Hey, everyone, I'm Kelly Mobic, a coach and a

Unknown: 00:00:04

leadership trainer. And I'm super passionate about helping

Unknown: 00:00:08

you find out who you are authentically as a leader, own

Unknown: 00:00:12

it, and go out and make an impact in your life and the

Unknown: 00:00:15

lives of others. This world needs your leadership, your

Unknown: 00:00:18

gifts, your unique brilliance. And I believe that real leaders

Unknown: 00:00:22

don't wait. They create. I know firsthand that life is going to

Unknown: 00:00:26

throw us curveballs that we're going to doubt our greatness,

Unknown: 00:00:29

our ideas and our contributions. And my goal is that you believe

Unknown: 00:00:34

in yourself beyond reason. And I get to be a coach and a champion

Unknown: 00:00:38

Unknown: 00:00:47

world.

Unknown: 00:00:48

So let's jump in. Hey, there, everyone, this is Coach Kelly,

Unknown: 00:00:53

welcome to episode 163. Of let's be honest, before we start

Unknown: 00:00:59

pretending, and I want to say Happy June, here we are in June,

Unknown: 00:01:07

can you even believe it? I cannot. So happy June, I am

Unknown: 00:01:12

super excited to be continuing our conversation about

Unknown: 00:01:17

intention, which we did all over may all over May, we started off

Unknown: 00:01:23

with what is intention and utilizing the three Ds to It's a

Unknown: 00:01:29

framework to really be intentional, and that was

Unknown: 00:01:33

declared, deciding, declaring and do it. We also then went

Unknown: 00:01:38

into getting clear on your intention. And what goes into

Unknown: 00:01:43

that the four components of intention, looking at what is it

Unknown: 00:01:48

you want your vision, your outcome, getting clear on your

Unknown: 00:01:51

purpose, and why it's important to you. Really, where's your

Unknown: 00:01:55

focus and your energy? And what's your commitment. And that

Unknown: 00:02:00

was really designed to help you be able to get clear on your

Unknown: 00:02:03

intention, because sometimes we get stuck. And then we talked

Unknown: 00:02:07

about becoming masterful at being intentional. And looking

Unknown: 00:02:12

at how you do that by really checking in and seeing what are

Unknown: 00:02:16

the results I'm creating, not just the ones I am creating. But

Unknown: 00:02:19

the ones that I'm not that I'm not creating that I keep saying

Unknown: 00:02:23

I want so that you can really become masterful in being

Unknown: 00:02:27

intentional in with intention, utilizing that as a tool. And I

Unknown: 00:02:32

don't know if you guys are all getting the gist here. But

Unknown: 00:02:35

intention is everything. And it really helps us so much in our

Unknown: 00:02:41

lives taking the lead in it. Okay, so I'm gonna talk about

Unknown: 00:02:44

that in a minute. We then had an amazing guest, Tracy Hewitt, who

Unknown: 00:02:49

came on and talked with us about intentional leadership, and

Unknown: 00:02:54

parenting, being able to create relationships with your

Unknown: 00:02:58

children, all the way through adulthood that is full of joy,

Unknown: 00:03:03

really great episodes. So much fun having Tracy on the podcast.

Unknown: 00:03:07

And then we wrapped up may with intentional leadership and your

Unknown: 00:03:12

relationships. And we talked about the three C's on having

Unknown: 00:03:17

intentional relationships with which really has a look at our

Unknown: 00:03:20

communication, trust and commitment. And that was a

Unknown: 00:03:25

really fun episode. And so again, like I'm saying, I don't

Unknown: 00:03:28

know if you guys are getting the gist here. But intention is

Unknown: 00:03:30

everything. And this podcast is about taking the lead in your

Unknown: 00:03:34

life and not living by circumstance, not living

Unknown: 00:03:37

circumstances lead you but really being intentional and in

Unknown: 00:03:41

ownership about your life and what it is that you want to

Unknown: 00:03:45

create in it. And so I'm continuing with the theme called

Unknown: 00:03:51

intention. And we're gonna go all the way through June with

Unknown: 00:03:55

this all the way through June because and you may notice that

Unknown: 00:03:58

we're now moving into intentional leadership, right?

