tired of being overcoached oversold and undersupported

15

00:00:26,066 --> 00:00:28,833

00:00:28,833 --> 00:00:30,766

from your compass within

00:00:35,433 --> 00:00:37,200

and today we're gonna talk about that topic

20

00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:39,866

so welcome to the show Kristen fabulous

21

00:00:39,866 --> 00:00:41,166

thank you so much for having me

22

00:00:41,166 --> 00:00:42,766

I'm really excited to be here

23

00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:47,000

I am always interested to find out someone's story

24

00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:47,133

what what got you into the business that you're in

25

00:00:49,233 --> 00:00:49,500

and what took you in the direction that you're now

26

00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:51,700

the

27

00:00:51,700 --> 00:00:53,766

topic that you're covering about being overcoached

28

00:00:53,766 --> 00:00:55,700

and not not listening to yourself

29

00:00:55,966 --> 00:00:57,200

how did this all come about

30

00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:58,766

well long story short

31

00:00:58,866 --> 00:01:00,200

I was in corporate leadership for over 20 years

32

00:01:03,466 --> 00:01:04,666

and so I worked coaching people

33

00:01:05,633 --> 00:01:06,933

developing people

34

00:01:07,033 --> 00:01:09,600

when that part of my career ended

35

00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,266

it was a no brainer to start working with women

36

00:01:12,266 --> 00:01:14,666

and through that I've start

37

00:01:14,666 --> 00:01:17,833

I've come to be very aligned with working with women

38

00:01:17,833 --> 00:01:19,933

who have unique types of businesses

39

00:01:19,933 --> 00:01:22,833

they're just the people that naturally found me

40

00:01:23,433 --> 00:01:26,400

and most of them have been trying to

41

00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:31,033

cram themselves into doing things a certain way and

42

00:01:31,233 --> 00:01:34,033

and what I've been really good at doing is figuring out

43

00:01:34,033 --> 00:01:34,400

okay well

44

00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,366

how can we just unpack all of that and stop doing that

45

00:01:37,366 --> 00:01:38,133

and so I kind of

46

00:01:38,133 --> 00:01:40,566

was bridging this period of time where I was sort of

47

00:01:40,566 --> 00:01:42,833

life coach and I was sort of a business coach

48

00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,800

and through my journey of learning what works for me

49

00:01:47,166 --> 00:01:48,966

and how to expand my business

50

00:01:48,966 --> 00:01:49,333

I have tried practically everything under the sun

51

00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,066

and what I've come to learn through that is

52

00:01:55,066 --> 00:01:56,366

they're all right

53

00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,333

there's not anything wrong with any of

54

00:01:58,466 --> 00:01:59,666

business strategies that are out there

55

00:02:00,166 --> 00:02:02,166

and there are a lot of people that are really

56

00:02:02,166 --> 00:02:04,266

successful through any one of them

57

00:02:04,833 --> 00:02:05,633

but if we're picking

58

00:02:05,633 --> 00:02:08,066

and trying on the one that doesn't work for us

59

00:02:08,233 --> 00:02:12,066

um we're not going to be as successful as we want to be

60

00:02:12,066 --> 00:02:14,233

we're going to start running into some resistance

61

00:02:14,233 --> 00:02:15,666

of some sort um

62

00:02:15,666 --> 00:02:17,400

and as women especially

63

00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,233

we tend to take on a lot of extra responsibility

64

00:02:20,233 --> 00:02:23,533

we tend to have a whole lot of self sabotaging um

65

00:02:23,533 --> 00:02:27,033

self talk we tend to make ourselves feel wrong

66

00:02:27,033 --> 00:02:29,700

when something else isn't working

67

00:02:30,066 --> 00:02:35,666

and so what I have found is that um when we can

68

00:02:36,333 --> 00:02:39,600

stop trying to be all of the things and ways

69

00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:41,633

that everyone else wants us to be

70

00:02:41,633 --> 00:02:44,433

and we start to it's gonna sound a little overused

71

00:02:44,433 --> 00:02:45,400

or is a little overused

72

00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:46,933

but we can start to give ourselves Grace

73

00:02:46,933 --> 00:02:48,833

and then move from there right

74

00:02:48,833 --> 00:02:49,433

we can say okay

75

00:02:49,433 --> 00:02:51,266

so this isn't working for me

76

00:02:51,366 --> 00:02:53,966

that's okay what is working

77

00:02:53,966 --> 00:02:57,333

what can I do and we really get back to what that

78

00:02:57,333 --> 00:03:00,366

that root is of what we want and moving from there

79

00:03:00,366 --> 00:03:03,166

so it all kind of came together

80

00:03:03,666 --> 00:03:05,266

through my own trial and error

81

00:03:05,266 --> 00:03:06,400

through my own clients

82

00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,666

through learning what works for each of them

83

00:03:08,766 --> 00:03:10,200

and from trying on plenty of strategies myself

84

00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,366

and combining all of the deep

85

00:03:14,366 --> 00:03:17,666

transformational work that I do with my clients

86

00:03:17,666 --> 00:03:19,400

to overcome what those

87

00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,266

those narratives and stories are that we hold on to

88

00:03:22,833 --> 00:03:25,166

I love that so you talked a little bit about um

89

00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,133

women in unique businesses

90

00:03:27,133 --> 00:03:27,500

so I'm curious to hear a little more about that

91

00:03:28,966 --> 00:03:29,700

um well

92

00:03:29,700 --> 00:03:31,266

I've worked with people who have done all sorts

93

00:03:31,266 --> 00:03:32,333

of things um

94

00:03:32,333 --> 00:03:33,366

and so you know

95

00:03:33,366 --> 00:03:35,033

that's one of the things that I've struggled with

96

00:03:35,033 --> 00:03:35,833

in my business is

97

00:03:35,833 --> 00:03:36,466

we're told you know

98

00:03:36,466 --> 00:03:37,166

niche down

99

00:03:37,166 --> 00:03:39,366

work with this one particular type of person

100

00:03:39,366 --> 00:03:42,966

and what I've Learned through that is that yes

101

00:03:42,966 --> 00:03:44,933

