Creating More Presence Through our Why with Annine Massaro
05/18/21 • 41 min
1 Listener
Annine had a special bond with her father; they were so connected that they were even business partners. After he passed, Annine decided to say yes to everything, and the result was quite impressive; she experienced extraordinary growth. But at some point, it started to feel overwhelming for her. One of her breakthrough moments happened after she started saying no and honing in on the areas of extreme passion.
Today I'm joined by Annine Massaro, she is a former corporate lawyer, an artist, a poet, a coach, and a mentor. One of Annine's passions is to coach writers struggling with their writing, helping them to overcome writer's block and creating tools to help them get the creative juices flowing. She has a background in aromatherapy, and she is also a herbalist. Her vision is to help people incorporate healthy, spiritual, and mindful habits in a fun way.
In this episode, we talked about Annine's several breakthroughs in her life and how they changed her life's perspective. We also talked about following our passions and questioning our WHY. She shared some brilliant insights on the world's current situation and what she believes we learned from the pandemic. She talked about the rebranding of her products, more focused on her vision and why, or as she said, not playing anymore, but playful.

Breaking Through Ourselves First to Change Everything Else with Sarah Tugender
One of the things Sarah Tugender always knew was that she didn't want to be put in a box, and that's why she chose entrepreneurship. Still, she realized that people would still put her in a box when she decided to be an influencer to make a stream of revenue from everything she was selling. Therefore, she thought, to change our circumstances, we must change the people around us, our atmosphere. But we can't (and perhaps we shouldn't) change people; the solution then might be to swap them out for new people.
Sarah's breakthrough is that the transformation must start with her before it does with anything else; that was one of the hardest lessons she learned: it must be in her first.
Today's guest is Sarah Tugender; she is a Trainer, Speaker, Internet Marketer, Entrepreneur, Wife, and Mother of 3 kids. She holds a BS in Mass Communication and Public Relations from Boston University. Sarah was born when her father was a first-year medical student, and she grew up in hospitals and healthcare practices, playing with her dolls in the break room of the Sinai Hospital. For 15 years, Sarah combined her passion for healthcare and communications and marketing to create dozens of systems and processes designed to free time in practitioners' schedules and avoid burnout.
In this episode, we talked about Sarah's breakthrough, how she came to it, her relationship with her father, and how was the experience of growing up playing in hospitals. Sarah kindly shared her vision on balance in life, instinct, and staying in a visionary role. We also talked about how she manages to succeed in her career and be present for her three kids and husband. We talked about her rituals and the learnings she took from her job to her personal life.
Some Questions I Ask:
- And what breakthroughs did you have along the way? (2:13)
- How did you get started with the nutraMetrix business? (12:10)
- How are you managing the time you spend working and the time you dedicate to your family? (19:11)
- Do you have a practice or a ritual that you do in the morning or in the evening? (21:37)
In This Episode, You Will Learn:
- Why is it important to trust our guts on breakthroughs (4:42)
- What happens to us at a young age has an effect on our lives (12:17)
- Prevention is hard to sell (15:39)
- The importance of scheduling priorities rather than prioritizing the schedule (19:19)
