What holds you back from starting your own business? The fear of failure? Pride? Or is it the shame? Whatever it is, it's human nature. There will be a time in your life when desperation is the motive that drives you to start your own business. When that time comes, the seven essential truths of building a business that we discuss in today's episode will be there to guide you. In this episode, Eric explains why you must have a motivating factor before starting your own business. According to him, a powerful and deeply rooted reason for pursuing your business will help you endure the tough times and stay committed to your vision. Eric also comments on mastering the ability of influence. He explains that by being authentic, you'll attract customers, employees, and collaborators who believe in you and your vision because people tend to shy away from anything that feels fake or inauthentic. He also discusses the importance of balancing humility, self-awareness, and a willingness to learn, which not only helps you grow but also enables you to build a team that complements your skills, which is crucial for long-term success.

What are the long-term gains of educated investment decisions? The COVID pandemic triggered fear and uncertainty, with many wanting to sell everything amid the stock market's 30% drop. However, disciplined investors maintained their perspective and followed their investment policy. This approach, coupled with proper financial planning, often results in a stronger portfolio after market crashes, helping investors avoid costly mistakes. In contrast, a friend who sold his business for $10 million was initially hesitant to invest in the stock market due to a lack of education, but with advice to seek higher yields and follow a well-planned asset allocation strategy, he increased his earnings from 0.05% to 4.5% annually. Throughout Jesse's monologue, he highlights examples where educated, deliberate, and disciplined decisions helped grow people's portfolios and prepare them for their long-term goals. Joe Saul-Sehy of Stacking Benjamins, returns to the podcast for the second half of the show. Jesse and Joe each brought 5 questions to ask before retirement - ideally long before retirement. Alternating, back and forth, they discover how few of these questions are about money. Sound investment and retirement planning isn't just about the number going up, but also about what you're going to do with the money you accumulate. Many of us plan to enjoy plenty of golfing during retirement, but, who among us can say we'd like to golf every day for 20 years? Join Jesse and Joe on an exploration of the questions you need to ask when planning your retirement. Key Takeaways:• Have you taken your mental and physical health into consideration when planning your retirement years? • How long do you expect to be retired? And what do you plan to do with your time? • Find something you can passionately be involved in during your retirement years. • Why “chasing kids” isn't a great retirement plan. • How to simplify your savings plan and make the most of it. • What engineers can teach us about planning for the unknown unknowns.

This episode is an exclusive sneak peak from my new eLearning academy that I just launched in tandem with my upcoming book, CONTENT CAPITALIST.
In this revisited episode, we are joined by OPG's Director of Aging Services, Sam van Kalkeren. Sam discusses how to help a loved one faced with a dementia diagnosis. He gives excellent information on how to communicate with a loved one to ensure their voice is heard as they navigate this difficult path. Sam talks about the benefits of having a care partner and what type of support they can offer the family. It is vital to have a care partner if the ailing family member lives out of state. We touch on what happens when someone with a dementia diagnosis gets a psychiatric admission and give excellent tips on keeping the loved one safe. This episode contains great information to help your aging parent handle cognitive decline. IN THIS EPISODE [2:20] How does a child support a parent facing cognitive decline? [5:20] What are the benefits of having a care partner? [8:52] What is the best way to communicate with someone with dementia? [10:40] What does Sam recommend to children when they first hear the diagnosis? [12:04] How do family members help someone struggling with dementia avoid being taken advantage of financially? [14:24] What happens when someone goes into the hospital with a psychiatric admission? [20:25] How do you help a family member who doesn't want to accept their diagnosis? KEY TAKEAWAYS Have hard conversations about how the ailing parent wants to live the rest of their life. Do they want a DNI (do not intubate) or DNR (do not resuscitate)? Know all medications and have everything laid out to help the parent. Form a relationship with a care partner if you are out of state or need additional support. Those with dementia need a lot of support. Some people can continue to live at home, work, and speak for themselves, but the proper support needs to be in place. If your loved one goes into the psychiatric emergency department, they may get scared and become aggressive. If they are sedated due to that behavior, it can be difficult to go back to inpatient care. An impatient home may not want to take the patient back if they display aggressive behavior. It's important to have a care partner to help avoid the loved one being put in a psychiatric department.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Ariana Tadler discuss:How your business card can play into your personal and professional brand. Top challenges for lawyers today. The pros and cons of multiple methods of communication. The 3 C's of professionalism. Key Takeaways:Have a business card with a QR code. It helps to communicate and connect with more people and keeps you memorable. Time management is one of the biggest challenges for lawyers today. In today's world, the sense of attention people have is much shorter than before due to devices and constant notifications. But time management is critical for lawyers. It is not rude to write down notes from meetings about follow-up things or to-do items. You want to make sure to be able to follow through with anything that was talked about in the meeting. Early is on time. Being on time (early) to meetings is the easiest way to begin to show professionalism. Being late to meetings, especially without apology or reason, will chip away at your credibility.

You can't give awards to everyone or else they lose their meaning. Stickers, pizza, and lollipops. Oftentimes adults don't try things because they are uncomfortable with them, not the students. Small extrinsic incentives are not about the award, but instead about the intrinsic feeling of being valued and admiration from the teacher. Leaders need to give specific feedback to students after observing a class to make them feel more of a sense of belonging or encouragement. You need to go out of our way to include student and teacher voice and choice. Leaders need to increase engagement by setting the example and ensuring there is follow through on what they are asking for. Make sure you are leading by listening and delegating.

In this episode, Jeff and John discuss: The tension in opportunities.Slowing down the snowfall.Bringing your family into your generous giving.Saying “no” with grace and problem-solving. Key Takeaways: Have courage to say “no” to the things that, while good, are not in alignment with your current and future goals.God is a God of clarity and unity. Spouses need to be on the same page of giving.Success breeds success. The more you are known to be generous, the more opportunities you will have to be generous.You don't have to say “yes” to all board seats or generous giving moments.