I get to work with a particular type of person

102

00:03:44,933 --> 00:03:46,833

but they do a whole lot of different stuff

103

00:03:46,833 --> 00:03:47,200

they're all multipassionate

104

00:03:48,566 --> 00:03:51,266

um a lot of them are multi hyphenate themselves

105

00:03:51,266 --> 00:03:54,533

they do a whole lot of different things um

106

00:03:54,533 --> 00:03:58,033

I've worked with women who have LED um

107

00:03:59,700 --> 00:04:02,333

everything from fairly corporate seeming businesses

108

00:04:02,333 --> 00:04:02,866

you know or traditional businesses like

109

00:04:04,733 --> 00:04:06,366

um education

110

00:04:06,366 --> 00:04:07,566

software that they sold

111

00:04:07,566 --> 00:04:08,066

and educational programs to women

112

00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,433

and who have been on their 670

113

00:04:11,433 --> 00:04:14,166

second life on this planet and

114

00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:15,866

or just life in general

115

00:04:15,866 --> 00:04:16,833

and they're trying to find their purpose

116

00:04:18,933 --> 00:04:20,566

to make sure that it is you know

117

00:04:20,566 --> 00:04:22,066

the best experience that they can have

118

00:04:22,066 --> 00:04:23,966

and how can they set up um

119

00:04:24,133 --> 00:04:25,866

you know something that aligns with them

120

00:04:25,866 --> 00:04:27,666

and just figuring out what that looks like

121

00:04:27,666 --> 00:04:29,733

so it's run the gamut

122

00:04:29,733 --> 00:04:32,933

you know a lot of people are online service providers

123

00:04:33,266 --> 00:04:34,066

um

124

00:04:34,533 --> 00:04:36,400

doing good in the world

125

00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,833

and wanting to make a shift somehow in the collective

126

00:04:40,833 --> 00:04:42,166

through how they're showing up

127

00:04:42,166 --> 00:04:43,666

and through the work that they're doing

128

00:04:44,266 --> 00:04:45,900

you're talking about um

129

00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:49,633

proven systems can sometimes feel like sandpaper

130

00:04:49,866 --> 00:04:50,666

I love that

131

00:04:50,666 --> 00:04:53,066

so do you want to elaborate on that a little bit more

132

00:04:53,666 --> 00:04:56,533

yeah so as an example

133

00:04:56,533 --> 00:04:59,133

like there are very basics within business

134

00:04:59,133 --> 00:05:00,400

that are foundational right

135

00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:01,566

if we want to have clients

136

00:05:01,566 --> 00:05:02,833

we need to talk to people

137

00:05:02,833 --> 00:05:05,133

that is that that's a basic

138

00:05:05,366 --> 00:05:08,333

they're not just going to magically appear one day

139

00:05:08,766 --> 00:05:11,566

but the ways that we can get there and talk to people

140

00:05:11,666 --> 00:05:12,933

we can learn

141

00:05:12,933 --> 00:05:16,633

and we can start to work with how we like to operate

142

00:05:16,633 --> 00:05:19,433

so as an example you know I for example joined

143

00:05:20,266 --> 00:05:21,633

a coaching program

144

00:05:22,133 --> 00:05:23,733

and from everything I saw at the beginning

145

00:05:23,733 --> 00:05:25,200

it felt really good it was about you know

146

00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:26,800

working with your feminine energy

147

00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:28,800

and it wasn't too woo woo

148

00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:30,133

and out there but you know

149

00:05:30,133 --> 00:05:31,400

really not being in the bro marketing space

150

00:05:32,533 --> 00:05:33,333

which I think is important for some of us

151

00:05:35,166 --> 00:05:38,300

and so it felt really warm and genuine and and

152

00:05:38,333 --> 00:05:39,966

you know like a place I wanted to be in

153

00:05:39,966 --> 00:05:41,233

and I was learning some stuff

154

00:05:41,233 --> 00:05:42,900

and then as we got into like the next level of work

155

00:05:44,233 --> 00:05:45,233

and the next level okay

156

00:05:45,233 --> 00:05:45,600

now you've got this foundation

157

00:05:46,266 --> 00:05:47,533

you're gonna build on here

158

00:05:47,533 --> 00:05:50,533

and then ultimately what it was doing is

159

00:05:50,966 --> 00:05:54,633

moving us along into speaking on stages now

160

00:05:54,633 --> 00:05:57,200

I actually have a I am really not comfortable

161

00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,433

speaking in front of big groups of people

162

00:05:59,633 --> 00:06:01,633

so all of this other stuff was great

163

00:06:01,633 --> 00:06:02,766

and now I was being told OK

164

00:06:02,766 --> 00:06:04,466

so if you want your next level of success

165

00:06:04,466 --> 00:06:06,633

you have to speak on stages hmm

166

00:06:07,433 --> 00:06:09,233

I'm not really a public speaker

167

00:06:09,233 --> 00:06:12,833

my natural talents lean me towards writing

168

00:06:13,166 --> 00:06:15,266

towards one to one conversation

169

00:06:15,533 --> 00:06:17,233

and to being a little bit more off the cuff

170

00:06:17,233 --> 00:06:19,266

I'm not great at having a whole lot prepared

171

00:06:19,266 --> 00:06:20,366

and then having to like

172

00:06:20,366 --> 00:06:24,833

speak to that so the foundations were great

173

00:06:24,833 --> 00:06:25,633

but had I

174

00:06:25,633 --> 00:06:26,033

then I forced myself into continuing on that strategy

175

00:06:30,133 --> 00:06:31,400

it felt like sandpaper

176

00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,666

it was going against everything in my being

177

00:06:34,666 --> 00:06:36,233

that feels good and natural

178

00:06:36,233 --> 00:06:38,066

and the way I like to operate

179

00:06:38,566 --> 00:06:41,633

and so what tends to happen is a lot of folks say okay

180

00:06:41,633 --> 00:06:43,433

well I just have to figure it out

181

00:06:43,433 --> 00:06:45,433

I just have to get good at this thing

182

00:06:45,433 --> 00:06:48,766

I just have to keep swimming uphill or

183

00:06:48,766 --> 00:06:49,366

you know keep

184

00:06:49,366 --> 00:06:50,433

keep swimming upstream

185

00:06:50,433 --> 00:06:51,966

and keep going against the grain

186

00:06:51,966 --> 00:06:54,333

and keep having it feel really difficult

187

00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,566

when we don't have to have it feel difficult

188

00:06:56,566 --> 00:07:00,166

it gets to feel easy and the trick is

189

00:07:00,166 --> 00:07:02,600