Unknown: 00:04:02

Because again, this is a podcast about taking the lead in your

Unknown: 00:04:06

life, right. And that is about being a leader that is about

Unknown: 00:04:09

leadership. And so, leadership is also about ownership. And we

Unknown: 00:04:14

want to be in ownership for what it is that we are generating in

Unknown: 00:04:21

our life, okay, we are always going to have circumstances,

Unknown: 00:04:24

they are always going to be around us and some of them are

Unknown: 00:04:28

hard and heavy and some of them are a little bit lighter, a

Unknown: 00:04:31

little bit easier, but we're always going to have them and we

Unknown: 00:04:34

are at choice on our attitudes and the way in which we view

Unknown: 00:04:39

them and move through them. And it really requires us being

Unknown: 00:04:44

intentional. And so in June, I am super excited to share with

Unknown: 00:04:48

you today. This episode is for our entrepreneurs out there.

Unknown: 00:04:53

You're a business owner, this episode is for you because there

Unknown: 00:04:58

are three things that I think are so Essential in being a

Unknown: 00:05:01

business owner slash entrepreneur, owning your own

Unknown: 00:05:04

business, okay? Whether it's small or large, right? It's

Unknown: 00:05:08

important. Now, it is not an episode where I'm going to tell

Unknown: 00:05:11

you how to be an entrepreneur how to create a business, we can

Unknown: 00:05:17

talk about that in future episodes, for sure. But these

Unknown: 00:05:21

are the things where you're already out there. You're a

Unknown: 00:05:23

business owner, you're an entrepreneur, and you might want

Unknown: 00:05:25

to hear this, they may not be the things that you think I

Unknown: 00:05:29

might be talking about, but we're going to talk about that

Unknown: 00:05:31

and how intention plays into it. And then next week, I have a

Unknown: 00:05:36

fantastic guest coming on, who is going to be talking with us

Unknown: 00:05:41

about intentional careers. So good, she's an empowerment

Unknown: 00:05:44

coach. And you're going to love hearing what she has to say. So

Unknown: 00:05:48

this is for people who are in the job force and looking to

Unknown: 00:05:53

make moves in their career or looking to you know, be more

Unknown: 00:05:57

intentional about having fulfillment in their life where

Unknown: 00:06:01

having a job is a large part of our life. So it's a great

Unknown: 00:06:04

episode, we're then going to have a guest who is a

Unknown: 00:06:08

nutritionist and registered dietitian. She's fantastic.

Unknown: 00:06:13

She's going to come on and talk about intentional health, right,

Unknown: 00:06:18

intentional health and how we really take care of ourselves,

Unknown: 00:06:21

especially as we're aging. So I'm super excited to have her

Unknown: 00:06:25

on. It's such a juicy, good episode. And we're gonna wrap up

Unknown: 00:06:29

June with another guest. And this episode is for the ladies

Unknown: 00:06:35

because we're going to talk about intention and your journey

Unknown: 00:06:40

through menopause. So we're going to address perimenopause,

Unknown: 00:06:44

menopause, post menopause, and I have an amazing, fantastic

Unknown: 00:06:48

guest. And we're going to talk about this and y'all are going

Unknown: 00:06:51

to see where intention absolutely is at the core of

Unknown: 00:06:57

living and leaving our lives with fulfillment, joy, as much

Unknown: 00:07:02

of that as we can create, and really being an impact in our

Unknown: 00:07:05

life and in other's lives. Right. So I'm super excited. And

Unknown: 00:07:09

I already have July planned, I'm going to be honest, before I

Unknown: 00:07:13

start pretending there's gonna be some more intention in there,

Unknown: 00:07:16

but the topics are so great. So okay, uh, you know, it's the

Unknown: 00:07:20

beginning of June, I had to tell you what was coming this month.