Kim Kiyosaki: Invest In Yourself And Get To Financial Freedom with Rich WomanIn this episode we have a very special guest is none other than Kim Kiyosaki. She is an Internationally renowned speaker, best-selling author of “Rich Woman” and “Good Deal, Bad Deal”, Radio Show Host, Entrepreneur and Real Estate Investor. She is also the founder of the Rich Woman organisation. Kim realised early on in her career that she didn't want to be an employee. In search of something more, she worked to develop her skills and made her first real estate purchase. She now controls millions of dollars of investment property and is committed to helping women achieve financial freedom through investing and taking control of their financial futures. Rich woman bookKim Kiyosaki wrote the book entitled “Rich Woman”. Here she shared the inspiration behind the birth of the book: (3:45)The reason Genecia I wrote Rich Woman was because Robert and I, we travel the world teaching the Rich Dad philosophy taking two big groups and I will get up on stage and I will speak to the women for just a few minutes and at every event whether it's Singapore or we're London, Tokyo, Johannesburg wherever it was at the end of the event I'd always be surrounded by women and they had the same questions and the same issues and the biggest thing I realized is there's a huge huge huge demand for women to be educated about money and actually, we women, not only have we not been expected to know much about money but we've actually been taught to depend upon somebody else for our financial well-being.Financial Literacy Financial independence is not based on gender. It happens through education. This is Kim's encouragement for women to be financially secured:(4:52)So my whole message is we need to be in control of our finances we need to step-up and be financially literate and ideally it's up to each one of us to be financially secured (5:07)Nobody's gonna do that for us (5:09)No financial advisor no financial planner it's up to us. And it's not rocket science anybody can do it but it takes time and it takes education She added that to be financially stable requires a process: (6:17)Actually starting to take control of your finances starts very simple. You start small and take baby steps we don't go for the big deals we stick with the small deals. And the most important thing is that understand there's no secret sauce, there's no magic pill (6:49)It's a process and it's a process of education, it's a process of experience but it's not difficult. (06:58)it's just a matter of committing Risk taking in BusinessYou don't have to have it all figured out to start a business. Oftentimes you don't have anything but risk. Here's how Kim started from nothing: (7:41)I started with nothing and I'm gonna tell you that the best thing of all is that I didn't have the money, Robert and I did not have the money. (8:10)Probably for the first 10-12 real estate deals I did, I did not have the money now what that forces you to do is get very very very creative For Kim, she chose real estate as an avenue to invest:(8:22)Once you see the property or whatever investment it is you're interested in. Once you see it , and touch it and feel it then put your mind to work on how can I now get the money, how can I create the money in order to get the investment.(9:54)What you want to do is create positive cash flow. My investment of choice is real estate there's many other ways to gather cash flow whatever works for you.(10:05)But we had 10 thousand dollars a month cash flow from our rental properties. But we only had 3 thousand dollars a month in living expenses. So at that point $10,000 coming in and $3,000 going out we were financially free. Achieving financial freedomFinancial freedom may seem difficult at first but it is not impossible. As Kim ventured into Real Estate this is what they experienced: (10:39)Number 1 I did not have to worry about money anymore and number 2 it gave me the luxury to ask myself what I really want to do with my life. So it's all about financial freedom. (10:50)It's about freedom, not so much about the money but freedom is that having choices to live the life you want to live. That's what it's about.Filling up the gap in your cash flowThere's no one way to fill the gap, but the key is education and being fearless. Here is Kim's encouragement:(11:57)I made a ton of mistakes, a ton. I mean that's the key to success, I'm gonna tell you right now, that the key to success is making mistakes everybody is still afraid of making a mistake, the only way we learn is by making a mistake. (12:24)The key is you gotta got into action I will always say get some education get some education get some financial education on the asset class you like and then once you have some education start very small take baby steps put a little money down because as soon as you put so many down my interest goes way up. (12:57)One thing I recommend for women especially is to go out and buy a 1 ounce silver coin. it's been across 20 dollars US today. But what that does because you know got this asset this gold or silver coin all of the sudden your interest will go up will look at the prices of silver every single day, what's it doing. Why is it up, why is it down? And because you've just parted with 20 dollars US you become this quasi expert on silver. (13:31)I'm a big believer in you've gotta put some money down, get into the game and then that's where the real learning happens. You gotta go out and do the real thing. Raising kids and being married while building your wealthYour family, most importantly your kids should not be a reason for you not to seek for financial stability. Although Kim and Robert don't have kids, she shared a very good example here: (14:09)Robert and I do not have kids, really by choice.(14:19)But my girlfriends for example Lisa Lannon, she's a Rich Dad advisor, she and her husband Josh, they have very successful businesses they have 2 kids they involve their kids in their business, they involve their kids in their investing so when they go out and lock at a property they bring the children along so they educate the kids as well as educate themselves. So for women, especially with the internet there's so much opportunity offer in the internet for business and things like that I think the parent of course can be the best teacher. So why not include the kids. It amazes me how young kids get interested in money. They know about money. When their very very young. So why not educate them while your educating yourself. (15:14)I don't think it has to be one or the other. I think you can do it together.(15:21)and same with the relationship same with couples I'm not advocating for the woman to go out there she's married and she has a life partner then she goes out there and do this all by herself and separate from her spouse this is ideally investing it's something you want to do together as a couple because you grow together you learn together. Invest in yourselfBeing a woman is not an excuse to remain financially dependent on someone else. Be encouraged with Kim's words: (20:00)Most important investment is to invest in yourself and to invest in your education. And for me, it's about your financial education. (20:12)At some point you gotta put yourself first. As a woman we tend to put everybody else first, we put our husbands, our family, our kids, everybody else first . There comes a time you gotta say “hey! I gotta put myself first” (21:05)Oftentimes, too many of us women find ourselves in a financial crisis and they're not educated about money. They have no idea. (21:27)Especially if you are a mom, I think you owe it to yourself to get financially educated to take care of your kids in case something happens. (21:53)When people say “I'll try to get there” “I'll try to be there” “I'll try to make it” If you're saying I'll try, you're already saying “I'm not gonna do it” . Cause try doesn't even exist. (22:22)So just be honest with yourself The secret of SuccessThere's no such thing as a secret to success, according to Kim it's all about personal development and letting go of fear: (28:07)Well there's really no secret except we work on ourselves we work on this because this is what holds us back the fear the doubt the all of the things that get in our way that's what holds us back from success. (28:29)For somebody who is just starting out. If you're just starting out in investment, in real estate, in a business, it's scary because it's an unknown. You haven't done this before we got this horrible fear of making mistakes. So when we come up against obstacles and things like that oftentimes this is the biggest obstacle. So if we can keep clearing our thoughts, our beliefs, our ideas especially around money, that can free us up to move forward with a lot of energy.Women EmpowermentThis is the perfect moment for women to stand out and stand up. Gone are the days of taking the back seat. Here is Kim's call to all women:(38:11)For women right now I'm saying women we need to go for it the world is really messed up right now it's messed up financially, economically, morally, ethically and I think it's up to the women to turn things around because we deal with different energy, we deal with different spirit we bring a whole different personality to the world. 38:42-39:05 Right now it's up to women to stand up to start being role models start being leaders in their families in their communities in their cities in their countries and that's more why I speak or why I educate it's not just about you getting financial security it's really about women stepping up in taking leadership roles and really changing the world. Transformation Financial situations that hinder us from being secure can only be changed with real transformation. Here is Kim's explanation based on Neuroscience: (39:51)If you're in that situation you gotta ask yourself if I keep doing what I'm doing every single day am I gonna get the outcome I want?(40:10) If they keep doing what they're doing is that gonna change that situation or not and if it's not then they have to ask themselves what do I need to do in order to change it? So, for real change to happen, real transformation to happen it's a four step project, a four step process. One, you gotta get information. Two, you gotta take action so if somebody's in that situation and they're not doing anything different nothing's gonna change so you got to take action that's different. the 3rd step is what's called feedback so for every action we take, every single action we take there's feedback.(41:28)The fourth step is called incubation where you take time being yourself and really incorporate what you've learned into your body of knowledge. Key Takeaways : Have a proper allocation of your scarce resources to satisfy needs and wants Educate yourself first before anything else. Change your money mindset. Make it your goal to be financially secured. Don't be afraid to take risks and invest.

