April Garcia's PivotMe

Welcome back! Today, we’re reframing how you think about the time, money, and energy you’ve poured into yourself. You’ve been investing in your skills, your growth, and your mindset—and now it’s time to monetize that investment. In this episode, I’ll show you why your value has gone up and why your compensation needs to reflect the current you, not the old you. Let’s stop selling ourselves short and start commanding what we’re truly worth in the marketplace.

• Your Investment = Increased Value: Understand how your time and financial investments in self-development directly increase the value you bring to the marketplace.

• Stop Using the Old You as a Benchmark: Learn why basing your worth on past rates, skillsets, or confidence is holding you back—and how to break free from outdated benchmarks.

• How to Command Higher Income: Get actionable strategies to assess your current value and ensure your pricing, salary, or rates reflect the new and improved you.

• Why Confidence Matters: Discover how confidence, paired with your growing expertise, can unlock new levels of income and opportunity.

• Why the investment you made last month makes you more valuable today.
• How self-development translates into marketplace value.
• The confidence shift: Why charging what you're worth isn’t just about skills—it’s about believing in yourself.
• Breaking the “old you” cycle: Stop looking backward when setting your rates or salary expectations.
• Actionable steps to monetize your growth and demand your worth.

• "You are worth more today because of the investment you made in yourself yesterday. Your value went up—don’t let anyone tell you otherwise." — April Garcia
• "Stop using the old you as a benchmark. The marketplace isn’t paying for who you were last month; they’re paying for who you are right now." — April Garcia
• "Confidence plus expertise equals income. When you invest in yourself, your confidence grows—and so should your paycheck." — April Garcia

1. Reassess Your Value: Write down the skills, knowledge, and confidence you’ve gained in the last six months. Ask yourself, “Am I being compensated for the person I am today?”

2. Update Your Rates or Salary Expectations: If you’re an entrepreneur, raise your rates to reflect your new value. If you’re an employee, prepare to negotiate a raise or promotion.

3. Communicate Your Value: Practice articulating the value you bring to clients, employers, or partners. Be specific about how your skills and knowledge create results.

4. Invest Continuously: Keep leveling up! Set aside time and money each month for self-development—it pays dividends in both value and income.

Welcome back, friend! Today, we’re taking a walk down memory lane—yes, there’s a nod to Welcome Back, Kotter—but more importantly, we’re diving into a topic that’s been on my heart: creating spaces for real, honest collaboration and connection. I’m pulling back the curtain on Collaborate, the annual event we’ve hosted for the past three years. This isn’t your average conference. It’s not about the sizzle, the glam, or the Instagram-worthy moments. Collaborate is about deep, meaningful conversations, vulnerability, and growth—both personal and professional.

• The Magic of Collaborate: Discover what makes Collaborate a transformative experience. Hint: it’s not about the venue or the photo ops; it’s about the connections and the “magic” of real conversations.

• Why Vulnerability is a Game-Changer: Learn how being open and honest can unlock growth in both life and business. April shares how vulnerability—once a “hard pass” for her—has become a cornerstone of meaningful leadership and collaboration.

• Overcoming Limiting Narratives: Hear powerful stories of attendees who faced their fears—like accents, self-doubt, or past failures—and how the community turned those perceived weaknesses into strengths.

• The Power of Me Too: Understand the profound impact of shared struggles and how hearing “me too” can dissolve shame and inspire action.

• Building a 3-Year Vision: Explore how the event integrates personal growth with actionable strategies to help attendees design a vision for their life and business.

• Introduction to Collaborate: Not about the sizzle, but about creating a space for community and real connection.
• Why “magic” is the only word that fits the experience.
• Vulnerability in safe spaces: How Collaborate fosters honest conversations that break down barriers.
• The power of “me too”: Stories of shared fears and how they became strengths.
• Mike’s call to action: “The world needs this. How do WE bring this out in the world?”

