The Most Important Word - Audio Podcast

There is something that is rarely talked about in the business world and I want to start building more attention for it.

That thing is self-awareness.

I’m upset that the narrative these days is that everyone needs to be number one, own a company, be in charge. A lot of people are going to lose that way.

Self-awareness allows people to recognize what things they do best so they can then go hard on those aspects of their life. It also helps you accept your weaknesses.

What works for one person doesn’t work for everyone. I want people to learn to be at peace with themselves, to understand what they can offer, because everyone’s got something. The key, however, is learning how to find it.

Self-awareness can help you do that.

Self-awareness is being able to accept your weaknesses while focusing all of your attention on your strengths.

The moment you decide to accept your shortcomings and bet entirely on your strengths, things will change. Trust me.

The Importance of Self-Awareness

Hard Work & Patience

This&nbsp;is the first of a new&nbsp;episode format that I'm going to be releasing more often: business meetings! Unedited from start to&nbsp;beginning!&nbsp;I wanted to give all you listeners a&nbsp;peek into I how conduct meetings and&nbsp;what it's like to be in a strategy meeting with me and my team. &nbsp;In this first&nbsp;installment of meetings, I sit down and talk with&nbsp;The Eighth, a fairly new retail business attacking the white space they saw in the men's luxury underwear market. We discuss their early days in researching and&nbsp;identifying the market, luxury&nbsp;branding, SEM and&nbsp;SEO approaches, influencer marketing, content creation&nbsp;and the importance of documenting versus creating. For the listeners&nbsp;that have asked in the past, this is some really good insight into how I approach &nbsp;introductory&nbsp;business meetings, evaluate the viability of new businesses, and suggest marketing strategies. Thanks for listening, excited to hear your thoughts and learnings from this one.

Another version of the call-in shooooooooww! This one is short, sweet, and POWERFUL. I'm super excited about this format because it allows me to develop real context with the questions and the people asking them. I get a feel for their energy, we can elaborate and discuss more detail, and all in all it's just a much better cadence. Let me know what you think of this !! &nbsp; &nbsp;

How your employees feel doesn’t depend on the free granola, or fancy amenities. Here’s what I really think about all those goodies. It narrows down to feeling safe and letting them know they have room to grow. It’s true, it really is. If your company has issues, installing a water fountain with a thousand flavors, or a beer tap isn’t going to cover it up and make everything all better. It comes down to the people and how they feel. Enjoy this one and think about what your company instills.
