• Here’s my first draft — entitled: The CEO who cleaned toilets

    There once was a business owner who thought she was a CEO.

    She owned a retail store where she did everything…

    from bookkeeping, purchasing, selling, making displays, hiring, firing –She even cleaned the toilets!! She was exhausted trying to do everything herself even tho…Read More

    • I think this is mostly there overall – I just want to ask – (because I am learning) is the ‘thought reversal’ clear enough? You USED to be the CEO and then needed to focus on your daughter and to your SURPRISE – the business grew – but WHY & HOW – I “think” needs to be addressed – so people can understand how you can help them.

    • what is WLPM? I think you need to just say it – work less, profit more because you are diving into another acronym with GROW.

    • Can you tie this back to toilets? After all, you started your business for freedom, even if you are not the one currently cleaning the toilets like I was! Let’s partner together and build your self-running business engine.

    • such an impactful story

  • This idea comes from somatic movement – 1st you have to yield (relax) to gather your resources and push/stretch to an action or goal. I thought I would get people’s feedback. And I’m thinking about using my recent accident as part of some articles. Might as well try and make lemonade. 🙂

    • Love this. There is an expression in recovery “don’t just sit there, do nothing” which I love. Or as my parter’s uncle who is a doctor is prone to say…”sometimes you have to go slow to go fast” (usually related to healing)

      • Thanks Whitney, I love this quote, ”sometimes you have to go slow to go fast”. I’m not sure if it might be a little repetitive to 1or2, but worse case, it can be a substitute. In the meantime, it is a great statement that I think everyone can elate to. Thank you so much for sharing.

    • Love this Joel, also I think :
      Relaxing allows room for healing
      Often time healing from injury and disease is about connecting to the body

    • What Whitney said – I was also told “Don’t just do something, sit there,” as in take the time to feel into what is happening and allow yourself some space/time before acting, rather than what we are usually pushed to do is “don’t just sit there, do something!”.

    • mistake 2 is good!

    • One of the mistakes that I have made is not recognizing my body’s cues or signals that I need to rest or relax. It took me many years to recognize those little cues so that I could sit and do nothing to give my body the time it needed to heal.

  • available Thu between 11-1 or 2-5 EST to brainstorm

  • I’ve already put these questions into my Calendly link. At the moment, I’m totally experimenting, and I anticipating changing them. I already considering using some of Ann B’s questions instead of mine. And while I’ve asked the financial question @Q10, I haven’t tied a number to it yet.

    Q2: What are the most important changes you want to make i…Read More

    • Not sure how I would answer this question: : What is the State or Feeling that would make your problem impossible to have?
      Q10, you have to give a price for this question. Is it $200 a month or a session? I wouldn’t be able to answer if there is not a dollar figure tied to it.

      • Thanks, Amy! I know Q3 “make your problem impossible to have” can be a headscratcher. It is designed to throw people a little bit outside their box, and might be better as a question asked during a Zoom call. I’m just testing it here. Thanks, again!

        • Q3 is so much better than what we looked at last Wednesday!

        • Great progress, Joel. I got some feedback myself last week that led me to eliminate a question. It was basically Are you willing to get vulnerable and playful in service of showing up as your most confident self . . . The feedback made me realize I was moving too fast, trying to move people along before I had established trust.

    • Q3 would you consider asking if (said problem) was not present what would you imagine you would experience?

      • Also Q6-are you open to consider just keeping it a question only, not the qualifier?

      • Thanks Tracy. I’ve asked them just to consider the question, rather than make it a requirement. I’ll leave it that way for now. And I have no problem removing it. It could easily be asked during the chat rather than in the form.
