E19: Kenny Falconer Interview
Kenny Falconer is a life coach who helps his clients improve their EQ, or a.k.a. emotional quotient/intelligence, to achieve more.
In this episode of the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Kenny talks us through his successful career change from being in construction to business coaching.
Kenny has tried many different jobs in the construction. Though he enjoyed the industry, he decided that he wanted to help more people by becoming a true-life beacon. He studied, became an NLP Coach & Practitioner, and a Time Line Therapy Practitioner. He has had many clients who have achieved exactly the results they were looking for. Tune in to find out more.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Construction was always in his blood. Kenny’s father owned a construction yard, where he would spend most of his holidays when he was a kid. He had experienced working as a joiner, a foreman, and a manager. It was in construction that he honed his skill set.
- Teamwork, responsibility, and trust are just some values he learned while working there. He remembers the time he was working as a Director; working with people came naturally to him because he leads with compassion. He advises for leaders to always be understanding.
- Like many entrepreneurial minds, he also explored property investment. Ken bought over ten houses. Everything went well, until the recession hit. He had to file for bankruptcy and had to sell some properties. This greatly affected Kenny personally.
- Kenny also advises to create boundaries. Don’t treat your clients (e.g. tenants) like your blood relatives. Learn to draw the fine line. If it’s business, be strict in following your own rules. As this will become a problem in the future, especially in your finances.
- Spend time with your family. Kenny is used to working long hours. So, he missed many family dinners, kids’ birthdays, etc. He’d make it up by buying them gifts. But he learned that this was not what they wanted. It’s just time, quality time, you need to give as a father.
- As a coach, he wants to help people get the clarity they need so they can traverse life smoothly and achieve optimum results. Sometimes, people just need some outside perspective on their situation. Ask for help. Be open-minded and learn new things from others.
BEST MOMENTS
- “I love my work. There is never a day that I wake up and think, why do I have to go to work.”
- “Acknowledge responsibility. Be responsible about the quality of work that you’re going to give.”
- “Keep your emotions and love with your family, friends, and the circle of people around you. But when it comes to business, keep it separate.”
- “There’s a lot of people out there who do the same thing. If you’re happy enough in that hamster wheel, stay there. But I will suspect that you’re not. Come out the hamster wheel of life, take a rest, and do something you’ve never done before.”