Unknown: 00:07:23

And I'm super excited. It is very, very full of guests, which

Unknown: 00:07:26

I love. And they are experts in their fields, and they are going

Unknown: 00:07:30

to be bringing you so much knowledge, so much wisdom to

Unknown: 00:07:34

really help you have that fulfillment in your life and

Unknown: 00:07:38

being in lead it being taking the lead in your life with

Unknown: 00:07:41

intention. So today, what I wanted to talk with you all

Unknown: 00:07:44

about is intentional leadership and your business. So again,

Unknown: 00:07:48

this is for my business owners out there. This is for my

Unknown: 00:07:51

entrepreneurs, which y'all know, I am an entrepreneur, I do own

Unknown: 00:07:55

my own business very specifically, I am a leadership

Unknown: 00:07:59

coach, and I work with entrepreneurs, I work with women

Unknown: 00:08:04

who are looking to take the lead in their life through it with a

Unknown: 00:08:08

group coaching program called lifter, you all have heard me

Unknown: 00:08:11

talk about that. And most of my one on one clients are usually

Unknown: 00:08:16

people that are entrepreneurs, and also some people who, you

Unknown: 00:08:22

know, work in companies and are looking at leveling up their

Unknown: 00:08:26

leadership, right. And so I myself, have my own business, I

Unknown: 00:08:31

am an entrepreneur, I have made a ton of mistakes all along the

Unknown: 00:08:35

way and have learned from them, which is why I want to talk with

Unknown: 00:08:39

you about being intentional in your business today. Because I

Unknown: 00:08:43

think it's super important, as I have also created a ton of

Unknown: 00:08:46

success. So I think that there's three areas that are really

Unknown: 00:08:52

important as business owners. Now again, this is not how to be

Unknown: 00:08:56

a business owner, and all the different places that you've got

Unknown: 00:09:00

to look to have a successful business. This is really three

Unknown: 00:09:05

areas that I think contribute to you being fulfilled to you

Unknown: 00:09:13

having boundaries to you having harmony in your life, to you

Unknown: 00:09:19

helping create a bigger impact the one that you want to make.