OK, so we have Kim in the house. Kim, once again, welcome. Thank you.[00:02:13]Speaker 3: Thank you, Genecia. Thank you for having me. I can't wait to see you in Singapore.[00:02:18]Speaker 2: Yes. So when are you going to come to Singapore? I know you're going to be in Singapore earlier.[00:02:25]Speaker 3: Yes. So there's the big masters of the century. The name of that event, I'll be there for that 23rd, 24th. And then we are doing our Rich Woman event for two days with my team of women. We're dear girlfriends, entrepreneurs, investors, we travel the world, and we do not do this event very often, very rarely, actually. But Veronica and Richard best resources, they've been so good to us. So we're really, really excited to come to Singapore and to meet the women of Singapore. I know Singapore very well, and I know the women of Singapore and Asia are our house, and it's time for the women to step up because the world needs strong women leaders right now, and that's one of the reasons that we're coming and we're teaching and we're educating.[00:03:23]Speaker 2: What made you wanted to write this book, Rich Woman? I mean, like, I've read it, I love it so much. I educated myself, so, I mean, like, you have started at such an early age, and then you put this whole piece together, and it's for us. So why do you do it? At the beginning?[00:03:44]Speaker 3: Yeah. The reason Genecia, I wrote Rich Woman was because Robert and I would travel the world teaching the Rich Dad philosophy, speaking to big groups, and I would get up on stage and I would speak to the women for just a few minutes. And at every event, whether it was Singapore or London, Tokyo, Johannesburg, wherever it was, at the end of the event, I'd always be surrounded by women. And they had the same questions and the same issues. And the biggest thing I realized is there's a huge, huge, huge demand for women to be educated about money. And actually, we women, not only have we not been expected to know much about money, but we've actually been taught to depend upon somebody else for our financial well-being be it a husband, family member, government. We've actually been taught not to take, not to not to take care of ourselves financially, but to be dependent on somebody else. So that puts us often in dire straits. My whole message is we need to be in control of our own finances. We need to step up and be financially literate. And ideally, it's up to each one of us to be financially secure and financially, nobody's going to do that for us.[00:05:08]Speaker 3: No financial advisor, no financial planner, and it's not rocket science. Anybody can do it. But it takes time when it takes education.[00:05:17]Speaker 2: I think one of the big pieces is when you said, anybody can do it, anyone can do it, it feels like a hurdle because a lot of us in our education system, we are taught that to go this way or when we were supposed to go to the left, if we go to the right. If teachers say go to the right, we'll go to the right. So we're kind of like, boxed up in this system where we are not taught financial literacy at a very young age in our generation. And how can we do more now that you're saying that anybody can do? How can we cross this hurdle in our minds that we can actually do it?[00:05:53]Speaker 3: Yeah, well, when you say minds, when you say mind Genecia, that's the biggest part of it. Number one is our thoughts and our beliefs rule everything. So if our thoughts and beliefs are, I don't know anything about money, I'm not good with numbers, somebody else will take care of me, then that's a recipe for disaster. So actually starting to take control of your finances starts very simple. We start small. We take baby steps. We don't go for the big deals. We stay with the small deals. The most important thing is that understand, there's no cost, there's no magic pill, there's no real. Everybody wants the fast answer. Give me the answer. Give me the secret. There's not, it's a process, and it's a process of education. It's a process of experience. But it's not difficult. It's just a matter of committing to wanting to have what money really is. It's about freedom. It's about having choices. And too many of us women find ourselves in dire financial strength as we get older due to death of a spouse, divorce, bad money management. So too many of us women find ourselves in a financial crisis, and that does not have to happen.[00:07:21]Speaker 3: So it is not difficult, but it does take time. You got to commit to it and you've got to put in the effort.[00:07:31]Speaker 2: So what is the minimum amount that any woman can start to build her financial future?[00:07:38]Speaker 3: Well, I started with nothing. I started with nothing. And I'm going to tell you, probably the best thing of all is that I did not have the money. Robert and I did not have the money. So, for example, our very first investment, my very first investment was a little two bedroom, one bath house in a place called Portland, Oregon. It was $45,000. I needed $5,000 down $5,000. Did not have it. But here's the beauty of it. Probably for the first ten to twelve real estate deals, I did, I did not have the money. And what that forces you to do is get very, very creative. So once you see the property, or whatever investment it is you're interested in, once you see it and touch it and feel it, then it puts your mind to work on, how can I now get the money? How can I create the money in order to get the investment? And that's probably one of the biggest things. So when people say, when I get the money, I'll invest, chances are when I have extra money, then I'll start investing. Chances are we're always so busy, we always have something that takes up our money.[00:08:56]Speaker 3: I always say, find the investment first, then the money moves up. Figure out how to get the money.[00:09:03]Speaker 2: I remember watching one of the interviews, in fact, in a recent one that you did when you were in London, you talk about achieving financially free is so simple. You spoke about the concept of keeping your expenses low while the money that you bring in just higher than whatever you're spending. And that difference in itself is financial freedom. Tell us more about this mind boggling concept, because people think that having financial freedom is multimillions of dollars.[00:09:35]Speaker 3: Yes, exactly. In 1984, Robert and I were financially free, and exactly as you say, everybody thought, oh, you must have millions of dollars set aside in savings that you're going to live off of. No, that was not the case. And our formula is very simple. What you want to do is create positive cash flow. My investment of choice is real estate. There's many other ways to gather cash flow, whatever works for you. But we had $10,000 a month cash flow from our rental properties, but we only had $3,000 a month in living expenses. So at that point, 10,000 coming in, 3000 going out. We were financially free. And the most beautiful thing about that is that for the first time, I didn't have to worry about money, which was huge. We all worry about money. How do we pay our bills? How are we going to make this payment? How are we going to do the next thing we want to do financially? Number one, I did not have to worry about money anymore. And number two, it gave me the luxury to ask myself, what do I really want to do with my life? So it's all about financial freedom.[00:10:49]Speaker 3: It's about freedom. It's not so much about the money. It's about freedom. It's about having choices to live the life you want to live. That's what it's about. And then every single real estate investor, successful real estate investor that I know are small, work through their process. And today, because of that, that's what makes them successful. And so I'm very straightforward. I'm very forthright on what it's going to take, the reality of what it's going to take any woman if I can do it, I didn't know anything about money. I didn't know anything about investing. I didn't know anything about real estate. So if I can do it, you can do it too.[00:11:31]Speaker 2: But there must be a gap that you filled up, right? I mean, the time when you understood your expenses are low and having more cash flow to that point of zero, to that point of acceleration, what was it that filled the gap for you and Robert?[00:11:46]Speaker 3: When you say fill the gap, meaning.[00:11:49]Speaker 2: How do you have that awareness to know that, okay, I need to do this, I need to do this, I need to do this?[00:11:54]Speaker 3: Oh, I made a ton of mistakes. A ton of mistakes. A ton. That's the key to success. I'm going to tell you right now that's the key to success is making mistakes. Everybody is so afraid of making a mistake. The only way we learn is by making a mistake. So Robert started to explain to me what his Rich Dad taught him about real estate. And he's like, okay, so go buy something. Go figure it out. I'm like, I don't know how to figure this out. I just went bumbling and stumbling along. But the key is you've got to get into action. So I always say, get some education, get some education. Get some financial education on the asset class you like, there's four asset classes, the asset class you like. And then once you have some education, start very small. Take baby steps, put a little money down. Because as soon as I put some money down, my interest goes way up. Way up. If I put $100 onto something, I'm going to be interested in what that's going to do. So, for example, today, one thing I recommend for women especially, is go out and buy a 1oz silver coin.[00:13:02]Speaker 3: It's going to cost about $20 US today. But what that does is because you've now got this asset or this gold silver coin, all of a sudden your interest will go up. You'll look at the price of silver every single day. What's it doing? Why is it up, why is it down? And because you've just started with $20, you become this quasi-expert on silver. I'm a big believer, and you've got to put some money down, get into the game, and then that's where the real learning happens. You got to go out and do the real thing.[00:13:41]Speaker 2: I love that is where your treasure is. That's where your heart will be. Now, how can a woman with kids, a lot of them are asking, they have kids, they have work all at the same time. You're saying they have bills of pain thinking about education also, I can't do this. So how do you advise them to strike a balance between raising kids and building their wealth?[00:14:07]Speaker 3: Right? That's a great question. Robert and I do not have kids purely by choice. I have one kid called Robert. That's enough for me. That all I can handle. But my girlfriend, for example, Lisa Lannon, she's a rich dad advisor. She and her husband Josh teach. They have very successful businesses. They have two kids. They involve their kids in their business, they involve their kids in their investing. So when they go out and look at a property, they bring their children along. So they educate the kids as well as educate themselves. So for women, especially with the Internet, there's so much opportunity out there on the Internet for business and things like that. I think the parent, of course, is going to be the best teacher. So why not include the kids? It amazes me how young kids get interested in money. I mean, they know about money when they're very, very young, so why not educate them while you're educating yourself? I don't think it has to be one or the other. I think you can do it together. Yeah, and same with relationships, same with couples. I'm not advocating that a woman go out there, she's married and she has a life partner, that you go out there and do this all by herself and separate from her spouse.[00:15:30]Speaker 3: This is ideally, investing is something that you want to do together as a couple, because you grow together, you learn together. I do not understand why people you work so hard for your money. We work every single day for the paycheck, or if you're a business owner for that revenue. You work so hard for it, why would you turn it over to somebody else who you hope and pray is going to do a good job with it. Nobody is going to take care of your money better than you. And the most important thing I think someone can do is be aware, get educated and invest their money themselves and be responsible for your finances.[00:16:19]Speaker 2: That's right. And if you have not signed up for our Rich Women event happening on the 26th and 27 October, do remember to stay tuned to the end because we've got a really special gift for you where you can get a really special, I would say, discount. Okay? So do remember to stay tuned till the end. All right? Very, very important. Now, I'm very curious. You mentioned about your partnership with Robert and your relationship, right. And this is a question that always asks power couples. Okay. And how do you consistently, we talk about power struggle. How do you consistently work together hand in hand? You know, what it's like two relationship advice or three tips you would give any woman who probably have some kind of thing going on, but how can they manage it better, just like you?[00:17:19]Speaker 3: Well, I don't do it perfectly by any means. Robert and I being married is not the easiest thing either. You're always working on it to keep growing and to keep growing. So to be married and to be business partners is not for everybody. Absolutely not for everybody. It works for us. But the one thing I found is that we have very different roles. So Robert was always his story. He's the visionary. I love the business, and I never, ever expected to be on stage doing the whole Rich Woman thing. I love business. Even today, we have totally reinvented our company over the last few months. So I was not actively involved for the last few years. Today, I am the CEO and President. I am in there every single day running the company with our team. But I love the business. And Robert is the author. He's the big picture. So that works really well for us. Not in fact, the only arguments we have are about the business. We don't have arguments personally. We have arguments about the business because we're very passionate about our business. It is our baby. Our mission from day one in 1996 has always been to elevate the financial well-being of humanity.[00:18:46]Speaker 3: We live that. We breathe that with the company. Today, we're getting back to our roots of what that's about. We're building, bringing out the cash flow clubs. Our first product. Our first product, Genecia, was the cash flow board game. And that's near and dear to our hearts because that's where people can teach people. So Robert and I don't have to be going all over the world teaching people can teach each other through this cash flow board game. So in terms of how we work with a couple, I don't have three tips. It's always a dance. It's always a dance. And you've got to allow each other to bring their talents and their gifts to the table, and that's what works best for us.[00:19:33]Speaker 2: Many women tell me that, oh, Genecia, I can't come for the Rich Woman event. I'm too busy taking care of my kids. Oh, I need to ask my husband about the investment I'm about to make. Why would you say to these women with so many things, to consult someone else?[00:19:52]Speaker 3: Yeah, okay. I think the most important investment anybody can make, men or woman, the most important investment is to invest in yourself and to invest in your education. And for me, it's about your financial education. So to think that at some point you've got to put yourself first as a woman, we tend to put everybody else first. We put our husbands, our family, our kids, everybody else first. There comes a time where you got to say, hey, I got to put myself first. It's like when you get on an airplane and they say, in case of emergency, put your oxygen mask on first before helping others. Right? Right. So I think women have got to start putting on their oxygen mask first, start taking care of themselves. And to say, I can't come because of my husband or my kids, it's just an excuse. It is just an excuse. Either you want to do it or you don't. If you don't want to do it, just say, I don't want to do it. Don't say it's because of my kids. Don't use the excuse. There are so many excuses out there. So you got to decide for yourself what's most important to you in your life.[00:21:04]Speaker 3: And as I said, oftentimes too many of us women find ourselves in a financial crisis, and they're not educated about money. They have no idea. Let's say the husband passes away. She has no idea where the money is, what they've got, where it is. Mr. and Mrs. Helper, come along. I'll take care of you. And next thing you know, she's broken. Especially if you're a mom. I think you owe it to yourself to get financially educated, to take care of you and your kids in case something happens.[00:21:36]Speaker 2: Wow, that's really a golden nugget, ladies. Delete all your excuses and bring on that action. It's either a yes or yes. There's no other way.[00:21:47]Speaker 3: For example, I'll give you one thing that I've learned over the years, is that when people say, I'll try to get there, I'll try to be there, I'll try to make it. If you're saying I try, you've already said I'm not going to do it because try doesn't even exist. Trying to pick up this pen. When I pick up note you picked up the pen. Try to pick it up. I picked it up trying to not even exist. So as soon as somebody says, I'll try to be there, I'll think about it. It's just an excuse so just be honest with yourself whether we want to do it and invest in ourselves. So what are the three investment avenues, other than herself, that a woman can look into to start building her first steps to wealth?[00:22:39]Speaker 3: Well, Genecia, there's four asset classes, and Warren Buffett says there's many ways to financial heaven, and you've got to find a way that's right for you. So the four asset classes, one is business, investing in other businesses, building your own business. There's real estate, which is my investment of choice. I love real estate. I understand it. It works for me. There's paper assets like stocks, funds, mutual funds. And there's commodities. Commodities, Gold, silver, copper, soybeans, coffee. Those are all commodities. So you've got to find the investment, the asset class that sings to you and it will it will speak to you. So, for example, I knew early on that real estate, it's fun to me. It's a fun game. I enjoy it. I understand it. My girlfriend, who was an accountant, loved trading. She loved day trading. She loved trading what's called options, stock options. She was very good at it because that's the way her mind works. So don't go along just with what I say. Just because I do real estate, that doesn't mean that might be the best thing for you. But my two investment choices are business and real estate. I tried stocks.[00:24:03]Speaker 3: I've taken classes in stocks. I have studied the stock options, things like that. It doesn't fit with my personality. So you've got to find the one that's right for you. And then the other key is there's two things that investors invest for. One is capital gains. Capital gains is you buy a stock at $20, it goes to $50. You sell it, and your profit is called capital gains. If you buy a house for $100,000, put a little money into it, sell it for $150,000, your profit is called capital gains. You must sell an asset in order to realize capital gains, you have to sell. The other thing investors invest for is cash flow. I am the queen of cash flow. I love cash flow. So cash flow is where, like in paper, in stocks, maybe every twice a year, once a quarter, you get a dividend check on your stock. That dividend is cash flow because you're putting money in, it's working for you. It's giving you a return cash flow. You buy a rental property every month. You collect the rent, you pay the mortgage, you pay the expenses. If you've managed the property well, at the end of the month, you have a positive cash flow.[00:25:23]Speaker 3: So I am all about cash flow, because once you buy an asset and it's giving you cash flow every month, eventually you keep accumulating more and more assets that are giving you cash flow that's flowing into your income column. At some point, your income from your cash flow will replace the job salary paycheck that you're getting. And at that point, you're financially free. That's what I'm about. Money has the power, especially for women, to enslave you or to set you free. Too many women marry for money, are in bad relationships, because they're afraid they can't make it on their own financially. They are in jobs they hate because they need the paycheck. So I am not about having money in slavery. I am all about money setting you free.[00:26:21]Speaker 2: Wow. This is a very important statement. It's all about having the money that allows you to set you free, right?[00:26:28]Speaker 3: Yes, free. You want to live the life, you want to do what it is you really want to do with your life. We all have a gift, we all have a talent. Often times it's covered up because we have to work for money. We have to kind of sell our souls for money. So what if you had the financial freedom where you didn't have to do that anymore, where you could just live your life true to who you are at this point?[00:26:52]Speaker 2: So what will you be sharing with our audience, our women, this coming October? What exactly will you be covering into? How we're going to discover our personality types to work in the different asset areas, or we're going to learn more than that. Tell us more.[00:27:09]Speaker 3: Well, there's a lot we're going to cover in two days. And I have my three girlfriends again, entrepreneurs, so, Lisa Lannon, Steel Stanford, Ronny Jaggers, entrepreneurs, investors, very, very successful. We teach as a team. A lot of fun. And we're going to cover really three areas. So we're going to cover financial development, financial education, financial development. We're going to talk about investments. You're actually going to analyze some investments. We're going to talk about business development, entrepreneurship, building a business, investing in a business. We're going to analyze a business. But the real key to all of this is personal development, because you are the foundation of everything successful in your life. And for me and for Robert, people often ask, what's your secret to success? What's your secret? Well, there's really no secret except we work on ourselves, we work on this because this is what holds us back. The fear, the doubt, all of the things that get in our way, that's what holds us back from success. So the more we can clear this and work on this and work on us, the more we broke. So for somebody who's just starting out, if you're just starting out in investments, in real estate, in a business, it's scary because it's an unknown.[00:28:39]Speaker 3: We haven't done this before. We've got this horrible fear of making mistakes. So when we come up against obstacles and things like that, oftentimes this is the biggest obstacle. So if we can keep clearing our thoughts, our beliefs, our ideas, especially around money, that can free us up to move forward and have a lot more energy.[00:29:00]Speaker 2: Wow, I love that. Now, for those of you who just joined us, we just want to acknowledge you right now, with as many of you here in the room, we just want to acknowledge you. We know that you could be doing something else. So we are doing everything in our power to make it well worth your time. All right, so after the end of this webinar, the webinar replay will be posted on Success Resources Facebook page. So not to worry if you missed the front part. So it'd be available on the Success Resources Facebook page. And also, at the end of the webinar, we will be sharing with you a gift. Okay, last but not least, you get to ask questions. And we have already more than ten questions sitting on my table that were already pregiven to us and so one whole list. So the team has really filtered some of those important ones that desperately want them to be answered. So, Kim, one of the questions that came in during the Q and A actually asked how to start a real estate business with limited resources. So that's one of the questions that the participants have given us. What would you say about that?[00:30:14]Speaker 3: A lot of people say that they all think it takes money to make money. I'm here to tell you, it doesn't take money to make money. I'm a walking example of it. As I said earlier, my first, probably ten investments, I did not have the money. And what the number one excuse people use is, I don't have money, so I can't invest. I would say, number one, start getting educated on whatever it is that interests you. Whether it's real estate, whether it's business, whether it's stocks, bonds, options, whatever it is, start getting educated, because then you'll start to see things differently. And the second thing is, go find an investment. Whether you have money or not, go find one. Just go start looking. Start small. I always say, get some education. Take baby steps. Start small. Go buy a share of stock that can cost you like, $10. That's easy. But don't overthink it. Just get into some action. Get some education. Start small. Go buy that silver, 1oz silver coin. Go buy a share of stock online. There's so much opportunity online for you to create assets online. But I would start there. I would start there.[00:31:37]Speaker 3: Just start. Don't think about it so much. We get into analysis, paralysis. And they all want the formula first. Just start. Just start. There's two things you can invest. You can invest time and you can invest money. So before you start investing your money, invest the time in your education and your investment education. Do that first, then invest a little bit of money.[00:32:03]Speaker 2: A little bit.[00:32:05]Speaker 3: A little bit. Because you're going to make mistakes. Okay, I'm going to say one more thing, Genecia.[00:32:09]Speaker 2: Yes.[00:32:11]Speaker 3: So we all go to school, especially in Singapore. School is very important. We're all taught to go to the right school, you got to get the education. All this, let me tell you that what they teach you in school is opposite of what it takes to be successful in real life. So, for example, number one, in school, they say, don't make a mistake. They punish you, right, for making a mistake. They give you an F. They give you a red mark. They humiliate you in front of people. Okay? So people come out of school scared to death of making a mistake. The only way we learn is by making a mistake. A mistake only shows you something that you didn't know. So you make the mistake, and you get the lesson instead of going, oh, my God, I made a mistake, and you beat yourself up. What's the lesson? Where is it? What's the learning in that mistake? When we get smarter, then we can move forward. So number one, they teach you not to make mistakes. Number two, school teaches you to do it on your own in real life. If you do it on your own, you're only going to go so far.[00:33:13]Speaker 3: You need a team. You need people around to support. You need the team for investing. You need the team for business in order to grow and build it. And the third thing that a school says is, there's only one right answer. Well, no, there's a lot of right answers to the same problem. There's a lot of right answers to one problem. There's not one right answer. And we're trained to look for the one right answer. Give me the one right answer. Everybody says, how do I get successful? Give me the answer. No, there's no one right answer. There's a lot of answers. So a lot of it is deprogramming our mind. What we were taught in school, school actually can hinder our success from what it takes to be successful in our life.[00:34:00]Speaker 2: Wow, that's very good advice. One of the other questions is what are your go to time management strategies? I mean, you're so busy about business managing so many things. How do you do that?[00:34:14]Speaker 3: I have no idea. There's different personality types. My personality type is called a quick start. I go to solution very quickly. I go to action very quickly. And sometimes that's a plus, and sometimes that's a minus. But I just know that I know the most important things I need to handle, and I do my best to handle those first in the day.[00:34:46]Speaker 2: Do you intuitively know what exactly you have to handle, or do you, like, have a priority list that you do or something?[00:34:55]Speaker 3: Oh, that's a good question. As I've gotten older, and maybe because of more experience and more knowledge, my intuition does kick in stronger. And I don't have to do lists. I don't do well with them. But I have maybe five things, like, every day, maybe five things that I have to do. And here's the thing that has worked for me. Oftentimes there are things that are uncomfortable that I don't want to do. Like, you got to make that phone call and tell somebody that you're not going to do business with them or there's an upset and you need to confront it. So what I've learned is I've gotten pretty good at confronting the things that make me uncomfortable. Wow. Well, I would say this in all aspects of life, and this comes if you want to build your business, if you want to start investing, if you have a hard, you've got to start getting comfortable being uncomfortable. You've got to do those things that are going to stretch you. If you want to be successful, you've got to get out of your comfort zone. If you keep doing the same thing day in and day out and day in and day out and not stretch yourself and not get out of your comfort zone, you're never going to grow.[00:36:17]Speaker 3: So my fitness coach says, you got to get comfortable being uncomfortable. And he gives me the hard exercise, and I'm like, I really don't want to do that. I really don't want to run up those stairs 20 times. He goes, well, then just stay comfortable and stay where you're at.[00:36:36]Speaker 2: Wow. Yeah, I love that. And how do you know I just want to add one more question to this. How do you know exactly when you are in the comfort zone so that you can activate the other part of you and say, hey, it's time to get out and get moving?[00:36:53]Speaker 3: Yeah, well, because you feel it inside. Like, let's say there's a phone call you need to make and it's going to be uncomfortable. You know, your body will tell you because it'll feel like this angst and you might be a little scary. It might feel like little goosebumps and all of that stuff. You know, when there's something that you need to do, that's going to take a little more effort and either you're going to do it or you're not. So, for example, on my very first real estate property, my little two bedroom, one bath house, I was scared to death. What if I make a mistake? What if the tenant moves out? What if I lose money? What if, what if, what if, what if I was scared to death? And there came a time where I went, okay, I'm either going to do this deal or I'm not. And I knew if I did it, there was going to be a big learning curve and it was going to make me very uncomfortable, but I was going to learn something. And if I didn't do it, I wasn't going to learn anything. So you know in your heart, whether you're backing off or whether you're pushing forward, you know, and you know when you wimp out and you know when you go for it.[00:38:09]Speaker 3: Right now, for women right now, I'm saying women, we need to go for it. We need to go for it. The world is really messed up right now. It's messed up financially, economically, morally, ethically, and I think it's up to the women to turn things around, because we bring a different energy, we bring a different spirit, we bring a whole different personality to the world. And too many of us have been sitting in the background letting everybody else, letting our spouse and everybody else do stuff. Right now, it's up to women to stand up, start being role models, start being leaders in their families and their communities, in their cities, in their countries. And that's more why I speak and why I educate. It's not just about you getting financially secure. It's really about women stepping up and taking a leadership role and really changing the world, really making a difference in the world. It's about making a difference in the world.[00:39:09]Speaker 2: Wow. Two more questions. How to recover from paycheck to paycheck situation when you have too many obligations? How to recover from paycheck to paycheck situation when you have too many obligations?[00:39:28]Speaker 3: So I'm assuming they're talking about financial obligations.[00:39:32]Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so.[00:39:33]Speaker 3: Financial obligations. Okay, so this comes from neuroscience. I've studied neuroscience lately and how real change and real transformation happens. So if you're in that situation, you got to ask yourself, if I keep doing what I'm doing every single day, am I going to get the outcome I want? So if somebody is living paycheck to paycheck and they've got all these obligations, if they keep doing what they're doing, is it going to change that situation or not? And if it's not, then they got to ask themselves, what do I need to do in order to change it? So for real change to happen, real transformation to happen, it's a four step project, a four step process. One, you got to get information. Two, you got to take action. So if somebody's in that situation and they're not doing anything different, nothing's going to change. So you got to take action. That's different. The third step is what's called feedback. So for every action we take, every single action we take, there's feedback. So if I shake your hand and you shake my hand back, that feedback. If you touch your finger to a hot stove and it burns, that's feedback.[00:41:00]Speaker 3: Too often we have all this feedback coming to us. That is gems. They're gems. They are like, the best information, but we're ignoring it. We're not aware of it, we're not paying attention to it, so we don't learn from it. And then the fourth is when you get that feedback, let's say you're launching a new product and nobody buys it, sales or zero, that's feedback. So then you got to take that feedback, what you've learned. And the fourth step is called incubation, where you take time to yourself and really incorporate what you've learned into your body of knowledge. So if somebody is living paycheck to paycheck and struggling, they got to ask themselves, is what I'm doing if I keep doing this every single day? Is it going to change. And if not, then they got to start looking for new answers. They want to be comfortable and it's the killer. It's the killer. If you just want to be comfortable, then just know that as long as you want to be comfortable, nothing's going to change and you're not going to try to get the outcome.[00:42:15]Speaker 2: For people to be from moving to them, from unconscious competence to conscious competence, would probably take the Rich Woman education. You must invest in yourself so that you can up level your financial knowledge and really your financial education. Here at Rich Woman. [00:42:40]Speaker 3: Most women, they love to spend money. We love to shop, we love to spend money, right? So at the two day seminar, we're just going to talk about how to spend money differently, how to spend it, what to spend it on, instead of spending it on shoes and handbags and all that good clothes and all of that stuff. We're going to talk about how to spend your money so that it makes you money and it makes you financially free. Again, it's not rocket science. It's just rethinking changing your mindset to think a different way, to see things differently. For example, everybody's talking about a big crash that's coming. There's probably a global economic crash that's going to happen. Well, if that happens, especially, let's say for real estate, when a real estate crash happens, that's the best opportunity to buy your investments that are going to make you a lot of money. It's just like when clothes go on. When the store has a big clothing sale, we all go in and buy because it's cheap. Well, when there's a real estate crash, it's cheap. You go in and buy. But unless you know what to look for, unless you know a good deal from a bad deal, you're going to miss the opportunity.[00:43:53]Speaker 3: So right now at our event, we're going to talk about how do you find a good deal versus a bad deal? How do you spot a good business from a bad business so you know what to look for as you're looking into your future.[00:44:09]Speaker 2: Wow, this is really exciting. We will know exactly what to look for.[00:44:16]Speaker 3: They don't know what questions to ask. They don't know what to look for. So probably the best way to say it is these two days, we're going to open your eyes for that.[00:44:24]Speaker 2: Wow, this is really awesome. So I'm really very excited. And the last question is, what's your greatest attribute to your success?[00:44:38]Speaker 3: The greatest attribute to my success? I never stopped learning. There we go. I never stopped learning. And I work on this and I work on my personal growth. I'm always looking at my beliefs, my thoughts. I mean, if one thing, if you took nothing away from this webinar right now, one thing, be aware of your thoughts. Just every once in a while, listen to your thoughts. Listen to your belief? Because I catch myself all the time, every day with this negative thought, this negative belief, and I stop myself and I catch myself, and I go, okay, so is that serving me or not? If we can start to be more aware about what our thoughts are, what our beliefs are, what we're saying to ourselves, what we're saying to other people, that's huge. And we talk about one of the keys to my successes that would be one of the keys to my successes is being aware of all that selftalk and that self chatter and that little voice in your head, as the singer would say.[00:45:43]Speaker 2: Do you have a favorite quote that keeps you motivated or keeps you going? Kim.[00:45:54]Speaker 3: There's a quote by I think it was Emerson. I think it was Emerson. He said, Nothing happens until something moves. Nothing happens until something moves. And to me, that says, if you're not in motion and you're not moving, nothing's going to happen. So I like to set goals for myself that I don't know if I can accomplish them. And then what I do is so, for example, with the book Rich Woman yes. I set a deadline on when the book we set a deadline on when the book was going to launch, and then everything from there went backwards. And so I said, okay, I agree to that. That means I got to get the book written by this time. I got to get this done. I got to get this done. And I also have people around me who are counting on me to deliver. So that's one of my keys for a goal. I set a goal, I set a deadline, and then I have people that are counting on me, so I don't want to let them know.[00:46:58]Speaker 2: Wow. So it's not just your own responsibility, but also your responsibility to others.[00:47:04]Speaker 3: Yes. And in order to be successful, you've got to have a good team of people. And the most number one factor for me and I learned this the hard way is I only want to be around people and deal with people who I trust, and that's huge. So, for example, Richard and Veronica success resources. We've known each other for 22 years. I trust them explicitly, but I only want to deal with people I trust. Too many people are only in it for the money. So if your goal we talk about goals. If your goal is to make money, if that's the goal, if you're starting a business and the goal of your business is to make money, chances are you're not going to make it because that goal is not strong enough. When you hit the obstacles, when you have the setbacks, when you have the negative responses, when you have all of the problems that will come from being a business owner, if your whole goal is just to make money not strong enough, you've got to have a real strong reason why you're in business. What's your purpose? What's the bigger picture? What is it for you that's going to keep you going through that adversity?[00:48:17]Speaker 3: That's key?[00:48:19]Speaker 2: Wow. So much. Thank you. Kim, thanks so much for sharing with us so much of your wisdom today. I really enjoyed it. I really enjoyed the conversation with you. And I really look forward to seeing you here in Singapore as well.[00:48:35]Speaker 3: I love Singapore. It's such a great spot, and the people there are fabulous. We always have a good time. And the reason we do a women only event is because we want to create a very safe, sacred place where women can share and be open and maybe talk about things that other times I wouldn't talk about. So it becomes a very intimate environment and very powerful, too.[00:49:00]Speaker 2: Do take action. Wait no further. Because you need to step out of your comfort zone and go invest in your financial future. Be a Rich Woman.[00:49:13]Speaker 3: It's time for you to invest in yourself.[00:49:15]Speaker 2: Yes.

