWOT analysis will help you identify each of these characteristics for your business to understand better what you're doing well, what you could improve, and which external factors could affect your business. Generate Marketing is a science, not an art. Now that you've analyzed your SWOT, you laid the foundation by having a vision for what your Construction Company will be when you finish building it, you know who you are, and you know who your prime client is. You can quickly generate more leads than you can handle. 2. Give the client what they want and deliver an excellent service. There's room enough in most industries for competition. While it's a good idea to know who you're against, your clients are your priority. Focus your efforts on providing goods and services meaningful to them, addressing their pain points, and improving their lives. Market yourself to make those aspects clear. Show them why you're the ideal company to hire for their project.   Large businesses have weaknesses. The bigger they are, the less personalized and responsive their service is. They market themselves to a broader audience and have to bring in more clients to cover their costs because their overhead is higher.  In this respect, your size is an advantage. Fewer customers mean more personal service. That opportunity for relationship building will entice customers looking for extra attention.   Examine what people love about your competitors but also what frustrates them. Build your construction business to address those gaps. If you find that something isn't working with your customers early on, don't be afraid to shift. Be innovative in responding to market changes and client demands. You'll have an easier time making that change early than once you're more fully established.  3. Put together a stellar team. It is one thing to be a carpenter, plumber, electrician, framer, drywaller, painter, or any other master crafts person and quite another thing to own a construction company that performs those things while managing a business. Many small contractors have friends in the same trade and work well. Remember that being on your own is okay because employees are not required to succeed in this industry. You could also work well with a group of Trade Contractors and complete the work seamlessly as a team effort. On the other hand, you could be a one-person remodeler who may have unknowingly built a team by working with highly-skilled professionals. For instance, the person who did your company logo or the banker who helped you set up a business bank account—outsourcing a specialist to help you with the things you are not an expert on - like a Website/Social Media Manager to take care of your online presence does wonder for your Marketing without needing to hire in-house staff and do their payroll. Of course, a financial advisor or a construction accountant who has been where you want to go and can guide you will benefit your construction business. Optimize your time and skills by doing what you love and do best, and outsource the rest to operate better and grow your construction company. Final thoughts We are big fans of optimizing instead of maximizing. We've developed strategies that take the least amount of effort in the least amount of time possible. By taking advantage of existing knowledge from your competitors, you can improve and build upon these as they are relevant for you and your type of construction business. Knowing that you're different from what's already out there and why you are different makes you attractive to your target market. Be the contractor who will do whatever it takes to rise above owning a job and develop a construction business that will provide for themselves and their families for a lifetime.

“Some say that life is a rat race you will never win I say we should at least think your way to the front of it.” - Johnnie Williams IIINotice I didn't say:-Work your way to the front of it…-Run or race your way to the front of it…-Cheat your way to the front of it…Check out this video that describes a 1950 Harvard university study using similar rats that were both domesticated and wild. The study aimed to see how long the rats of different circumstance would swim before giving up. The findings were very interesting and speak to the Hope and hopelessness that is present within men and women across the globe. Some still have hope in succeeding and thriving despite the obstacles they are confronted with. But many others have given up on trying to access the possibility of getting more out of life.Don't Give Up...Do you believe you can continue to survive or even thrive within this man-made rat race?Don't give up – keep pushing – keep kicking – keep dreaming – keep loving the journey of life!!!The think about it brand and podcast or about encouraging, reminding, and inspiring good people to think critically and independently.

“As a child, I followed in my parent's footsteps… As I've gotten older, I have begun to create my own.” - Johnnie Williams IIIWho is telling your story? Is it you? What do you feed into the abyssNess of his – story?My personal story has many chapters that include highs and lows, as well as close calls and some very amazing moments too. I have been blessed and fortunate to tell my story for a living – but sometimes that has required that I relive some emotional moments. These moments have served the purpose of helping me in connecting with others currently going through a similar (present) moment or tough time. So, I will share the pieces that offer food for thought in tangible life lessons that offer value to those paying with attention.It was my father who told me and taught me to be bigger than my story and its challenging chapters. He would know – as a child he was left to battle Polio without the support and assurance of his own father who was left to battle tuberculosis – TB – after returning from World War II. So essentially, he shared in the footsteps of health-related struggles like his father… my grandfather. But it was his personal fortitude that determined that polio would not render him crippled – crippled physically nor emotionally.  So, he forged on at an early age to craft his own steps and his own perception of himself despite doctor, family, and the opinion of friends who all doubted his fate. But now, here he is telling his own amazing story of loving his wife of 51 years and raising three sons as he helps to guide his six grandchildren who too can follow in his footsteps until they're able to create and craft their own.Ask Yourself:What is one example that your parents set for you?What is something you have accomplished it makes you proud?What were your legacy be?

