S14EP02: Leverage
One of the most common things I see in top performers is a desire to do more, to create more and to have more impact. However, what makes the biggest difference for high-achievers is to slow down enough to discover the tiniest steps that make the biggest difference. They feel lazy when they operate from their Zone of Genius but it's often the path to their next level of success. Sarah is hugely accomplished and very successful at almost everything she puts her mind to. In this coaching sess...

S14EP01: Boundaries
Christopher Maher is a former Navy SEAL, a former Olympic athlete and a member of 4PC. We have actually coached one other for over 8 years. And I use his techniques almost every day, to remove stress from my system—physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Today I coach Christopher over how to live a life on his own terms, while still making a big difference in the world and for his clients. Notice how I say very little but guide the conversation enough so that he has his own insight... L...

S13EP08: What are your metrics for success?
When we get in our car, we pay attention to the dials in front of us. Is the check engine light on? How's the tire pressure? Do I need gas? Or we don't pay attention... I got a speeding ticket the other day because I didn't keep my eyes on the speedometer. Today I am coaching an extraordinary woman called Nikki. She's a diversity consultant, a coach and a musician. And she is hitting a ceiling on the level of her success that she perceives as a tension between who she thinks she is and who ...

S13EP07: Your clients are NOT paying you for your time
I have a handful of Thinking Partner clients. They invest $47K for around 5 months. I have 1-2 Concierge Trusted Advisor clients a year who invest $185K to have access to me when they need it. You may be surprised at how little they need that access. And My Thinking Partner clients are often complete way before our 30 minute calls are complete. But here's the thing, my clients are NOT paying for my time. They are paying for their insights. And their insights are priceless. Today you can lis...

S13EP05: Ask Me Anything #1
Today I turn the table on my client. I tell him to ask me one single question—the answer to which will change everything. David lives in Scotland and has a dream to help the homeless population in his city. He is beating himself up for not taking more action. So, I remind him that a goal is a place to come from, not a place to get to. And it turns out that he has done more than he realizes...

S13EP04: Show up as a leader
I know that Philippa is an extraordinary woman because from the moment she joined Transition Excellence, she drew out the leadership of others in making sure everyone had an incredible experience. When I saw her LinkedIn page, I was impressed with her track record as a leader and an educator in the corporate world and as a consultant. So I decided to challenge her, the moment she joined me on the call. Within two minutes she has a powerful insight—and we are done. When you coach people for...

S13EP03: Be Remarkable
Oh this was fun! You see, I start to chat to Ervine before we hit record and she makes a little joke about me mistaking her for a high-performer. I immediately ask if I can start recording because I want to illustrate something important. Marianne Williamson captured it in her poem: "Our deepest fear is not that we are weak. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us." Too often, I see leaders fighting for their limitati...
