Welcome to the first ever solo coaching show on the podcast. This podcast has been going for six years now. And I've always had an interview at the beginning and coaching session at the end,

but starting today, we're mixing it up. We're still going to have our Monday interviews, but we're

adding this second show every week, which is just you and me. So where I used to give you a coaching

segment and recommendations at the end of a long Monday episode, now we get our own show.

Some days, I'm going to have something for you that's five minutes long. Some days I'm going to have something that's even longer. Today is one of

those little bit longer days, but I'm not going to have it at an arbitrary time. Some days,

it'll be five minutes. Some days seven. It just depends on what I want to share with you.

So I'm not putting rules on it. I want it to be organic. I want it to be fun. So every week,

it'll be you and me. I'll be teaching you. I'll be coaching you just like I do with my clients and my

team. I'll be giving you recommendations about products I love and things I'm not loving right now.

Whether you have a little bit, whether you're a natural pessimist, whether you have lots of optimism,

this is something we want to boost. So let's get into it. I believe that only those who believe they

can make a difference can truly make a

difference, right? This applies to big dreams. It applies to daily achievements. Optimism is a powerful

force. One of the most important things I do with my family, as well as my team when I'm running

my companies, is to make sure that I'm always coming from a place of optimism. Because if I don't believe

what I'm saying and if I don't provide a hopeful vision for people, how can I expect other people

to get behind me? You know what I mean? To trust me to go, okay, she knows what she's doing. Let's go in

that direction, whether it's my kids or my team. It's up to me as the mom