• “This isn’t about the sizzle. The world has enough sizzle. It’s about real connection, real growth, and locking arms with people who care about you.” — April Garcia
• “The power of vulnerability isn’t in showing weakness; it’s in creating connection and understanding.” — April Garcia
• “When you share your struggles, you might just help someone else realize they’re not alone either.” — April Garcia

• For Business Owners: It’s not just about growing revenue but about growing yourself so you can scale sustainably without losing what matters most.

• For Leaders and Teams: Collaborate provides a blueprint for creating spaces where vulnerability is a strength, not a liability.

• For Everyone Feeling Stuck: Whether it’s self-doubt, burnout, or fear of failure, Collaborate helps uncover the narratives holding you back and replaces them with strength and support.

1. Find Your Community: Seek out a space where you can be real, vulnerable, and supported. It doesn’t have to be Collaborate—but make it a priority to find your tribe.
2. Reflect on Your Narratives: What stories are you telling yourself that might be holding you back? Write them down and challenge their truth.
3. Create a Vision: Take 30 minutes to outline your 3-year vision for life and business. What’s your next bold move?
4. Share Your Struggles: Start a real conversation with someone you trust. You might just find the power of “me too.”

In this transformative episode of PivotMe, April dives deep into a powerful concept that separates high achievers from the rest: the pursuit of 10x opportunities. April discusses why aiming for 10x growth—versus incremental 2x improvement—has the potential to revolutionize your life and business. If you’re ready to focus on high-impact actions, make bold decisions, and move forward with purpose, this episode will guide you through the process. Learn to distinguish between 10x and 2x opportunities, practice "planned neglect" of small tasks, and balance your drive with sustainable habits.

• The Power of 10x Growth vs. Incremental 2x Change: Understand why aiming for exponential impact is more transformative than simply improving on what you’re already doing. Learn to shift your mindset to focus on 10x goals that create significant, long-term change.

• Identifying 10x vs. 2x Opportunities: April guides you in creating two lists—10x and 2x opportunities. Discover how to recognize and prioritize the high-stakes tasks that drive true growth, while minimizing smaller, less impactful tasks.

• Practicing ‘Planned Neglect’ for Focused Success: Learn the concept of planned neglect: choosing what to consciously let go of to fully pursue your highest priorities. April shares stories of how saying “no” can create the space needed for substantial gains.

• Why 10x growth requires a mindset shift from “safe” incremental changes to embracing exponential impact.
• Creating two lists to separate high-impact (10x) and low-impact (2x) tasks.
• Practicing planned neglect by deprioritizing 2x tasks for greater focus on what truly matters.
• Using the “wheel of life” tool to maintain balance during the pursuit of 10x goals.
• Monetization strategies for 10x ideas, including content creation and affiliate marketing.

• “When we say ‘yes’ to 10x opportunities, we’re saying ‘no’ to things that won’t get us where we want to go.” — April Garcia
• “If one part of your life is completely out of sync, it’ll eventually impact everything else.” — April Garcia
• “The discipline of saying ‘no’ to smaller tasks opens the door to massive growth.” — April Garcia

April concludes the episode by encouraging listeners to embrace the challenge of choosing high-impact growth over smaller wins. By practicing planned neglect and prioritizing 10x opportunities, you create the space for transformation. Don’t just seek perfection—seek progress. Start today by identifying your own 10x opportunities and taking that first step toward substantial growth.

In this insightful episode of PivotMe, April guides listeners through an exercise to design their Perfect Week—a vision of the life they want to live. Breaking free from current schedules and obligations, April shows you how to dream without limits and tailor a weekly plan filled with activities you want, while eliminating those that don’t align with your ideal life. Listen in to learn how this printable, reviewable exercise can gradually shift your weekly reality closer to your dream life.

• How to Create Your Perfect Week, Untethered from Current Commitments: April walks you through a powerful exercise to imagine your ideal week with no constraints. Explore your desires free from limitations, focusing on what would truly fulfill you.

• Visualizing Your Perfect Week Without Goal-Setting: Discover how to tap into a creative space for dreaming, rather than immediately focusing on goal-setting. This allows you to see possibilities beyond your current schedule.

