"You can't have all the great parts of your life without polarity; you have to have some contrast. Sometimes the hard things, the endings of things, or the rejuvenation of partnerships is exactly the thing that needs to happen." Often, the holiday season brings up many of the cracks in the foundation of the most significant partnerships in your life, whether family, romantic, or even business partnerships. If you are like me, 2022 was very eye-opening personally and professionally, and I recognized that some of the partnerships I had hooked to my trailer weren't working the way I wanted them to. And I had to make some changes. Today, I'm sharing how the Enneagram can help you better discern whether your partnerships need some tweaking with better communication and more understanding of each other or maybe it's time for some of those relationships to end. Listen in as I share how you can start this year off on a solid foundation by doing the hard work of looking at your personal and professional relationships so you can accelerate the transformation you need NOW, in the beginning, to set yourself up for more success in 2023. I do powerful couple and partner Enneagram sessions. I use my Enneagram Blueprint to help you reach a different level of communication and compassion for the person you have chosen to partner with! We'll look at why you're great together and unlock the power of your partnership. Find out more at Tracy O'Malley.com in the work with me section.

To be a successful entrepreneur and investor, you need to learn how to turn a no into a yes. Today's guest, Anthony Michael, has earned his title as a successful entrepreneur from doing just that. Through determination, calculated risk, and finding ways to create value, Anthony has done thirteen flips while also becoming a trusted lender. Anthony's real estate investing journey started when he realized he needed to gain control of his money. After his first flip, a live in flip on the house he and his wife had just bought, he knew flipping was something he could do for profit. From there he found his first partner, one of his co-workers, and began to flip even more houses. The second partner he found rejected him at first, even though his online profile (with no profile picture) was pretty much anonymous. Despite this, Anthony was drawn to this mystery partner and his alleged “400 flips” so he flew out to meet this so-called legend and was pleasantly surprised when he was exactly who he said he was.Anthony could have stopped there but he decided to tap into a new source of income; lending. It started with him asking his neighbor what he did for a living and now he's the top-rated lender on BiggerPockets. The ability to create value and persist has allowed Anthony to become not only a great real estate investor but an amazing entrepreneur.

Alex Qi was brought up in an entrepreneurial family and environment, growing up in one of the biggest tech hub in north America. One could say that he had the support, the background and the means to be successful early in life. But having a good background wasn’t the only reason of his success, but a lot of it is a result of his hard-work, building meaningful relationships and discovering his innate passion allowing him to explore things that he can do business about. In this episode, Alex shared his valuable insights on how to start a business, how to form an idea by the help of networking, and what you need to possess to be able to be a valuable asset to a company. Learning about how his company, Mercku, was founded and became successful will also give us an idea on how a company’s culture plays a great role in its success. Here’s What You Missed How your environment will impact you, but more so the mindset that you live withHow luck plays a role in your success, but more so the hard-work and sacrifice that you put into itHow you could start a business without foregoing your main job at the beginningHow building meaningful relationships and keeping in touch will help you in building or being a part of a businessHow to discover your core passion and find opportunities around it Knowledge Nuggets [3:02] When you are surrounded with people with great ideas, it will shape your entrepreneurial dreams. People around you and the environment that you are brought up with will have an impact on you, one way or the other. You cannot choose in which place or community you are born in, but later in life, you will have the power to decide what kind of ideas, of culture and what kind of people you will let to influence you. [7:16] Enjoy experiences early on life. There is a saying that experience is the best teacher. If you are going through apprenticeship right now, or you are taking roles that you know you may not find yourself doing in the next few years, do not take for it granted. Embrace the experience, learn from it, and build meaningful relationships with the people you work with. [11:34] Luck may play factor in a success, but hard-work plays the most part. Hard-work is a drive that you learn over time, from your mentor, from your colleagues or from the results that you get from your work. Success will look flashy front-end but it will take a lot sacrifice on the back-end. [16:37] If you are starting a business, it does not necessarily mean you have to forego everything. Some started their business as a side hustle. Just like how we spend a lot of time with our hobbies, we can spend the hours after our main job to work on our business at the beginning. [22:15] Building a team or being a part of one is about networking. Talk to people and start networking, get involved in local agencies, be active in a community you are a part of. Good opportunities may arise of you’ve networked for it in a while. [29:02] More than the experience, companies look at the candidates’ characteristics if they align with the company’s culture. Because the experiences, roles, and tasks can be learned over time, if you have the right attributes. [33:03] Find what your are passionate about at the core and explore things around it. This is one way of discovering an idea, an avenue and entrepreneurial aspirations that you could dive into. If you understand your passion, it’s not hard to go after it.

Hey there! Welcome to our Friday MINISERIES. We created these MINISERIES because y’all have so many amazing questions, and we want to be able to answer as many of them as we can in easy digestible ways. Outside of our main, full length HOD episodes which will mainly be interview style with some epic guests (and on occasion some solo episodes), we also wanted to be able to cover other topics with short, succinct thoughts and advice. Each miniseries will be themed around a pointed and specific topic and will be about 4-6 episodes long. They will launch on Fridays and be no more than around 15 minutes. The first week we talked about a guideline for Stage 1 Dating and then last week we talked about the art of intentionality and how you can be intentional in 4 main areas at the beginning of dating … intentional in your ask, intentional in your questions, intentional in your comments and intentional in your follow up. Today we are going to talk about how to NOT be awkward in stage 1 dating which also includes knowing the best kind of dates to do at the beginning of the dating process. Also, we want to share with you that we are actually able to do these miniseries because of our amazing sponsor, Faithful Counseling. Faithful Counseling is a faith based online therapy network that falls under the incredible BetterHelp umbrella. We are HUGE fans of therapy, but especially love therapy that incorporates Christian principles, prayer, and spiritual practices. Getting connected with an affordable christian therapist is SO easy through Faithful Counseling….you can fill out a form about yourself and your needs, and Faithful Counseling will connect you with a fellow believer online within their network of licensed professional counselors. Once you are connected to a therapist, you can start communicating in under 24 hours. You can also login to your account anytime and send a message to your counselor and get timely and thoughtful responses back. You can also schedule weekly video or phone sessions and do them from the comfort of your home, in your most comfy attire. Another huge perk that comes with using Faithful counseling is that there is such a broad range of expertise in the Faithful Counselor network which may not be locally available in many areas. The last cherry on top is that a lot of people do not do therapy because of the cost, but Faithful Counseling more affordable than traditional offline counseling and financial aid is available. So you guys, if you’ve been looking to try out therapy but haven’t found someone for you, or it’s been too costly, or you just don’t want to make the trek to the office…. we encourage you to consider trying out Faithful Counseling.
