00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:29.320
Hello. Hey, girl. You look fabulous. Oh, what? Your hair looks extra fabulous and you got

2
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:37.320
your hoops. Oh, thank you. I was just doing stuff all morning. I'm in Chicago. I know.

3
00:00:37.320 --> 00:00:50.040
How's it going? It's going. Yeah. Uh huh. It's going. I'll ask more later. Just can't

4
00:00:50.040 --> 00:00:56.160
believe I said yes to this. I'm just working on setting up the live stream and putting

5
00:00:56.160 --> 00:01:10.800
out a notification. Is anyone in the waiting room? Yeah. OK, cool. That's good. I'm a little

6
00:01:10.800 --> 00:01:30.880
behind today. It's fine. You're doing great. Yeah, I'm just a very selfish person. And

7
00:01:30.880 --> 00:01:38.920
being single, I really can be. Yeah. This is like selfless stuff out here. Good for

8
00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:45.120
you. Stepping in. I'm stepping in. I'm learning. I'm growing. I'm relying on Jesus. You are.

9
00:01:45.120 --> 00:02:14.840
I think that's great. Uh huh. It really is. I was keeping my come in at one point, so

10
00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:24.680
I'll just mute myself for a second, talk to her. OK. Should be set up. You got your little

11
00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:34.920
smoothie. Nice. I don't know why it has it sometimes. What did it do? Where like I'm

12
00:02:34.920 --> 00:02:56.000
signed out of the sign in. I know that happens sometimes. That was my password. Perfect. Oh,

13
00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:17.960
great. I'm going to let people in. OK. Hello, everybody. Hello, hello. Come on in. I'm just

14
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:32.640
finishing up, making sure our live stream is going. How are you ladies doing today? I'm doing

15
00:03:32.640 --> 00:03:40.400
all right. How about you? Doing all right. I'm in Chicago right now for a conference. So I'm

16
00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:46.280
excited. A conference that you're presenting at or a conference you're attending? Um, actually,

17
00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:56.120
neither. Do you remember Jenna from Rainmakers? Yeah. He was in a wheelchair. Oh, that Jenna. I

18
00:03:56.120 --> 00:04:02.760
thought you meant the one that lives in Michigan, who's doing coaching now. OK, the one in a

19
00:04:02.760 --> 00:04:10.520
wheelchair. She asked me to help her attend this conference and like help her out and be. Yeah. So

20
00:04:10.520 --> 00:04:15.120
I said, yes. So there's actually going to be some really like guess who I'm going to hear speak,

21
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:30.880
ladies. Dr. Benjamin Hardy. Oh, wow. He's going to be here. Chris Voss, Gordon West, a couple

22
00:04:30.880 --> 00:04:39.360
other powerful women entrepreneurs. So it'll be fun. How's everyone else doing? Hi, Sienna. Hi,

23
00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:54.400
Carrie. Hi, Margo. How are y'all doing? Doing good. Testing my Internet. Yay. Well, go ahead,

24
00:04:54.400 --> 00:04:58.480
Gabby. I was going to say, how'd everyone do on reading or listening to their book?

25
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:07.280
So I have a question about that. I actually have the physical book. So I was very confused by your layout

26
00:05:07.280 --> 00:05:08.560
I didn't know how far to read

27
00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:13.320
I don't know if maybe it's laid out different on like audio as opposed to the physical book

28
00:05:13.320 --> 00:05:16.340
But it wasn't labeled that way. So I didn't know how far to read

29
00:05:16.980 --> 00:05:18.680
okay, so

30
00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:21.480
The same thing happened to me too when I went to go read

31
00:05:21.760 --> 00:05:27.600
We we used a chat GPT to help us out and I just assumed that the sections were numbered

32
00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:31.360
But I guess that they were they're not numbered

33
00:05:31.880 --> 00:05:38.120
No, it's just like but I guess it's like part one and then it's a chapter under each part

34
00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:44.560
So I saw like the little voices part and I read a little bit past that because I wasn't sure how far

35
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:47.560
Not it shouldn't have been more than 50 pages

36
00:05:48.280 --> 00:05:49.320
Okay

37
00:05:49.320 --> 00:05:54.320
So what I'm gonna do is go back through that and tidy it up cuz yeah

38
00:05:54.320 --> 00:06:01.800
I don't know why I tried did that but and I didn't double-check it. So that's on me. Whatever you did was enough. So yeah

39
00:06:04.880 --> 00:06:10.800
Okay, so but mainly it's just like some of them, you know the mindset so what I'll do is I'll just go over a quick little

40
00:06:12.440 --> 00:06:14.680
Recap and then I'd love to hear your thoughts

41
00:06:15.880 --> 00:06:20.400
She talked about how success is not an accident. It's something you create on purpose

42
00:06:20.720 --> 00:06:26.200
Taking small steps consistently is a huge part to success

43
00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:32.480
She said oh she talked about the what if like that phrase how?

44
00:06:33.000 --> 00:06:39.800
Paralyzing that just those two words together can be you know, we talked about we talked a lot about this in mindset, right?

45
00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:42.880
What if it doesn't work? What if it what if it fails?

46
00:06:42.880 --> 00:06:47.360
What if it you know, and then the opposite of that is what if it works? What if it's successful, right?

47
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:52.720
And then talked about the three C's clarity confidence and competence

48
00:06:54.120 --> 00:07:00.880
Which is so funny because I led an entire call on those three C's before so I was like, okay

49
00:07:00.880 --> 00:07:05.960
We're aligned. We're all we're all reading the same stuff. We're right

50
00:07:05.960 --> 00:07:10.600
We're stepping into the mindset of how to be clear confident and incompetent

51
00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:15.280
Oh, there was this one phrase from one of the chapters

52
00:07:15.280 --> 00:07:21.360
Or yeah chapters that said when you're destined for greatness your own potential haunts you

53
00:07:21.880 --> 00:07:25.640
It keeps you up at night and won't stop until you succeed. I

54
00:07:26.280 --> 00:07:34.400
Really thought that was a powerful quote for us and then oh and she talked about how when she was stuck at one point

55
00:07:34.400 --> 00:07:36.400
of her life

56
00:07:36.440 --> 00:07:40.920
She said the reason she didn't have a clue is because she was doing nothing and

57
00:07:41.320 --> 00:07:46.280
Until you get moving you can't get unstuck. So a lot of getting out of Stuckville is

58
00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:53.240
Doing something doing something different changing something right? She talked about the power of movement and

59
00:07:53.960 --> 00:07:58.280
And I and one thing I want to say is I I've never read her stuff before

60
00:07:58.280 --> 00:08:00.280
I don't know if any of you guys have but I

61
00:08:00.280 --> 00:08:02.680
Really? I feel like we would all just vibe with her

62
00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:07.160
I feel like she would be in our community like she would be on our zoom call. I really like

63
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:13.080
How she's personable and also hey, I've been through this and this is what I've learned and this is where I'm at

64
00:08:13.080 --> 00:08:16.600
So and I like how she talked with my about mindset like how that's

65
00:08:16.920 --> 00:08:22.680
The very first part of her book and as we see this over and over a lot of success comes from the way that

66
00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:28.920
You think right? So so yeah, anybody want to share something that really stuck out to you something?

67
00:08:29.640 --> 00:08:31.640
You found valuable

68
00:08:31.800 --> 00:08:33.799
The floor is open

69
00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:36.600
The floor is open

70
00:08:40.600 --> 00:08:42.600
I personally like the

71
00:08:42.740 --> 00:08:44.920
Successes like especially something you do on purpose

72
00:08:45.640 --> 00:08:50.280
I think a lot of times when we're feeling discouraged and we start

73
00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:54.840
Seeing everybody else do better than us. It's like, oh they just got lucky

74
00:08:55.640 --> 00:09:01.480
Or they just had something that the stars aligned for them. The stars are not aligning for us

75
00:09:02.440 --> 00:09:05.640
And it's easy it's easier to think that

76
00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:08.120
um

77
00:09:08.120 --> 00:09:10.120
Because it takes off

78
00:09:11.160 --> 00:09:16.440
Like it removes your responsibility from the equation. Um, and it's not to say that

79
00:09:17.640 --> 00:09:21.000
I don't want to like downplay like the hard stuff because it is hard but it

80
00:09:23.800 --> 00:09:26.360
It everybody each person's journey

81
00:09:27.080 --> 00:09:29.800
has a certain amount of like

82
00:09:30.520 --> 00:09:35.480
Hardship or like, you know overcoming the obstacles or troubleshooting all that

83
00:09:36.120 --> 00:09:37.400
and

84
00:09:37.400 --> 00:09:41.240
No one's really having like accidental success. I feel like that's really

85
00:09:44.600 --> 00:09:46.760
But I like that part probably the most

86
00:09:48.600 --> 00:09:53.480
And yeah, we rarely see that part like it's true I think I mean, I know we've all talked about this of

87
00:09:54.280 --> 00:09:58.840
You know, a lot of times you're just seeing the highlights from people you're seeing the success especially on you know

88
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:00.920
social media or

89
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.720
If someone's on a podcast, you're just getting a very short and condensed version of the

90
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:05.720
story.