simply leaning into what we are good at

190

00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,300

figuring out what that is

191

00:07:04,333 --> 00:07:05,233

and sometimes that's

192

00:07:05,233 --> 00:07:07,800

in finding someone that can help pull that out of you

193

00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,000

because we've been told success looks a certain way

194

00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:13,600

we've been told you have to be loud

195

00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:14,733

you have to be in front of people

196

00:07:14,733 --> 00:07:15,866

you have to do a certain thing

197

00:07:15,866 --> 00:07:17,200

you have to build a big audience

198

00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,000

you have to do this and so

199

00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,833

we can get caught up in all the minutiae along the way

200

00:07:23,633 --> 00:07:26,400

um and then it's feeling really

201

00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,633

like there's a whole lot of friction

202

00:07:28,633 --> 00:07:29,900

and often that friction that a sandpaper

203

00:07:30,766 --> 00:07:32,466

you know it probably resonates

204

00:07:32,466 --> 00:07:33,733

you know when people hear that

205

00:07:33,733 --> 00:07:34,433

it's like oh yeah

206

00:07:34,433 --> 00:07:37,966

I've been there it just feels rough um

207

00:07:38,333 --> 00:07:40,033

when we can strip that away

208

00:07:40,033 --> 00:07:43,733

it gets to feel a whole lot easier and more fluid

209

00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:46,166

it's so true and I think with women

210

00:07:46,166 --> 00:07:47,366

sometimes you see them

211

00:07:47,633 --> 00:07:49,766

it's almost like they wanna show up as someone else

212

00:07:49,766 --> 00:07:51,000

you know it's like they're

213

00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:51,766

they're not good enough

214

00:07:51,766 --> 00:07:53,366

or they're not worthy of success

215

00:07:53,633 --> 00:07:54,766

and we talk a lot about this

216

00:07:54,766 --> 00:07:56,366

when we talk about content creation

217

00:07:56,366 --> 00:07:58,733

and video marketing or hosting a podcast

218

00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:00,866

you know people are attracted to you

219

00:08:00,866 --> 00:08:02,066

when you're actually yourself

220

00:08:02,566 --> 00:08:03,266

you know I know Genie

221

00:08:03,266 --> 00:08:05,033

the word authentic kind of drives her crazy

222

00:08:05,033 --> 00:08:06,166

cause it's so overused

223

00:08:06,166 --> 00:08:08,466

but if you just show up as yourself

224

00:08:09,133 --> 00:08:10,633

I think people that are

225

00:08:10,666 --> 00:08:13,000

are your ideal clients will be attracted to you

226

00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,666

and you'll resonate with them

227

00:08:14,666 --> 00:08:16,566

and if you're trying to be someone else

228

00:08:16,566 --> 00:08:19,133

if you do land clients they're not your clients

229

00:08:19,133 --> 00:08:19,400

because they were attracted to this person

230

00:08:21,666 --> 00:08:24,733

the show this persona that you put on

231

00:08:24,900 --> 00:08:26,066

and um

232

00:08:26,166 --> 00:08:27,733

you know I like to say if you see me here on a

233

00:08:27,733 --> 00:08:30,166

a call and we have a conversation on the street

234

00:08:30,166 --> 00:08:32,066

I talk with my hands all the time right

235

00:08:32,066 --> 00:08:33,966

so what you see is what you get

236

00:08:33,966 --> 00:08:34,366

and so

237

00:08:34,366 --> 00:08:37,900

I think it's really important for people to figure out

238

00:08:38,033 --> 00:08:40,900

how do they come to the table in their business

239

00:08:41,166 --> 00:08:42,600

bringing like you said

240

00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,066

their gifts their skills

241

00:08:44,166 --> 00:08:46,766

and not trying to fit themselves into a box

242

00:08:46,766 --> 00:08:48,933

whether it's with their marketing or

243

00:08:48,933 --> 00:08:50,466

you know whatever they're doing in their business

244

00:08:50,466 --> 00:08:51,366

to be able to tune in

245

00:08:51,366 --> 00:08:53,466

and figure out if it's right for them

246

00:08:53,466 --> 00:08:55,533

and I think that's something Jean and I are lucky

247

00:08:55,533 --> 00:08:57,366

because we do get to tune into

248

00:08:57,466 --> 00:08:58,933

you know both very intuitive

249

00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,066

so we do lean into what works

250

00:09:01,133 --> 00:09:02,766

and we have to respect the fact that sometimes

251

00:09:02,766 --> 00:09:04,600

something that might work for Genie

252

00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,033

wouldn't work for me like for example

253

00:09:06,033 --> 00:09:07,466

she loves public speaking

254

00:09:07,533 --> 00:09:09,200

I'm like you I hate it Kristen

255

00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:11,133

I don't want to do it but by me

256

00:09:11,133 --> 00:09:12,833

by looking at what we like doing

257

00:09:12,833 --> 00:09:14,766

and where our unique abilities are

258

00:09:14,766 --> 00:09:15,833

then we can support each other

259

00:09:15,833 --> 00:09:17,633

to do those things within the business

260

00:09:17,633 --> 00:09:19,033

rather than like you said

261

00:09:19,033 --> 00:09:20,566

trying to find it's like one

262

00:09:20,933 --> 00:09:23,766

one path fits everyone one size fits all T-shirt

263

00:09:23,766 --> 00:09:24,566

you know

264

00:09:25,033 --> 00:09:27,200

exactly that one size fits all T-shirt

265

00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:28,400

but it's too small for you

266

00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,600

you know so it feels like really tight and restrictive

267

00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:32,300

and it just it doesn't fit

268

00:09:32,733 --> 00:09:35,966

um one of the things that I work with my clients on is

269

00:09:35,966 --> 00:09:37,966

figuring out who your favorite self is

270

00:09:37,966 --> 00:09:39,766

and I love that you came into this term of

271

00:09:39,766 --> 00:09:40,866

you know authenticity

272

00:09:40,866 --> 00:09:42,166

because often times too

273

00:09:42,166 --> 00:09:43,266

I think that we're

274

00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:45,633

we're fed an ideal version

275

