This isn’t something I normally dive into outside of my private client interactions, but it’s such a game changer that I wanted to pull back the curtain and give you a glimpse into how this works. The majority of people I work with are doing. They’re not sitting around waiting for something to happen. In most cases, the things they’re doing aren’t producing the desired results. They’ve read the books, taken online courses, listened to podcasts, but the strategies fail to meet their needs of the moment.
