What do you do to get under the layer to really get down to those lower levels? Is it just follow-up questions, mindset, worldview, and how that works for you? How'd you get this job anyway? What are things like around here? What did your boss do before they were your boss? Wow did you end up with this job? Why are questions such a big part of This is Strategy? If you had to charge ten times as much as you charge now, what would you do differently? If it had to be free, what would you do differently? Who's it for, and what's it for? What is the change we seek to make? How did you choose the questions for The Strategy Deck? How big is our circle of us? How many people do I care about? Is the change we're making contagious? Are there other ways to gamify the use of questions? Any other thoughts on how questions might be gamified? How do we play games with other people where we're aware of what it would be for them to win and for us to win? What is it that you're challenged by? What is it that you want to share? What is it that you're afraid of? If there isn't a change, then why are we wasting our time? Can you define tension? What kind of haircut do you want? How long has it been since your last haircut? How might one think about intentionally creating that question? What factors should someone think about as they use questions to create tension? How was school today? What is the kind of interaction I'm hoping for over time? How do I ask a different sort of question that over time will be answered with how was school today? Were there any easy questions on your math homework? Did anything good happen at school today? What tension am I here to create? What wrong questions continue to be asked? What temperature is it outside? When the person you could have been meets the person you are becoming, is it going to be a cause for celebration or heartbreak? What are the questions we're going to ask each other? What was life like at the dinner table when you were growing up? What are we really trying to accomplish? How do you have this cogent two sentence explanation of what you do? How many clicks can we get per visit? What would happen if there was a webpage that was designed to get you to leave? What were the questions that were being asked by people in authority at Yahoo in 1999? How did the stock do today? Is anything broken? What can you do today that will make the stock go up tomorrow? What are risks worth taking? What are we doing that might not work but that supports our mission? What was the last thing you did that didn't work, and what did we learn from it? What have we done to so delight our core customers that they're telling other people? How has your international circle informed your life of questions? What do I believe that other people don't believe? What do I see that other people don't see? What do I take for granted that other people don't take for granted? What would blank do? What would Bob do? What would Jill do? What would Susan do? What happened to them? What system are they in that made them decide that that was the right thing to do? And then how do we change the system? How given the state of the world, do you manage to continue to care as much as you do? Do you walk to school or take your lunch? If you all can only care if things are going well, then what does that mean about caring? Should I have spent the last 50 years curled up in a ball? How do we go to the foundation and create community action?…

I have gotten so many questions in my DMs since announcing my return from a seven month sabbatical, and this episode is dedicated to answering those questions for you! I'm covering everything from what my business looked like while I was away to how my physical health has improved over the last few months.

In this episode, we cover… Why I took a sabbatical and how I knew when it was time to come back How I adjusted to having less structure and routine The phases of my sabbatical My take on why other entrepreneurs have taken breaks What my business looked like during the sabbatical The physical health struggles I've dealt with and how things have improved. Quotes "It wasn't nourishing because I didn't have stability. I didn't have support. I didn't have community. The work for me to heal was facing every skeleton in my closet and stripping myself of my entire identity and everything I'd ever known." "It was very challenging in terms of going from 100 miles an hour to zero miles an hour." "You know what you have now. You know what's in front of you. And if you know that what's in front of you is not it, then you have no other choice but to try new and rest assured knowing you can always go back to what currently is. But something tells me you won't."

In this episode, we cover… • What does it mean to feel stuck • Letting go of situations, we have no control over • Setting up your business for growth • How overwhelm and burnout play into feeling stuck • Recognizing underlying contradictory beliefs • Navigating this stuckness "Sometimes, this is just a label for a period where not much is happening. It doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong or you're not capable of doing what you could do before." "Many of us tend to freak out and feel like, " Oh my gosh, okay, I don't have the same momentum or sales as I was before, you know, so I must be stuck. And that almost creates the reality that didn't exist for you." "The definition of stagnation is continuing to do the same things. And being very hesitant to change and essentially adapt as you go right." "Comparison makes you feel stuck. It doesn't mean you are stuck." "The mentality of being stuck is almost always what is fueling 99% of your stuckness. Right?"