• Making Iterative Changes for Progress: April explains why achieving your Perfect Week isn’t a quick fix, but a gradual shift, through small adjustments that make a big impact over time.

• Listing What You Want—and Don’t Want—in Your Week: Learn the art of intentional selection by making lists of both desired and unwanted elements in your Perfect Week, giving you a clear sense of what to embrace and what to eliminate.

• Scheduling Your Perfect Week as a Monthly Practice: April recommends putting your Perfect Week into a printable schedule that you can review each month, making space for one small addition that brings you closer to your vision.

• "The transition between the week you live now and your Perfect Week is not a light switch." — April Garcia 
• "If you don’t do the work to define your perfect week, someone will define it for you." — April Garcia 
• "Becoming the best version of yourself is hard work, which is why most people never do it." — April Garcia 

April wraps up this episode with a reminder that your Perfect Week won’t happen overnight, but through consistent, intentional effort. By defining what you want in your week—and removing what you don’t—you can build a schedule that supports your dream life. Give yourself permission to take these steps because designing your ideal life starts with a single, small change.

In today’s episode, April delves into a powerful concept from Jim Collins' book Built to Last—The Genius of the AND, Not the Tyranny of the OR. This mindset encourages us to reject limiting beliefs that force us to choose between two seemingly conflicting options. Instead, we are challenged to find ways to integrate both. Whether it's balancing work and family, professional growth and personal health, or pursuing success without compromising values, this episode is all about finding harmony between priorities.

Key Points:

• The Genius of the AND Explained: April introduces the idea of embracing the AND, allowing both choices to coexist. She refers to Jim Collins' quote: "Builders of greatness reject the tyranny of the OR and embrace the genius of the AND." April explains how this principle applies not only to business but to our personal lives, too.

• Examples of the Tyranny of the OR: April shares examples where people feel trapped in making exclusive decisions:

  • I can scale my business OR be a present parent.
  • I can work out daily OR drop my kids off at school.
  • I can grow professionally OR have free time.

• Personal Story of Breaking the OR Mentality: April recounts her own experience of being stuck in the mindset that she could either scale her business or be a present parent. She describes how she shifted her thinking to embrace the AND, finding ways to do both.

• Client Story – Kyle's Struggle: April shares a story of her client Kyle, a business owner who believed he couldn't scale his business and be a good father at the same time. This belief stemmed from past trauma when working a corporate job, where he constantly felt like he was failing both as an employee and as a parent. By helping Kyle identify the fear behind his resistance to scaling, April was able to show him how it’s possible to grow his business and still be present for his son.

• Asking the Right Questions: April emphasizes the importance of asking yourself: "What would need to be true for me to do both?" This question helps to dismantle the OR mentality and opens up possibilities for integrating both goals.

• Reclaiming Power by Living in the AND: By choosing to live in the AND, we take control of our lives and stop running from our fears. We can design our lives in ways that allow us to have both, whether it’s business success AND family time, health AND career growth, or any other combination that feels impossible.

April wraps up the episode by challenging listeners to identify where they are stuck in the tyranny of the OR and to start asking the hard question: "What would need to be true for me to have BOTH?" Living in the AND isn’t just a business principle—it’s a life principle. By adopting this mindset, we reclaim our power and design lives that are aligned with our biggest dreams and goals.

In today’s episode, April challenges listeners to rethink their approach to life’s most daunting challenges by asking one powerful question: “What would have to be true for this to be simple?” Whether you’re struggling with debt, overwhelmed by work projects, or feeling stuck in your business, this episode teaches you how to break down seemingly insurmountable tasks and find a clearer path forward. Simplicity isn’t always easy, but it's often the key to unlocking your next move.

• Reframing Your Challenges: April discusses how asking “What would have to be true for this to be simple?” can instantly shift your mindset from overwhelmed to empowered.

• Debt Reframe Example: April shares a story about a business owner buried in $400,000 of debt. By focusing on his most profitable service, they turned a massive debt problem into a clear sales goal.

