Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:57):
People talk to you, can you talk all day.
So everybody who's tuning in isgoing to listen to you.
So they know you.
You have no idea who they areand they think they know
everything about your life.
They know because you're goingto be, become a friend, you
become a trusted listener or youbecome a trusted person that
can't voice it here and you'redriving to work.
So it became the biggest thingI've ever created.
It was, basically people are sodying to connect.

(01:18):
They want to get to know you.
In a world right now where weare, like I said, dying to
connect, we are doing it througha computer so much as opposed
to face to face.
So that lesson for me wasreally about connecting and
understanding that, on afundamental level, we are all
the same.
We all want to feel valued, weall want to feel heard, we all
want to make a better life forourselves and our family on a

(01:40):
fundamental stage.
And how do we?
It's just how we package itcompletely different, if that
makes sense.
So me, I think getting out theretalking to people if you've got
a business is so instrumental.
Yes, it's great to make a phonecall and yes, it's great to
jump on to TikTok or a podcastand all those sorts of things.
But that face to faceconnection is so powerful

(02:01):
because you can see bodylanguage, you can see
inflections, you can, you canhear tones of voice and I think
for me that's been a biggestthing.
Like you can see some of thesepassion when they're there and
you're talking with them andgetting out of your cup zone.
And I know it's scary, it's.
I had to really practice,especially when I had people
coming up to me all the timeBecause, like I said, they
thought that they knew mebecause they were listening to
me every morning all the way towork and this is the first time
I'm meeting you and my socialanxiety would go through the

(02:23):
roof and I had to reallypractice putting that into place
.
Going to talk to strangers sonow when I go to the grocery
stores, I go to like well, soI'll have a chat to the checkout
person and all of a sudden Iknow that they love machine and
possible in there and theirdaughters do it.
You know what I mean.
Like you start going down thesedifferent avenues of putting
small practices into place everyday.
They're the things that scareyou and yet that would be the

(02:45):
biggest lesson is connect withyour audience, connect with your
customers, connect with them ona human level, because,
ultimately, that's what connectsus is because that we believe
the same, we have the same fears, we have the same love.
We have so many differentelements of us that connect us.
It's about finding the rightone for that person.
Yeah,