91
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:11.000
But we're not able to see all the times that they had to make an intentional decision,

92
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:15.080
all those little tiny decisions, big decisions along the way that built up to whatever their

93
00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:19.600
success was, whatever their story is.

94
00:10:19.600 --> 00:10:23.600
And yeah, success is really is our responsibility.

95
00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:33.740
One thing that I'm liking so far about this book is there's a lot of parallels between,

96
00:10:33.740 --> 00:10:39.400
you know, what Danielle says on Mindset Monday, what other books we've read in the past have

97
00:10:39.400 --> 00:10:48.400
said, and a lot of marketing that you see on, you know, social media and the TV or whatever,

98
00:10:48.400 --> 00:10:53.920
this is just like the secrets that wealthy people know, or the secrets to success.

99
00:10:53.920 --> 00:10:57.960
And I think that's like what I'm finding more and more is there's actually no secret.

100
00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:00.280
There's like, everybody kind of already knows it.

101
00:11:00.280 --> 00:11:01.960
It's all written in the book.

102
00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:05.160
And it's like, actually just got to do what they're saying.

103
00:11:05.160 --> 00:11:10.320
And it's kind of refreshing to like, read these books and be like, okay, there's actually

104
00:11:10.320 --> 00:11:11.320
nothing new here.

105
00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:13.760
They've just rephrased it.

106
00:11:13.760 --> 00:11:18.360
And it's really nice to hear how their perspective is and how they've implemented it for themselves.

107
00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:25.120
And how it's like playing out in this version of the telling of it.

108
00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:29.440
But the reality is like, the tools are all in my toolbox.

109
00:11:29.440 --> 00:11:35.800
Now I just got to take out the tools one at a time, whenever the situation calls for it.

110
00:11:35.800 --> 00:11:37.880
Yeah.

111
00:11:37.880 --> 00:11:42.680
I love that you just said that, Chrissy, because I was teaching in another community yesterday

112
00:11:42.680 --> 00:11:43.680
a mindset call.

113
00:11:43.680 --> 00:11:46.880
And I was like, listen, what I'm about to say is not new.

114
00:11:46.880 --> 00:11:48.800
You've probably heard it before.

115
00:11:48.800 --> 00:11:51.600
There's nothing new under the sun as it is.

116
00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:55.760
And yet, our brains need to hear things seven times plus.

117
00:11:55.760 --> 00:11:59.880
And then not only do we need to hear it again, but then like, go do something.

118
00:11:59.880 --> 00:12:01.800
Like you said, like take the tool.

119
00:12:01.800 --> 00:12:05.480
The tools are only as good as the person who's going to use them, right?

120
00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:09.800
Like take the tool out and actually like build something with it, right?

121
00:12:09.800 --> 00:12:13.720
And like, and for those of you who weren't on the call with Elliot, who's my friend,

122
00:12:14.120 --> 00:12:16.040
his company hit a billion.

123
00:12:16.040 --> 00:12:21.320
You know, he basically, his biggest thing was keep going until you get what you want.

124
00:12:21.320 --> 00:12:23.000
Just like not quitting.

125
00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:25.120
You know, and I think she talked about this too in the book.

126
00:12:25.120 --> 00:12:27.160
She was like, there were moments where I felt like it.

127
00:12:27.160 --> 00:12:29.600
There were moments when I was stagnant.

128
00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:33.680
But at the end of the day, in her 10 plus year journey, she just never, she never actually

129
00:12:33.680 --> 00:12:35.160
gave up.

130
00:12:35.160 --> 00:12:40.280
And so I actually found some solace because I'm feeling a little stuck personally.

131
00:12:40.280 --> 00:12:45.040
I'm trying things right now myself, and it's like easy to get stuck in that.

132
00:12:45.040 --> 00:12:47.400
So it was just a good reminder to zoom out and be like, wait a minute.

133
00:12:47.400 --> 00:12:48.400
I'm not quitting.

134
00:12:48.400 --> 00:12:54.800
There's a difference between taking a break or doing some, trying something new or, or

135
00:12:54.800 --> 00:12:59.840
taking a rest for a moment or, you know, offering something else.

136
00:12:59.840 --> 00:13:01.760
So yeah, I like that.

137
00:13:01.760 --> 00:13:08.000
Who else had something?

138
00:13:08.000 --> 00:13:09.920
I I'll second what Christy said.

139
00:13:10.560 --> 00:13:11.560
I agree.

140
00:13:11.560 --> 00:13:12.560
I just like how it's all intertwined.

141
00:13:12.560 --> 00:13:17.280
Like it ties into a little, it has a little bit of the same who moved my cheese and then

142
00:13:17.280 --> 00:13:22.480
just the mindset and the what if was really powerful.

143
00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:28.200
Like just putting those two words together, what they sound separate and then you put

144
00:13:28.200 --> 00:13:33.760
them together and it's like, what if, but why do we always take it to the negative instead

145
00:13:33.760 --> 00:13:39.440
of, so when she had like the, what if I fail quote, but Oh, but what if you fly, you know

146
00:13:39.960 --> 00:13:40.960
what I mean?

147
00:13:40.960 --> 00:13:42.720
It was like, I've, you've heard, I've heard it a million times.

148
00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:47.840
And, but why do we always go to what if I feel we always go to the negative instead

149
00:13:47.840 --> 00:13:48.840
of the positive.

150
00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:52.440
So I thought that was really powerful and it was just good to hear everything all over

151
00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:53.440
again.

152
00:13:53.440 --> 00:13:58.560
I liked the part two where she talked about like being her, like writing her book and

153
00:13:58.560 --> 00:14:01.680
being stuck, but it still haunted her because it was meant to be.

154
00:14:01.680 --> 00:14:07.160
And she just wasn't taking the action.

155
00:14:07.160 --> 00:14:13.080
What did you guys think about the, the fact that she gave herself a challenge early on

156
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:18.320
when she was like miserable, feeling kind of lost?

157
00:14:18.320 --> 00:14:24.280
What did you think about that idea of giving yourself a challenge?

158
00:14:24.280 --> 00:14:40.480
Has anybody ever thought to give themselves a challenge?

159
00:14:40.480 --> 00:14:43.520
I think I need them to help motivate me.

160
00:14:43.520 --> 00:14:44.520
Yeah.

161
00:14:44.520 --> 00:14:49.960
Didn't we have a last couple of weeks ago in this call?

162
00:14:49.960 --> 00:14:52.360
Say that again, Sian.

163
00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:58.120
Didn't we have a challenge like that a couple of weeks ago in this call, the next 30 days?

164
00:14:58.120 --> 00:15:00.000
I haven't read the book yet, but I downloaded it.

165
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:06.440
that I have it. Um, did we? $1,000 in 30 days? Oh, yeah.

166
00:15:06.960 --> 00:15:09.960
Yeah, I presented that more as like a hypothetical question,

167
00:15:09.960 --> 00:15:13.280
not an actual challenge. But you have taken it seriously,

168
00:15:13.280 --> 00:15:15.240
actually, which has been great. I don't know if you guys

169
00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:18.880
realize this, but Sian has taken that on as her challenge over

170
00:15:18.880 --> 00:15:19.760
the last couple weeks.

171
00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:26.080
Can I share what happened? Because the $1,000 was supposed

172
00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:30.400
to like pay for my rest, you know, paying for my program. And

173
00:15:30.400 --> 00:15:33.480
so I was making coffee the other day, I'm like, I have money that

174
00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:37.400
my mom gave me for my inheritance that's in a VIP. And

175
00:15:37.400 --> 00:15:43.160
I'm like, I'm just gonna get out of scarcity, borrow for myself,

176
00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:48.960
and and pay most of my program, which I did. And it felt good.

177
00:15:48.960 --> 00:15:51.000
And it got me out of scarcity, because now I don't have to,

178
00:15:51.000 --> 00:15:54.320
like, I'm still in action. I am in action and a lot of different

179
00:15:54.320 --> 00:15:58.840
things in my life. And I'm figuring out my business. But I

180
00:15:58.840 --> 00:16:02.080
don't have to be in scarcity about it. Like, I don't have to

181
00:16:02.080 --> 00:16:07.680
do things that I don't want to do just to raise some cash. So

182
00:16:07.720 --> 00:16:10.200
yeah, I'm still on that challenge. But I'm like, I made

183
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:11.720
$2,000 already.