00:09:45,633 --> 00:09:46,200

you know

276

00:09:46,266 --> 00:09:48,866

become your highest self be your best self

277

00:09:48,866 --> 00:09:49,433

and that intrinsically

278

00:09:50,266 --> 00:09:52,833

and inherently brings along a whole lot of judgment

279

00:09:52,933 --> 00:09:55,533

what does that look like and we've

280

00:09:55,533 --> 00:09:58,566

been conditioned to behave a certain way

281

00:09:58,566 --> 00:10:00,033

through society through culture

282

00:10:00,033 --> 00:10:01,033

through our families

283

00:10:01,033 --> 00:10:03,066

through our communities that we're in

284

00:10:03,233 --> 00:10:06,966

that we get used to showing up in certain ways

285

00:10:06,966 --> 00:10:08,233

and with certain patterns

286

00:10:08,233 --> 00:10:10,066

and they become our default

287

00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:11,433

but they're not necessarily our true mode of operating

288

00:10:14,833 --> 00:10:15,133

and

289

00:10:15,133 --> 00:10:17,000

they might be things that we've been carrying with us

290

00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:18,066

since we were 10 years old

291

00:10:18,066 --> 00:10:20,033

and somebody said something mean to us

292

00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,766

and we might not even remember what that situation is

293

00:10:22,766 --> 00:10:24,266

but we came up with a coping mechanism and we

294

00:10:25,900 --> 00:10:27,033

we've been carrying that

295

00:10:27,033 --> 00:10:28,733

and it's been getting bigger and bigger and bigger

296

00:10:28,733 --> 00:10:30,966

as we've gone a long life

297

00:10:30,966 --> 00:10:32,566

and we've had our lived experience

298

00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:34,566

and so I actually

299

00:10:34,566 --> 00:10:37,800

step my clients away from trying to become your best

300

00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:38,266

most authentic self

301

00:10:39,066 --> 00:10:39,900

and we lean in into finding who is your favorite self

302

00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,433

and there's a whole lot of work that we do

303

00:10:44,433 --> 00:10:45,933

along with that and who

304

00:10:46,333 --> 00:10:48,766

when you're showing up in your most favorite ways

305

00:10:48,766 --> 00:10:50,000

when you're having the most fun

306

00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:51,666

when you're feeling most aligned

307

00:10:51,733 --> 00:10:53,400

who is that what

308

00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,533

and not what does everybody say it needs to look like

309

00:10:56,533 --> 00:10:58,533

not what does everybody else expect from you

310

00:10:58,533 --> 00:10:58,933

but you know

311

00:10:58,933 --> 00:10:59,566

what is your favorite day

312

00:11:00,233 --> 00:11:00,433

if you could design your favorite day of working

313

00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:03,866

what would that look like

314

00:11:03,866 --> 00:11:05,100

and what would you be doing

315

00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:06,500

what is

316

00:11:06,566 --> 00:11:08,366

what does your favorite self wear

317

00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:09,766

and you know

318

00:11:09,766 --> 00:11:11,233

not what do you put on every day

319

00:11:11,233 --> 00:11:11,766

when you get up

320

00:11:11,766 --> 00:11:13,933

and it's the easiest thing to grab from the closet

321

00:11:13,933 --> 00:11:16,566

but what does your favorite self actually wear

322

00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,233

and and this is one of the most effective things I do

323

00:11:20,233 --> 00:11:21,666

with my clients I've had you know

324

00:11:21,666 --> 00:11:25,200

recently one person and she was stuck

325

00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:26,000

she's had a really successful business

326

00:11:26,633 --> 00:11:28,033

as a financial coach but she wanted to move into

327

00:11:29,733 --> 00:11:32,333

health and nutrition coaching for moms

328

00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:33,633

and so it was you know

329

00:11:33,633 --> 00:11:35,000

sitting really close to her heart

330

00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,600

she's a mom she had you know

331

00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:37,566

turned her health around

332

00:11:37,566 --> 00:11:39,533

and she knew how different she felt

333

00:11:40,100 --> 00:11:41,633

um but everything

334

00:11:41,633 --> 00:11:43,533

felt like it was going to be an uphill battle

335

00:11:43,533 --> 00:11:45,433

that she was going to have to recreate everything

336

00:11:45,433 --> 00:11:46,566

the same way and doing

337

00:11:46,566 --> 00:11:47,833

all the same things that she had done

338

00:11:47,833 --> 00:11:48,366

for her financial coaching

339

00:11:49,133 --> 00:11:49,500

so she knew how to grow a business

340

00:11:51,433 --> 00:11:53,033

but it all felt really huge and intimidating and like

341

00:11:54,766 --> 00:11:55,966

it was gonna be difficult

342

00:11:56,433 --> 00:11:58,866

so we leaned into okay so what's your favorite self

343

00:11:58,866 --> 00:12:01,066

you know we do some work on that and I said

344

00:12:01,066 --> 00:12:04,033

so what would your favorite self do today

345

00:12:04,033 --> 00:12:06,133

if she was growing this business

346

00:12:06,133 --> 00:12:07,266

and she's like oh

347

00:12:07,266 --> 00:12:10,366

I'm just gonna talk to my mom friends like okay

348

00:12:10,466 --> 00:12:13,166

so does that feel now like it's big and overwhelming

349

00:12:13,166 --> 00:12:14,200

and it's gonna be difficult

350

00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:15,766

and she said oh my God no

351

00:12:15,766 --> 00:12:18,033

she's like I can't actually wait to get off this call

352

00:12:18,333 --> 00:12:19,733

and go and talk to them like

353

00:12:19,733 --> 00:12:21,466

now all of a sudden

354

00:12:21,566 --> 00:12:23,400

I know exactly what my messaging is

355

00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,266

like she wanted to hone it a little bit

356

00:12:25,266 --> 00:12:26,733

she said but I've got my messaging

357

00:12:26,733 --> 00:12:28,400

I know what offer I'm gonna put out

358

00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,766

like all the stuff that she had been sitting there

359

00:12:30,766 --> 00:12:33,900

trying to think into existence

