Join the Modern Leadership Inner Circle: https://www.youtube.com/@modernleadership/join How can I speed up the growth of my business so I can leave my 9-5 like yesterday?? That was a question I asked myself over and over. I wanted to get OUT of the matrix of working massive amounts of overtime, being around the negativity, coming home and sleeping, and then rinsing and repeating. I know that success takes time, but I would really love it if we could get there as soon as possible because my p...

Expectations can be an amazing thing. They can also be used against us though, especially when we don't know they exist. Which is why we wanted to make today's video for you. Before we understood what we will talk about today, we constantly used expectations against us. We actually didn't even know we were doing it. But that's why we want to get ahead of this for you and share how we used expectations in a positive way that allowed us both to leave our full time jobs after nearly 5 X'ing our...

If you're a coach, you've probably come across people who you KNOW would really be helped by having a coach. You might want to coach them, or just have them be open to coaching in general. But you're not sure how to communicate that in a way that doesn't feel like you're attacking them or them taking it as there is something wrong with them. Well today, I want to share the 3 steps I take when I approach this delicate subject, in a way that's more of a subtle art of recommending coaching, that...

We would start to see some initial success, and then bam, before we know it, we'd be back taking old actions, having the same old thoughts, and losing all the momentum we were creating.

Which is why today, we want to share 3 signs that we should have known showed we were afraid of success, and what we did when ...

Should you work your business while on vacation??? If you have the type of business you can "take anywhere" like we do, should you actually take it with you when you're on vacation? One of the great things about our online business is the freedom it gives us to work from anywhere on the planet... But does that mean we should plug in while we're on vacation? Our answer might surprise you, but I also want to give you a framework to use to figure out the right answer for you too. Because there...

Is it time to leave your job? It might be, but before you do (or even think about it), check out this post. I've gotten a lot of questions from people wanting to know how I was able to leave my police career early to lean into entrepreneurship. That makes us an entrepreneur family, since Teresa left her corporate career over 6 years ago too. I'm not saying this is for everyone, but you do need to know 3 specific things FIRST before you decide if this is the right move for you. That is the pu...

I want to share 3 of the best investments I've ever made into my small business that have kept it growing for over 12 years, which led me to an early retirement in my police career. There is going to be one huge theme here too... I see most people trying to invest in OTHER PEOPLES businesses... The stock market... and many other things outside of their own business... You may not agree with me and that's ok, but I don't think that's your best option. I mean, I would personally trust myself, ...

Have you ever felt like you don't have your own life together yourself, why would someone want to get your help in theirs? I have. It made me feel like I'm an imposter, a fake, like someone's going to shine the light on me and expose me for who you really am. But now having coaching thousands of people through this too, I’ve yet to find someone who didn’t feel this way multiple times in their business. Which is why we want to share 3 strategies today that we have used to not only overcome imp...

When you go through a "failure", how do you know if this is a temporary thing, or is it more of a permanent setback? That is the purpose of today's episode... Because the truth is we get these two things confused and a part of that is because of our English language. Did you know in the Spanish language, there are actually two separate words that are used to differentiate between permanent and temporary? Yes, there are two versions of the statements "I am"... One means it's only going to be ...

How do you know if you’re on the right path in your journey to business success?? I'm not sure about you, but not knowing if I'm on the path or not always makes my head voice go crazy...

When work is crazy, your business requires all your every available "free time," and you have a family you're wanting to make a priority, it's easy to get pulled in a million different directions.

What if I told you there's a way that you can win at it all, and not in a way that requires you to sacrifice yo...

With all that we have going on in our personal lives and business, especially while still working a full time job and having kids to take care of, it's easy to convince ourselves we need to take a step back. One step forward, two steps back. What happens if we keep doing that though? We think we need to take a step back, which ultimately gives the outside world to control our success. What if there was another way? An uncommon set of strategies for business success in busy seasons of our li...

Have you ever heard of the 75 HARD? It's a vigorous physical training program designed by Andy Frisella that helps build mental toughness. I've personally done it three times, and every time I have come out stronger on the other side..... IN MY BUSINESS How?

Last week I was watching one of Alex Hormozi's videos inside of a program I had paid for, where he shared one of the most powerful (but also most humiliating) business questions that we all need to ask ourselves daily. Basically, the people who are watching us are constantly asking themselves this question, even if they don't know it. And we need to answer it for them IN ADVANCE, or they will piece out. You're actually doing it right now as you're reading these words... Which is why we need y...