184
00:16:13.200 --> 00:16:16.840
Yeah, that's awesome. I love that the scarcity piece for you

185
00:16:16.840 --> 00:16:19.760
because you said like, I don't have to do random things that I

186
00:16:19.760 --> 00:16:21.960
don't want to do for cash. When we start getting into that

187
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:25.360
scarcity mindset, we start going into this like, drastic

188
00:16:25.360 --> 00:16:27.840
rabbit hole, like I could do this, I could do this. And not

189
00:16:27.840 --> 00:16:30.600
that those things are always bad, or you shouldn't do or

190
00:16:30.600 --> 00:16:33.880
whatever. But a lot of times, it's what causes us to have

191
00:16:33.880 --> 00:16:37.720
like misaligned action that distracts us from where we

192
00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:41.320
really want to be. And just take this further away. And then we

193
00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:44.240
take the evidence of like, oh, this hasn't worked out. Now

194
00:16:44.240 --> 00:16:47.760
we're going to keep going over here with the distraction. Yeah,

195
00:16:47.760 --> 00:16:48.600
that's really awesome.

196
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:55.200
I remember, so I want to share like a full story about a

197
00:16:55.200 --> 00:17:01.560
challenge. So I was listening to a mentor. This was a few years

198
00:17:01.560 --> 00:17:07.599
ago. And this was when I was building like my network

199
00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:12.359
marketing business a lot more. And she talked about she had

200
00:17:12.359 --> 00:17:16.079
built up really fast, not really fast, but she had built up

201
00:17:16.079 --> 00:17:19.520
really strong momentum and had moved pretty quickly in her

202
00:17:19.520 --> 00:17:23.359
business. You know, being a top performer and stuff like that,

203
00:17:23.400 --> 00:17:26.920
and had started to go through a season where it started to drop

204
00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:30.600
off. And she was going to be losing, you know, some of the

205
00:17:30.600 --> 00:17:33.080
perks and cash and things that you know, she was getting

206
00:17:33.080 --> 00:17:36.400
regularly and was starting to be frantic and panic about it and

207
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:40.640
like, not sure. And she gave herself a challenge. What

208
00:17:40.640 --> 00:17:45.800
happened was she gave herself a challenge in January. And what

209
00:17:46.720 --> 00:17:50.120
I loved about what she shared was a lot of things turned

210
00:17:50.120 --> 00:17:52.880
around in her business. But what she shared was that she was a

211
00:17:52.880 --> 00:17:58.480
changed person. Because of that challenge. Because it changed

212
00:17:58.480 --> 00:18:02.040
her attitude, it changed her mindset, it changed what she was

213
00:18:02.040 --> 00:18:08.360
doing. And instead of her being so like whiny and what was mean,

214
00:18:08.720 --> 00:18:12.920
like she took responsibility and it had a domino effect with you

215
00:18:12.920 --> 00:18:15.360
know, her and her team and all that stuff. And I that has

216
00:18:15.520 --> 00:18:17.600
stuck with me since I've listened to that training, like

217
00:18:17.600 --> 00:18:22.200
a few years ago, was that really, the point of I think

218
00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:24.960
when we're doing challenges and things that are like short

219
00:18:24.960 --> 00:18:31.080
sprints, is to change us. And the business or whatever it is

220
00:18:31.080 --> 00:18:34.400
the challenges on just happens to change with it, because we're

221
00:18:34.400 --> 00:18:38.440
different. And the way we show up is different. That wasn't

222
00:18:38.440 --> 00:18:40.920
that's why like this part of it is really sticking out to me.

223
00:18:41.800 --> 00:18:44.320
Because I have like a billion questions. So I would ask her

224
00:18:44.320 --> 00:18:47.080
about her challenge and all the things every day, how did she

225
00:18:47.080 --> 00:18:52.240
experience it? And how much is the what if coming up in that

226
00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:54.560
time period of doing that challenge?

227
00:19:03.600 --> 00:19:06.280
So I don't know, Danielle, if you have a question, but I have

228
00:19:06.280 --> 00:19:07.280
a question to ask.

229
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:08.720
Go ahead.

230
00:19:09.320 --> 00:19:15.040
Okay. If you were going to do a challenge, which I know there is

231
00:19:15.040 --> 00:19:17.960
a 28 day challenge at the end, but and this is definitely,

232
00:19:17.960 --> 00:19:20.920
again, a hypothetical thing just to get your brain going. If you

233
00:19:20.920 --> 00:19:25.040
were to do a challenge in your own business in life, what would

234
00:19:25.040 --> 00:19:30.400
it be? What would it be on like, what would you be doing? And

235
00:19:30.400 --> 00:19:32.800
maybe what would it be called? How long would it last?

236
00:19:39.120 --> 00:19:40.240
You go first, Gabby.

237
00:19:42.280 --> 00:19:47.760
Okay, I think that challenges generally, I think should not be

238
00:19:47.760 --> 00:19:51.040
longer than a month is my personal opinion. Because you

239
00:19:51.040 --> 00:19:54.000
need to be able to you're sprinting, you know, generally

240
00:19:54.000 --> 00:19:57.000
with a challenge. And so once you get to that point, I think

241
00:19:57.000 --> 00:19:59.600
it's a good idea to do a challenge in your own business.

242
00:19:59.600 --> 00:20:02.000
And I think it's a good idea to do a challenge in your own

243
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.000
past a certain point, we start to, we can only sprint for so long. You know what I mean?

244
00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:04.480
business. And I think it's a good idea to do a challenge in

245
00:20:04.000 --> 00:20:12.000
Have you ever tried sprinting? How long can you sprint for? You know what I mean? So we

246
00:20:12.000 --> 00:20:21.000
peter out, and that's okay. So I would do nothing more than a month. And even I think

247
00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:25.000
there's something to be said about doing a five-day challenge or a one-week challenge,

248
00:20:25.000 --> 00:20:32.000
because it's just getting that momentum. And I think that for me, my challenge would

249
00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:42.000
be like a dream challenge, like take five minutes to even think about my dream every

250
00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:48.000
day, like whether it's my dream business, things that have been, you know, formulating

251
00:20:48.000 --> 00:20:54.000
the back of my mind and my subconscious, you know, because there's not a lot of area

252
00:20:54.000 --> 00:21:04.000
of room for that in my life now. So I think for me, it would be some sort of like take

253
00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:10.000
like, I would do more than five minutes, I guess, but maybe take 30 minutes every day

254
00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:22.000
for a month to dream and not just sit there and think about it, but to like, what's the

255
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:26.000
next piece in this dream? What's this puzzle piece in the dream? What's this? And start

256
00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:34.000
creating a fuller picture. And which would require some actions of like, you know, some

257
00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:40.000
type of like action that involves technology of putting something together. Because I need

258
00:21:40.000 --> 00:21:51.000
answers. I need to know what the different puzzle pieces are. I don't think so, Daniel.

259
00:21:51.000 --> 00:22:00.000
90 day runs. Yeah, they're exhausting. 90 days is a long time. Mario says, I think my

260
00:22:00.000 --> 00:22:10.000
challenge would be that I spend 60 minutes a day in intentional rest. I love this one.

261
00:22:10.000 --> 00:22:30.000
Go do it. I love it. Okay, I'll have to look into that. Who else?

262
00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:37.000
I've got one. I would do a 30 day challenge on getting my tacos below 20%. I feel like

263
00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:41.000
that's something that I've been like talking about doing for so long. And I'm like, Oh,

264
00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:45.000
always trying to figure it out. Like, just like do it like in 30 days, get your tacos

265
00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:50.000
below 30% 20% 20% I've started with 30 and then it was like 25. And I was like, No, this

266
00:22:50.000 --> 00:23:00.000
is a challenge. 20 20%. I love it. Imagine what that kind of focus on like one thing

267
00:23:00.000 --> 00:23:09.000
would do for you. It would be a game changer. Yeah. And that's directly tied to profit. So

268
00:23:09.000 --> 00:23:23.000
that's great. Anybody else want to share? Oh, so the end we're talking about. So on

269
00:23:23.000 --> 00:23:29.000
Amazon specifically, she's she has a product on Amazon and her PPC like her advertising

270
00:23:29.000 --> 00:23:35.000
costs, basically that tacos is talking about like the convert kind of your conversions

271
00:23:35.000 --> 00:23:41.000
with selling compared to how much you're spending in advertising. So the lower we get that tacos

272
00:23:41.000 --> 00:23:45.000
that conversion means that you're having to spend less and less on advertising but still

273
00:23:46.000 --> 00:24:03.000
more and more. We want it to go down. Christie, did you have a challenge? Carrie, did you

274
00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:10.000
have a challenge? I feel tired already. You talked about sprinting. I'm like, Oh, I'm

275
00:24:10.000 --> 00:24:19.000
too tired. I'm like, Oh, walk 10,000 miles, but I'm not going to be able to run. I'm not

276
00:24:19.000 --> 00:24:27.000
like in a phase where I can do a 30 day challenge. It would be like, you know, when I get there,

277
00:24:27.000 --> 00:24:35.000
I get there. And I think it's just one of those things where when you said dream and

278
00:24:36.000 --> 00:24:43.000
Margot said a rest challenge. It's like, you know, trying to figure out a way to sit still

279
00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:54.000
and like make my brain be still and be intentional with my focus. I probably could do that. Maybe

280
00:24:54.000 --> 00:25:00.000
I probably would be benefited by doing that. But if I was

281
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:03.200
able to do that is a completely different thing.

