E96 - Golden Nuggets Part 1

The RK3 Show: Season 1 Golden Nuggets Part 1

By Podcast

In Case You Missed It

In Episode 95, we discussed how age is indeed just a number. You don’t have to be young or have to be a certain age to be recognized, to share your story, to do something that has impact. It does not matter what age you reach success; the most important thing is that you decide that you’re going to keep pushing and plowing away no matter what.

No matter what your age, you can make it. You can make change possible. Like the people we listed in the episode, it is never too late!

What does it mean to be vulnerable? Why should I be vulnerable when I share my story? It is all about CONNECTION. You can definitely share data, information, or the products and services that you are building or selling. However, to connect with people on a deeper level, you really need to go to stories – specifically a personal story.

Listen to Episode 94 where I discuss why being vulnerable with your audience helps you better connect and make a difference with people.

We have some PRIZES to give away! Send in your 20-second voice message or an email about The RK3 Show and you might win T-shirts, some merch, sweet SWAG!

Necessity is the mother of invention. Who would have thought 10 months ago that we would be in the current situation we are in right now? A lot of businesses needed to make a shift from being co-located in workplaces to running virtual offices.

What do you do when you think you want to make a shift? What do you do when you feel like its time to move to another phase or season? What if you had a process that helped you make decisions when you were deciding to make a change?

Let me share three things that I do when I’ m processing a shift.

  • [06:18] Step #1: Write down “WHY” then process why you want to make change.
  • [09:42] Step #2: Socialize the change you’re planning to make with people you trust.
  • [12:46] Step #3: Set a date on when you want to make the shift. WRITE IT ON YOUR CALENDAR!
  • [14:37] Let me share the major shift that will happen with The RK3 Show podcast.
  • [16:30] “What’s My Story? How I Got From There to Here” launching in mid-March!
