Rewriting the Rules of Adversity

podcast Oct 13, 2023

 

Where did the “actually, I can” approach to life begin for Nika? Her husband joins her and explains that her journey with cancer transformed her, and he shares (as only a husband can) that the elements were already inside her and it was extraordinary to see and experience firsthand.

As Nika explains, all the rules are made up so why not write your own? You can do what Nika has done, and that’s what they cover on this episode.

They go back to 2019 and Nika shares how great life was for her at the time. She felt great and her family was well, and her business was successful. Always an optimist, Nika believed being positive in all situations was key to her good life. She embraced challenges the same way. What can I take from this and how can I turn this into something that will make life better was her approach when things didn’t go as planned.

These little touches in a business can make all the difference. They show your clients that you value, hear, and see them, and can even bring a little bit of light into the rest of their day! Going above and beyond doesn't need to be expensive or time-consuming to help set you apart from the crowd - and you'll probably find it fulfilling too! 

What are ways you can offer a "chocolate flower" experience to your customers today?

podcast Oct 12, 2023

Can you rewrite your life’s story and shape your own destiny?

Actually, you can! That’s what I’m sharing on today’s episode.

Listen here:

I am so grateful for all of you who reached out about my health after hearing the first episode of this show. I am well and currently considered cancer-free. For that I am grateful. My journey continues both with medication, and with reconstruction. It’s my new normal and sometimes things don’t go as planned, but overall, I am in a very good place.

Today I want to talk about the power of our words.

We can choose to describe our situation any way we want. It’s literally your choice. I’m not advocating lying to yourself or anyone else. I am encouraging you to write your story. You are not just the actor; you are also the creator of your experience.

Every day we face challenges both tiny and significant. One of the biggest ways I got through my diagnosis and surgeries and associated treatments was by...

How to Create Your Signature System

Uncategorized Sep 18, 2023
 

Wouldn't it be awesome to have your own unique branded system?

Why?

Because it allows you to be consistent and offer predictable results. Having your own unique, personalized, branded signature system, the credibility that you have compared to other people who do what you do, there's just no comparison. 

So what is a Signature System?

A signature system, is like your unique blueprint or framework for helping other people get the results that you provide.. It is your blueprint, your framework, your roadmap. It's how you help your clients. It shows your prospects and clients that you have a solution for them.

You can show up with confidence and say we are going to go through these steps of my blueprint and we're going to get predictable results, because that's what the system was created for.