282
00:25:06.800 --> 00:25:07.280
That's fair.

283
00:25:11.120 --> 00:25:14.240
Well, kind of along the lines of what you just said, Christy, I feel like

284
00:25:14.800 --> 00:25:19.840
I would go one of two ways. It would either be a walking challenge, like actually walking,

285
00:25:21.840 --> 00:25:27.200
because I find myself because walking really slows me down and it heals my nervous system.

286
00:25:27.200 --> 00:25:34.400
And or like a stretch challenge. Those are two things I really struggle to keep in habit with

287
00:25:35.600 --> 00:25:41.680
that really, really, really support me and then therefore help me do other things in my life.

288
00:25:41.680 --> 00:25:47.840
So it'd either be like a stretch or a walk challenge and then probably something along

289
00:25:47.840 --> 00:25:58.000
the lines of building out basically the next stage of Mindset Monday. So something's on that

290
00:25:58.000 --> 00:26:03.200
too, I think. Yeah, because I think a purpose of a challenge, Christy, isn't necessarily to sprint.

291
00:26:03.200 --> 00:26:09.360
It's just I'm thinking like, where is an area of my life that I'm feeling weakened or that I just

292
00:26:09.360 --> 00:26:17.440
need some extra support in that I would like to have a habit built or I'd like to see a

293
00:26:17.440 --> 00:26:22.960
different result. That's kind of how I was looking at it. And it doesn't have to it can be really

294
00:26:22.960 --> 00:26:26.960
anything because, you know, how we do one thing in our lives shows up and how we do others. So

295
00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:33.440
even if we're mastering one, one habit or one thing in a challenge, it's gonna it's just gonna

296
00:26:33.440 --> 00:26:38.160
have a ripple effect right in other areas of our life, which I think is really powerful.

297
00:26:39.520 --> 00:26:43.440
Yeah, I think that's great. I love the walking stretch because

298
00:26:44.000 --> 00:26:51.280
for a lot of us doing that causes your brain to actually slow down. And for me specifically,

299
00:26:51.280 --> 00:26:56.880
even like it's in those times like when I go and walk before I run or I am taking extra time to do

300
00:26:56.880 --> 00:27:02.240
like a mobility something for my joints or stretching, like my brain is slower. So I'm

301
00:27:02.240 --> 00:27:09.120
actually able to passively like dream. You know what I mean? Like my brain is like, oh, we are

302
00:27:10.080 --> 00:27:14.880
slowing down to think about these other things. Not all of the fires that are happening every day

303
00:27:14.880 --> 00:27:27.280
and take care of a put out. Yeah. We're gonna move and transition into regular office hours

304
00:27:27.280 --> 00:27:31.040
here in a few minutes. I want to leave space for anything else that anybody wanted to share

305
00:27:31.040 --> 00:27:37.680
about the book or takeaways, questions. Something that you loved.

306
00:27:47.280 --> 00:27:53.040
All right, we're gonna move on. I think for office hours today, I really want to do like

307
00:27:53.040 --> 00:28:02.880
an emotional check in. I know a lot of times I'm very action oriented and, you know, kind of

308
00:28:02.880 --> 00:28:09.920
solution oriented, but I want to take a minute and just see. Let's slow down for today and see

309
00:28:09.920 --> 00:28:14.880
how everyone's doing emotionally. That can be emotionally, how you're doing personally, whatever

310
00:28:14.880 --> 00:28:20.400
it is you want to share or feel like you need support on. I want to give space for that today.

311
00:28:21.280 --> 00:28:28.000
And as I do always love when others can respond, though, with encouragement and positive

312
00:28:29.680 --> 00:28:47.760
positivity. So I don't know if anybody wants to be the first person to share how they're doing.

313
00:28:51.360 --> 00:28:58.800
Well, I already shared that I'm feeling tired. I feel frustrated because like my season of hard,

314
00:28:59.360 --> 00:29:08.560
it just feels like it's continuing way longer than it should. And I just feel like I'm done

315
00:29:08.560 --> 00:29:14.720
with that part now and I'm ready to move to the next part, but it's just like lingers still. And

316
00:29:15.440 --> 00:29:21.760
so I just feel frustrated about it and it's kind of taking my energy away because I don't want to

317
00:29:21.760 --> 00:29:28.080
work on those problems anymore. I want to work on new problems, but those problems are not resolved

318
00:29:28.080 --> 00:29:40.240
completely. But I feel like I'm like right there at that tail end of all of my issues being

319
00:29:40.960 --> 00:29:48.800
resolved and I can like get to the next level and go to the next step, the next phase, the next,

320
00:29:48.800 --> 00:29:54.880
you know, what's there for me. And so, yeah, I just, I feel tired.

321
00:29:57.440 --> 00:29:59.840
When you're talking about problems, are you talking about with your

322
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:02.920
stuff with your business or other things or a mix of those?

323
00:30:04.480 --> 00:30:08.080
All of them, they're all problems, right? I don't have

324
00:30:08.080 --> 00:30:11.960
like, I mean, fortunately, my kids are healthy. Again, we all

325
00:30:11.960 --> 00:30:15.280
got really sick last month, but then we all got healthy. And so

326
00:30:15.280 --> 00:30:19.680
we're all fine now. But it was just like, I don't know, it's

327
00:30:19.680 --> 00:30:24.760
like, all of my businesses were like crumbling. I felt like, you

328
00:30:24.760 --> 00:30:27.400
know, that stress was carrying over into like my other

329
00:30:27.400 --> 00:30:32.040
relationships. And it was just like, everything felt terrible.

330
00:30:32.560 --> 00:30:35.720
And like I said, like some of the stuff is resolved, like that

331
00:30:35.720 --> 00:30:42.880
Airbnb fiasco is done. And yeah, things are moving forward with

332
00:30:42.880 --> 00:30:46.960
my properties and getting tenants in the properties, which

333
00:30:46.960 --> 00:30:51.200
is absolutely required to be financially stable. So that's

334
00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:59.880
good. But yeah, I mean, nobody showed up for my full time job.

335
00:31:00.400 --> 00:31:03.040
Nobody showed up this week because they have, you know,

336
00:31:03.040 --> 00:31:08.480
missed so many paychecks. And I'm trying to support the CEO

337
00:31:08.480 --> 00:31:13.400
to raise money so that we can all get our back pay. So I can

338
00:31:13.400 --> 00:31:19.240
get my back pay as well. But it just lingers and lingers. And I

339
00:31:19.240 --> 00:31:25.160
feel like I want to just get that money or get out of debt so

340
00:31:25.160 --> 00:31:30.200
that I can move to the next step in things. And I keep having

341
00:31:30.200 --> 00:31:35.200
like, networking phone calls to make connections to try to like,

342
00:31:35.440 --> 00:31:41.400
you know, do fractional C-suite consulting or otherwise, like do

343
00:31:41.520 --> 00:31:45.520
contract work with small businesses. And none of the

344
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:51.160
entities have money. They're all looking for money, too. And so

345
00:31:51.160 --> 00:31:55.200
it's like, I don't know, I just have meetings and they don't

346
00:31:55.800 --> 00:32:01.760
come to instant paychecks, which is fine. It's just, there's a

347
00:32:01.760 --> 00:32:02.720
drain on my energy.

348
00:32:06.800 --> 00:32:08.440
How would you like to be encouraged today?

349
00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:12.200
I'm not saying, you know, looking for encouragement or

350
00:32:12.200 --> 00:32:15.960
anything. It's just like, time heals all wounds. So I'll just

351
00:32:15.960 --> 00:32:19.480
give it another month and then just take it from there.