Doing Divorce Different A Podcast Guide to Doing Divorce Differently
In today's episode, we are talking to Love Doctor Duana Welch. Duana is an author and love coach who helps women find love the love of their life. Using her experience of finding love after divorce, she tells us how to get out there and find love again. Duana talks about the ten steps she has created to find a beautiful and solid relationship, also available in her book. It can feel intimidating to start dating and putting yourself out there again, but tune in to this episode for some great tips! In this episode: [1:19] What led Duana Welch to her Love Doctor role? [2:34] Duana gives us advice on how to start dating post-divorce. [7:48[ Duana talks about taking action to get out there, and their mindset will change as a result. [9:30] Duana takes us through the steps of her program to begin finding your match. [21:28] What should your ad look like on a dating app? Key Takeaways: Have the courage to look for someone. Put yourself into the dating market. Most people don't even look. Love is for those who have the courage to date. Create a list of everything you want in a partner, but be realistic. Do you have the same qualities that you are looking for in a partner? Sign up for one month only on dating apps. This tells the algorithm to keep pushing you to try and get you to sign up for another month. If you sign up for multiple, they won't keep pushing your profile after the first month. Quotes: “Who we love and how successful that relationship is, has more impact on our health, our wealth, our longevity, our career success, our life satisfaction, and even our sex life than any other choice we will make.” - Duana Welch “The first action I want people to take is to write down everything they want in a partner. Everything.” - Duana Welch Guest Bio: Dr. Duana Welch (pronounced DWAY-nah) is known for dating advice, dating coaching, online dating coaching, relationship advice, relationship coaching, and marriage coaching that relies on science rather than opinion to help men and women find and keep the love of their lives.