360

00:12:34,133 --> 00:12:36,800

just sort of magically appeared right

361

00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:38,033

it's not magically appeared

362

00:12:38,033 --> 00:12:38,866

but she

363

00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:40,866

removed the resistance that was

364

00:12:40,866 --> 00:12:42,866

telling her that it was going to be hard

365

00:12:43,033 --> 00:12:46,033

saw an easy path that felt really good for her

366

00:12:46,033 --> 00:12:47,266

and she said you know

367

00:12:47,266 --> 00:12:48,666

almost immediately oh my god

368

00:12:48,666 --> 00:12:50,566

I know exactly who I need to talk to

369

00:12:50,633 --> 00:12:52,200

I have this person who does this

370

00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,066

and we can run this little local event

371

00:12:54,066 --> 00:12:55,233

and it's going to be great

372

00:12:55,233 --> 00:12:56,866

so that I don't need to be

373

00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:58,966

you know having this huge business with it

374

00:12:58,966 --> 00:13:00,433

but I get to make the impact

375

00:13:00,433 --> 00:13:02,166

that I want to make with my people

376

00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,033

and all I need to do is call up my friends

377

00:13:05,500 --> 00:13:07,466

the version of the you that feels most natural

378

00:13:07,466 --> 00:13:08,000

and you know

379

00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:09,000

I agree Genie that

380

00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,533

you know uh

381

00:13:10,766 --> 00:13:11,900

authenticity

382

00:13:12,033 --> 00:13:15,133

and being your authentic self is a little overused

383

00:13:15,133 --> 00:13:17,333

and I think part of why it's overused is

384

00:13:17,333 --> 00:13:20,166

because we don't necessarily get into what that root is

385

00:13:20,166 --> 00:13:20,633

of okay

386

00:13:20,633 --> 00:13:20,966

so what is your authentic self

387

00:13:22,133 --> 00:13:24,200

and so a lot of people can hear that

388

00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:25,533

show up authentically think yeah

389

00:13:25,533 --> 00:13:27,500

but what the hell does that mean

390

00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:28,633

and because we've got

391

00:13:28,633 --> 00:13:30,733

so much other stuff that we're carrying with us

392

00:13:31,166 --> 00:13:31,733

yeah yeah

393

00:13:31,733 --> 00:13:34,033

that's totally true I love remove the resistance

394

00:13:34,033 --> 00:13:34,466

I think that's

395

00:13:34,466 --> 00:13:36,233

that's really so important and such a key

396

00:13:36,233 --> 00:13:36,933

and it's funny

397

00:13:36,933 --> 00:13:38,133

because I was clicking through the channels

398

00:13:38,133 --> 00:13:40,533

the other day and there was a program on

399

00:13:40,533 --> 00:13:42,366

and it was the two people who hosted like

400

00:13:42,366 --> 00:13:43,866

what not to wear um

401

00:13:43,866 --> 00:13:45,633

but the program was about

402

00:13:45,700 --> 00:13:46,666

bringing people on

403

00:13:46,666 --> 00:13:49,466

and having them dress the way they want to

404

00:13:49,466 --> 00:13:51,200

that way that makes them feel good instead of

405

00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,533

you know what society says is okay for

406

00:13:54,533 --> 00:13:55,966

you know this job or that job

407

00:13:55,966 --> 00:13:58,066

so I thought that was such a great concept that kind of

408

00:13:58,066 --> 00:13:59,866

um mimics what you're talking about

409

00:13:59,866 --> 00:14:00,800

yeah I love that

410

00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,033

and hopefully there's more of this coming in because

411

00:14:03,033 --> 00:14:04,300

you know I think that

412

00:14:04,633 --> 00:14:07,766

you know individuality is super important

413

00:14:07,766 --> 00:14:08,133

I like to

414

00:14:08,133 --> 00:14:10,100

I think of it like we're all part of a tapestry

415

00:14:10,466 --> 00:14:10,800

and if we were all the same color thread

416

00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,533

it would be a really boring tapestry

417

00:14:14,633 --> 00:14:15,466

and so you know

418

00:14:15,466 --> 00:14:17,400

some of us are the little thin gold lines

419

00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:18,766

and some of us are the you know

420

00:14:18,766 --> 00:14:21,833

sturdier darker colors that provide the shadow

421

00:14:21,866 --> 00:14:24,000

and we need all of those

422

00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:26,466

and we need all of us to show up in those

423

00:14:26,466 --> 00:14:27,200

in order to have richness of experience

424

00:14:28,633 --> 00:14:29,433

and you know

425

00:14:29,433 --> 00:14:30,233

to

426

00:14:30,566 --> 00:14:32,566

the experience would just not be very fun

427

00:14:32,566 --> 00:14:35,600

if we were all the same it's funny because I

428

00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:36,666

feel like

429

00:14:36,666 --> 00:14:40,700

you know in the online space especially there is

430

00:14:41,066 --> 00:14:41,900

you know

431

00:14:42,133 --> 00:14:44,600

make a million dollars in 20 minutes by doing this

432

00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:45,766

right there's this like right

433

00:14:45,766 --> 00:14:48,666

there's just so much out there that you know

434

00:14:48,666 --> 00:14:49,166

not not saying

435

00:14:49,166 --> 00:14:51,366

a person can't build a million dollar business quickly

436

00:14:51,366 --> 00:14:53,133

but you're not gonna build it in 20 minutes

437

00:14:53,166 --> 00:14:54,600

and I think what happens is

438

00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,266

it sets a lot of unrealistic expectations

439

00:14:57,933 --> 00:15:00,466

and then they also give them um

440

00:15:00,466 --> 00:15:02,800

things to do that may or may not work for them

441

00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:03,766

like you said

442

00:15:03,766 --> 00:15:05,800

but then it makes people feel like a failure

443

00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,533

when they can't make it work

444

00:15:07,733 --> 00:15:09,866

and we talk a lot about the fact that

445

00:15:09,866 --> 00:15:11,933

in this day and age you know

446

00:15:11,966 --> 00:15:13,633

be having an online business

447

00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:15,800