352
00:32:20.240 --> 00:32:20.760
Okay.

353
00:32:22.480 --> 00:32:26.320
Does anybody have any sort of, did anybody think of any, have a

354
00:32:26.320 --> 00:32:29.320
thought pop up for Christy while she was talking?

355
00:32:30.160 --> 00:32:32.480
Christy, I don't I don't know you very well, but I've only

356
00:32:32.520 --> 00:32:37.280
heard you in a couple of sessions. But, but even in the

357
00:32:37.280 --> 00:32:40.360
small amount of time, I realized that you've done so many

358
00:32:40.360 --> 00:32:43.760
projects, you've got so many things going on, and that you

359
00:32:43.760 --> 00:32:48.040
have many, many talents. And so I'm just wondering, how do you

360
00:32:48.040 --> 00:32:50.360
think about the future of the business world?

361
00:32:51.440 --> 00:32:54.880
Yeah, I think that's a great question. So, I think that

362
00:32:54.880 --> 00:32:58.680
you've got so many things going on, and that you have many, many

363
00:32:58.720 --> 00:33:02.400
talents, and that's really impressive. So I feel like for

364
00:33:02.400 --> 00:33:06.080
sure, because you've planted these seeds, and you clearly

365
00:33:06.080 --> 00:33:09.640
have many, many talents, that right around the corner, all of

366
00:33:09.640 --> 00:33:11.160
the riches are going to start coming in.

367
00:33:12.600 --> 00:33:14.040
Thank you very much.

368
00:33:17.400 --> 00:33:20.800
Yeah, I wanted to share two things. So number one, it would

369
00:33:20.800 --> 00:33:25.960
be good, maybe you could take a look at, you know, what you need

370
00:33:25.960 --> 00:33:33.320
energetically to start feeling more energized. You know, that

371
00:33:33.320 --> 00:33:36.160
just can look different for everybody in every season,

372
00:33:36.160 --> 00:33:38.760
right? So it doesn't have to be this big thing. But you know, is

373
00:33:38.760 --> 00:33:41.240
there something you can do differently this week where

374
00:33:41.760 --> 00:33:45.520
you're getting some energy back? So maybe something that makes

375
00:33:45.520 --> 00:33:50.680
you smile or a small self care thing or just something like

376
00:33:50.680 --> 00:33:52.880
that. All right, that was the first thing I wanted to share

377
00:33:52.880 --> 00:33:57.440
with you. Because I mean, working for no pay is draining.

378
00:33:59.200 --> 00:34:02.480
It's freaking draining. I've been doing it. I've done it. I'm

379
00:34:02.480 --> 00:34:06.960
sure I will do it again. So making sure to take care of

380
00:34:06.960 --> 00:34:12.040
yourself and that and always, you know, teetering the line of

381
00:34:12.520 --> 00:34:16.440
when is it good to to make a change? Or when is it good to

382
00:34:16.440 --> 00:34:19.320
keep going? So just keep checking in with yourself. And

383
00:34:19.320 --> 00:34:24.400
then also time heals everything you mentioned. And I would like

384
00:34:24.400 --> 00:34:29.760
to in all love say time doesn't heal everything. But working

385
00:34:29.760 --> 00:34:34.679
towards healing within time can because sometimes years will go

386
00:34:34.679 --> 00:34:38.199
by and people are still not healed. Right? Because you have

387
00:34:38.199 --> 00:34:43.880
to do something different for there to be healing. And so I

388
00:34:43.880 --> 00:34:49.120
don't think Yeah, because we can be healed in a week or months or

389
00:34:49.120 --> 00:34:53.679
years, you know, time. Yeah, like with intention with

390
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:57.080
something that's kind of helping you go in a different direction

391
00:34:57.080 --> 00:35:00.080
will heal you, which I know. I mean, you're

392
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:02.040
about to do a big move, right?

393
00:35:02.040 --> 00:35:04.840
So I know you're kind of waiting on that.

394
00:35:04.840 --> 00:35:06.680
I know like things are coming your way

395
00:35:06.680 --> 00:35:07.840
that are gonna change.

396
00:35:07.840 --> 00:35:11.040
So continue, again, you need to take care of yourself.

397
00:35:11.040 --> 00:35:12.360
I would say even more, right?

398
00:35:12.360 --> 00:35:15.880
Cause you're about to hit a transition season.

399
00:35:15.880 --> 00:35:18.480
So that would be my encouragement for you.

400
00:35:20.340 --> 00:35:21.180
Thank you.

401
00:35:23.400 --> 00:35:24.800
Thank you for sharing guys.

402
00:35:25.880 --> 00:35:27.480
Margot put in the chat, I don't know if you can see that.

403
00:35:27.480 --> 00:35:28.720
Christy, I think you're doing great

404
00:35:28.720 --> 00:35:31.160
and the fact that you're showing us your weekly shows

405
00:35:31.160 --> 00:35:32.800
that you're still committed to moving forward.

406
00:35:32.800 --> 00:35:34.640
And I know it will get easier.

407
00:35:34.640 --> 00:35:37.840
The problems are being resolved, even though it feels slow.

408
00:35:42.600 --> 00:35:44.760
And then the 30 day self-care challenge

409
00:35:44.760 --> 00:35:47.700
has been challenged to you, Margot.

410
00:35:55.200 --> 00:35:56.040
Who else?

411
00:35:57.040 --> 00:35:58.920
I'll go next.

412
00:36:00.520 --> 00:36:03.040
Kind of a little bit in the same boat,

413
00:36:03.040 --> 00:36:08.040
but it's being, I feel like I hit bottom a lot

414
00:36:08.040 --> 00:36:10.880
when during that five weeks that I was sick.

415
00:36:10.880 --> 00:36:15.760
And I was talking on the call yesterday,

416
00:36:15.760 --> 00:36:17.800
just like, I just take action all the time.

417
00:36:17.800 --> 00:36:20.320
I get an idea and here I go.

418
00:36:20.320 --> 00:36:22.000
And then I change directions and it's like,

419
00:36:22.000 --> 00:36:25.740
so I'm too in a position where,

420
00:36:26.440 --> 00:36:28.100
I mean, I get paid for room and board

421
00:36:30.500 --> 00:36:33.060
and there's no boundaries.

422
00:36:33.060 --> 00:36:34.980
I worked for my dad for a dog business

423
00:36:34.980 --> 00:36:37.140
and I actually moved out to,

424
00:36:37.140 --> 00:36:39.660
moved my office into my Airstream,

425
00:36:41.420 --> 00:36:43.600
which is far enough away from the house

426
00:36:43.600 --> 00:36:44.740
that he can't just come on,

427
00:36:44.740 --> 00:36:46.640
knock on my door at 11 o'clock at night

428
00:36:48.300 --> 00:36:49.900
and want me to answer emails

429
00:36:49.900 --> 00:36:52.080
or whatever dumb thing he has for me.

430
00:36:53.460 --> 00:36:55.520
And it feels good.

431
00:36:56.260 --> 00:36:57.780
It's just like the last few days

432
00:36:57.780 --> 00:37:00.940
I've been cleaning and cleaning and getting things ready.

433
00:37:00.940 --> 00:37:05.220
And, but I'm like in my new office space right now,

434
00:37:05.220 --> 00:37:08.620
I'm like not worried about him barging in

435
00:37:08.620 --> 00:37:09.680
and interrupting me.

436
00:37:11.620 --> 00:37:15.340
And that's huge for me, like the boundary thing.

437
00:37:15.340 --> 00:37:20.340
And so this 30 day challenge feels really good.

438
00:37:21.500 --> 00:37:23.740
I think it might be less because I'm gonna,

439
00:37:23.740 --> 00:37:25.940
the retreat's gonna be my deadline,

440
00:37:27.060 --> 00:37:29.100
next step and then leave the retreat

441
00:37:29.100 --> 00:37:31.800
within that next 30 days.

442
00:37:33.900 --> 00:37:38.460
But it's just, it's like now it's back to action again,

443
00:37:38.460 --> 00:37:40.180
but action that for me,

444
00:37:42.140 --> 00:37:45.460
creating space for me, creating safety for myself,

445
00:37:45.460 --> 00:37:48.260
boundaries, that's kind of where I'm at.

446
00:37:49.100 --> 00:37:54.100
I love that, we love boundaries, I love boundaries.

447
00:37:56.140 --> 00:38:00.060
I think my, my like, I don't know,

448
00:38:00.060 --> 00:38:03.300
kudos is like way to take a step

449
00:38:03.300 --> 00:38:06.260
into claiming back some boundaries for yourself

450
00:38:06.260 --> 00:38:07.580
and doing something within your power.

