Nathan Payne is the co-founder of Offer on Homes and Investor Drive, a wholesaling investment firm and real estate coaching platform helping investors scale their portfolios the “Painless” way. With a background in door-to-door sales and a passion for autonomy, Nathan has built a thriving real estate business while living his dream lifestyle in rural Ontario. He specializes in wholesaling, flipping, and coaching clients through real-world deals using a hands-on apprenticeship model. Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Nathan transitioned from door-to-door sales to real estate after seeking a lifestyle with more autonomy and time freedom. He emphasizes real-world coaching through deal partnerships, not just video courses or information dumps. Wholesaling success comes from embracing rejection, refining your sales process, and staying persistent through messy deals. Building savings and having a support system are critical when transitioning into entrepreneurship. Real estate investing should align with your lifestyle goals—not just financial benchmarks. Topics From Sales Hustler to Rural Investor Started in door-to-door sales before quitting to launch a real estate business with his roommate. Lacked marketing and deal flow at first, but invested heavily in coaching and mentorship to improve. After seven years in the business, he moved with his family to a farm in Ontario, living a slower, intentional life. Lessons from the Early Grind Faced rejections, lost contracts, and failed deals when first starting. Learned that sales tactics differ between products—urgency pressure may work for cable, not for homes. Paid for mentorship after realizing trial-and-error was too costly and time-consuming. Painless Flipping and Coaching Philosophy Teaches students by reviewing live deals, helping them qualify leads, and even partnering on closings. Emulates an apprenticeship model: direct feedback, ongoing support, and real deal experience. Rejects the passive “info-only” coaching model in favor of outcome-driven partnerships. Living With Purpose, Not Pressure No longer driven by money—prioritizes time with family and coaching a handful of serious clients. Believes success is defined by clarity and self-awareness, not vanity metrics or hustle culture. Coaches students to align investing strategy with lifestyle goals from day one.

Discover how treating your company like a theater project ensures you have the right people in the right roles for maximum impact. Show Notes: An entrepreneur's primary job is to push things forward, not get stuck in bureaucratic processes.The least productive thing you can say to your team as an entrepreneur is, “I'm unhappy with you, but I'm not going to tell you why.”The 4 x 4 Casting Tool tells people how you expect them to show up, how they show progress in terms of getting things done, how they can be a hero to you, and how they can drive you crazy.It also empowers team members to take ownership of their roles within the company.When someone new joins your team, it's your job to tell them what the game plan is and what's expected of them. People can't read your mind.Traditional job descriptions are impersonal and technical, and they fail to capture the nuanced working relationships that can (and should) develop in a growth-focused team.Having a Self-Managing Company® means that every team member is managing their constant growth and contributions in the company.You can't complain and create at the same time.Remote work has fundamentally changed team dynamics, and it will take more effort to ensure team members feel connected to each other—and your vision.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Rochelle Seltzer discuss:Embracing creativity for professional and personal growthManaging client relationships and workload creativelyBuilding an authentic personal brandUnlocking creativity in structured professions Key Takeaways:Lawyers can build a more fulfilling practice by choosing clients selectively, raising rates, and letting go of work that doesn't align with their strengths, helping to prevent burnout.Short breaks throughout the day, even just to breathe or walk, help the right brain process information freely, often leading to "aha" moments that strict schedules may block.Starting the day with a quick intention, like five minutes of journaling, creates a mental foundation for openness, curiosity, and meaningful progress in both work and life.Reconnecting with personal interests, like gardening, music, or cooking, releases creative energy, boosts motivation, sparks new ideas, and adds enthusiasm to daily tasks.

It doesn't matter how much time you have; it's about how you make it count.” “The one thing you can do that will almost bulletproof your marriage is to pray intentionally with each other.” “As business owners, we waste more time than we realize. If you audit your time and where you're spending it, are those areas productive? I guarantee you, 100% of the time, it's not. In fact, only 20% of our time is actually spent on productive work. We need to flip the ratio to make 70% of our time productive.” “Business is personal because it involves people.” “What's ordinary to you is magic to other people.” “Actions speak louder than words. People want to be shown, not told.” “The more you affirm someone, the better it is for the relationship.” “The best leaders I've ever known have been the ones who, when something goes wrong, take the blame, even though they're not at fault.

