I talk to guests who have created a RICH life for themselves, not because they’re bathing in money, (although they may be doing that too) but because they’ve defined and created success on their own terms, through successful habits.

Monday through Friday you'll hear from top business and money minds sharing their valuable insights and we dive deep into their own personal success habits. 

This is the place where you come to master the person most responsible for your success...you.

The 2 Things That Allow Me To Say YES To Travel

If you're feeling sales-y, or gross, or pushy or like you are selling someone into something that isn't really right for them...that IS when selling IS gross.  And that's why I won't do that. I believe in always doing the right thing for your customer, even if it requires uncomfortable decisions, or taking a financial hit on my end.   It's also why I've decided to not sell the Whistler retreat to you anymore.  I want to sell the RIGHT things, to the RIGHT people...  THAT m'friends is when you're in true integrity. You know your people are going to get results, because you're moving them into the RIGHT offer for where they are at.  So, when I found myself in some recent sales conversations realizing that the entrepreneurs I was talking to were NOT in fact retreat ready, I didn't sell it...I didn't sell the one thing I'm "supposed" to be selling right now...  Doesn't make much business sense at face value, but here in this episode, I explain why it does...   >> Watch/listen right here to learn more about my decision...    I will NEVER sell you the wrong offer for you. I would rather make LESS money than sell in a way that doesn't feel right to me. In fact, I would rather LOSE money {and I very well might lose about $5K on this retreat, because I will be selling to fewer people}, than sell you something that isn't a good fit.   I'd rather lose my money, than have YOU invest in something that is the wrong fit for you based on where you're at. That is my promise to you. #pinkyswear4life. <img src= "https://mail.google.com/mail/e/1f639" alt="

Why I Won't Sell This To You...

WHAT GETS BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR GREATNESS After decades of coaching powerful executives around the world, Lolly Daskal has observed that leaders rise to their positions relying on a specific set of values and traits. But in time, every executive reaches a point when their performance suffers and failure persists. Very few understand why or how to prevent it. For the first time, Lolly Daskal presents a remarkably powerful system she uses to help top executives harness the virtues of their leadership style. She illustrates how leaders embody seven archetypes and how each archetype has powerful abilities and hidden impediments. One of America's most in demand executive coaches reveals how YOU are unknowingly sabotaging your own success inside, The Leadership Gap. Find our what YOUR leadership gap is and what you can unleash within yourself when you understand how to not only leverage your strengths, but your gaps as well.  Pre-order The Leadership Gap here: https://www.theleadershipgapbook.com/