Unknown: 00:09:24

And so we're not going to be talking about your mission and

Unknown: 00:09:28

your purpose and your values and your goals. The people, your

Unknown: 00:09:32

systems, your measures, your marketing, we're not going to

Unknown: 00:09:34

talk about that. However, all of that is extremely important. And

Unknown: 00:09:38

we've talked about some of that in other episodes, and we can

Unknown: 00:09:41

certainly bring that in and talk about it in future episodes. But

Unknown: 00:09:45

I'm going to talk about one of the categories is your well

Unknown: 00:09:48

being okay. And two of the other categories directly contribute

Unknown: 00:09:54

to your well being. And so here's we're going to talk about

Unknown: 00:09:58

being intentional with your time Time, being intentional with

Unknown: 00:10:02

your finances, and being intentional with your well

Unknown: 00:10:05

being. And here's why. Because time and finances typically, are

Unknown: 00:10:10

usually the two things that I really when I'm working with my

Unknown: 00:10:15

entrepreneur clients are a lot of the things that we're really

Unknown: 00:10:19

looking at and, and working through, you know, not every

Unknown: 00:10:23

single call not every single session, but it'll come up, it

Unknown: 00:10:26

will come up. And, you know, oftentimes we've got to make

Unknown: 00:10:30

some shifts in that. Because when you own your own business,

Unknown: 00:10:33

oftentimes you feel like, I gotta work it 24/7. And here's

Unknown: 00:10:37

the thing, we do eat, breathe and sleep our businesses, we

Unknown: 00:10:40

can't help it. However, we've got to really make sure that our

Unknown: 00:10:44

well being is intact, so that we can create so much more

Unknown: 00:10:48

fulfillment, and really drive that mission that we the reason

Unknown: 00:10:53

we have our business to begin with, really drive that to

Unknown: 00:10:56

success. Okay. And so, one, so I'm going to, I'm going to start

Unknown: 00:11:00

with, I think I'm going to start with time, let's start with

Unknown: 00:11:03

time. First, because being intentional about your time

Unknown: 00:11:08

means that you are really creating some systems for

Unknown: 00:11:13

yourself, to manage yourself with the time that you have. All

Unknown: 00:11:20

right, notice what I'm saying manage yourself with the time

Unknown: 00:11:23

that you have, okay? Not managing time, because guess

Unknown: 00:11:26

what time is going to tick, tick, tick, tick all day all the

Unknown: 00:11:30

way through. And so I always giggle with time management,

Unknown: 00:11:34

because it's not where you really can't manage time, but

Unknown: 00:11:37

what we're managing is ourselves. So we've got to be

Unknown: 00:11:40

intentional. We've got to start our weeks, really looking at

Unknown: 00:11:45

what's ahead of us. What is ahead of this, and what is my

Unknown: 00:11:49

intention? Where do I want to land at the end of the week,

Unknown: 00:11:52

now, here's the thing, you can take that by year, by quarter by

Unknown: 00:11:57

month, by week by day, okay, I'm a big fan of what I like to call

Unknown: 00:12:03

chunking things down, or breaking things down into, you

Unknown: 00:12:07

know, smaller steps, bite sized pieces, whatever you want to

Unknown: 00:12:10

call that, and doing that with our time. So one of the things

Unknown: 00:12:15

that I want to share with you in being intentional is as a

Unknown: 00:12:18

business owner, make sure that you have what I like to call

Unknown: 00:12:22

your CEO day. And your it could be your creation day. For some

Unknown: 00:12:30

people who are content creators, it could be content creation

Unknown: 00:12:32

day. But like having a day, that's your co day that you're

Unknown: 00:12:37

going to work on your business, right rather than in the

Unknown: 00:12:43

business, you're going to work on the business, on your CEO

Unknown: 00:12:47

day. Personally, I like that to be Monday, that is my favorite

Unknown: 00:12:50

day, to have content creation day because I like to take a

Unknown: 00:12:54

look at the landscape ahead and see what's wanted and needed.

Unknown: 00:12:58

This is also a business development day. For me. This is

Unknown: 00:13:03

also looking at the time blocks that I'm going to require making

Unknown: 00:13:08

sure that I have the breaks that are going to be wanted and

Unknown: 00:13:11

needed, making sure that the schedules are intact, and

Unknown: 00:13:18

removing any distractions that possibly could happen. Okay.

Unknown: 00:13:22

See, oh Day is a day that I probably am going to take a look

Unknown: 00:13:25

at some finances because here's the thing, what we measure

Unknown: 00:13:29

grows, right? So I'm going to look at things that are

Unknown: 00:13:32

important as the CEO in my business and in my life that are

Unknown: 00:13:36

supporting this business moving forward. And that's every

Unknown: 00:13:39

Monday, I do not work with clients on Monday. I don't do

Unknown: 00:13:42

it. That's Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, those are full

Unknown: 00:13:45

focus on clients that's working in my business working in it,

Unknown: 00:13:50

right. So Monday on CEO day is again, where I'm going to take a

Unknown: 00:13:56

look at the landscape. And I'm honestly looking, especially the

Unknown: 00:13:59

beginning of the month, like right now I'm looking at the

Unknown: 00:14:01

whole month. Okay, then I'm gonna break it down by week. So

Unknown: 00:14:04

each Monday, I really understand what my time where my time is

Unknown: 00:14:09

going to be spent. Also, I work from home. So I've got to make

Unknown: 00:14:14

sure that I have things in play that are not going to distract

Unknown: 00:14:19

me. True story, true story and I set myself up to make sure

Unknown: 00:14:24

things are intact. Okay, make sure things are intact. I set up

Unknown: 00:14:29

all my reminders for the week. I do that you know in my phone, in

Unknown: 00:14:34

my calendar wherever it is it's just it's like a double check

Unknown: 00:14:37

and making sure everything because if it doesn't exist in

Unknown: 00:14:40

the calendar, honestly, it doesn't exist for me all right.

Unknown: 00:14:44

And that's also where I'm now going to look at finances you

Unknown: 00:14:47

know not everybody loves the look at some people do they're

Unknown: 00:14:50

like, let give me all the finances let me look. But it's

Unknown: 00:14:52

really looking and seeing where are we on track. Where are we on

Unknown: 00:14:56

track. So I do this quarterly. I do this monthly. And I take a

Unknown: 00:14:59

look at high level look weekly, where are we at? And I work with

Unknown: 00:15:04

my bookkeeper on that, too. Okay, so and then also what was

Unknown: 00:15:08

the other thing I was gonna say their CEO day CEO day. You see,

Unknown: 00:15:14

it's a Friday today, because that's content creation day for

Unknown: 00:15:16

me. So I am so far away from my CEO day that was that was

Unknown: 00:15:20

earlier in the week, but we're going to head into it there.

