Manage episode 375473252 series 2889196
Welcome back to the show, everyone! I am truly excited to bring this interview to you, conversation with my good friend and inspirational mentor, Todd Herman! Todd has truly been helping me achieve my potential and become the best possible version of myself for years now.
I hope that you’ll tune in because, while this is an interview in which Todd talks about himself and answers some of your burning questions, it’s also very much a journey of growth and transformation, a journey on which I hope you’ll join me. Based on the concept of his book The Alter Ego Effect, Todd and I dive deep into creating an alter ego identity that can help me expand as an entrepreneur and think bigger. Todd reveals much about the visionary side of my personal style of entrepreneurship.
He then helps me probe even further to uncover the attributes holding me back in that visionary role. While it is certainly a bit uncomfortable, Todd encourages all of us to be bold and to seek out bigger opportunities by expressing my visions and wants more clearly, even if and maybe even especially if discomfort is part of the process.
Working together, we identify the key traits that my alter ego persona would embody to help me break through: being a bold, authentic and strong decision maker. If I can connect to the right inspiration and build the right rituals, Todd explains how this alternate identity can become a tool for me to expand as an entrepreneur. I'm really excited to put this into practice and see where it takes me and, again, hope that you will listen in!