Hello dear listener,As you know, the lunar cycle helps us pay attention because it's always changing. Lunar tracking shows us how to find our own rhythm and energy amidst the fluctuations. It reminds us that we don't have to fix ourselves - and can actually help us feel empowered to be more in-season with where we are at currently. On today's episode I have the pleasure of speaking with published author and coach Vanessa Wright about ways to feel empowered and flow with life's challenges and how pausing can lead to transformation. She shares about how her practice of lunar tracking and purposefully seeing joy supported her through perimenopause to menopause, and the lasting effects this had on her creativity and view of cycles and seasons.In our conversation Vanessa describes her experience of returning to her ancestral lands in Italy and a powerful Moonstory that marks a major turning-point in her journey. Moonstories are what I like to call the moments in our lives when the presence of the moon was witnessing us at a pivotal crossroads. In these moments, we can feel like we are actually not alone and may receive new insight to continue on our path. I loved what she shared and I hope it inspires you to notice your own Moonstory moments. We muse about the reliability of the moon - especially when things can feel unmoored or like everyone else is relying on us and we need something that can hold us - in this case during big life initiations like menopause. This is a great episode for moms and people in caretaking roles who want to feel more inspired to find five minutes a day to connect with themselves to reduce stress and invite more awareness and magic. There are some incredible insights we shared about not having to do it “right” with the moon, but being curious and noticing patterns to sense our own energy. Join us as we explore practices that are replenishing, but aren't always the same - as we cycle through different stages of life. Vanessa is a certified life coach, writer, seasoned homeschooling mom, and speaker dedicated to empowering midlife mothers through her FLOW method. She helps women reclaim their energy, creativity, and joy by fostering sustainable self-care practices. In this episode she gives us a glimpse of her FLOW self-care method and the benefits of awareness at each stage of life.Feed your body, mind, spiritLove yourself and lean into your season of lifeOwn your time and spaceWeed out what's not working and welcome something new. Vanessa is a former contributor to the popular The Homeschool Mom blog. Since 2017, she has served as the special projects and content associate at Big Life Journal.

It could be a book that you read recently, or even one that you read a very long time ago, but it still has had a great impact on you. · Could you also share with us what's the one thing that's going on in your life right now that you are really excited about, either something you're working on to develop yourself or your people. · Where can listeners find you online? · Just want to ask you as well, Alan, in your experience, in the journey of your lifetime, if you have a quote or saying that during times of adversity or challenge, if for any reason, you got derailed. Do you have a quote or a saying that once repeated or just remembered it helps to get you back on track? Highlights Alan's Journey Me: Now, could you start by sharing with our listeners a little bit about your journey, how it is that you got from where you were to where you are today. Alan shared that he started as an electronic engineer, it wasn't his fault, he grew up watching Airwolf Night Rider and MacGyver, so he thought that's what he'd be doing. Unfortunately, he lost his dad when he was quite young, he was about 12 years old, but he was an engineer, so he thought that'd be a good thing to do. But he was doing it for about 3 years after graduating, and he read a book called You're Born an Original, Don't Die a Copy by John Mason, and he said, “If you passionately hate what you're doing for more than 2 weeks, you need to stop,” and he'd been doing it for two years. And a friend of his suggested he goes into sales, which he then tried and please if your listeners don't drop off now, but he got asked to leave his first sales jobs, but it was frustrating. As an engineer, he believed in cause and effect. He believes that there's things you do that get you certain outcomes. He was doing everything they told him to do, but he couldn't find a way to get through, he'd be good at his product, he was passionate to what he was doing, but he wasn't able to succeed. And then he worked under a manager, he said to him, “Alan, is sales a job or a profession?” So, he knew the right answer, the right answer was, it's a profession. And he said, “Well, how hard did you study for this profession?” And then the penny drops, and from there on out, been a passionate reader, 50 to 60 books a year, generally related to psychology, self-development and sales and over time, realized that the big change in sales is sales management, and that's a short view of his journey to where he was and how he got here. Mindset Needed for Sales Professionals Me: Now you deal with a lot of sales professionals, and I can imagine it starts with their mindset. Can you share with us maybe two overarching themes that you try to help sales professionals master in terms of their mindset, to get them to where you need them to be in order to master their sales? Alan stated that it's a great question, and it speaks to the tone of your podcast. So, the first mindset they have to own is that “Selling won't help, but