Mindset Meets Mastery

“Age is not an issue if you have the right mindset.” -Gayle Carson

Aging into our 50s and beyond doesn’t have to be depressing, it can (and should) be very productive and fulfilling. It depends on what we focus on and what we decide to do every day.  Sadly, it’s often a period when some people worry too much about wrinkles, grey hair, and arthritis. Some have lost focus of their unique skills and talents, and the value they bring into the world. Today, Arlene Gale and Gayle Carson, the self-professed S.O.B. (“Spunky Old Broad”), talk about why age is just a number and a mindset.. Gayle shares how to make your 50s and beyond purposeful and exciting. She also shares how to adapt to the dynamic nature of business, endure loss, live in alignment, and beat self-doubt. There is no such thing as retirement age, because people who enjoy what they do never retire. Tune in and discover Gayle’s secret to living a regret-free life!

“Use this time to grow together before you go together.” -Crystal Clay

“Do you believe, “If you want something done right, you have to do it yourself?” This  frustration comes when others don’t do it “the right way,” which is basically our way. Unknowingly, we are creating learned helplessness in others because we aren’t willing or able to release control, fear, and perfection. We had an initial look at learned helplessness with a focus on the workplace in Episode 11, but today we’re navigating even deeper, especially to help parents better manage the time and encourage the talents and skills of children. Arlene and Crystal Clay help us determine if we already are in a learned helplessness cycle. And if we have, Crystal teaches how to break free from it because learned helplessness can trickle down to the next generations. Before that becomes the legacy you pass on, tune in and learn how to cut it off to better your life and the lives of those around you! Learned helplessness feeds on a ground where growth is stifled. Protect yourself and your immediate and extended family by growing together toward fuller, happier lives.

“Life is the journey of practicing every day to be better than we were the day before so we can become a business champion.” -Catherine Pena

How do you become an online business champion? First, find out which platform best suits your business and then utilize it the right way. In this episode, Arlene talks to Online Business Champion Catherine Pena on how NOT to waste time on social media. One common misconception entrepreneurs have is that being everywhere on social media increases visibility and propels them to success. This, on the contrary, can be detrimental to business and to the owner. Catherine explains why this may be true. It is vital for entrepreneurs to turn their attention to the “social” aspect of social media. After being social on a media, a business has then earned the right to sell in that space. She also gives advice on how to determine which businesses should be on a specific platform and why having a website is crucially important for every business.