Unknown: 00:15:23

Here's what I want you to take away basics, what on your CEO

Unknown: 00:15:26

day is required for you through the week, with your time, okay,

Unknown: 00:15:32

so think of it that way. And that's setting yourself up for

Unknown: 00:15:35

success so that when you wake up on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,

Unknown: 00:15:38

Friday, you're ready to go, you are ready to go. Okay. So we

Unknown: 00:15:43

have to be intentional with our time, I don't know about you,

Unknown: 00:15:46

but I can be someone who can like us every second of every

Unknown: 00:15:51

day, and push through. Okay, and really push through. So being

Unknown: 00:15:56

intentional with your time is going to require you to bill in,

Unknown: 00:16:00

we like your breaks, are you taking them if you're not, I'm

Unknown: 00:16:03

going to really suggest that you do really suggest that you do

Unknown: 00:16:06

because energy is everything. And if we're not taking breaks,

Unknown: 00:16:12

think about that. Think about that. It's exhausting. And it's

Unknown: 00:16:15

a quick, surefire way to move to burnout, okay, and intentional

Unknown: 00:16:20

with our time means being realistic with our time, true

Unknown: 00:16:25

story being realistic with our time. Because and this takes

Unknown: 00:16:30

practice, I used to not at all be realistic with my time, I

Unknown: 00:16:34

thought I could do a lot more with a little bit of time. And

Unknown: 00:16:39

that's not really true. Okay. And so now when I look through

Unknown: 00:16:44

the week, at my time, I'm really focusing in on the priorities of

Unknown: 00:16:48

the week, and then breaking them down by day on the top three

Unknown: 00:16:53

that are going to happen and move them in you guys, this

Unknown: 00:16:57

practice alone has absolutely been a game changer. It's been a

Unknown: 00:17:02

game changer. So you know, it can be so easy sometimes to

Unknown: 00:17:06

just, you know haphazardly accidentally step into your

Unknown: 00:17:11

week. But when you're being intentional about your time,

Unknown: 00:17:15

you're going to have less fatigue by Friday, I always know

Unknown: 00:17:19

that if I am not being intentional with my time, I know

Unknown: 00:17:23

it because on Friday, I am like, Whoa, I am exhausted 100%. And

Unknown: 00:17:29

actually, that'll start to creep in on Thursday, by Thursday with

Unknown: 00:17:33

my accountability partner. She knows if I'm like, I'm really

Unknown: 00:17:36

tired. We're gonna look at my intentional time, we're gonna

Unknown: 00:17:41

look at it. Okay. So that's what I want to say is think about

Unknown: 00:17:44

this, your time, time is valuable, okay, it's a resource.

Unknown: 00:17:50

And we want to be intentional about our resources. Okay, so

Unknown: 00:17:54

speaking of resources, our money is also a resource. And we want

Unknown: 00:17:58

to be really intentional about that to our finances, in the

Unknown: 00:18:02

business. You know, in some businesses, it you know, some

Unknown: 00:18:07

people I remember, my husband used to say this to me, he's

Unknown: 00:18:09

like, I don't think money drives you. And I'm like, I don't know

Unknown: 00:18:13

that it does, either. I love working with people. And I love

Unknown: 00:18:18

being in service. And one of the things as a business owner in a

Unknown: 00:18:22

service based business I got to get over is that you get to be

Unknown: 00:18:28

paid because time is money, money is time. And it is it is

Unknown: 00:18:33

your value, right? Whatever that is. And so I remember that

Unknown: 00:18:38

really hit me when he said that to me. And I was like, Okay,

Unknown: 00:18:41

we've got to flip that and turn it around, and really get

Unknown: 00:18:45

intentional about finances, and generating income, because that

Unknown: 00:18:52

is a pathway to creating more impact in so many ways. By being

Unknown: 00:18:59

intentional with money and finances, I can hire people to

Unknown: 00:19:02

help me that helps grow the business, that means we can

Unknown: 00:19:06

reach more people, right? I can contribute more to different

Unknown: 00:19:13

projects, or charities that I want to contribute to, you know

Unknown: 00:19:17

what I mean? You want to think about that. So I don't know, you

Unknown: 00:19:20

know, for some of you out there if this is hitting home, but you

Unknown: 00:19:24

know, wouldn't it be great if we could do it all for free and

Unknown: 00:19:26

live in this like world for free, but it's just not the way

Unknown: 00:19:29

that it works? Right? So here's the other thing. I truly believe

Unknown: 00:19:33

that as a business owner, really understanding what are my

Unknown: 00:19:36

finances going to look like? What is wanted and needed to

Unknown: 00:19:41

have the business be sustainable. What's wanted and

Unknown: 00:19:43

needed to have the business grow, is really important to

Unknown: 00:19:47

look at. And sustainable is one thing growth is another okay?

Unknown: 00:19:52

You want it to be st sustainable but also you want it to grow.