helping will sell.” That the sale is the reward for an intent to create value. And that's the starting point when we realize that we are service orientated, that we're there to drive value into the client's business or life, that there's something specifically we're trying to do, that were truthfully customer centric it's not just a word, and we realize that selling won't help, but helping will sell. You'll find that salespeople do really well. There's a wonderful book called Selling With Noble Purpose: How to Drive Revenue and Do Work That Makes You Proud by Lisa Earle McLeod, and it shows the research behind the top performing sales professionals globally sell with that noble purpose, with an idea to serve. So, it's definitely one of them. The second one is probably an extension, he said to sales professionals, “If you believe in the product you sell and you believe it can add value to the person you're serving, then it would be borderline negligent to avoid offering them that value.” Many salespeople, specifically today are fearful of cold calling or proactive sales calling or reaching out or picking up a phone or speaking to someone, and they take on a very much non-human sales approach, as opposed to going, “I believe, with certainty and conviction that what I have to offer will make their lives or their business easier, and I'm here to help, and helping will sell. So, I'm going to depart from that point.” And what you find is doing that, apart from that point, the skills, the body language, all the risks that start to develop quite naturally, but often we avoid that, we try to train the skill, but we avoid the mindset. Barriers To Overcome as Salespeople Me: So, once you tackle their mindset, now you have to ensure that what they're selling, as you mentioned before, is actually helping the customer and adding value to the customer's life. What are some barriers that you believe a lot of salespeople face, why it is you believe they're not successful? Alan shared that he thinks the big barrier specifically in professional selling is conviction of the value proposition, and before that is clarity. And he'll give a couple of examples. When he speaks to business leaders, they often say to him, “You know what Alan, the challenge with our sales teams are they just don't understand our value proposition.” And he says, okay, great. What is your value proposition? And they struggle to articulate it. Now, if you think about this, why is it that entrepreneurs can sell quite effectively without ever having been trained in that skill, and the reality is they have clarity and conviction of their value proposition. He thinks with many sales professionals, we're teaching them the product, we're not teaching them the impact it has on the customer's life. Once we buy into the impact, once we have the conviction, selling is a natural part of how we are as humans and Dan Pink wrote that book To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Moving Others. And his (Alan) example is we have a brand over there, it's called Woolworths, it's a high-quality brand, high quality food brand. And if you said to anyone, “But why shopping in Woolworths? They're so expensive.” They dive into a defense, without being paid by this company, they will sell very hard the value of doing that. The same could be said for someone who's an Apple phone fan. And he can continue, once we have conviction of something, the ability and need to persuade is actually quite natural. So, he thinks what's missing from an individual's perspective is that conviction of the mindset. From a corporate, it's the fact that we speak about customer centricity, but none of our measurement metrics or meetings actually align to that. Me: Now, I found that in a lot of organizations, they're heavily sales driven, right? I find it as a customer service trainer when companies hire me to come in and train their team, especially the leadership teams in customer service, or even customer experience design or customer journey mapping, there's a lot of emphasis that I hear them talking that they have these exorbitant sales targets to meet on a month to month basis, and with these targets that they have to meet, they don't have as much time to give to customer centricity or to give to the experience, because it's all about meeting the target. How do you strike that balance as a salesperson? What would be your recommendation? Alan shared that there'd be two components. The first would be at an organizational lens, speaking to what you're saying. He thinks organizations have forgotten that when you take care of the customers, the number takes care of itself. So, we are so focused on the month, on the quarter, on the year, we're not focused on the value, and that's a shift that needs to happen. But practically, the way that shift happens is in the account planning process, when we start treating our customers and accounts and saying, what is the value we're delivering. Many companies go, what more can we sell them? What's the white space we can sell into? What does that look like? And that's the big organizational. From a salesperson's perspective, the only thing you can do is you need to figure out how to allocate your effort. And the way he says that is you have to beat everyone equally but handle them differently. You have to segment your customers, otherwise you can't take care of the ones that need to be taken care of, and your competitor is going to snatch them up. And in any sales business, he's ever worked with, if you lose, and it's generally about 10%, if you lose about 10% of your customers, you