We're revisiting episodes 303 and 305 with Ruben Gonzalez and John C. Morley. Denis asks our guests who their favorite leader is and what the one question is that they would ask over coffee. We tackle the downsides of how today's leaders are too concerned about being ‘liked' that they avoid hard conversations and the importance of never giving up after a setback. Tune in! In this episode: Ruben shares why Nelson Mandela, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and Mahatma Gandhi are his favorite leaders and what is one question he would ask them. How today's society has become so afraid of truth and toughness that people have begun walking on eggshells about everything. John shares why immersion is the key to implementing lessons to change your life. Why you need to think outside the box in order to make things happen. Key Takeaways: Have the courage to not only get started but also to not quit. We need to work with people to get the best out of them – That includes having hard conversations. Be proactive, rather than reactive. Change your mind, change your life. Don't wait for opportunities to come, make them happen. Tweetable Quote: “The coach's job is to teach, correct, and lead the way. And the athlete's job is to work their tail off and do whatever the coach says. If they both do their job, they have a greater chance of the team winning. That's business.” – Ruben Gonzalez Reach out to Denis: Email: denis@leadingchangepartners.com Website:http://www.leadingchangepartners.com/ ( http://www.leadingchangepartners.com/) Leadership Is Changing Facebook Group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/LeadershipIsChanging/ ( https://www.facebook.com/groups/LeadershipIsChanging/) Leadership is Changing LinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/leadership-is-changing-podcast/ (https://www.linkedin.com/company/leadership-is-changing-podcast/)

