Brief Episode Summary:Honoring our differences is fundamental to digging ourselves out of the hole we're in. Will Rogers said, "If you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging, but we can't do that until we first love ourselves and honor our uniqueness!" In the meantime, we're eating ourselves and each other alive! This episode provides REAL HELP we all desperately need to hear with our heart and implement! Key Topics:How and why did Purple People Inc., an internationally acclaimed creative life-altering business come into being?When we disparage one another to lessen our pain, we dishonor our uniqueness and Divine design, inviting disgrace and shame onto ourselves! We're inextricably tied to each other! How do we begin getting past the pain in our lives so we might begin to love those we brand as the unlovable?Purple People are supposed to see ALL people as equals, honoring our differences and cherishing our similarities. How do we honor our differences while remaining true to who we are?The essence of Purple People is the spreading of "love and light" in its myriad expressions to all...full stop! Notwithstanding our differences, how can we make progress toward being "bridge builders?"Honoring another means there should never be an attack of any kind on a person or group! That has a zero chance of making progress towards honoring our differences! Disagreeing over a position is one thing. Making it personal blows up the bridge!

After three decades in the industry Mo reveals what it is that keeps her going day in and day out.  She shares that it is her sense of purpose that keeps her inspired through the good and also through the not so good moments. We talk about the importance of finding our why behind our work and that the why does not need to come with a big W.  Mo's why is to positively impact people through her work. Mo talked about being recently diagnosed with arthritis in her hips. She understood that this was the time to figure out how to take care of herself as she had been telling others to do. This was her wake up call - the nudge that reminded her that she had been so busy she had ignored the signs to slow down. Mo recognized her need to "do" versus "be" and how many moments she had missed fully experiencing due to running so fast. We discuss the event she founded and created called “Women Who Influence.” This inspirational gathering of women leaders recently celebrated its 4th year. Mo had seen a lack of female leadership in the fitness industry and decided to do something about it. Say it "can’t be done" and Mo will explore ways to make it happen. Premiering  with 50 participants at her first event in Canada, Women Who Influence now sells out at 250 participants, and is  expanding outside of Canada to Australia and recently China. Mo shares the idea of learn as you are earn and I love that concept – don’t wait to know it all before starting or you will never begin. Mo encourages us to begin before you think you are ready and surround yourself with the people who inspire you. Act "as if." Mo says that it is in the personal development that will enable us to follow our why and not be thrown by our negative critics. Mo shared what happened when she spoke to industries outside of the fitness industry. It was when she was speaking to corporations she realized that many of them could not get travel insurance for the trips of their dreams. She once again saw a need to help those we do not see in a gym or who are not already working out. It was their health or fear of their declining health that was the greatest risk to their dreams. Mo talks about her recent book that she co-authored called, "Think Yourself Successful." In this book she shares her work around personal development and how we can manage our state, so we can be at our best to enable us to live a life of our dreams. We also talk about the importance of really believing in the why behind why you are wanting to write a book, if that it on your bucket list. She also suggests that a great place to start is to seek out other authors who are looking to co-author a book and find other authors that you can talk to and find out the behind the scenes of writing. Mo shares how Canadian Fitness Professionals got started over a five minute conversation and now is about to celebrate its 25th Anniversary.