lose about 90% of your revenue. But organizations are just focused what's the next sale, what's the next sale, what's the next sale? And what happens is, we're putting two barrels on the truck, and three barrels are falling off the truck because we're not focused on the customer service. And we almost see it as something separate, and it's not. The way he articulates this is there's a thing called the value gap, it's the gap between what customers expect and what they experience. And it is everybody's job in the organization to close that gap. It's not, “Hey, sales go set the expectation. Hey, service go and deliver against that expectation.” It's an organizational mindset that we exist to close the gap between the customers expect and what they experience. And he thinks their leadership needs to start realizing that taking care of customers, the numbers take care of themselves, and that talking to a spreadsheet or talking to a CRM system or talking to data doesn't change people's behaviour. So, leadership needs to take a different perspective on this and going, what is it we do now that lays the soil in the seeds for the numbers we need? App, Website or Tool that Alan Absolutely Can't Live Without in His Business When asked about online resource that he can't live without in his business, Alan shared that right now ChatGPT. He thinks that we are negating its value in sales if we're using it incorrectly. So, he'll give you a context. As salespeople, we need to be creative and optimistic, and we're not fans of admin. So, the good news for sales professionals is a lot of our admin is going to be replaced by technology, but that's going to leave a lot of sales professionals wanting because what do you do with the time that you used to spend putting your data. But he really leverages the tool to shorten his learning curve, understanding a customer, understanding what the challenges are, understanding key things. It's a tool to summarize, it doesn't replace him as it shouldn't, it enhances him. And he was listening to one of Yanique's earlier podcasts, you talk about the human-to-human connection, and there's this thing now where we talk about human-to-human selling. And he's like, well, if you think human to human selling is new, then you haven't been around for millennia, because that's what it is. It's a human-to-human task enhanced by technology. But right now, if he talks about probably 60% to 70% of his time is given back to him because he knows to leverage ChatGPT. Books that Have Had the Biggest Impact on Alan When asked about books that have had an impact, Alan shared that that's a tough question with all the books he read, but he's going to give one that he always recommends. The first one is called The Slight Edge: Turning Simple Disciplines into Massive Success and Happiness by Jeff Olson, and the premise of the book is that simple disciplines practiced consistently over time, lead to a life of greatness, and simple errors in judgment made consistently over time, lead to a life of blame. There's no Hollywood moment, there's not one big movement, they're just simple disciplines. Look at any leader, any sports hero, any person who succeeds in their profession, they practice the disciplines. So, there's definitely one that guides his life. And then the other one is a book called The ONE Thing: The Surprisingly Simple Truth About Extraordinary Results by Gary Keller, and it's really about forgetting this construct of work life balance and finding out what's the one thing I can do such that by doing everything else is easier or unnecessary. And it talks about this work life counterbalance, and how you just keep the things that matter, you don't make them extreme fluctuations and the things that don't matter can be extreme. You can be heavily buried in a work project for three months, but during that time, don't forget your health, your family time, the things that matter. Just tone it down a bit, not all the way down. Those are two books, he'd say, personally, really drove him. As a business professional, recently read that 10x Is Easier Than 2x: How World-Class Entrepreneurs Achieve More by Doing Less by Dan Sullivan, wonderful resource for anyone that's listening, that is an entrepreneur or business owner, 10x Is Easier Than 2x. What Alan is Really Excited About Now! Me: Now, Alan, could you also share with us what's the one thing that's going on in your life right now that you are really excited about, either something you're working on to develop yourself or your people. When asked about something that he's excited about, Alan shared that he's recently moved to a smaller coastal towns that's been really good for him personally, but the big thing happening for him business wise, is there's a very large global brand that they've managed to secure that's 10x'ing our business, which is a plan they had based on that book that he's read, and starting to see how that effort, energy and focus is paying off, is really rewarding. When you read a lot of books, you can get sometimes caught up in the story and not in the action. And what's really great to see, in a proud moment for their business, is now really starting to take on some recognized global brands who are looking at effectively three guys from South Africa and saying, “We want to partner with you to do this.” So, it's a proud moment that's come, your overnight success is the longest night of your life. But really what it's been powerful is seeing the practices that they put in place now starting to bear fruit. And when you say, take care of the customers, the number takes care itself, it's