This episode was chosen very intentionally as an episode that I know everyone needs to hear right now whether for the first or second time, so tune in and enjoy! *Listen to the original Episode 113 - Part 2 once you finish this episode!* This episode is on what to do if you feel like your success is a fluke, and there is a lot to this conversation! Because this episode is a long one, we’ve broken it into two separate episodes to make it easier for you to take in. This is Part 1, so make sure to tune into Part 2 when you are finished listening. We are diving into the feeling that your success is a fluke - something that so many entrepreneurs feel at some point in their journey. I go deep into why this thought might be occurring for you, as well as addressing how you can start to shift away from this mentality by understanding the origins and taking action to change your mindset. I’m sharing the ways that your beliefs and perspectives, your brain, and even your business structure can play into you questioning your own success, and give you the tools you need to start believing in yourself and your business for good. In this episode, we cover… • What it means to feel like your success is a fluke • Six possible factors that contribute to this mentality (imposter syndrome, perfectionism, arguing for your limitations, safety/fear of success, low self-image, low self-worth) • How your beliefs impact how you view your successes • Shifting your perspective to focus more on where you want to go Quotes “What would have to happen for you to believe that you can keep doing your success? ‘Believe’ is the keyword there. What proof do you need? How do you need to feel? What would have to happen for you to believe that you are contributing to the success and can keep doing it?” "You cannot listen to and you cannot believe everything you think.” "Ultimately, your success was always up to you. Your results were always up to you… You are the one that showed up every f***ing day. You are the one that pushed through in those hard times. You are the one that came up with those creative ideas."

Successful high-ticket launches and booked-out services with waitlists are not luck or a fluke. A lot of things come into play when entrepreneurs see success in their business and sales. There are skills and strategies involved, and one of these highly effective strategies is psychology around sales and buyer types. Implementing marketing strategies that speak to all buyer types has been proven to benefit sales in your business. Today's guest Natasha Zoryk is a business mentor who has scaled her business to achieve massive growth, reaching $200k + launches (without even posting on her IG Grid). Natasha has mastered the tactics of sales psychology and buyer types. In this episode, Natasha breaks down the different buyer types and explains the psychology of selling to each type effectively. In this episode, we cover… • The four different buyer types • Where most people get stuck in the sales process • How to implement sales psychology • Creating content to target each buyer type • How to sell high-ticket without posting every day "A lot of people say, sell the way you would buy. I couldn't agree less with that. Because no, that's the issue, you sell the way you think people will buy, but you don't know them. The best thing about sales psych is its customization to the person. It's not about you; it's about them." "You have to be consistent in the beginning but test things out. Don't let anyone ever tell you, you have to do something and believe there is only one way. There are 1,000,001 ways to scale and be successful. I'm living proof, and you're living proof."

Today we're going to be talking about a whole different way of standing out and how to position yourself and position your business as a high-level, high-ticket, go-to brand in your industry. In this episode, I will discuss a bunch of different strategies that, when combined, will impress people at every stage and build that unwavering 'go-to person' brand reputation. In this episode, we cover… • Highlighting your authority & positioning yourself • What a stand out factor is • What makes a person a go-to person • Character traits to embody • Personal brand & likeability • Building a high-quality reputation "There are many go-to people. Not everyone is a go-to person, right? There are many go-to people in every nook and cranny of a certain type of market that you have positioned yourself into and dominated. Still, I'm never going to compare a high-level luxury vibe designer to a designer that's known for like her playful template shop. And that's the corner of the market that she dominated. They can both be the go-to, but you have to decide intentionally how you're going to position yourself within the designer market, and then go and dominate that." "No one is the go-to person that sits on the sidelines, and that sits on the bench, and that doesn't play, and that doesn't show up, right? The go-to person is visible. Everyone knows who they are. They're known for both their skill set and their execution in just this unmatched way that makes them, even when the competition knows about them.” Thanks for listening, and if you like what you’ve heard, feel free to share this episode with your friends!

This is a replay of a top downloaded and raved-about favorite episode from the past few years! This episode was chosen very intentionally as an episode that I know everyone needs to hear right now whether for the first or second time, so tune in and enjoy! Building a business is a lot of work, especially in the beginning 'solopreneur' stage. We often have a lot on our plate, and we tend to put consistent pressure on ourselves. Experiencing burnout, overwhelm, and chronic stress is all too familiar in the entrepreneurial space; however, understanding what you're experiencing, how it's affecting you, and your limits are crucial for preventing the physical and mental effects of long-term stress. In this episode, we are diving into all things around burnout and chronic stress as an entrepreneur with Dr. Amanda Chay. Dr. Amanda Chay is a Naturopathic Physician, store owner, and business consultant for wellness professionals. Running a busy clinic, online education platform, and brick & mortar store, she realized the most common cause of hormone imbalance and chronic disease was chronic stress. Her background as both a doctor and owner/founder of multiple corporations has made her an expert in optimizing wellness and peak performance in body, mind, and business. In this episode, we cover… Chronic stress: What it means and how to identify it Recognizing the signs of burnout The difference between chronic stress and burnout The connection between cortisol and inflammation Actionable steps for recovery from burnout Setting and defining boundaries for preventing overwhelm and stress "When you're in that chronic fight or flight mode, like you have so much on your plate, you were late for the bus, or you got in a fight with your spouse, whatever it is, all these little things, our bodies start increasing cortisol. So you're always in this kind of high cortisol state. And that's when people tend to feel more anxious and overwhelmed, tired, but wired." "burnout is so hard to define because it's not actually like a medical condition. I think of it as typically, like low crash cortisol." "I think as entrepreneurs, we're always in the thinking, growing, expanding kind of phase in our mind. It's like, oh, what's next? What other cool things could I do? It's hard, I think, for entrepreneurs to be in the moment of being like, look at what I have and what's here. I think we're always kind of chasing the next thing. And that makes it hard just to calm down and be in the moment."