Unknown: 00:19:56

Okay. And so for any of you that are having conversations about

Unknown: 00:19:59

out money in business. Think of it as impact. Think about it as

Unknown: 00:20:05

impact and the impact that you want to make and be intentional

Unknown: 00:20:08

about it. What you measure grows, you want to look at it,

Unknown: 00:20:12

hey, when we put our head in the sand, and pretend, right,

Unknown: 00:20:17

pretend it's not always the fun part right about business.

Unknown: 00:20:20

Usually, it's our mission and the impact that we're creating.

Unknown: 00:20:23

But you've got to be intentional about your finances, so that you

Unknown: 00:20:29

are able to create the impact that you want. So you've got to

Unknown: 00:20:32

look at it, you've got to get help. I have helped with that.

Unknown: 00:20:34

Now, that was not my favorite part of my business at all. I

Unknown: 00:20:38

just want to I just want to coach and train. Okay. However,

Unknown: 00:20:42

I work with a lot of entrepreneurs, and can you

Unknown: 00:20:44

imagine I'm like, don't worry about the money. No, you

Unknown: 00:20:47

finances money. That's important. It is important. It

Unknown: 00:20:51

helps businesses be sustainable and grow and create impact

Unknown: 00:20:55

period done. So I outsource that and got help with that. Game

Unknown: 00:21:00

changer, game changer. That's being intentional, that is being

Unknown: 00:21:04

intentional. I really do recommend that for any part of

Unknown: 00:21:09

your business that is not, you know, lighting you up. Now, with

Unknown: 00:21:13

that being said, I still have to look at it, I am responsible in

Unknown: 00:21:17

an ownership for my business. So I still have to look, I still

Unknown: 00:21:21

have to set goals, I've still got to be really clear about

Unknown: 00:21:24

where we are, if there's anything missing, and what we

Unknown: 00:21:27

need to move forward. Okay, so be intentional about your

Unknown: 00:21:31

finances all and time and money are resources, time and money or

Unknown: 00:21:36

resources. But here's the thing, they are two things that we can

Unknown: 00:21:41

get really wrapped up in and can really stress us out, and then

Unknown: 00:21:44

come in and sort of muddy the water. Okay, they are two things

Unknown: 00:21:48

that are absolutely a part of our well being. Okay, our well

Unknown: 00:21:53

being and that's why I wanted to start with time and money, and

Unknown: 00:21:56

really talk with you about being intentional. Now, if you're

Unknown: 00:21:59

wondering what being intentional means, please go back to the

Unknown: 00:22:03

beginning of May and listen to the first three episodes, where

Unknown: 00:22:07

we talk about what is intention, getting clear on your intention

Unknown: 00:22:10

and intention and your results, because that's going to give you

Unknown: 00:22:13

all the information you need on being intentional. Okay, so I'm

Unknown: 00:22:17

not going to repeat this here. I wanted to give you a couple of

Unknown: 00:22:20

examples. And I wanted to really drive home that these are direct

Unknown: 00:22:23

things that contribute to your well being as a business owner,

Unknown: 00:22:28

let's talk about well being well being is super important. How am

Unknown: 00:22:33

I being? Is it well? How am I How am I? Am I Well, right? And

Unknown: 00:22:38

that is mind, body, soul. Mind is mental, emotional body is

Unknown: 00:22:45

physical soul, that's your spirit. That is your spirit.

Unknown: 00:22:49

Okay? And when we look at that, and we look at that as our well

Unknown: 00:22:53

being, and we're taking the lead in our lives, and our businesses

Unknown: 00:22:58

with intention, how we doing? How are we right? How are we?

Unknown: 00:23:04

You heard me say if come Thursday afternoon and Friday, I

Unknown: 00:23:08

am at a level of exhaustion, that I don't want to create

Unknown: 00:23:11

content. I know that's a red flag for me, because Fridays are

Unknown: 00:23:16

content creation days. For me, that's a red flag and I've got

Unknown: 00:23:19

to have energy, I've got to you know, I've got to have energy to

Unknown: 00:23:23

be able to pour in to that because I do create a lot of

Unknown: 00:23:26

content. And I've got to have that energy. So I mean, it's

Unknown: 00:23:29

it's results don't lie. If I'm tired. Where was I being in my

Unknown: 00:23:34

well being? Probably not great. Probably not intentional, okay.