“If you desire to accomplish anything in life, please delete the (t) in can't; you can only succeed without it” - Johnnie Williams IIIHave you ever placed an order at a restaurant and mentioned to remove something they had as an ingredient you didn't want included? Well - let's hold the (t) - you can do it!I feel that many of us have learned can't from someone who couldn't bear to watch us fail or fall short. So, we were conditioned to say can't more often than not. I can't - you can't – we can't... sound familiar? Just saying what you can't do shouldn't feel natural coming from your mouth or feel as foreign as a language that you do not speak. Well, there is some small group out there that is busy working on removing the (t) in can(t).Are you one of them…?I see the ( T ) representing time… The time needed to develop a can't into a can! But realistically there are some things that we really are unable to do, but the sad reality is for too many of us, we will opt for adding the (t) way too soon. How many of you have once said?-I can't ride a bike – but now you do!-I can't swim – but now jump in the deep end!-I can't cook - but (now) still manage to burn a pot of boiling water ( lol ). Keep trying!-I can't do that – but now do much-much more!Know that I once said "I can't manage my own podcast… I can't edit it. I can't record it." And then I had to edit my can't and replace it with can to arrive at episode 41 of season 3.Ask Yourself:What has your heart been trying to say to you?What would happen if you actually listened?And, then what?

“Time, like the things we eat, expires quickly… So, consume all of it and recycle the memories.” - Johnnie Williams IIIIt is your time!!!- time is a tool – time is a weapon – time is a teacher – time is a gift – and time is an illusion -We can't hold it; we can't contain it; but we must manage to avoid killing it. So, is it time to go or stop or rest or laugh work maybe he'll I'll grow and forgive? Is it time to think?Let me ask you…can you cook? Well – whether you can or can't yet, everything takes time to make. And life is much like a cookbook in that a process must be followed to produce a tasteful outcome. This episode highlights the fact that we all have general access to very similar ingredients like information, experiences, skills, relationships, and life examples. But what separates the shift from the person warming a can of Chef Boyardee is the use of time and a process.

After my senior year in high school, I quit playing volleyball. It was a shock to many of my coaches, teammates, and parents. Mostly because I was destined to play in college, somewhere. There was pressure coming from all directions to be successful at the next level. It wasn't a matter of if I was going to play in college, it was where. Looking back, I can see how clearly one thing was controlling me (and how it controls many of the athletes I work with today!)What is it? Fear of success. You'd be surprised how many female athletes are held back by the fear of their own success. Personally, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to live up to the expectation that others had of me in their minds. And it wasn't until I embraced and moved past this fear that I was able to finish out my career as a successful (and happy!) collegiate volleyball player. In this episode, I dive into what this fear is, how to spot it, and mindset shifts to help athletes move through it. What is Fear of Success?First, we need to examine what “success” is in the eyes of many female athletes. Success could mean:-   Being good (and maybe better than teammates/opponents)-   Getting recognition-   Achieving new levels or playing on higher teams-   Being a bigger contributor on the team (scoring the most points, making the plays, etc)These all sound like good things, right? They are, but in many female athlete's minds, these successes can also mean...-   Being expected to live up to a new standard, and fear of failure if the expectation is not met-   Jealousy from teammates-   More work-   More pressure to performIt can feel overwhelming and cause athletes to shut down before they even start, stopping them in their tracks and preventing them from reaching potential. What Does Fear of Success Look Like?For many athletes that struggle with fear of success, it can look like:- Hesitating:- Not giving their all- Quitting/Losing Motivation- Procrastination/Avoidance of TrainingStrategies to Overcome Fear of Success:Much of overcoming this fear includes shifting athlete's mindsets and creating new thoughts and stories around their success. Here are three ways:1. Realize that more damage is done by avoiding success2. Understand that being great doesn't mean being perfect3. Ask Yourself: What story do you want to write?There you have it. The fear of success is very real for many female athletes. It's one I've battled as an athlete and still struggle with from time to time as a business owner and entrepreneur. **********Helpful Links:Visit our podcast website for more on this episodeDownload the free resources we've created for youJoin us inside our FREE Facebook Group - The Elite Competitor Society - for weekly Q&A, periodic trainings and challenges, and the support of an amazing community of moms, coaches, and the men who partner with us!The BEST way to help us spread the word and get this information into the hands of millions of parents, coaches, and female athletes is by leaving a rating and review on Apple Podcasts.