actually quite prolific, how? And you know this, he's preaching to the converted, but when you understand that the only thing that matters is how customers experience you, then everything else becomes a lot easier, because their ability to grow is because they just have a track record where they phone a customer, and they love what they've done with them. And that doesn't mean it's easy to scale, it's still hard to scale. But he thinks that'd be the big thing right now, is seeing how by applying certain principles, you can stretch your own mindset, stretch your own goals, stretch your own vision for your business, and really start to play where you always believed you can. Where can listeners find Alan online? LinkedIn – Alan Versteeg Quote or Saying that During Times of Adversity Alan Uses When asked about a quote or saying that he tends to revert to, Alan shared that he has quite a few, but one of his favourites, because of its depth is, “How you do anything, is how you do everything.” And the reason that's so important is it's easy to be in a good mood when times are good, it's easy to be of a good character when times are good, it's easy to be a pleasant person when times are good, but when things are challenging, that's where your character gets tested. And how you do anything, is how you do everything. And he says to leaders all the time, Richard Branson said it so well, “The best way to take care of your customers is to take care of your employees.” Because the minute you take care of the employees, the customers feel that. And it's because how you do anything, is how you do everything. You can't be polite to your customers but rude to the person waiting at you at a restaurant or trying to help you at the airport. Airports are so fascinating because everyone complains to people who are really just trying to get you somewhere safely and within strict guidelines that people, they don't treat people well. And he believes that how you do anything, is how you do everything. And in challenging times, that tests you, can I remain of good spirit? Can I remain a good demeanor? Can I remain patient as a person when things are difficult? Can I maintain my faith? Because it's easy to maintain my faith when things are great, it's difficult when you're in the lion's den, and that's for him, a quote that just guides him and says, just remember, they still shape your character, this is a test of your character and a bad day for the ego, is a beautiful day for the soul. It's time to grow. Me: Well, thank you, Alan, so much for hopping on this podcast and sharing all of these great insights with us. It was very insightful to understand your perspective as it relates to sales and customer service, and to reinforce a lot of what we do talk about on this podcast, Navigating the Customer Experience as it relates to ensuring that the customer experience is not just managed effectively on the outside, but it needs to start on the inside. And you said it beautifully when you gave Richard Branson's quote that if you take care of your people on the inside, and they'll definitely take care of your customers on the outside. So, I think it was a really great conversation and I just really wanted to extend our deepest gratitude for your participation in our conversation today. Alan shared an extended thanks to Yanique and the work she's doing in this space. One of the things that he definitely picks up in everything Yanique shared, the customer experience is not a thing, it's a culture and when we actually realize this, everything becomes easier, because it seems obvious, it does take a lot of work, as you know, it's a profession. But when companies understand it, the only reason we exist is to create value for customers, then the customer experience is the report card. So, thank you so much for the work you're doing in this space and for having him on the show.

That vision for tomorrow demands something from you today.” “We live in a world of convenience, but when it comes to getting better, convenience is out the window.” “Getting better is not going to be convenient. It's just a requirement that you show up and do the work every day.” “When everyone's looking for the shortcut, the work is the shortcut.” “Share your stories. You never know the impact that message might have, whether it drives revenue or not.” “Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% your attitude and how you respond to it.” “Show up each day with gratitude and say, how can I steward this the best way possible?” “Your circumstances plus your perspective determine your experience. If you want to have a better experience, have a better perspective on whatever is happening around you. You get to choose your perspective on that thing, and it will be good or bad, not because of what it is, but because of the way that you view it.” BOOKS MENTIONED: 10x Is Easier Than 2x: How World-Class Entrepreneurs Achieve More by Doing Less by Dan Sullivan (https://a.co/d/eD5Kh9R) The Power of Moments: Why Certain Experiences Have Extraordinary Impact by Chip Heath and Dan Heath (https://a.co/d/h03kZtO) USEFUL RESOURCES: https://www.deshazo.me https://www.bebetterleaders.com https://www.intothestormbook.com https://www.keepchoppingwood.com https://www.instagram.com/kevindeshazo https://x.com/kevindeshazo https://www.linkedin.com/in/kevindeshazo/ https://www.facebook.com/kevindeshazospeaks/ https://www.youtube.com/user/kevindeshazo "Into the Storm: How to Turn Adversity Into Your Advantage" (https://a.co/d/fNfXnKX) "Keep Chopping Wood: An Ordinary Approach to Achieving Extraordinary Success" (https://a.co/d/fZljRly) CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://thejohnhulen.com Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen Twitter - https://www.twitter.com/johnhulen LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/