doesn't necessarily mean that you can't low

448

00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:16,833

locally network and bring in clients

449

00:15:17,533 --> 00:15:18,333

I like to say

450

00:15:18,333 --> 00:15:21,700

there's usually $1 million in most people's backyards

451

00:15:21,866 --> 00:15:22,933

so if your content hasn't taken off

452

00:15:24,333 --> 00:15:26,166

if your community hasn't been built

453

00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,166

and you really want to build your business

454

00:15:28,633 --> 00:15:30,033

maybe get out there and network

455

00:15:30,133 --> 00:15:32,366

see who in your area needs your help and your service

456

00:15:32,366 --> 00:15:34,266

because there are people there who will need it

457

00:15:34,766 --> 00:15:37,333

but what happens is I think we get sold this

458

00:15:37,633 --> 00:15:41,133

you know this lie that you can just sit on your laptop

459

00:15:41,133 --> 00:15:44,166

you know and do these things and make millions

460

00:15:44,333 --> 00:15:45,200

and for some people

461

00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,433

like if you master Google ads or Facebook ads

462

00:15:47,433 --> 00:15:50,166

and that's true you can maybe grow a huge business

463

00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:51,866

a few hours a day on your business on

464

00:15:51,866 --> 00:15:55,533

on your computer because you like nail how to like your

465

00:15:55,533 --> 00:15:58,533

your ads and your service are just so dialed in

466

00:15:58,533 --> 00:16:00,233

but it may take a while to get there

467

00:16:00,233 --> 00:16:01,633

so I love the fact that you're asking

468

00:16:01,633 --> 00:16:03,233

people to look into themselves

469

00:16:03,233 --> 00:16:04,033

and figure out what feels right for them

470

00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,066

and then figuring out ways to make it happen

471

00:16:09,133 --> 00:16:10,133

because again no one's path is exactly the same

472

00:16:11,666 --> 00:16:12,033

and I do know like Genie and I

473

00:16:13,733 --> 00:16:15,100

we took a class um

474

00:16:15,166 --> 00:16:18,166

we bought a course and we joke there's two of us

475

00:16:18,166 --> 00:16:20,233

and it felt like a full time job

476

00:16:20,366 --> 00:16:22,833

so at the end of the day you know

477

00:16:22,833 --> 00:16:24,633

we only have so many hours to learn

478

00:16:24,633 --> 00:16:26,033

and to do those types of things

479

00:16:26,033 --> 00:16:27,700

on top of actually

480

00:16:27,833 --> 00:16:30,166

servicing our clients and building our businesses

481

00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,200

so I think the advice that you're giving

482

00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,800

is really important to tune in to what feels right

483

00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:36,466

and then it's okay

484

00:16:36,466 --> 00:16:37,966

if you don't finish a course or something

485

00:16:37,966 --> 00:16:40,233

if you get halfway through and it's not right

486

00:16:40,366 --> 00:16:42,833

then you learn what you've Learned and you stop

487

00:16:43,100 --> 00:16:44,133

yeah absolutely

488

00:16:44,133 --> 00:16:45,966

I think you hit the nail on the head too with

489

00:16:45,966 --> 00:16:47,900

you know how so many people see all of these big

490

00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:49,833

giant promises of

491

00:16:49,866 --> 00:16:52,266

oh we'll insert you into our system

492

00:16:52,266 --> 00:16:52,833

and so

493

00:16:52,833 --> 00:16:56,366

there's this theory that as soon as you set up online

494

00:16:56,366 --> 00:16:59,033

you're going to have the big fancy lifestyle

495

00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:00,566

I bought into that you know

496

00:17:00,566 --> 00:17:02,566

I was when my job had finished

497

00:17:02,566 --> 00:17:03,433

I was in Bali

498

00:17:03,433 --> 00:17:06,466

and I'm going to be a digital nomad and I'm gonna have

499

00:17:06,466 --> 00:17:06,800

you know

500

00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:07,766

six figures coming in

501

00:17:07,766 --> 00:17:08,066

I'm gonna match my corporate income in no time

502

00:17:11,066 --> 00:17:14,500

and it took me 6 months to get my website set up

503

00:17:15,166 --> 00:17:16,766

cause I had no idea what I was doing

504

00:17:17,933 --> 00:17:18,800

and it was ready

505

00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,133

and then I would change it and it was ready

506

00:17:20,133 --> 00:17:22,100

and I would change it and then I finally

507

00:17:22,100 --> 00:17:23,000

I launched it I'm like

508

00:17:23,066 --> 00:17:24,133

OK this is it

509

00:17:24,133 --> 00:17:29,400

business is open and my mom looked at my website like

510

00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:30,233

Yay

511

00:17:30,733 --> 00:17:31,966

and it was tough because too

512

00:17:31,966 --> 00:17:34,000

I was there and there were other people that

513

00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:35,933

were showing that they were having these huge

514

00:17:35,933 --> 00:17:37,000

successful businesses and

515

00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:37,233

you know

516

00:17:37,233 --> 00:17:39,833

they're on on their social media feeds of course

517

00:17:39,833 --> 00:17:40,066

you know

518

00:17:40,066 --> 00:17:43,133

they're sipping Mai Tais and and working with clients

519

00:17:43,133 --> 00:17:45,000

and I couldn't even find an internet connection

520

00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:46,566

that was stable enough to host a call

521

00:17:46,566 --> 00:17:49,166

I was like what am I doing wrong

522

00:17:49,366 --> 00:17:51,733

and what I didn't take into account is one

523

00:17:51,733 --> 00:17:51,966

what their existing network might have already been

524

00:17:54,133 --> 00:17:56,133

you know they might already have had clients

525

00:17:56,133 --> 00:17:58,533

that might not have been their sole source of income

526

00:17:58,766 --> 00:18:01,466

so many other things that were going on and

527

00:18:01,466 --> 00:18:02,266

you know

528

00:18:02,266 --> 00:18:04,266

any strategy will work

529

00:18:04,266 --> 00:18:08,833

but what we often aren't being shown is what

530

00:18:08,866 --> 00:18:10,633

the most successful people who are selling

531

00:18:10,633 --> 00:18:12,566

