Welcome to Episode 101 of the Your Next Move Podcast! In today’s episode, I dive into a mindset framework that will help you transform the way you approach your goals. Whether you're facing a career shift, trying to improve your personal life, or pursuing new business goals, this episode will show you how flipping your mindset can lead to faster success with less stress.

I introduce the Be-Do-Have Model—a powerful tool for anyone looking to reach their goals. The key is understanding that to achieve anything, you must first BE the person who achieves it, then DO the necessary actions, and finally, you will HAVE the desired outcome. Too often, people approach it in reverse: waiting for the “have” before taking action.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • Why most people get the Be-Do-Have model wrong, and how this keeps them stuck.
  • How fear and hesitation can prevent you from stepping into the ideal version of yourself.
  • The Courage Driven Mindset Framework—a new coaching method I use to help clients (and myself!) shift their mindset and take decisive action.
  • The 3 actionable steps to shift your mindset: Recognize, Reframe, and Respond.
  • Why consistency is key in applying the Be-Do-Have model to your life.

You’ll also get a behind-the-scenes peek into my personal growth journey and how I’m shifting my mindset in my own life.

Listen in and learn how to:

  • Move past the waiting game and start being the person who achieves their goals now.
  • Tackle fear and self-doubt to start taking bold actions instead of staying stuck in thinking mode.
  • Use the Courage Driven Mindset Framework to reframe challenges and respond with confidence.

At the end of the episode, I challenge you to apply the Be-Do-Have model to your goals. Take action today and see what shifts.

With so many initiatives telling minority communities they're not represented, not included, and not able to make a particular income, what if we could flip the narrative and say, “What if someone could give you the upper hand?"

Tune in as Sherrell Dorsey, founder and CEO of The Plug, gets the conversation started for families and communities traditionally not included in the dialogue around tech and the future of work. As the CEO of a distinctive black tech news and insight platform covering black pioneers in tech, venture capital, and work policy, Sherrell is changing the idea of who gets to be an innovator and genius and where these conversations exist.

Don’t miss Sherrell’s tips for anyone interested in launching a company in tech and why it’s time for the black and brown community to take the upper hand.

How the pandemic positively and negatively affected the world of work

Why we need the “Upper Hand”

Bridging the gap of the innovation language barrier

“When I thought about what is my goal, I want people to feel like they are empowered to participate in the future of work. That they wouldn't be a victim of it.”