451
00:38:07.580 --> 00:38:08.820
That's a big deal.

452
00:38:08.820 --> 00:38:11.500
When it is, I think it's never easy

453
00:38:11.500 --> 00:38:12.980
to create a new boundary.

454
00:38:13.900 --> 00:38:17.100
It usually involves some type of,

455
00:38:17.100 --> 00:38:18.460
I saw Daniel go like this.

456
00:38:20.100 --> 00:38:21.500
Yeah, there's always,

457
00:38:22.660 --> 00:38:26.140
it's always gonna be some form of uncomfortable.

458
00:38:26.140 --> 00:38:28.660
It's gonna hit on something, whatever it may be.

459
00:38:28.660 --> 00:38:31.140
And a lot of times it does, not always,

460
00:38:31.140 --> 00:38:34.140
but it does create tension with the thing that,

461
00:38:34.140 --> 00:38:36.620
or person that you're creating a boundary with.

462
00:38:37.940 --> 00:38:40.660
Especially family members, yeah, so it's hard.

463
00:38:40.660 --> 00:38:43.900
My encouragement to you and just like, I keep going,

464
00:38:44.420 --> 00:38:47.700
what's another thing, small or big,

465
00:38:47.700 --> 00:38:51.060
that you can have another boundary on?

466
00:38:51.060 --> 00:38:53.540
Whether it's with yourself, with another person,

467
00:38:54.620 --> 00:38:57.980
a habit, whatever, take that momentum

468
00:38:57.980 --> 00:38:59.900
of building one boundary into another.

469
00:39:00.860 --> 00:39:03.860
Because you are responsible, we are all responsible

470
00:39:03.860 --> 00:39:08.380
for the success of boundaries we place, right?

471
00:39:11.980 --> 00:39:12.820
I love that.

472
00:39:12.820 --> 00:39:15.180
It's putting back into place my rituals,

473
00:39:15.180 --> 00:39:17.140
morning rituals, personal development.

474
00:39:19.220 --> 00:39:20.060
That's great.

475
00:39:21.580 --> 00:39:24.020
Does anybody else have a word of encouragement firsthand?

476
00:39:24.020 --> 00:39:26.620
Like who has also specifically like placed,

477
00:39:26.620 --> 00:39:29.700
has had experience placing a boundary,

478
00:39:29.700 --> 00:39:32.500
new boundary with someone or something that was hard?

479
00:39:34.140 --> 00:39:37.300
I have created many boundaries.

480
00:39:37.300 --> 00:39:39.900
And at first there's tension,

481
00:39:39.900 --> 00:39:42.060
and then it's a calling up of yourself

482
00:39:42.100 --> 00:39:44.500
to stick to your own boundary.

483
00:39:44.500 --> 00:39:47.700
And then a boundary simply teaches somebody

484
00:39:47.700 --> 00:39:49.420
how to treat you.

485
00:39:49.420 --> 00:39:52.180
You're teaching people what you allow,

486
00:39:52.180 --> 00:39:55.620
what you're okay with, what works for you.

487
00:39:55.620 --> 00:39:59.500
And so, and then not to mention when you make a boundary,

488
00:39:59.500 --> 00:40:00.340
there's usually.

489
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:04.000
tension on the other person because they're not used to it maybe right or they're like wait a

490
00:40:04.000 --> 00:40:09.200
minute you know so even with my own blood sister we've worked on our relationship for the past year

491
00:40:09.200 --> 00:40:13.360
and we have boundaries and there's still a little bit of tension even though we love each other and

492
00:40:13.360 --> 00:40:17.520
actually have communicated about it and understand it and like are on the same page

493
00:40:17.520 --> 00:40:26.240
but I ultimately think it's proved societally how we've become so pleasing and so unhealthy

494
00:40:26.240 --> 00:40:33.280
I think boundaries are very healthy as long as they're helping and not hurting and so I think

495
00:40:33.280 --> 00:40:42.800
Cian yeah no one's knocking on my door at 11 p.m answering emails nope right and so but you

496
00:40:42.800 --> 00:40:47.760
get to teach that so that's what I wanted to say so good job keep it up yeah

497
00:40:47.760 --> 00:40:55.440
does anybody have anything else for Cian before we move on to somebody else

498
00:40:55.440 --> 00:41:07.520
I do want to say Margot put her update I host another yoga and oils retreat on Sunday it was

499
00:41:07.520 --> 00:41:13.360
full again they are beautiful but energetically draining I was worried that this week would be

500
00:41:13.360 --> 00:41:17.680
hard I made sure I prioritized rest and I woke up yesterday actually feeling rested and ready for

501
00:41:17.680 --> 00:41:22.400
the day I'm carrying that feeling with me this week and I'm feeling really excited about all

502
00:41:22.400 --> 00:41:28.880
the things I have going on and I'm less than two months to her time off I'm loving this

503
00:41:28.880 --> 00:41:32.560
so much I'm loving how much rest is in this little message

504
00:41:35.360 --> 00:41:40.480
so just keep it going prioritizing rest and what was great is you got to see the payoff from it

505
00:41:40.480 --> 00:41:46.000
sometimes when we're prioritizing rest it takes a little longer to feel it if you know what I

506
00:41:46.000 --> 00:41:50.160
mean but you got your like you prioritize it and you got to see the like gratification of like oh

507
00:41:50.160 --> 00:42:01.840
I woke up yesterday feeling better I love that I think my encouragement is ask yourself you know

508
00:42:01.840 --> 00:42:07.120
just spend time thinking about why are the retreats draining do you want to be drained in that way

509
00:42:07.120 --> 00:42:12.720
from that thing you know just something to think about

510
00:42:17.120 --> 00:42:22.080
does anybody else have a little encouragement for Margo or not little but encouragement

511
00:42:22.080 --> 00:42:40.240
yeah Margo I want to add on another question which would be what could you do differently

512
00:42:40.240 --> 00:42:46.800
to make it less draining just like one little thing and then and then I'm celebrating the

513
00:42:46.800 --> 00:42:55.840
fact that it's full again that's really huge and like any new skill in the beginning

514
00:42:57.520 --> 00:43:01.600
you're learning what works and what doesn't work and then you get to continually refine it

515
00:43:01.600 --> 00:43:06.800
and decide okay ultimately this is too draining or what's one thing I could add in to make it

516
00:43:06.800 --> 00:43:13.280
less draining until you really kind of land on okay this is something I want to keep repeating

517
00:43:13.280 --> 00:43:19.120
and keep doing so but absolutely celebrating because obviously it took a lot of time effort

518
00:43:19.120 --> 00:43:23.760
and work to just even have your first one and so that's amazing good job Margo

519
00:43:26.320 --> 00:43:33.920
also wanted to say congratulations and I'll just a note of when you start something new

520
00:43:33.920 --> 00:43:41.120
it does take more energy to to get over that hurdle and then after you do it four times

521
00:43:41.120 --> 00:43:48.400
10 times 20 times it's like an autopilot a muscle memory it just comes out of you

522
00:43:48.400 --> 00:43:55.680
so I would just say right now you're having to schedule rest to recover from it but who knows

523
00:43:55.680 --> 00:44:00.720
six months from now you could say hey this is very profitable I'm gonna keep doing it and also

524
00:44:00.720 --> 00:44:08.640
it's like a tenth of draining now than it was to begin with so get good at things whenever

525
00:44:09.200 --> 00:44:10.880
you're incentivized to get good at them

526
00:44:15.360 --> 00:44:16.560
thanks for sharing Christy

527
00:44:16.560 --> 00:44:28.960
yeah getting the house ready for anything is always tiring so what's to go next Erika, Kari

528
00:44:39.520 --> 00:44:44.960
yeah I can go next I've been thinking about actually this is my hesitation is along with

529
00:44:44.960 --> 00:44:52.400
what I've been feeling feeling very uh it's like uncertain or like insecure lately I feel like like

530
00:44:52.400 --> 00:44:56.960
a lot of things that I've tried haven't worked out as expected and even though like I know

531
00:44:57.520 --> 00:44:59.840
that that's just um

532
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:06.500
You know, that's just part of, of trying things, you know, that's, that's, that's lessons learned and experiences are, are valuable.

533
00:45:06.500 --> 00:45:14.000
Um, but I don't know if I shared, uh, a couple of weeks ago that my, my husband's boss just passed away and, um, he's an artist.

534
00:45:14.000 --> 00:45:15.000
Thank you so much.

535
00:45:15.000 --> 00:45:22.000
Uh, and, uh, since he's going through this career transition, I find myself telling him like, oh, like this is your chance.

536
00:45:22.000 --> 00:45:23.500
Like you like follow your dreams.