that they've got something that they're trying to sell

532

00:18:12,566 --> 00:18:14,433

so they're not going to show you the friction points

533

00:18:14,433 --> 00:18:16,500

they're only going to show you the easy things

534

00:18:18,166 --> 00:18:21,233

which isn't real life um

535

00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:22,933

and also you know

536

00:18:22,933 --> 00:18:25,666

we're not then necessarily taking into account like

537

00:18:25,666 --> 00:18:28,066

what are they already bringing to the table

538

00:18:28,066 --> 00:18:28,400

you know

539

00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,066

do they already have a really large existing network

540

00:18:31,466 --> 00:18:31,633

you know

541

00:18:31,766 --> 00:18:33,666

reach out to people that you know

542

00:18:34,366 --> 00:18:35,000

you know well

543

00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,466

if you don't have a very big network of people that are

544

00:18:37,466 --> 00:18:38,800

your dream client

545

00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,133

it might take you a little bit longer to build

546

00:18:41,133 --> 00:18:42,433

that network up

547

00:18:42,433 --> 00:18:44,966

and it's not to say that it's not going to work

548

00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,866

but also that you know I think

549

00:18:47,866 --> 00:18:50,033

you know we can get stuck in this whole cost fallacy

550

00:18:50,033 --> 00:18:51,266

and we keep plotting along

551

00:18:51,266 --> 00:18:54,066

doing something for a little bit too long and

552

00:18:54,066 --> 00:18:56,166

and we have to get really honest with ourselves

553

00:18:56,166 --> 00:18:56,966

and say okay

554

00:18:56,966 --> 00:18:58,966

is this working or is it not

555

00:18:58,966 --> 00:19:03,866

you know we have to take time to have CEO days

556

00:19:03,866 --> 00:19:05,833

you know to come out of our business

557

00:19:05,833 --> 00:19:07,666

and look at what's really happening

558

00:19:07,666 --> 00:19:11,033

which can be hard when often for solo preneurs um

559

00:19:11,033 --> 00:19:12,666

because there's not another sounding board

560

00:19:12,666 --> 00:19:14,933

there's not another person that's there um

561

00:19:14,933 --> 00:19:16,966

and so we have to say OK

562

00:19:17,466 --> 00:19:19,800

maybe it doesn't feel like I hit that milestone

563

00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:21,966

that so and so promised I was going to hit

564

00:19:21,966 --> 00:19:23,066

but what have I done

565

00:19:23,066 --> 00:19:25,500

what are the success points that I've had along the way

566

00:19:25,666 --> 00:19:28,266

and how can I grow on those

567

00:19:29,033 --> 00:19:32,233

and maybe that's where the secret sauce is instead of

568

00:19:32,233 --> 00:19:32,800

you know how can I improve this tiny

569

00:19:34,166 --> 00:19:35,766

little thing that's not working

570

00:19:35,833 --> 00:19:38,200

and hope for the best that that's what

571

00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:39,333

you know the magic thing

572

00:19:39,333 --> 00:19:40,033

the magic bullet

573

00:19:40,033 --> 00:19:42,966

that's going to turn everything around overnight

574

00:19:43,033 --> 00:19:46,266

what is already working and how can I go bigger on that

575

00:19:46,266 --> 00:19:48,133

because that's also removing friction

576

00:19:48,133 --> 00:19:49,400

that's making things easier

577

00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:51,333

so if it's more comfortable to get out and network

578

00:19:51,333 --> 00:19:52,666

and talk to people and

579

00:19:52,666 --> 00:19:52,933

you know

580

00:19:52,933 --> 00:19:54,733

just tell people in the coffee shop what you do

581

00:19:54,733 --> 00:19:56,766

and get curious and ask questions

582

00:19:57,033 --> 00:19:57,533

and you know

583

00:19:57,533 --> 00:19:58,333

it's as

584

00:19:58,333 --> 00:20:00,600

important to get curious about who's in your network

585

00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,300

as it is to get curious about

586

00:20:02,300 --> 00:20:04,766

what's happening with you and how

587

00:20:05,166 --> 00:20:07,333

our resistance is

588

00:20:07,333 --> 00:20:10,066

sometimes creating that feeling of sandpaper

589

00:20:10,866 --> 00:20:11,666

and I think you know

590

00:20:11,666 --> 00:20:13,266

there's there's a whole lot of different ways

591

00:20:13,266 --> 00:20:14,766

that we can do that you know

592

00:20:14,766 --> 00:20:16,333

and and making sure that

593

00:20:16,533 --> 00:20:18,166

we're not just leading

594

00:20:18,166 --> 00:20:20,066

with the emotional side of our business

595

00:20:20,066 --> 00:20:21,633

we're also looking at the

596

00:20:21,633 --> 00:20:24,233

the more tangible and analytical side

597

00:20:24,233 --> 00:20:25,466

because we're business owners

598

00:20:25,466 --> 00:20:28,500

and we're not going to get to that next level

599

00:20:29,266 --> 00:20:33,266

if we're not making sound business decisions in it

600

00:20:33,266 --> 00:20:34,266

yeah it's interesting

601

00:20:34,266 --> 00:20:36,600

you know we specialize in outsourcing

602

00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,633

and the first thing Genie outsourced many years ago

603

00:20:38,633 --> 00:20:40,700

when she started her marketing agency

604

00:20:40,833 --> 00:20:44,266

was her bookkeeping and so not long ago

605

00:20:44,266 --> 00:20:45,133

we rolled out

606

00:20:45,133 --> 00:20:46,166

a bookkeeping program

607

00:20:46,166 --> 00:20:48,433

with virtual bookkeepers overseas

608

00:20:48,766 --> 00:20:51,566

and it is amazing that one of the things

609

00:20:51,566 --> 00:20:53,033

I think that drains our energy

610

00:20:53,033 --> 00:20:55,366

and causes us to not have clarity

611

00:20:55,433 --> 00:20:56,533

is the fact that we try

612

00:20:56,533 --> 00:20:58,333

doing things that we really hate doing

613

00:20:58,333 --> 00:20:59,866

and that we're not good at right

614

00:20:59,933 --> 00:21:01,966

so like Gina always like to say

615

00:21:01,966 --> 00:21:04,366

if you can hand something off

616

00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:04,666

you know

617

00:21:04,766 --> 00:21:06,366

for six to 10 bucks an hour

618

00:21:06,566 --> 00:21:08,866

why would you keep doing it

619

00:21:08,866 --> 00:21:10,333

and there's so much freedom

620

00:21:10,333 --> 00:21:11,433

and understanding that you

621