In this episode, I sit down with Kelly Noonan Gores, the talented writer, podcast host, and director of the transformative documentary HEAL. Kelly shares her journey of personal growth that followed the creation of the documentary, emphasizing the profound influence of beliefs on our reality. We dive deep into the importance of aligning the conscious and subconscious mind for true healing and explore the intricate mind-body-spirit connection that plays a crucial role in our well-being. Our discussion also touches on the impact of childhood programming, the limitations within the medical industry, and the significance of being true to oneself in relationships. Tune in to discover why honoring your inner truths and embracing authenticity are vital steps towards a more fulfilling life journey. Kelly Noonan Gores has been working in entertainment since she was seven years old. In 2012, she transitioned from acting and started Elevative Entertainment with the intention to create conscious media that informs, empowers, and inspires. She is the writer, director, and producer of the 2017 award-winning feature-length documentary Heal, and, due to the film's popularity, wrote the companion book. To continue the conversation around healing, consciousness, and personal transformation, she founded and hosts The HEAL Podcast. She is a mother, a seeker, a meditator, and loves to read, write, play sports, travel, and spend time in nature. —Kelly's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kellygores —HEAL Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/healwithkelly —Kelly's Website: https://healwithkelly.co/ —Kelly's Podcast: https://healwithkelly.co/podcast.html —HEAL Documentary: https://healwithkelly.co/documentary.html —Kelly's Book: HEAL: Discover Your Unlimited Potential and Awaken the Powerful Healer Within https://healwithkelly.co/book.html Resources From The Conversation: — Michael Beckwith Podcast: Why You Shouldn't Close Yourself Off to Spirituality with Michael Beckwith | https://markgroves.com/episode/why-you-shouldnt-close-yourself-off-to-spirituality-with-michael-beckwith/ —Dr. Kelly Brogan Podcast: End The War Against Yourself | https://markgroves.com/episode/dr-kelly-brogan-end-the-war-against-yourself/ —Kelly Turner Book: Radical Remission: Surviving Cancer Against All Odds | https://amzn.to/3YK4cJd —Dr. David R.

Business coach Dan Sullivan and marketing and advertising geniuses Joe Polish, Dean Jackson, and Mark Young have all been friends and business colleagues for years. Now, they're teaming up as the Super Partners for a very special podcast episode where they talk about what marketing really means and provide examples of elegant ideas that entrepreneurs can use to better engage their audiences. Here's some of what you'll learn in this episode:Solutions that mean no more cold calls or door-to-door sales.The purpose of advertising.How advertising can be used to help people.The difference between marketing and sales.Why selling has gotten a bad name.What's changed since Dan founded The Strategic Coach® Program 35 years ago.Why direct mail is still the greatest form of marketing in the world. Show Notes: Everyone who has a business is going to have to do marketing and selling. One elegant idea is worth more than 1,000 semi-good ideas. Perfect has become the enemy of good. Anything you put in front of somebody is marketing. Only the hungriest fish snap at the crappiest bait. Once you figure out marketing, it's the ultimate leverage. Marketing is the aggregate of all the steps you take to go from somebody not knowing you all the way to them being engaged in a relationship with you. Once you figure out a marketing algorithm, it works again and again. You can create control in your future if you learn how to put a message out there that causes people to want to give you money. There are businesses that die of starvation, and there are businesses that die of indigestion. The average person receives between 5,000 and 24,000 advertising messages daily. Part of sales is just connecting with someone. People don't buy from you because they understand what you do. People buy from you because they feel understood. Dan's definition of selling is getting someone intellectually engaged in a future result that's good for them and getting them to emotionally commit to take action to achieve that result.

In today's episode I'm excited to have peak performance coach and former Olympic skater, Paige Lawrence Champion on to discuss goal setting, mindset, productivity, and striving for success. Paige shares her experience in the 2014 Olympic games and how her work ethic began at a young age. The work she put in as an athlete, the habits, the mindsets- they're all things she brings to her entrepreneur journey. You'll learn how her coaching encourages solopreneurs and small business owners that are hard working and eager for success to prioritize what success looks like for them. She helps her coaching clients set Olympic-sized goals and how to reach them. After listening to this episode, you can take time to define what success looks like and means to you. Paige was in the 2014 Olympic games, she's a peak performance coach, a wife to Richmond Champion and a mom to Forest who was born last fall. Her coaching includes one-on-one sessions and a group program called The Arena that opens in September.
