Plateaus of Purpose

The highs and lows of an entrepreneurial lifestyle are dramatic, but the plateaus can be just as wild. Find your own feng shui as Vanessa Mcneal guides us on a lovely ride through the internal parts that make you move. This episode reshapes our appreciation toward the inevitable plateaus of life.

Mid-way through, you’ll hear a fresh addition to how our coffee breaks will add value throughout Season 2. Ben narrates a writing from Roasted Reflections.

After the break, we dive into the vindication that is keynote speaking! Vanessa and Ben have spoken to so many different types of audiences, so listen to how they share tips on giving an engaging talk, building trust to connect with an audience, slide deck design, collaborating withing different budgets, and appreciating times of slowness that offer a waiting room to prepare you for next. We open with an unplanned appreciation toward love and trusting our powers. We close by contrasting the acceleration that comes with coaching, versus the processing that can come from therapy.