This week, Dan Neumann is joined by Justin Thatil and Erica Menendez. In this episode, they are discussing the fun topic of vacations and how their planning and unfolding can be done in an Agile way. Dan, Erica, and Justin highlight the importance of always keeping your goals in mind, and considering the expectations of everyone involved in the plan. Listen to this episode and find out how following different Agile Principles can help you plan and enjoy your time off! Key Takeaways Have a goal for your vacations. Even if a proposed vacation looks exciting, don't forget to check in with your goals to make sure they are aligned with the vacation plan. Brainstorming ideas is a great way to find your ideal vacation destination, to later analyze the particular characteristics of each option to make sure it is congruent with the family goals. The product owner role is played by the one organizing the vacation. Doing the research is key to planning a successful trip that meets everyone's expectations. There might be a lot of ideas about things that want to be done on a vacation, but being realistic and selective is crucial to managing expectations. Remember, flexibility is crucial, changes might be implemented at the last moment in order to make the best out of the experience. What can you learn along the way as you are taking the vacations? There are many learning experiences waiting to happen on your vacation plans. Learning and discovering are tasks that you will embrace better after practicing them several times. Remember the maturity of the tool is not the same everywhere you go. (Justin shares his own example while traveling with his wife through Puerto Rico.) Experimentation is necessary in order to take the best out of each situation. Your Daily Scrum can be breakfast. The first mealtime of the day can be a great time for planning the activities. Retrospectives can be done along the way. What goes good and what goes bad can be taken into consideration for planning the next activity or vacation. Don't forget to embrace the new experience you are living with excitement.

Joani Geltman has over 30 years of experience working with parents, children, schools, and community groups. She is also a parenting coach, college professor, and public speaker. In this episode, Joani share insights from her book, “A Survival Guide to Parenting Teens”, simple, concrete practical tips useful in those daily moments of stress as a parent when you wish you had the "right thing to do and the right thing to say”! Key Takeaways Have you ever asked, “What were you thinking?” to your teen? The teenage brain is still growing, and parents often forget that their teen lacks experience. Parents are looking at their teens from an adult brain. Your consequences, you grounding them, is nowhere in their brain when they're being impulsive. Telling your child not to do something is not a strategy. Small children respond okay with a voice of authority. In adolescence, this backfires. All family members are going through major transitions in their life simultaneously. What can you do if you're having a fight with your teen? Teens just want you to acknowledge what you're feeling. How can you talk to your teens about safety? As a parent, sometimes you can preface by saying, “I wouldn't be your mom/dad if I didn't ask this...” to help your teen understand that you care. Sponsored by Vermont Student Assistance Corporation “Gear UP”: https://www.vsac.org/ Resources Joanigeltman.com A Survival Guide to Parenting Teens by Joani Geltman Quotes: “Kids feel before they think. It's a brain that's a volcano waiting to erupt.” “It's not what you say, it's how you say it. With teens, that's especially important.” “Your teens might grumble, but you've now planted a seed with it; their safety.”
What if saying nothing says everything? How often do we respond to something when nothing is required to be said? What if, in some situations, silence is the greatest thing you can choose?Key Takeaways:Have a look at: Does what they say require a response?What is your need to respond?If someone desires to hear what you have to say, they will usually ask you a question.What's the purpose in saying what I'm about to say? What's it actually going to create?How many convos do you have in hopes to get some result or response from someone and how often does that show up?Exercises:Have a look over the last 1-2 weeks at the interactions you've had with people. How many times was a response to those people an automatic response, or where you felt obligated to say something? What were you actually responding to?What if you give yourself the challenge of going 5-minutes with silence? That doesn't mean no sound, but not needing to speak or respond, and being present with everything going on around you. And, if you can't do 5-minutes don't make yourself wrong, just notice what you're aware of.Access Consciousness® Tools:SilenceIs this relevant?

Welcome to THE TRUE NORTH COLLECTIVE℠ PODCAST: SEASON 3! With co-hosts Rachel Bellotti (she/her) and Jenell Riesner (she/her), this is a gathering of un-sugar-coated conversations celebrating the untold stories of everyday people fearlessly finding and living their true north. In our own search to discover and live from our TRUE NORTH, we continue to meet many interesting, courageous people from all walks of life, doing all sorts of amazing things to live life in their own unique way. Stories from all over the world. Stories with heart. Stories with grit. Stories with plot twists. Stories going untold - until now. This season, we celebrate these untold stories of everyday people who are fearlessly living their true north and inspiring each of us to do the same. Today, we’re bringing back Preston Bowers (he/him), from Season 2 | Episode 12, to have an open dialogue around religion and spirituality in the 21st century. Preston is an atheist turned non-denominational Christian after some life-altering, heart-opening experiences from his college years that forced him to come face-to-face with himself, ultimately deciding to study Philosophy and Biblical Studies. We talk about self-righteousness, religion as a psychological crutch, boundaries, spirituality vs religion, morality, death, conviction, loneliness, the purpose of religion + spirituality in the 21st century, self-reliance vs faith, and learning zoom backgrounds. We start slow, but it really ramps up into a deep conversation about how faith can play a role in our lives during these shifting times. *note: this episode includes explicit language appropriate for those ages 16+ RESOURCES MENTIONED: #amplifymelanatedvoices @iammiketodd #amplifymelanatedvoices @queenafua #amplifymelanatedvoices @innerlightwarrior AllTrails Vibram Dallas Baptist University Texas A&M - Corpus Christi Duncan Trussel Family Hour Podcast Brene Brown podcast: Unlocking Brother David Harvard Divinity School article - Religion is changing not dying Harvard Divinity School article - future study of religion Music from: https://www.jukedeck.com/ 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS: Have you allowed religion (or anything for that matter) to be a psychological crutch? A crutch that allows you to avoid taking responsibility for your life or gives you a perceived easy way out from facing your life? Pay attention to the things you deploy in an effort to avoid actually taking ownership for your life. Pay attention to the things that you use to give yourself permission to act in ways that are actually out of integrity for you. And yes, even things that are supposed to be “good for you” or “helpful”, can be used in ways that allow us to avoid taking responsibility and ownership. What do you believe? What do you build your world view around? What are your boundaries that allow you to live into your beliefs? There is an invitation to find your clarity around what is important and what your beliefs are that create your world. Without clarity of these beliefs, you will still have beliefs, they just may not be yours.. So, get curious about what your beliefs are and what beliefs exist within you that maybe want to shift and evolve. And when you land those beliefs, have the courage to be a stand for them while having an open heart for those who may have their own different set of beliefs so that both of you can honor your own journeys without dishonoring someone else’s and visa versa. Keep digging in. Get curious. Poke holes. Research new ideas and find YOUR answers. Just because you land on one worldview that works for you today doesn’t mean that you have “gotten there”. See if you can use that as a foundational framework, then keep looking to ideas and concepts outside of your chosen path to challenge your views and see if your current view still sticks. Or maybe it shifts and that is ok too. Keep learning and growing and evolving and getting YOUR answers, even if it takes you down a path you never thought you would have considered. You will either get more confirmation that the path you are on is the right one for you, or you will learn something and adjust to a shifted path that is more right for you. Either way, you are closer to your path if you continue to question, get curious, unpack, challenge and grow vs staying stagnant and dogmatic.

The question on everyone's minds, but often unheard- especially as a new parent. The truth is, Yes you are. Everyone's breastfeeding journey is different. Does it seem like your mom, grandma, sister, best friend, their friend, and even the lady on the train want to give you some advice or ‘wisdom' on how to breastfeed or raise your new baby? While it can be nice and comforting at times to get advice from those close to you (especially when you're the one asking and they aren't just offering it), it can sometimes be advice that can feel a bit like criticism. There are so many opinions out there and the internet is full of different “sources of truth” that it can feel overwhelming. This episode we talk with Melanie Silverman, long time Lactation Consultant, and Chief Clinical Officer at Pacity about what can be expected during your breastfeeding journey, and how to surround yourself with people who give you encouragement and not criticism. Key Takeaways Have a support system that is encouraging as well - surround yourself with family members who don't judge you for where you are at in your experience or for the decisions you make for the health of your baby. If you are experiencing challenges, reach out to our clinical specialists for a virtual visit! Find a lactation consultant that uses language that is supportive and accepting - don't allow anyone to ever make you feel like you're not good enough. We work with a great team of them and can get you set up after your initial consult. Fall in love with your pump - especially if you're a mom who is going to need to go back to work or wants to breastfeed for up to a year. You're going to need the support of your pump to get you through. You can't Google a standard! So don't try - everyone is different in how much milk they produce, and every baby is different in how much they eat and how often. So don't go scaring yourself by Googling. We know you're a busy mom too, so if you don't have time to listen to the full episode, we're putting the highlights on our Alexa updates. So go and enable the skill to get your news from The Natural Nipple. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thenaturalnipple/support

