No Guilt. No Fear. No Peer

🇺🇸 This time last week I was sitting in a penthouse meeting room, overlooking Las Vegas, learning from the best in the business - The Rock Star of Consulting, Alan Weiss.

Even though it’s only a week later, I have to see this has been the best investment of time and energy I’ve made in my career (big call - yes. Accurate? Yes).

While nothing has changed externally, I feel a huge internal shift in my frequency, channelling Alan’s awesome line, “No Guilt. No Fear. No Peer”.

I don’t think I was “languishing” but after spending 2 years working with clients out of my spare bedroom on Zoom (which I’m absolutely grateful for), I just needed to create some chaos in my life and disrupt myself. I couldn’t spend another week doing ordinary.

And the most spectacular way to do that? Booking a flight to one of the craziest cities in the world, to hang out with a brilliant mentor and meet amazing consulting clients from the USA and Canada.

One of the book chapters I’m writing is titled “Boldness is Contagious. What bold moves are you making today?”

I realised it was a little hypocritical to preach boldness, without living it myself.

And, on my research (n = 1), boldness IS contagious. I suddenly feel more alive than ever. It’s the perfect time to disrupt, given I’m close to nearly 1000 days in business.

➡️ So, I think it’s acceptable for me to now ask YOU that question: What bold moves are you making today?

p.s. I’m trying to bring Alan to Australia - if you’d like to attend a life-changing event with him, send me a message, I’m assembling a crew!
