KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Between 2017 and 2020, I went through 9 moves, three of which were to different states, 4 job losses, 4 failed attempts to start my business, 2 career changes, severe depression and a divorce. When I finally started my business, Proffit Coach, in October 2019, I was profitable in my first month and that’s because over the last couple of years I’d got to know more skills in my other endeavours, including sales and marketing.
- What happens, at a physiological level when we’re in a state of joy, we’re releasing those hormonal responses in our body – dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin and endorphins – these are designed to optimise our systems. When you’re in those states we’re able to see a more expansive view which helps us solve challenges, be more present, be open to what’s next and new experiences and not stare longingly at the door that’s closed but be in a place of acceptance and learning from that and apply it to the next thing.
- Your guideposts should be your values, your intuition, and surrounding yourself with other people who are looking to stay outstanding, who are working on their mindsets, who are striving for that state of joy and achieving it more often than not. It doesn’t mean that you’re avoiding the negative feelings and the hardships, but are you finding purpose in those things? When there’s purpose you can find joy.
- Knowledge creates judgments over time, when we learn from the people around us there are things put on us over time that can begin to block our intuition. Learning how to access intuition is about feeling back some of the layers of knowledge that you’ve accepted as truth, evaluating your belief systems and finding out who you are instead of who you were told to be. Then intuition will begin taking the driver’s seat
BEST MOMENTS
‘At the heart of Proffit Coach is how to sell, market, run and be in your business in a very soul-aligned way. I do that in a mix of coaching, consulting, training and I integrate a lot of spiritual practices in the work – breathwork, oracle cards, prayer, etc.’
‘I feel like I was out on this Earth to help people pursue their passions and make money doing it. I feel like I attract people that want to make a positive impact on the world.’
‘People want to be around joy instead of fear, stress, complaining, woe is me, victim energy.’
‘Intuition is inside all of us. When we start getting feelings of dissonance, often that’s our intuition trying to get our attention.’
ABOUT THE GUEST
Alison Proffit’s mission is to help mission-driven entrepreneurs feel more soulfulness and joy in their business in terms of both what they are doing and how they are doing it. Approaching business with joy as the leading indicator ultimately leads to more success, better connections, and higher-converting sales conversations. When we are joyful and doing business (and life) in a way that allows them to feel and sound like their most authentic self, they can impact the world and unleash a higher level of abundance in their life and business in a more soul-filling way.

ABOUT THE HOST
Gavin Scott is a born entrepreneur with a passion for start up and scale up. He has over 20 years real estate experience in investment and development.
Gavin says: Over the years I have discovered that mindset is everything. Now, that might sound obvious, but it is! You see the number of awoken minds are very few in reality. Whilst acknowledging mindset is key it is absolutely different from utilising, influencing, impacting and effecting great change, for yourself, your loved ones, friends, colleagues and the wider public.
Why?
Like most of us I have had many ups and downs. I want to share the lessons learnt and promote a better environment for all, internally and externally!
How?
Through sharing my own experiences and hosting some fabulous individuals including some big household names to discuss key topics around mindset and the success formulas I hope the listener will become inspired to create space for change for betterment in their lives. I aim to inspire change by encouragement, not by force. I intend to inspire by education, not by regulation.
