The #1 reason why people hire you.

The #1 reason why people hire you.

“Why would anyone want to hire me? There are so many others in my industry. I just feel like I don’t compare.”“You’re right,” I said.Her mouth dropped open. I don’t think my client was expecting me to agree with her, when she was so used to me challenging her excuses.“Your industry is rapidly growing,” I continued, ”And, yes, there are definitely people way ahead of you, making more money, with larger followings.”“So how do I breakthrough?” she asked. I could feel her frustration through the Zoom screen.“Perhaps that’s the wrong question. Let me ask you this...Why did you hire me?”Without even a pause, “Well, your energy, and your background, and how you’ve helped other people. I just felt like you would GET me.” Discover your energy and tap into your reign. Click to read the full blogspiration.

A Pattern Interrupt for Humanity

I wish I could say that I had the words these past few weeks. A shift has been needed in the world and in ourselves.

COVID gave us an opportunity to reflect on what’s most important to us. For some, it gave us a chance to align and reconnect with our families. For others, it brought into stark contrast our own escapist tactics and feelings that have been repressed or suppressed, waiting to be released “when the kids graduate.”

For some, it gave us a swift kick in the pants to pivot, realign our businesses, shift into miraculous overdrive with our productivity and creativity. And my revolutionaries - Meredith, Stuart, Kala - holy moly how proud I am of you for how you have pivoted and adapted your businesses and entire industries!!!

For others, it realigned TF out of us, to what we want, and to what the future holds for us and our industries. Is it even a business you want to be in? Is it even an industry that’s going to be around in five to ten years?

For myself, these past two months have connected me deeper into my spirituality and my relationship with God. It’s made my life a miracle - living in a land surrounded by surf and butterflies. It’s also brought into a crude light some darker patterns that needed to heal for me.

The Power of Your Queen Team Business Rhapsody

One of my favorite bands of all time is Queen. When we temporarily relocated to Australia, Spike bought me a Freddy Mercury Funko doll (you know those tiny-body, giant-headed, fits in the palm of your hand toys) for my “office” area. Maybe it was the sunny-still vibe of another day in Queensland, or the butterflies flying past my windows, or my run past the building named “Rhapsody” in Surfer’s Paradise that morning, but in a moment of deep introspection, I spoke to my Freddy Funko. Look, I owned my crazy a long time ago, so this is not too out of the ordinary. I was looking for a connection. I believe everything happens FOR a reason, for our greater learning, growth, and evolution. So all of these things, all of these signs, I just could not ignore. “What is it about Freddy Mercury? About Queen? About Rhapsody?” I mused.