Unknown: 00:23:39

So, your well being means what do I require to be the best

Unknown: 00:23:44

version of me as a business owner? So write that down? What

Unknown: 00:23:48

is required for me to be the best version of me as a business

Unknown: 00:23:54

owner? Okay. And look at it from a mind body and soul,

Unknown: 00:24:00

perspective, mental, emotional, physical spirit, okay? Really

Unknown: 00:24:07

look at that, from that perspective and be really

Unknown: 00:24:10

intentional and honest with yourself about those answers.

Unknown: 00:24:15

Okay. Nobody asked you to be a hero. Nobody said push through.

Unknown: 00:24:21

Okay. Nobody said that. But somewhere we make that up.

Unknown: 00:24:25

Believe me. I know. I've been an entrepreneur for 20 years. I

Unknown: 00:24:28

understand. Okay. So you want to really look at that? And answer

Unknown: 00:24:33

that question, honestly. And then being intentional means

Unknown: 00:24:37

being action toward that be an action toward that. Y'all know I

Unknown: 00:24:41

had knee replacement surgery back in February, and I am so

Unknown: 00:24:46

happy to tell you that my left knee works really great. And I

Unknown: 00:24:50

have to say that is because I knew I still got to run a

Unknown: 00:24:54

business. I was very intentional about what was going to occur in

Unknown: 00:24:58

this time period. good am I physical therapy for my left

Unknown: 00:25:01

knee and ended at the end of May. So just like a week ago,

Unknown: 00:25:05

and I had to be really intentional about my time, my

Unknown: 00:25:09

finances and my well being in order to support my intention

Unknown: 00:25:14

this year to be vibrant. You know, that's about health, I've

Unknown: 00:25:19

said it before and in integrity with myself. So that meant, I

Unknown: 00:25:23

had to ask myself some really great questions to help me be

Unknown: 00:25:28

intentional in my well being, and schedule in not just

Unknown: 00:25:32

physical therapy, where I had to go to the physical therapists

Unknown: 00:25:35

office, but also like at home, so that I could have the best

Unknown: 00:25:39

success possible. I'm here to tell you, we hit the goals like

Unknown: 00:25:43

the the, I'm not gonna get these medical terms, right. But like

Unknown: 00:25:46

the bend, you know, the bend 125 degrees, that's the our goal, we

Unknown: 00:25:51

hit it, full extension, that means I can straighten out my

Unknown: 00:25:55

leg, and also working with balance and strength and not

Unknown: 00:26:00

having the knee be stiff all the time. Like, I have to tell you,

Unknown: 00:26:04

I thought it was gonna take a year before I wasn't really

Unknown: 00:26:06

thinking about any more, there are some days where I'm like,

Unknown: 00:26:09

Oh my gosh, what? My knee, right? Because I'm being

Unknown: 00:26:12

intentional about my well being. And it's really important as a

Unknown: 00:26:16

business owner, because one of the things I noticed is that

Unknown: 00:26:19

after surgery, I would get tired, it still happens I get

Unknown: 00:26:23

tired, a lot more easy. And that's because it takes a while

Unknown: 00:26:26

for the body to heal, right. And that's also mental, emotional

Unknown: 00:26:30

and physical. I've gotta say all of it. And so, you know, I can

Unknown: 00:26:34

live by that circumstance, or I can live by my intention, right.

Unknown: 00:26:38

And I wasn't taking three months off of my business as an

Unknown: 00:26:42

entrepreneur. So it was so important to be intentional

Unknown: 00:26:46

about my well being okay. And I'm just talking about the knee.