• Stop Overcomplicating Your Life: We often make problems harder than they need to be. April emphasizes that we can simplify challenges by focusing on the core tasks that make the biggest impact. Don't confuse "simple" with "easy."

• Tackling Beliefs that Complicate Solutions: Many of our challenges aren’t hard because they are objectively difficult but because our beliefs complicate them. April discusses how beliefs can keep us stuck in unnecessary complexity, and how adopting new, empowering beliefs can make things simple.

• Practical Examples: April shares actionable stories, like how knowing the right person can simplify a big opportunity or how focusing on one service can pay off large debt.

Life is full of challenges that seem complex, but more often than not, the solutions are simple if we change the way we think about them. April encourages listeners to ask themselves, “What would have to be true for this to be simple?” as a tool to unlock creative solutions, reduce stress, and make meaningful progress in their lives. Simplicity is not always easy, but it is always within reach if you're willing to reframe your approach.

Are you getting sidetracked by easier goals that don’t lead to your long-term vision? It’s not that you lack motivation—it’s that there’s often a clearer path to a lesser goal. In this episode, April dives into how we can stay focused on our big goals and not get distracted by the more convenient, but less impactful, tasks that pop up every day. Learn how to establish your “One Move” that aligns with your 3-year vision and make sure that’s where your effort goes.

• Motivation isn’t the problem: April explains that most people are willing to work and put in the reps—but often towards the wrong goals. The real issue is how we focus our energy on a clearer path to lesser goals.
• The One Move: Instead of chasing smaller, more convenient goals, April discusses how to identify the One Move—the action that will get you closer to your ultimate 3-year vision.
• Ben Hardy’s Insight: April references Ben Hardy’s idea of focusing on future self and making decisions that serve your long-term vision. Lesser goals can feel productive but don’t move you toward your highest potential.
• Client Story (David’s Routine): April shares a story about David, one of her clients, who transformed his productivity by dedicating his mornings to himself—coffee, journaling, and training—before starting his day. This simple routine helped him gain clarity and stay on track with his bigger goals.
• Avoiding the Distraction of Easy Wins: April breaks down how our brains are wired to seek immediate rewards, and why that often leads us down the path of easier, less meaningful goals.

Don’t let a clearer path to a lesser goal derail your 3-year vision. Motivation isn’t the issue; it’s about focusing on the right goals. Identify your One Move and make sure your daily actions align with your future self. Avoid the trap of small, easy wins that pull you off course. Recommit to the big goals, and create habits that support them.

Feeling overwhelmed and busy is a common challenge for many of us, especially when juggling multiple projects and commitments. In this episode of PivotMe, April introduces three powerful decision filters that can help you ruthlessly prioritize your tasks and regain control of your time. It’s not about getting more done faster; it’s about getting the right things done faster. By using these decision filters, you’ll be able to identify which tasks truly need your attention and which can be delegated, delayed, or dropped altogether.

• Overwhelm and Busyness: April discusses how feeling overwhelmed often stems from taking on too many tasks without discerning which ones are truly necessary. It’s crucial to decide which plates to keep spinning and which to set down.
• The 3 Decision Filters: April explains the decision filters to use every day:
  1. Does this need to be done?
  2. Does this need to be done by me?
  3. Is this a 10x or 2x opportunity?
• Academy Client Share: April shares a case study from a client in the PivotMe Academy who transformed his consulting business by applying the decision filters. By delegating time-consuming analytics and editing tasks, he freed up several hours each week and was able to take on an additional client, achieving "more money, in less time."
• Implementing the Filters: April provides practical tips on how to integrate these decision filters into your daily routine and shares common tasks that are easy to delegate or eliminate.
• Wins: The episode closes with a celebration of recent wins from the PivotMe community, reinforcing how using these decision filters has empowered listeners to reclaim their time.

Overwhelm and busyness are often the result of tackling too many unnecessary tasks. By using these three decision filters daily, you can better prioritize your to-do list, delegate when possible, and focus on opportunities that will have the most impact.
