Summary

I used to think being “attached” meant being committed. But what I’ve learned through business, faith, and some pretty brutal pivots is that attachment is often the very thing slowing us down. In this episode, Chris and I break down why detachment (or as I used to call it, “unattachment”) is one of the most powerful skills you can build as a high performer. We talk about 4 four places of detachment and the lessons I learned from releasing the need to be seen. The fastest growth comes when you release control over how things unfold, who gets the credit, what it looks like to others, and when it all happens.

0:00.0	The only people who thrived in network marketing on our team were the people who detached from getting all the credit and who stopped wasting their energy on trying to fight over one person and getting one person on their team because they thought they were going to be the ringer.
0:16.1	Here is the punchline. There is no ringer in your business ever. If you are stuck on one thing,
0:22.8	it means that that is just going to suck all the energy and life out of you. If you're trying
0:26.9	to like make sure you get that person or get that thing or get that credit. And so when you can
0:31.5	detach from that, that's when everyone and everything else opens up.
0:44.8	And we're back with another episode of He Said She Said.
0:49.1	And we're about to crush this episode. But first, you've got to know that our elite entrepreneur mastermind is getting really close to being sold out. Thanks to some of the
0:52.9	awesome people who have joined recently.

1:08.6	In other words, our sleeves rolled up in your business that we've ever done in the
1:11.9	nine years as well. I'm really excited because also we've added a massive perk, you guys,
1:17.4	because we want to really watch your business grow and thrive and win this year. And so we wanted
1:25.4	to add a couple extra things in order to do that.
1:31.8	What Chris said is really going to be huge for that extra hands-on component where him and I are actually going to be able to sit with you a lot longer the way that we're creating this container.
1:36.3	But also I have added that I will do a podcast episode, a full podcast episode on the top 25 entrepreneurial iTunes, Apple,