537
00:45:23.500 --> 00:45:29.500
You've always wanted to do art, like full time, even though this sad thing has happened, this is like an opportunity for you to really go for it.

538
00:45:29.500 --> 00:45:35.000
And I kind of feel like I've just realized that I don't have that same self-talk to myself.

539
00:45:35.000 --> 00:45:41.500
But like when I have myself, like anytime I try something that doesn't work out, I'm like, oh, how, like, why could you be so, so dumb?

540
00:45:41.500 --> 00:45:43.500
How would you try that when you should have done something else?

541
00:45:43.500 --> 00:45:51.000
So, um, I'm trying to maybe like rework the way that I frame my own, like encouragement, I suppose.

542
00:45:51.000 --> 00:45:59.000
And like taking the mistakes that I've made as like more of like, all right, well you tried something new and that's good.

543
00:45:59.000 --> 00:46:10.000
Like, like good for you for trying and not just staying stuck, you know, and you'll probably have to take a couple of more times of trying and something not working out before you get to the thing that is.

544
00:46:10.000 --> 00:46:15.500
So, um, I'm really happy to be here this afternoon and listening to you all has been really helpful.

545
00:46:15.500 --> 00:46:24.500
And I appreciate the emotional check-in for me to kind of identify what I know I need to work on in the next couple of days, weeks, years.

546
00:46:24.500 --> 00:46:25.500
Yeah.

547
00:46:25.500 --> 00:46:27.500
Thanks for sharing.

548
00:46:28.000 --> 00:46:30.000
Who has a response?

549
00:46:30.500 --> 00:46:52.500
I think my encouragement, Erica, is, you know, you mentioned like sometimes, usually all the time you have to try some things, try a handful of things.

550
00:46:52.500 --> 00:46:59.500
Sometimes a lot of things before you start seeing momentum or seeing success or whatever starts working.

551
00:47:00.000 --> 00:47:06.000
And I just want to like applaud that you've like started like showing up here again in this community.

552
00:47:06.000 --> 00:47:09.000
Because I know there was some time where you weren't.

553
00:47:09.000 --> 00:47:22.000
And I list that, just that concept of like getting back up again and even getting in the space of being around the like-minded people and being in a place that is going to encourage you to move forward.

554
00:47:22.500 --> 00:47:29.500
And I think those actions are so critical to the like, the other actions of like, try again, try again, try again.

555
00:47:29.500 --> 00:47:38.500
Because like this, of like getting in the community, getting in a space, it helps fuel you to do the try again, try again, try again.

556
00:47:38.500 --> 00:47:44.500
You know, having people remind you of the, um, just keep going.

557
00:47:44.500 --> 00:47:46.500
Yeah, so true.

558
00:47:47.000 --> 00:47:52.000
Because when you're alone, it's a lot easier to talk ourselves out of the keep going.

559
00:47:52.000 --> 00:47:54.000
You know, it's tiring. It is.

560
00:47:54.000 --> 00:47:56.000
It can be really draining sometimes.

561
00:47:56.000 --> 00:47:58.000
So I'm really glad you're here.

562
00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:04.000
Sienna, are you online physically or in her business?

563
00:48:06.000 --> 00:48:07.000
Physically.

564
00:48:09.000 --> 00:48:11.000
Physically, I'm in New York.

565
00:48:11.000 --> 00:48:12.000
Oh, okay.

566
00:48:12.500 --> 00:48:19.500
From my experience with trying to get the tacos down, whatever you try first is not going to work.

567
00:48:19.500 --> 00:48:23.500
It's like these like different levers that you have to pull.

568
00:48:23.500 --> 00:48:30.500
And then you have to figure out which levers have to be at which location to get your things to work.

569
00:48:31.000 --> 00:48:38.000
So just an encouragement, like to systematically try it out.

570
00:48:38.000 --> 00:48:39.000
Yeah.

571
00:48:39.000 --> 00:48:44.000
With the assumption that the first thing you do won't be the last thing that you do.

572
00:48:44.000 --> 00:48:48.000
And you will be iterating for all 30 days of your challenge.

573
00:48:48.000 --> 00:48:58.000
And just like go into it, like, how, how can I, you know, get it down to instead of 30 days, 27 days or something like that.

574
00:48:58.500 --> 00:49:05.500
And celebrate every half a percent gain that you get because every half percent is profitability.

575
00:49:05.500 --> 00:49:06.500
Yeah.

576
00:49:07.500 --> 00:49:09.500
That's great advice, Christy. Thank you.

577
00:49:09.500 --> 00:49:14.500
And make notes of your changes and make notes of what happens.

578
00:49:14.500 --> 00:49:16.500
There are a lot of different variables.

579
00:49:17.500 --> 00:49:20.500
So make some notes so you know what's happening.

580
00:49:21.000 --> 00:49:22.000
All right.

581
00:49:22.000 --> 00:49:26.000
Carrie, you no longer get to sit silently.

582
00:49:30.000 --> 00:49:36.000
I think I've just been giving myself permission to feel all the things.

583
00:49:37.000 --> 00:49:50.000
I think there's a quote from Alex Ramosi, and it says, friendly reminder, you're allowed to be stressed, angry, and frustrated.

584
00:49:50.500 --> 00:49:56.500
Frustrated, annoyed, a.k.a. have things generally not go your way and still get shit done.

585
00:49:56.500 --> 00:49:59.500
And that's kind of been where.

586
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:03.440
where I've been.

587
00:50:03.440 --> 00:50:06.740
Sean and I both came down with a horrible stomach bug.

588
00:50:08.000 --> 00:50:11.140
So that's been since Saturday.

589
00:50:12.080 --> 00:50:13.400
I'm starting to feel better

590
00:50:13.400 --> 00:50:16.060
and Sean's just getting through it.

591
00:50:17.300 --> 00:50:19.800
My dog is sick, so,

592
00:50:20.760 --> 00:50:23.760
and it's the one I named my company after, my brand,

593
00:50:23.760 --> 00:50:25.720
so my heart is...

594
00:50:30.000 --> 00:50:35.000
But, despite that, I get up every day,

595
00:50:38.500 --> 00:50:41.240
I push through, I move the needle.

596
00:50:41.240 --> 00:50:45.640
I was going through, just to speak on Margo,

597
00:50:45.640 --> 00:50:47.060
I've been doing this four years

598
00:50:47.060 --> 00:50:49.180
and I've been doing all the events.

599
00:50:49.180 --> 00:50:53.100
Last year, I double, triple booked, I had employees,

600
00:50:53.100 --> 00:50:56.120
and this year I backed off,

601
00:50:56.120 --> 00:51:00.480
because I got market burnout, that's a real thing.

602
00:51:00.480 --> 00:51:01.920
And it didn't feel good anymore.

603
00:51:01.920 --> 00:51:05.120
And it's funny, market season is back in full swing

604
00:51:05.120 --> 00:51:07.360
and I started getting FOMO.

605
00:51:07.360 --> 00:51:09.720
And then, over the weekend,

606
00:51:09.720 --> 00:51:12.600
I watched everybody else post where they were

607
00:51:12.600 --> 00:51:13.840
and things like that.

608
00:51:13.840 --> 00:51:16.720
And I was like, you know what, I don't miss that.

609
00:51:16.720 --> 00:51:18.320
So it's weird how you go through

610
00:51:18.320 --> 00:51:19.820
this rollercoaster of emotions,

611
00:51:19.820 --> 00:51:22.520
because I was like, I made the commitment

612
00:51:22.520 --> 00:51:25.540
not to do that to myself, because I have burnout,

613
00:51:25.540 --> 00:51:28.620
it stressed me out, it was no longer enjoyable.

614
00:51:28.620 --> 00:51:31.180
It's not really moving the needle in my business.

615
00:51:31.180 --> 00:51:34.860
So it's not creating success or the things

616
00:51:34.860 --> 00:51:37.060
that I needed it to create.

617
00:51:37.060 --> 00:51:40.340
So then I back off, then I'm having FOMO,

618
00:51:40.340 --> 00:51:42.260
then I see everything and I'm like, no, you know what,

619
00:51:42.260 --> 00:51:43.280
I made the right choice.

620
00:51:43.280 --> 00:51:45.080
I want my time freedom.

621
00:51:45.080 --> 00:51:47.600
I don't wanna be doing the long hours,

622
00:51:47.600 --> 00:51:51.100
the long days for what, so.

623
00:51:51.100 --> 00:51:52.980
But yeah, so I think I'm just allowing myself

624
00:51:52.980 --> 00:51:56.060
to be perceptive, feel all the things,

625
00:51:56.060 --> 00:51:57.440
and still get shit done.