This is a replay of a top downloaded and raved-about favorite episode from the past few years! This episode was chosen very intentionally as an episode that I know everyone needs to hear right now whether for the first or second time, so tune in and enjoy! Welcome to the first little reveal of my new brand. If you're listening to this episode in real-time - over the next few weeks, you'll be seeing my current company grow and expand. The motto of my new brand is 'made for more,' and my word of the year for 2022 is 'bigger.' I'm paralleling together this idea of deep knowing and craving more. I know every one of you has had a tipping point where you realized that you were 'made for more, and that is probably what led you to begin this entrepreneurial journey. In this episode, I break down my ideas and theory behind the three puzzle pieces to achieve your 'made for more' life. I dive into my journey a little bit and share how I used these concepts to achieve the life I live today. In this episode, we cover… • Made it VS Made for more • Limits - Is it possible? • Going against the societal norms • Your desires are your truths • Chasing after your calling "I know that if I were to do a raise of hands, every single one of you would be like, how the hell did I even get sucked into this weird entrepreneur, space, and world? Like, how did I get here, there was a moment in time where you realized you were made for more, and it started at all, for every single one of us" "I knew I was made for more, and I refuse to believe that what I had was it. I knew I had to jump in to see what was possible, to see what I was made of. I wanted to push the boundaries, push these edges to see what was more." “I want you to ask yourself, Where have I set limits for what's possible in my life? What do I believe? As of right now, in this moment, don't correct yourself but ask yourself, what do I believe as of right now is not possible for me?” Thanks for listening, and if you like what you’ve heard, feel free to share this episode with your friends!

I am the first one to admit I overcomplicate almost everything in my life down to small details surrounding my day to day. So why do we overcomplicate things and why do we try to justify those complications instead of working on our thought patterns and well-being? Well, in this episode we jump into fine print questions, solutions, and everything in between! We can give ourselves a million excuses of why we do and think the way we do, but the simplest answer is we have to STOP making excuses and start actually doing the hard tasks of working on simplifying the simple details in our life. In this episode, we cover… A few ways we overthink small things Why we believe complicated is better than simple How chaos in our childhood may impact how we overcomplicate things Why getting your thoughts down on paper can help Questions to ask yourself to make sure you aren't overcomplicating your decisions “Society has trained us to overcomplicate things by essentially working longer hours or always doing the most.” “If there is a simple solution, it may not turn out or have all the factors the exact way that we want it.” “If you grew up in a chaotic environment for many many years, there’s a chance that your nervous system may feel more comfortable in that chaotic environment.” Thanks for listening, and if you like what you've heard, feel free to share this episode with your friends!

This is a replay of a top downloaded and raved-about favorite episode from the past few years. This episode was chosen very intentionally as an episode that I know everyone needs to hear right now whether for the first or second time, so tune in and enjoy! Do you have what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur? The short answer is YES. The long answer is that you need to understand the habits and traits of success and make them part of who you are and how you operate to achieve your version of success. In this episode, I am giving you the top 11 habits and traits that every successful entrepreneur has, what makes them necessary for success, and why you are 1,000% capable of making these a part of your own journey toward success. I’m also deep-diving into how we can start looking at success as a state of being, the importance of pushing ourselves out of our comfort zone, and which habits of success make some people rise quickly and others get stuck. In this episode, we cover… • Why success is not the end goal • Finding the patterns of success versus failure in entrepreneurs • Being willing to do the things that others are not • Why the path to success is not a sexy one • What discipline, endurance, confidence, and failure have in common “What makes people successful is, in essence, pushing the boundaries of what you're capable of, what you believe, and what you're comfortable with. Embracing failure again and again and again with excitement. To just be better ... and shifting the perspective of looking at success as a milestone and instead, looking at it as a trait, a state of being that you want to embody and become.” - Amanda Kolbye Thanks for listening, and if you like what you've heard, feel free to share this episode with your friends!