Unknown: 00:26:50

There's so many other things. I get up really early, but I don't

Unknown: 00:26:54

hit the ground running with work. I literally have a couple

Unknown: 00:26:58

hours of my morning, where I am quiet I am I these are the

Unknown: 00:27:02

things that are required quiet inspiration and movement. Those

Unknown: 00:27:05

are the things that are required to set myself up for success in

Unknown: 00:27:09

the day. Okay, and it looks different all the time. But it's

Unknown: 00:27:13

essential, and we don't miss it. Also wrapping up the day, get

Unknown: 00:27:17

ready for this at 5pm. No other conversation. No at some of you

Unknown: 00:27:22

might be like what I used to work until 738. Now there are

Unknown: 00:27:26

caveats. If I'm doing a workshop, you know, that's in

Unknown: 00:27:29

the evening, my day is going to end a little bit later. But

Unknown: 00:27:32

guess what, on those days, it's going to start a little bit

Unknown: 00:27:35

later. Because I've got to have the energy, right. So you are in

Unknown: 00:27:40

charge is what I want to say of your wellbeing, you've got to

Unknown: 00:27:43

ask yourself those questions and be really honest, that I was

Unknown: 00:27:47

talking about earlier, what's required to be the best version

Unknown: 00:27:51

of me as a business owner, what's required. And in the

Unknown: 00:27:56

areas of well being mental, emotional, physical, and soul

Unknown: 00:28:00

slash spirit, what is required, okay, what is required, and it's

Unknown: 00:28:05

gonna be different for everyone, you've got to find out what's

Unknown: 00:28:08

true for you. And then here's the key, you've got to be

Unknown: 00:28:13

consistent. You've got to be in your integrity with it. Because

Unknown: 00:28:17

nobody's watching you as a business owner, right? I mean,

Unknown: 00:28:21

nobody's like, you own your own business. You're the CEO. No

Unknown: 00:28:24

one's like, Hey, how you doing, you've got to be in integrity

Unknown: 00:28:28

with that, really, and truly, you've got to be in integrity

Unknown: 00:28:32

with that. Nobody's watching, do it anyway, you will be so happy

Unknown: 00:28:36

because with these three things, your well being your finances in

Unknown: 00:28:41

your time, you are going to be in the best place possible to

Unknown: 00:28:46

create the greatest impact possible and have the success

Unknown: 00:28:49

that you decide true story. So again, be intentional with your

Unknown: 00:28:56

time, be intentional with your finances and be intentional with

Unknown: 00:29:00

your well being because you deserve it. The people that you

Unknown: 00:29:04

serve deserve it. And I mean, I get it. When we own our own

Unknown: 00:29:10

business. It's like, oh, 24/7 We can't get away with it. Get away

Unknown: 00:29:15

from it. Yes, you can. Yes, you can. I remember there was a time

Unknown: 00:29:18

I was like, you know, when I was in banking, I could actually

Unknown: 00:29:20

leave, you know, leave and then like drive home and not be in

Unknown: 00:29:25

banking anymore. Right until the next day. But as a business

Unknown: 00:29:29

owner, oh my gosh, it's like happening all the time. No, it's

Unknown: 00:29:31

not. No, it's not. I literally like we went back to New York

Unknown: 00:29:36

for my son's graduation. And everything was in place that I

Unknown: 00:29:41

could step away from the business and be present with my

Unknown: 00:29:44

family and celebrate and have that time to be present with

Unknown: 00:29:50

them. Right. There was a time where I would be like, let me

Unknown: 00:29:54

bring this let me bring my computer and do you know all the

Unknown: 00:29:57

things No, no, no, no. Right? And so it was magical. And we

Unknown: 00:30:03

get to create that we're in charge, but you've got it, you

Unknown: 00:30:07

know, you've got to decide you got to make that decision. And

Unknown: 00:30:10

then you got to declare, to do something about it, and then do

Unknown: 00:30:13

it. And then do it and be in your integrity. Because

Unknown: 00:30:15

remember, we have a choice to lead our lives or follow our

Unknown: 00:30:19

circumstances. And truly, it is about knowing your passion, your

Unknown: 00:30:25

purpose, your values, and really being intentional about that, so

Unknown: 00:30:29

that you can create the impact in your life and the life of

Unknown: 00:30:33

others that you truly desire. And when you take the lead in

Unknown: 00:30:37

your life, you are authentic and vulnerable and courageous. And

Unknown: 00:30:41

being intentional. And being intentional as a business owner.

Unknown: 00:30:45

You know, a lot of people start their own businesses because

Unknown: 00:30:47

they want that freedom with their time with their finances

Unknown: 00:30:51

and their well being. And sometimes we just go boom, right

Unknown: 00:30:55

into it's a trap. No, it's not be intentional with it and watch

Unknown: 00:30:59

you thrive. It's not always gonna look the way we think it's

Unknown: 00:31:03

supposed to. I know I say this all the time. But trust that

Unknown: 00:31:06

more gets revealed as we move forward. So you've got to pause

Unknown: 00:31:09

and let go of worry and doubt and really look, really look and

Unknown: 00:31:13

be honest with yourself, what's working, what's not working so

Unknown: 00:31:16

that you live fully? The best version of you, y'all. Thanks
