- Building a Values-Based BusinessWe all start our businesses with a certain set of personal values. We want to create time freedom so we can spend more time with our family and loved ones. We want to serve people and make an impact in the world. How do you make sure that you are building a business based on your true values, and what are some ways you can make an impact even as a start up? In this episode, Lesleigh Hodam from the Hodam Agency, shares how she and her husband use their influence as insurance agents and their time, and financial resources in special ways to impact their children’s lives, their community, and inspire others to do the same. Our Challenge for You Today: Identify your top 3 personal values from your own life experiences and passion, and do some brainstorming on how you can live those values through your business. How can you share your values with your audience, and those who you serve? How can you inspire others to do the same? What is the impact you want to make in your family? How are you living your values in your family through your business and the opportunities that you can create for them? What is the impact you want to make in the world? What organization or cause can you support by creating awareness of that organization and how others can get involved?

- Overcoming ProcrastinationProcrastination has big impact on your life, but shows up in small ways, and for most of us, we battle it every day. Today, I’m going to share how I kick procrastination to the curb. Tolerations are tiny annoyances in your life that you've avoided dealing with. Examples: A loose knob that bothers you every day when you open the door. Receipts piling up on your counter, in your car, in your purse. Not setting up auto-pay on a bill. A monthly subscription you need to cancel. Unpacking boxes after a move (4 months ago). A closet full of clothes you don't wear…you get the picture.Each of these little things on their own are not a big deal.But when you have a bunch of them, it causes strain, stress on mindset that weighs you down. So, I’ve adopted a philosophy I call Radical Responsibility. Practicing Radical Responsibility is about showing up for your life in little ways that prove to yourself that you can handle your business. One of the things I reminded myself of often when I started my new business in real estate was, "If it is to be, it is up to me." The hard truth when you start a business is that one is coming along to do this thing for you. Eventually, you can hire people to handle things, but day one - it’s up to you to take action and move things forward. My Challenge for You Today: Kick start a new practice of taking Radical Responsibility in your life by having a “Million Dollar Day.” Here’s how it works:THE MILLION DOLLAR DAYImagine your wealthy aunt offered to pay you a million dollars to complete in a single day what you’ve been procrastinating on for decades...Could you do it? Step 1.) Make a list of everything you’ve been procrastinating on & a note of how long you’ve been procrastinating each one...Step 2.) Pick a day to complete your Million Dollar Day (preferably within the next week)Step 3.)

- Symptoms of Hitting Your “Upper Limit”I’ve been digging deeper over the past few months on this concept of the “Upper Limit” problem that Gay Hendricks describes in his book, The Big Leap. He describes some very specific behaviors that made me feel both seen - and SO called out! See if you relate to any of these behaviors that may actually be “symptoms” of you hitting your upper limit…Most common upper limit behaviors:
- Worrying
- Blame and Criticism
- Getting Sick or Hurt
- Squabbling
- Hiding Significant Feelings
- Not keeping agreements
- Not speaking truths to the relevant people (talking to someone else about it instead)
- Deflecting (Brushing off compliments)
29 min - Value Your Time, Value Yourself
Most business owners spend more than 50% of their time doing low income-producing activities, so they are not earning what they would like to be in their business. In today’s episode, we discuss what to do to value your time - and value yourself - so you start making more money in your business.
What is the cost of doing $25 per hour activity when you’re capable of $1,000 per hour? In a year, if you generated $1,000 per hour for 20 hours per week, you would make over $1 million more than if you keep doing $25 per hour tasks for that same 20 hours. This is a MILLION reasons to prioritize your priorities in your business!
Time blocking is simply deciding in advance when you will make time to move your action items forward to accomplish your goals.
One of my best secrets to avoiding interruptions and getting things done: make appointments with yourself, then honor those appointments. Treat yourself like a highly paid professional and keep your appointments with yourself.
My Challenge for You Today:
If you struggle with finding the time to focus on high-value activities, do this: For two weeks, track where your time is going every 15 minutes.
Then, look back and see where large chunks of your time are going and identify 2-3 things you could delegate or eliminate in order to free up at least an hour per day to work on your goals and have more income-producing activities each week. Over the course of a year, this will create the equivalent of over 6 whole 40-hour work weeks to get it done!

20 min - Creating Space for ProductivityI’ve struggled with organization since I was a kid. I rebelled against rules and systems or having to clean or organize my stuff.

In this episode I share tips and strategies for setting up your physical environment and calendar to support your intentions for getting things done. Let’s talk about systems for:
- Physical office space
- Getting ready
- Morning Richuals
- Notebooks
- Files
- Bags
- To Do List

- Overcoming Imposter Syndrome
If you ever feel like an “imposter” as you’re creating the business of your dreams - you’re not alone. Most entrepreneurs do. You’re doing so many new things! You have goals and plans and are trying to show up with the confidence of a successful person, and introduce yourself as if you have already done the things you want to accomplish. Unless we work on our personal confidence, and level up our identity, we will likely struggle with…6 Symptoms of Low Confidence:
Imposter Syndrome
People Pleasing
Procrastination or Perfectionism
Comparing Yourself to Others
Avoiding Social Interaction
Hyper Sensitivity
In this episode, I share my secrets to “borrow confidence” so you can overcome imposter syndrome and start taking action!My Challenge to You Today: Reach out to someone in a group you belong to and ask if they would be willing to meet with you to get to know each other better. Let them know what you admire or like about them and that you would like to hear about their goals.

28 min - The Formula for Change
Change is inevitable - things are getting better, or they’re getting worse.
The BAD News…
Most people wait for something to blow up in their life before it’s painful enough to make a change. Example: your boss does something awful - so you finally quit that job.
The GOOD News…
I don’t have to wait for things to get REALLY BAD before I make changes in my life or my business.
The Formula for Change says that there is something just as powerful as dissatisfaction with your current situation. It’s CLARITY of VISION and FIRST STEPS.
On today’s episode, we dig into how to get true CLARITY.