42: 2 Steps to stop going round in round in circles and finally get unstuck. Going round and round in circles? Look like you're progressing but are you? Here's my strategy for your way out.Only in true continuous effort and struggle comes strength and growth. Go after your dreams by setting up your goals towards success.Hello soul rich woman. Welcome to ‘Soul Why? The Secrets Of The Soul Rich Woman Blueprint' podcast. I'm your host Genecia Alluora. Now, why am I back talking about why you're not making money. Ok maybe that you are, congrats that you are, i'm really proud of you. And I'm just asking why you are still not reaching your goals. And the amount that you want, why are you not still having that. And I want to address it in another episode in another approach. Women to be Financially Freedom02:02 - 02:09 One of the things that I observe is that women. A lot of women don't really need to make a million dollars. 02:20 - 02:43 No, after doing Soul Rich Woman for the last five years and since 2015, not everyone wants to make a million dollars. And for women especially, somehow or another, the way we look at it is that it's because we have other things in life that are important as well. 02:44 - 02:57 And we just want financial independence and then later on eventually our financial freedom. So it's never just making about the million dollars, so I will like you to consider this 03:03 - 03:20 that you need a million dollars you just want to make an amount that is in your mind right now that allows you to be financially independent to make any decisions that you want. Any decisions that your hearts desire. Are you having true progress?03:21 - 03:44 And a lot of us are feeling very busy doing progressive like work, that we think that we are doing work, we think that we are doing things, with things that we are doing our online thing by posting, going online and working, going for another zoom meeting, and you are just doing something. 03:44 - 03:58 Yes, we did teach about taking action. But doing something and doing something day after day are you progressing? Or is it a need to feel significant? 04:07 - 04:11 But that something does not lead to anything. 04:13 - 04:18 Are you having progress? True progress in your business right now?To be seen as a leader online05:04 - 05:23 Making money is easy when you are seen as a leader online. And what we are trying to do is just busyness, keeping us away from the true purpose and true meaning of the goal that we have set out to be. 06:05 - 06:21 Actions plus your response equals the results. Actions plus the response to the events that you are doing whether it is online or offline equals the results. 06:22 - 06:31 If up until today, you still are not getting the results that you want, then, it is time to relook at all the activities that you are doing right now. 06:52 - 07:07 So I want to show with you today, to really look at the activities that you are doing. Be really honest. Write down the list of the things or actions that you supposedly call them actions. Key Takeaways: Have true progress in your business. Make a decision to go after the things that your heart desire Relook at all activities you're doing Progress in the path that you choose to take Add activities that can seriously build up your leadership Key Resources:Subscribe to Genecia's Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/SoulRichWomanVisit SRW's website: https://www.soulrichwoman.comFollow Genecia on Instagram : (@Geneciaalluora)Follow Genecia on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/geneciaalluora/Check Genecia's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/genecia/Free Resource: "Soul Why: Soul Rich Woman Blueprint" and "How to Delegate 80% of your to-do list" ---> https://be.soulrichwoman.comSecrets of Manifesting Money Quickly Online Course ---> https://shor.by/moneymindset
Episode 38: How To Get Clients Who Don't Waste Your Time (They are serious buyers!)Hello, I'm your host Genecia Alluora. Today my topic is why do we do clarity calls or coaching calls at the lowest part of the value ladder? First I wanna talk about why we do a teaser piece in our business to see whether we can be a good fit to our customer or not. Tune in to this episode for more deets!Always have teaser pocket right upfront(02:35 - 02:56) The main reason why I encourage you whether you're a service provider, you're a b2b business owner, you're a female entrepreneur, you're a mompreneur, whichever -preneur you are, always have a teaser pocket right upfront in order to filter up people who are not suitable.(02:58 - 03:18) Through many years because I've gone online and I use this method of filtering through clarity calls that are not free anymore. Previously, long time ago when I was doing image consultancy, till trading time for money my meetups were free.(03:31 - 03:44) Whether you're selling a 20 dollar product or 2,000 dollar product in that few hours definitely you won't be able to sell or promote, or close, or market to the client or potential client to be becauseValue the power of value exchange(03:46 - 03:57) The first part was not already valued. At a certain value that both parties agree on, which means the power of the value exchange. (03:58 - 04:08) So why am I talking about this? Previously I did it for free and then later on I moved online and I learned how to charge my worth.(04:17 - 04:43) This teaser piece is related to an appetizer, is related to a piece of value exchange, is related to how much do you think your time is worth and how much are you worth as a person in terms of your knowledge, and your skills, and time.(04:46 - 04:48) And many women undercharge themselves.(05:14 - 05:33) Having a teaser piece that allows you and your customers or potential customers to agree that the time is valuable. And that allows you to check each other out whether both of you are a good fit or not.Filter customers who are serious about you and your product(05:45 - 06:13) Let me put a perspective for you, why do you pay a lawyer a first upfront consultation fee and then eventually decide whether to engage or not to engage your lawyer. Why do you pay a doctor a consultation fee and then, later on, decide whether to move ahead with the treatments or not to become his patient? (06:15 - 06:36) Then isn't your business the same thing? Are you any lesser than a doctor or a lawyer? I mean, literally, is your years of knowledge and accumulation of experiences not worth more or equal than that? (06:41 - 07:02) Are you charging what you're worth? Are you using any teaser or appetizer pieces that are payable? So that at least your time spent can be also looking into filtering customers who are serious about you and your product and your services.Key Takeaways: Have a teaser pocket to filter out customers who are a good fit to you. Ave your time by filtering out the right customers for you. Know your worth Don't undercharge yourself Use the power of value exchange Key Resources:Subscribe to Genecia's Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/SoulRichWomanVisit SRW's website: https://www.soulrichwoman.comFollow Genecia on Instagram : (@Geneciaalluora)Follow Genecia on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/geneciaalluora/Check Genecia's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/genecia/Free Resource: "Soul Why: Soul Rich Woman Blueprint" and "How to Delegate 80% of your to-do list" ---> https://be.soulrichwoman.comSecrets of Manifesting Money Quickly Online Course ---> https://shor.by/moneymindset

In this episode, we are discussing the most effective ways to evaluate the trainers on your staff. Evaluation time is an opportunity to tell them about the things they are doing well, and what they could start doing to add to that.How often should you review your coaches or your team? Should you do an annual review? Well, waiting a year until you do a sit-down with anybody on your team is way too long. Even in a small environment, people can get a little sideways and start wondering how they fit in, how they're doing and what's next for them.A few years ago, we switched from an annual review to a quarterly review. So it's literally a quarterly sit-down. That helped a lot because then we can get to sit down and have these conversations before things get too far gone. And then, what happens in these meetings is really important, because when people show up otherwise, they are here to work, and we are busy.So, how can you go about making sure that what transpires in these meetings ends up making all sides happy? This is what we are going to discuss, so stay tuned.Key Takeaways:Have trainers think before they get to the meeting (3:13)What are they doing really well right now, and thus should keep doing? (3:50)What can they start doing? Could be about something they're already into (5:13)What do they need to stop doing? (7:02)What can you help them with? (8:19)Grade your trainers across core tenets; secret shop through your clients (12:17)---------Additional Resources:Learn About The Alloy Franchise Opportunity---------You can find the podcast on Apple, Google, Spotify, Stitcher, or wherever you listen to podcasts.If you haven’t already, please rate and review the podcast on Apple Podcasts!

Everyone knows that they have to stay hydrated but are they actually drinking water. “Sitting is the new smoking.” Keep moving throughout your day. “If you live with the news, you live with the blues.” Rico's Book's: https://www.amazon.com/Rico-Caveglia/e/B00IVHDL9G/ref=dp_byline_cont_ebooks_1 Rico's Site: http://www.agelesslivinglifestyle.com/ Related Episodes: 94 - "Be Bold, Never Old!" with Rico Caveglia: http://goingnorth.libsyn.com/94-be-bold-never-old-with-rico-caveglia 6 - "Eat to Thrive" with Katie Sampayo @katie_sampayo: http://goingnorth.libsyn.com/going-north-podcast-episode-6-eat-to-thrive-with-katie-sampayo-katie_sampayo 58 - "Top Keys for Weight Loss" with Christy Callahan Cromwell (@ChristyCromwel1): http://goingnorth.libsyn.com/58-top-keys-for-weight-loss-with-christy-callahan-cromwell 75 - "Life Falls Apart, But You Don't Have To" with Julie Potiker (@JuliePotiker): http://goingnorth.libsyn.com/75-life-falls-apart-but-you-dont-have-to-with-julie-potiker-juliepotiker 97.5 (Thanksgiving Bonus Episode) - "MindShift On Demand" with Donna Blevins (@BigGirlPoker): http://goingnorth.libsyn.com/975-thanksgiving-bonus-episode-mindshift-on-demand-with-donna-blevins-biggirlpoker 108 - "The Holy Sh!t Moment" with James Fell (@BodyForWife): http://goingnorth.libsyn.com/108-the-holy-sht-moment-with-james-fell-bodyforwife The opening track is titled, "Uncommon Sense" by Rukunetsu aka Project R.

Alex's business hasn't been reaching their targeted goals for the year, so he's taken a more proactive and different approach to get in front of more sellers. Remember, a lot of the times it's not about how much money you can make, it's about solving your seller's problem. If you can't get in front of them, then it's important to dive deep on a phone call and see what kind of frustrations they have that you can solve. Key Takeaways: Have any comments or suggestions for the show? Reach out to Alex! Alex is ultra focused on making a positive impact and helping others. Alex has been running into some challenges with the business. What happens if you can't get face-to-face with a seller? Alex's team is focused on going deeper on the phone and seeing if they can agree on a ballpark price. Forget about the deal. Forget about the money. You want to always pay attention to how you can solve the seller's problems. The more competitive the market gets, the more ‘old school' the marketing needs to get.

