| 0:00.0 | In this episode, we sit down with Devon Brooks, the founder of Blow Blow Dry Bar and Sphere, to talk about her journey and experience with coaching and why she thinks coaching is fundamentally broken. |
| 0:16.6 | Get excited because this is tiny leaves. |
| 0:21.3 | Big jinx. Big change. This is one of those conversations that was just incredible fun from start to finish. |
| 0:39.7 | It gave me the opportunity to learn about the coaching world in a little bit more detail from someone |
| 0:45.4 | who has been on all sides of it. |
| 0:48.0 | Devon Brooks grew up raised by coaches. |
| 0:51.5 | Her mom was a coach and she helped sort of solidify her views on the |
| 0:56.3 | world and then as she grew older as she started her own business with her mom she |
| 1:01.7 | hired coaches to help her as she was navigating each of the different |
| 1:06.3 | shifts that she had in her own life. Then she became a coach and finally now she's building a platform to make coaching more accessible for the people who need it most. |
| 1:18.0 | And that's really exciting to me. She is doing the work to take this thing, this thing we know has value, and not only make it more accessible from a cost perspective, but also make it more accessible and reliable from an outcome perspective. |
| 1:35.0 | So in this first conversation, this is first of a series of three episodes with Devon, |
| 1:41.0 | in this first conversation we talk about her background. We talk about |
| 1:44.6 | founding Blow Blow Dry Bars, the first and fastest growing blow dry bar chain in the |
| 1:51.1 | country. We talk about that process. We talk about her journey into coaching and we talk about what she thinks we need to be keeping in mind as we take our personal development journey. So this is a great conversation one I'm |
| 2:04.5 | super super excited to jump into. Now before we start I put together something that |
| 2:10.9 | I think is going to help you beat procrastination. So here's how it works. |
| 2:15.9 | If you have a task you've been procrastinating on, something that is important that you need to get |
| 2:21.4 | started, whether it's for your personal or |
| 2:23.3 | professional life and you've just been putting it off. I put together a bot that's |
| 2:27.4 | going to help you take action in the next 10 minutes. All you have to do is |
| 2:31.8 | text the word start to 910-47-1979. |