Sometimes we desire something for so long, then later realize that what we once desired is no longer the best opportunity for us. And that's ok. We grow and evolve. Sometimes we need to experience things to discover the best path to take. That path can change over time.   I recently made a huge decision, which was letting go of a great opportunity at a new station in Texas. It would have been a two year contract as a Digital New Anchor/Host, which was a dream opportunity. Before my start date I realized that although this was a great opportunity, it was no longer the best opportunity for me in this season of my life.   Breakdown of what's included in this episode:   0:00 - 0:21 Chasing Opportunities 0:21 - 0:40 Intro 0:41 - 1:52 Don't Underestimate You Experiences 1:53 - 12:05 I Wanted To Be A News Reporter 12:06 - 12:46 Commercial Break: Money Yoga Session 12:47 - 17:22 I Accepted The New Station Job But Something Changed 17:23 - 19:01 Letting Go Of My Dream Opportunity  19:02 - 20:00 What or Who Do You Need To Let Go Of? 20:01 - 22:52 Learn How To Make Decision And Not Sit For Too Long 22:53 - 23:04 Ask Yourself: What or Who Do I Need to Let Go Of? 23:05 - 25:08 Join the Daily Money Habits Text Community 25:09 - 25:21 Outro    Special thanks to Cleo Greene (News Anchor WFAA ABC Dallas) and Kamara Daughtry (Digital Career Opportunities Worldwide)   The Financially Free with Cleo Podcast is available on YouTube and all podcasting platforms (Apple, Spotify, Google, iHeart, Amazon, PodBean) cleoyogafinance.com/podcast   Text MONEY HABITS to 615-813-4827 to join the Daily Money Habits Text Community cleoyogafinance.com/offers/daily-money-habits-text-community   Join me every Sunday at 11:00am CST for a Money Yoga Session cleoyogafinance.com/money-yoga   Grab Your Financial Affirmation Cards  cleoyogafinance.com/offers/financial-affirmations   Let's Stay Connected:    Instagram  instagram.com/cleoyogafinance/   YouTube https://bit.ly/3qoFL12   TikTok tiktok.com/@cleoyogafinance   LinkedIn linkedin.com/in/cleochildress/   Twitter twitter.com/cleoyogafinance   Facebook facebook.com/CleoYogaFinance   Website cleoyogafinance.com/

Ask YOURSELF -- What can I change to serve myself WELL?  Growth is intimidating. It's intimidating at the start, and all throughout the process! But don't let it stop you from chasing the dream. Those big companies with the big following on social media all started SOMEWHERE. You will never get THERE, if you don't start RIGHT HERE. Let's just put one foot in front of the other, and the road will keep appearing. You DON'T need to see the whole street before you take that first step.  There's a sense of needing to be “enough” to get started, but it's NOT TRUE. It's so important to challenge yourself, allow growth, invite a team member, and WORK TOWARDS YOUR GOAL! Nobody is doing it on their own, and nobody knows exactly what they're doing either!  Find your WHY. Find your why, and don't stray from it! There can be so many easier + faster ways to produce the product you're after, but is that REALLY what you're wanting? Sometimes, putting in the extra effort to spend a little more time, a little more focus, and maybe a little more money can be WORTH it to stick to your WHY and accomplish your DREAM.