Alex shares some thoughts and reflections he's been having as of late. It's important to disconnect and unplug from your business to discover new ways to be better. Also, don't forget to appreciate your team members and find out on a personal level what motivates them. At the end of the day, if something is not working for you, find a way to pivot because everybody deserves to be happy and to live the best version of themselves. Key Takeaways: Have you been doing something for the last eight months and it just isn't working? It might be tough, but make time to unplug from the business to get your head straight. Disconnect from ‘life' and ask yourself thought-provoking questions that help you become better. Alex feels so blessed and grateful to have a team that keeps things moving. It's important you communicate to your team how important they are to your business. Make them feel valued. Some people simply aren't motivated by money. You can't always throw money at people to incentivize them. So, how can you keep them motivated? Alex reflects on a masterclass he had with Haim Mamane. This business should not be just about money. A sustainable business has to go beyond dollar signs and profit margins. Mentioned in This Episode: Feel free to connect with Alex about doing a JV!

When you're selling an online course, webinar series, or membership program, time and money are often two of the biggest reservations your new clients will have before making the purchase. One tactic that many entrepreneurs use to overcome these obstacles and encourage people to place their order is to offer lifetime, unlimited access to the content. In this episode, I explain what a lifetime access membership truly means, why I believe it's a lie, and why I don't recommend offering it to your clients. I share my experience with offering lifetime access programs, the lessons I have learned throughout these experiences, and how offering lifetime access to your programs can negatively impact your clients - and your business. ”Most online programs don't last forever.” - Sigrun In This Episode of The Sigrun Show: Challenges often associated with offering lifetime access membership programs and courses Practical alternatives to lifetime access programs How to remove lifetime access programs from your list of offers without upsetting your clients Why lifetime access is not an honest way to conduct business and can encourage procrastination Key Takeaways: Have an “end date” in mind when creating your programs.

The words we use to talk with our children about money, being able to afford something or calling things expensive are powerful shapers of their reality and their destiny. Let's have a conversation around teaching them their power and instilling a beautiful belief system in their minds around money at a young age. 3 Key Takeaways Have real conversations about how you want to spend money. When teaching your kids about money, rather than using words based in lack, based in scarcity, based in not enough, based in diminishing their power of what they can create in this world, you can have real conversations about how you want to spend your money as parents and what things you think are best for your kids, because that does fall on you as parents. Shift your language. Rather than putting a monetary value on something and saying that it’s expensive, shift your words into saying it’s important and why it’s important. Help your children to own their power to create the life they choose. Notice your language when you’re talking to your kids about money, about the affordability of something, about the value of something, and help them to own their power in creating and drawing to them things that would make their lives fuller and richer. Quotes “Money is a beautiful thing. It is so useful. It can help you to create a beautiful life. It can expand your awareness of so many experiences.” “Because of money there are so many wonderful things we can share and say about having money, but that’s not the conversation most of us heard growing up.” “When you follow your joy, you’re rewarded financially. When you serve others, you will always be taken care of.” “Money can be fun. Money is meant for enjoyment and circulation.” Action Steps Be mindful of what you’re saying to your kids about money matters. Change your language. For example, when purchasing something, instead of saying, “That’s too expensive. We can’t afford it,” you can say something like, “Let’s buy it next time.” Visit Bridgett here on the blog: http://thetruthaboutliving.com Join the fb group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/629400203914720/ Watch & Subscribe on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgW0B8eytH3KK7RUi6o-7uA

Selling Old VCR tapes, Selfie-Glove Discussion, and other side hustles – Shane McLendon - Ep 29 Shame McLendon and I connected when he found my CADdesignhelp.com Facebook page. He was looking for guests on the Built in a Day Podcast. I went on the podcast and talked about product testing with the Selfie-Glove. This was in the fall of 2016. Shane and I hadn't talked in a while, so we did a podcast to catch up and throw around business ideas. Shane has quite a few side hustles, mostly as a copywriter. His current project is Theboxcrusher.com, which is a website to give blue collar workers ideas of how to get more customers for their business (think plumbers, welders, lawn mowing). We also through around ideas on other products that might be good for me to make. The trick I have found about selling online is that you need to offer something a lot of people want. One big hit I have had is the Led Zeppelin object. We discuss some other products that might be good. Key Takeaways Have a big list of ideas to try. You really don't know what's going to work until you try it. Who would have guessed that old VCR tapes would be popular? Look for gaps in the market. I think Shane is onto something with his com website. There is an opportunity to teach blue collar workers concepts like the lean startup method.

This question came from a listener named Brandon. He asked, “What is the best way to ask a friend to leave a podcast and still remain friends?” This is a great question, although a really hard one. What should you do when your co-host just isn't working out? How should you handle it? Key Takeaways: Have a conversation with your co-host, don’t discuss the problems or fire them through text or email. If you’re at the point of wanting to kick someone off your podcast, it means you’ve already made the mistake of not setting clear expectations up front. Work to help your co-host improve; don’t kick them out the door before you’ve exhausted every option. No one is perfect. No one gets everything right the first time. Be willing to work with your co-host to help them improve their weak points. First: Why do you want to fire your co-host? What are the reasons? You need to identify the issues and write them down. Make sure you fully understand what your frustrations are and what you’d like them to do differently. Talk it over with a few trusted friends. Make sure that you’re thinking straight and that your arguments make sense. When you’re ready to discuss the problems with your co-host, have an informal chat instead of just sending them the list of things they’re doing wrong. Have a conversation with your co-host, don’t discuss the problems or fire them through text or email. When you do have the conversation, start by talking about your goals for the show. Are they still aligned? Does your friend or co-host remember the reason they wanted to do the podcast in the first place? Set Expectations In the Very Beginning Setting expectations before you start is key. Have conversations about everything; length of shows, the focus of podcast, goals, expectations, sponsors, audience interaction, brand, commitment, consistency, and so on. Have in-depth conversations about all these things before you start to make sure you and your co-host are on the same page. If you’re at the point of wanting to kick someone off your podcast, it means you’ve already made the mistake of not setting clear expectations up front. Get all of these things in writing. That way, you have a document (even if it’s just an email) that you can refer back to later if there are any questions about expectations that were set and agreed to in the beginning. Who Runs This Podcast? Who’s the Boss? Podcasts rarely have truly equal partners. Someone usually holds more power or authority. If you are in a situation where you are trying to be equal partners, maybe you should consider talking about who should have that 51% power (either you or your co-host). If you aren’t sure who is in charge, think about who is taking the lead. Who handles the admin work? Who runs the website? Who’s in charge? If it’s you, then you can fire your co-host or ask them to leave. If it’s not you, then you might be put in a position where you’ll have to leave the podcast. Maybe Try to Fix the Problems First? Approach your co-host with respect and an open mind. Highlight the good things they bring to the show. Talk about the ways that they are contributing, then talk about what you’d like them to do differently. Discuss the problems with them and give them a chance to change. Work to help your co-host improve; don’t kick them out the door before you’ve exhausted every option. Remember, this probably isn’t going to be a pleasant experience for your co-host. No one likes being told they are doing something wrong or being a disappointment in some way. What are the Qualities of a Bad Co-host? So what are some bad qualities to have as a podcast co-host? Here are a few examples: Their views and values are different than the stated values of the show They’re rude to you or audience members They’re inconsistent (they don’t show up on time for recordings) They won’t help prepare for episodes (being unprepared) They don’t really care about doing a good show, they’re un-interested in success They’re really bad at talking (tons of umms, stammers, and other bad verbal ticks) and they don't seem to care about improving They aren’t interested in providing value to the audience, they’re not focused on what the audience needs or wants What are the Qualities of a Good Co-host? The qualities of a good co-host are pretty much the opposite of the bad qualities: They helps with the workload They show up on time They are excited about the show, they promote the show They invest time preparing for episodes They stay true to the intended purpose of the podcast; they don’t get off track or discuss things the audience wouldn’t be interested in Your Audience Will Notice How You Handle Firing a Co-host You might think when it comes to firing your co-host that it’s not a big deal, but your actions are going to impact your audience too, and how they perceive you. Your audience will notice the change and the way you handle the situation. I mentioned at the beginning of the show that I left a podcast once. I was the original co-host of the seanwes podcast, but I stepped down after 21 episodes. Sean McCabe recorded episode 22 after we had the discussion about my role in the seanwes podcast which led to me deciding to leave the show. I re-listened to that episode this morning and it still stands as a fantastic example of how to explain to your audience that a co-host is leaving the show. In episode 22, Sean revisited the original stated purpose of the show, and explains how I was consistently taking the show off track by conflating all the topics to my career in music, rather than staying focused on the stated purpose of the show, which was business as it relates to design. I have to give Sean props for the way he handled the situation. He got me to agree that my goals weren’t aligned with the goals of the show, and that even though there was nothing wrong with my goals, I wasn’t going to be a good fit for the show moving forward unless I was willing to put aside my needs to better serve the audience’s needs. I wasn’t, so I agreed that it would be better for me to step down. In a way, he was able to get me to talk myself into leaving, which worked out best for everyone. To this day, I still have a lot of respect for Sean and how he approached that situation. He didn’t come to me and say, “Hey, some of the listeners are complaining, and you suck at podcasting”. He said, “Would you be willing to make this change in order to better serve the needs of our audience?” He handled the situation with kindness and grace, and we remain great friends to this day even though I chose to leave the show. Focus on Making the Show Better If you’re thinking about asking your co-host to leave, I urge you to keep the focus on doing whatever it takes to make the show better. Be brave enough to present the problem to your co-host and ask them if they’re willing to work on it. Be patient enough to help them and work with them to make the podcast better for both of you as well as the audience. No one is perfect. No one gets everything right the first time. Be willing to work with your co-host to help them improve their weak points. Q&A: Anonymous asks: What if your co-host is your wife? Ahah, I see what you did there. It comes back to why. Do they seem disinterested? Is their heart not in it? Are they just doing it to make you happy? Does it seem like they aren’t really enjoying it anymore? If you suspect these things, you need to sit down and have a conversation. Maybe there’s something she’d rather be doing with her time. Ask her.