626
00:52:02.860 --> 00:52:04.140
It has encouragement.

627
00:52:13.860 --> 00:52:16.580
I just think that's really powerful.

628
00:52:16.580 --> 00:52:18.260
That's what I wrote in the chat, Carrie,

629
00:52:18.260 --> 00:52:22.660
because I think a lot of problems

630
00:52:22.660 --> 00:52:25.940
come from ignoring feelings.

631
00:52:25.940 --> 00:52:28.980
So it's really, truly a skill to be able

632
00:52:28.980 --> 00:52:31.260
to not just acknowledge your feeling,

633
00:52:31.260 --> 00:52:33.860
but name it and then feel it,

634
00:52:33.860 --> 00:52:37.060
and then also not let it keep you in stuck-ville.

635
00:52:37.060 --> 00:52:41.260
So what I'm seeing is you may seem like you look weak

636
00:52:41.260 --> 00:52:46.260
and feel weak, but you seem very powerful to me right now.

637
00:52:47.140 --> 00:52:49.580
And also don't forget 2 Corinthians,

638
00:52:49.580 --> 00:52:52.260
where Paul talks about in his weakness

639
00:52:52.260 --> 00:52:54.380
is when he is most strong,

640
00:52:54.380 --> 00:52:57.300
because it's the power of Christ that rests on him

641
00:52:57.300 --> 00:52:58.380
and not just himself.

642
00:52:58.380 --> 00:53:01.540
So, and I acknowledge all of your feelings,

643
00:53:01.540 --> 00:53:04.540
and I acknowledge what's going on with your dog

644
00:53:04.540 --> 00:53:06.060
and your physical body,

645
00:53:06.060 --> 00:53:07.980
because also when our physical bodies are down,

646
00:53:07.980 --> 00:53:09.180
the mind can go down.

647
00:53:09.180 --> 00:53:12.260
And so really powerful for you to just show up

648
00:53:12.260 --> 00:53:15.020
and just be poised, really,

649
00:53:15.020 --> 00:53:16.340
and just be like, this is where I'm at,

650
00:53:16.340 --> 00:53:17.660
and this is how I feel.

651
00:53:17.660 --> 00:53:20.500
And I think that's a really powerful moment right now.

652
00:53:20.500 --> 00:53:21.700
Thank you for sharing.

653
00:53:26.340 --> 00:53:29.140
Yeah, I have to jump into and say,

654
00:53:29.140 --> 00:53:30.820
Carrie, I was just thinking about you the other day,

655
00:53:30.820 --> 00:53:32.140
because I think you're gonna be at the trip

656
00:53:32.140 --> 00:53:32.980
at the end of the month,

657
00:53:32.980 --> 00:53:34.700
and I'm really excited to see you.

658
00:53:34.700 --> 00:53:38.420
And I really admire so much your integrity

659
00:53:38.420 --> 00:53:41.460
and your honesty and your clarity of where you're going

660
00:53:41.460 --> 00:53:43.860
and your determination in that.

661
00:53:43.860 --> 00:53:45.660
And I was just thinking, honestly,

662
00:53:45.660 --> 00:53:48.460
that if anyone deserves to make it,

663
00:53:48.460 --> 00:53:51.580
it's Carrie, because you show up no matter what

664
00:53:51.580 --> 00:53:56.580
with compassion and you're so kind to everyone,

665
00:53:57.380 --> 00:53:58.820
and you're doing all of the work,

666
00:53:58.820 --> 00:54:00.740
you're doing all of the hard work,

667
00:54:00.740 --> 00:54:02.540
and you're gonna get there, girl,

668
00:54:02.540 --> 00:54:03.780
and it's gonna be amazing.

669
00:54:03.780 --> 00:54:07.420
And I'm so excited to see the wonderful place

670
00:54:07.420 --> 00:54:08.700
that you land.

671
00:54:11.220 --> 00:54:12.700
And I'm excited to see the wonderful place

672
00:54:12.700 --> 00:54:13.660
you'll land at the end of May,

673
00:54:14.460 --> 00:54:16.340
which is gonna be close to where I'm landing, too.

674
00:54:19.300 --> 00:54:24.300
Yeah, Carrie, it's hard when your dogs,

675
00:54:24.420 --> 00:54:28.540
your animals, your pets, your little fur babies

676
00:54:28.540 --> 00:54:32.940
are not doing well for one reason or another.

677
00:54:32.940 --> 00:54:34.940
It's an emotional thing.

678
00:54:34.940 --> 00:54:36.300
Like, it's deep.

679
00:54:36.300 --> 00:54:40.020
So I love that you're still getting shit done,

680
00:54:40.020 --> 00:54:42.180
but I also wanna give you permission to have days

681
00:54:42.220 --> 00:54:43.900
where you don't get shit done.

682
00:54:43.900 --> 00:54:48.900
And that doesn't mean that you're falling off

683
00:54:49.260 --> 00:54:52.420
the bandwagon, you know, or procrastinating,

684
00:54:52.420 --> 00:54:53.980
or avoiding it.

685
00:54:53.980 --> 00:54:56.260
Like, sometimes, I just want you to know that.

686
00:54:56.260 --> 00:54:58.100
Like, if you have a day where you're like,

687
00:54:58.100 --> 00:55:00.220
my energy's really low, I'm physically.

688
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:05.520
really low. Like I, you know, I'm feeling a lot of sadness or a lot of whatever.

689
00:55:05.520 --> 00:55:08.320
And I just need the day to have the space to just sit and feel it.

690
00:55:09.280 --> 00:55:10.320
I think that's OK, too.

691
00:55:10.320 --> 00:55:13.720
So just know that if you need to hear that, just know it's OK to do that also.

692
00:55:16.880 --> 00:55:20.920
Yeah, it doesn't mean that you won't reach your goals if you do that.

693
00:55:24.680 --> 00:55:28.920
Well, guys, so my encouragement overall for this next week

694
00:55:29.120 --> 00:55:35.000
as we are reading the book is just continue to maybe think about what we talked.

695
00:55:35.000 --> 00:55:36.920
I'm like, if you were to give yourself a challenge,

696
00:55:36.920 --> 00:55:40.320
I'm not saying you have to give yourself a challenge like a 30 day challenge.

697
00:55:40.320 --> 00:55:45.360
But even if it's like for one day, what's that thing that came up in your mind

698
00:55:45.360 --> 00:55:47.640
that you probably could do or would benefit from?

699
00:55:48.680 --> 00:55:52.320
If you did it even just one day, just to practice, like doing something

700
00:55:52.320 --> 00:55:53.520
that you know you need.

701
00:55:55.040 --> 00:55:57.320
And taking action on something that you know you need.

702
00:55:59.920 --> 00:56:02.440
And then, yeah, we'll kick off

703
00:56:04.440 --> 00:56:07.120
the next week, but close next week.

704
00:56:09.080 --> 00:56:12.440
Yeah. Any lingering thoughts or questions before we head out?

705
00:56:18.280 --> 00:56:22.040
I wrote in the chat, but where do you actually get the actual book from?

706
00:56:22.320 --> 00:56:25.520
Because it's not available on Amazon.

707
00:56:25.520 --> 00:56:28.840
I thought on Amazon, but I guess it was with Kindle or audio book.

708
00:56:28.920 --> 00:56:31.680
So you can get it from your library.

709
00:56:31.680 --> 00:56:35.000
Like I saw at least my local library had it as an e-book.

710
00:56:35.400 --> 00:56:40.120
I have the Libby app, which is, you know, gets connected to the library app.

711
00:56:40.120 --> 00:56:41.680
It's connected to your local library.

712
00:56:41.680 --> 00:56:44.400
So that's where I checked it out from.

713
00:56:46.480 --> 00:56:49.120
And then there's a physical book that you can also

714
00:56:51.600 --> 00:56:54.000
get as well. So I'm not sure if any.

715
00:56:54.000 --> 00:56:57.040
Where did if you guys ordered the physical book, where did you order from?

716
00:56:58.920 --> 00:57:00.680
If anybody did that.

717
00:57:02.560 --> 00:57:05.160
I got it. I got mine from Amazon.

718
00:57:05.440 --> 00:57:07.320
Amazon. OK.

719
00:57:08.160 --> 00:57:09.520
Yeah, they don't have it right now.

720
00:57:09.520 --> 00:57:11.640
I got audio. I will check out my library.

721
00:57:13.040 --> 00:57:14.600
Yeah, do that.

722
00:57:14.600 --> 00:57:17.520
All righty, guys, I will see you all in one week.

723
00:57:18.040 --> 00:57:20.000
Have a good week. Thank you. Bye bye.
