I took the amazing adventure of investing in a coaching program to help me reach some new professional goals, and I was completely shocked at how much I gained in return of the investment . This program had a huge ROI on my confidence, clarity and belief in myself. 

I created my Aspire for More Senior Living Coach platform based on the experience I had with my own investment. I believe this type of support will change the industry in amazing ways.

My goal is to add value to our industry, the leaders and the residents we serve. But sometimes we stand in the way of ourselves and we need to remember how amazing we are.

Sales is actually Problem solving at its core. If you are nervous about sales it is probably because you are more concerned with the how of things that the 'Why " of things.

In Senior Living we are challenged with changing people's lives. We offer a product that changes the lives of the people we serve. That is amazing! We should never be afraid to show off that transformation.

In this episode I give you tools on how to help create the stories that show off all the best of your community and still focusing on how you can add value to the lives of those who need it most.

I believe connection to your audience is important. Using your stories and other experiences to make your customers/associates feel safe and comfortable is your superpower. Communicating well enough to  all the struggles they are feeling and how you can solve those struggles are important. 

Allowing yourself to be vulnerable in the process is key. When you allow the vulnerability you give your audience/customers/associates the ability to be vulnerable with you. That feeling will be what they remember. They felt seen, heard and validated. Who does not want to feel that way! 

In this podcast, I give you examples of how to do that and how it was successful for me in more ways than one.

In the senior living industry we work in a flood of emotions. But the one consistent emotion we deal with is vulnerability. Our families who come to tour are vulnerable, our residents are vulnerable, our associates can be vulnerable and we as leaders are vulnerable.

What we do with this vulnerability is important, do we stop it or accept it and lead through  it? Do we use empathy correctly, or do we tell people to suck it up?

Vulnerability can be your biggest point of difference in your community from a sales perspective and a management perspective. My goal with this episode is to give you examples of opportunities that we can choose to allow our vulnerability to be a tool for success, teamwork and loyalty .

In the episode I mention a new 12 week program I am launching titled: Identifying Patterns for Success: Traits of a High Performing community. In this program I will be focusing on belief, clarity, connection, confidence, courage, consistency and sales.  I believe these topics are the secret sauce to a great community. The structure will be a group call once a week, a weekly 1:1 call and lots of encouragement and support along the way.

You will never know what a group of like minded people getting together to support each other will do to your soul until you experience it for yourself. I hope you trust me and join me in an experience of support and encouragement that will help you achieve the success you want! This will be a very small program so seats are limited.

It is Activity Professionals week and I honor the people that have changed my life and the life of my Grandmother and the life of everyone they serve.

The power of  fun is strong and alive. We do not give ourselves enough credit about the impact we have on people's lives. I hope this episode gives you an awareness of how important your activity professional is to your community. If you are an Activity professional, I hope you know your value and worth, but if you don't I hope this episode starts a mindset shift for you. 

Fun is a powerful motivator. Go celebrate fun today!

I had the opportunity to have my first guest on my podcast. What a fun conversation about leadership, diversity and real life experiences.

This is a great conversation to listen to get feel motivated to be your best, reflect at things we could have done differently and analyze can we do better with the diverse associates we have on our team currently.

Leadership is not for sissies and this conversation opens up a lot of food for thought.

It is important to understand that we cannot serve others without serving ourselves first. In order to feel successful we have to know what success is for us individually and us professionally.

I walk through an exercise I did to help me get clarity for my purpose in 2023. I hope this helps you be the best you, the best leader and the best community in 2023 and beyond.

In this episode I mentioned a journal that I created to be specifically for leaders inside the community. I am hopeful this tool will help you guide and structure your mind, intention and your confidence to achieve the goals you set. I would love to be able to help you and everyone else find the patterns that are working and the patterns we need to let go!

Get the journal here.