00:21:11,433 --> 00:21:13,200

don't have to be perfect at everything

622

00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:14,800

and you don't have to be able to do everything

623

00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:15,833

in your business

624

00:21:16,166 --> 00:21:17,466

that you deserve to have support in your business

625

00:21:18,900 --> 00:21:20,033

and Gini I think for you

626

00:21:20,033 --> 00:21:21,066

like you really express like

627

00:21:21,066 --> 00:21:22,633

what a game changer that was for you

628

00:21:22,633 --> 00:21:25,133

on your mental health and your creativity

629

00:21:25,166 --> 00:21:26,133

yeah absolutely

630

00:21:26,133 --> 00:21:27,633

yeah it was um

631

00:21:27,933 --> 00:21:30,433

it was the guilt of coming in my office every day

632

00:21:30,433 --> 00:21:32,433

and seeing a stack of receipts

633

00:21:32,433 --> 00:21:33,566

knowing that you know

634

00:21:33,566 --> 00:21:34,766

I should be inputting these

635

00:21:34,766 --> 00:21:37,233

it's not hard it's not rocket science

636

00:21:37,233 --> 00:21:39,666

but I don't wanna do it but it was

637

00:21:39,666 --> 00:21:40,966

you know daily

638

00:21:40,966 --> 00:21:41,866

and then um

639

00:21:41,866 --> 00:21:43,400

you know thinking of all these other things

640

00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,433

bookkeeping wise that I wasn't getting done

641

00:21:45,433 --> 00:21:46,766

you know reviewing my numbers

642

00:21:46,766 --> 00:21:49,866

that type of thing so once I did hand that off

643

00:21:49,866 --> 00:21:50,533

it was like

644

00:21:50,533 --> 00:21:53,533

this huge burden had been lifted off my shoulders

645

00:21:53,533 --> 00:21:54,633

and I was like

646

00:21:55,266 --> 00:21:56,633

I feel free

647

00:21:56,633 --> 00:21:58,666

like I felt like I could be the creative person that I

648

00:22:00,133 --> 00:22:01,266

that I loved being and I could be more

649

00:22:02,533 --> 00:22:03,833

you know of me

650

00:22:03,833 --> 00:22:06,000

and that was just something I guess I

651

00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,166

I never even realized it until

652

00:22:08,166 --> 00:22:12,166

you know I did outsource it and then it was lovely

653

00:22:12,266 --> 00:22:12,666

but you know

654

00:22:12,666 --> 00:22:13,866

it's so true that you know

655

00:22:13,866 --> 00:22:15,733

and and the mental bandwidth

656

00:22:15,733 --> 00:22:19,000

and the amount of energy that goes into oh

657

00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:20,466

I should do this I should do that

658

00:22:20,466 --> 00:22:22,800

I need to be doing this I need to be doing that

659

00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:23,333

means that

660

00:22:23,333 --> 00:22:25,133

you don't have the energy to show up

661

00:22:25,133 --> 00:22:26,733

on the things that you actually

662

00:22:26,733 --> 00:22:28,333

love to do

663

00:22:28,333 --> 00:22:29,600

and so you know

664

00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:30,800

it's figuring out you know

665

00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,133

and you found a great solution for you

666

00:22:33,133 --> 00:22:33,400

and so

667

00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,766

that's what I really enjoy helping my clients with is

668

00:22:35,766 --> 00:22:37,033

okay so where's the friction point

669

00:22:37,033 --> 00:22:38,500

how can we solve that what's the best solution for you

670

00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:41,766

and in solving that

671

00:22:41,766 --> 00:22:43,400

one of the things I've been working with a little bit

672

00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:43,900

is you know

673

00:22:43,900 --> 00:22:44,633

human design we're all wired differently

674

00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:46,900

you know like

675

00:22:47,033 --> 00:22:49,200

not all of us show up with

676

00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:50,933

the exact same skills and gifts

677

00:22:50,933 --> 00:22:51,133

and so why not rely on each other in different ways

678

00:22:54,733 --> 00:22:57,433

to be able to get us that support that we need

679

00:22:57,633 --> 00:22:59,266

I love that I love that

680

00:22:59,266 --> 00:23:00,833

so it sounds like

681

00:23:00,833 --> 00:23:02,633

you have so many things to offer

682

00:23:02,633 --> 00:23:04,566

for so many different types of businesses

683

00:23:04,566 --> 00:23:05,200

so Kristen

684

00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,033

tell us a little bit about if people are listening and

685

00:23:08,033 --> 00:23:09,400

um wondering wow

686

00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:10,833

I really wanna talk to her

687

00:23:10,833 --> 00:23:12,166

and maybe wanna work with her

688

00:23:12,166 --> 00:23:14,333

what's the best way for them to reach out to you

689

00:23:14,766 --> 00:23:17,833

so best way to reach out right now is on Instagram

690

00:23:18,066 --> 00:23:20,866

or they can drop me an email at Kristen

691

00:23:20,866 --> 00:23:22,966

at your compass within dot co

692

00:23:25,033 --> 00:23:27,566

and I will open up a conversation

693

00:23:27,566 --> 00:23:29,166

and there's a whole lot of freebies

694

00:23:29,166 --> 00:23:30,466

and low cost ways of you know

695

00:23:30,466 --> 00:23:33,333

testing out the work that I do on my Instagram

696

00:23:33,333 --> 00:23:34,466

and the links at the top

697

00:23:34,466 --> 00:23:37,833

my website is in design cause I'm changing my branding

698

00:23:38,166 --> 00:23:38,866

um

699

00:23:38,866 --> 00:23:41,366

hopefully that's up and running by the time we're live

700

00:23:41,366 --> 00:23:43,000

but it might not be still

701

00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:44,566

so Instagram is the best

702

00:23:44,566 --> 00:23:46,033

and then we just have a conversation

703

00:23:46,033 --> 00:23:47,466

see what's the best way to move forward

704

00:23:47,466 --> 00:23:49,400

and what support somebody's looking for

705

00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:50,933

and if I'm not the best support

706

00:23:50,933 --> 00:23:52,700

then I might know somebody who is

707

00:23:53,166 --> 00:23:55,533

this has been such a delight and um

708

00:23:55,533 --> 00:23:57,200

I just love everything that you're doing

709

00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:58,466
