Transcript
- 0:00Welcome to the One Small Change, and I am glad you're back with me this
- 0:04week. And I am happy that we're going to be on a journey of exploration
- 0:07and transformation. I'm your host, Yvonne McCoy, and I bring
- 0:11almost 30 years of entrepreneurial experience and I have a passion for
- 0:15discovering growth through the power of seemingly small change.
- 0:19And this week we're going to have a guest who's going to be talking about
- 0:22how they had a smaller, unexpected or insignificant decision
- 0:26at spark both remarkable transformation and growth. And
- 0:30it could be in their personal life or their professional life.
- 0:34And today we have with us the amazing
- 0:37Jena Taylor. Jena, thank you
- 0:41for coming and spending time with us today. Thanks,
- 0:45Yvonne, for having me. I'm happy to be here. So why
- 0:49don't you tell us what you do and what was the thing that made
- 0:52you decide to do that and be better at it than
- 0:56anybody else? Absolutely.
- 0:59I know this is a titled One Small Change podcast
- 1:04and I am a story of repeated small
- 1:07changes. I had a traumatic brain injury that required
- 1:11me to completely learn how to do everything all over again. I couldn't walk,
- 1:15I couldn't talk. Not so small,
- 1:19right? Yeah. And it, you know, I, I devoted a whole year. I had
- 1:22zero short term memory. I couldn't drive, I couldn't work, I couldn't,
- 1:27I couldn't function. I remember walking into the kitchen and I didn't know
- 1:30why, and so I just stood there and looked at the mountains.
- 1:34So what I did at that point was I adapted a
- 1:38mantra. And my mantra was reclaim my life. I had
- 1:42to reclaim my life. Otherwise,
- 1:47what else did I have to look forward to? What was this new version of
- 1:50me going to be? Was it going to be
- 1:54somewhat similar to what I was prior
- 1:58to the accident, or was it going to just be this
- 2:01version of that current self that wasn't acceptable to
- 2:05me? So I did many small things to
- 2:09get to where I am today, but I couldn't get
- 2:12to where I am today without each one of those
- 2:16small things. And because of
- 2:20the, the effort that I did, cognitive therapy,
- 2:23occupational therapy, physical therapy,
- 2:26I mean, every therapy, vision therapy, I even had to have like
- 2:30tape on my glasses so that my vision
- 2:35wouldn't be impaired by my frames. So little small
- 2:39things like that, and people were like, well, I'll buy you dinner, but you have
- 2:43to wear your tape glasses. I'm like, okay, you know,
- 2:46I couldn't be in a crowd, I couldn't be in a dark. I had to
- 2:49be in a dark room. I had to wear visors, hats,
- 2:52earplugs everything. Because I was so
- 2:56stimulus sensitive and so because of all
- 2:59of these things, I am who I am today. And
- 3:04the theme is resilience. And I would go
- 3:07through multiple traumatic effect events.
- 3:11And one of them was 10 weeks after a major,
- 3:15major operation. And the day I had
- 3:19the surgery, I went under. I lost my service animal. She died in her
- 3:22sleep. And everybody thought, Jena's going to lose her shit. Well,
- 3:26I didn't. I had a goal. I had to do more small
- 3:29things. I had to do my rehab. And I knew I
- 3:33needed another dog in my life. But I couldn't get a puppy because I couldn't
- 3:36walk. I had a walker or crutches. And
- 3:40ten weeks after my surgery, my longtime partner died
- 3:45of a very traumatic death. It was
- 3:49long time addiction combined with alcohol withdrawal,
- 3:54which if you're not familiar with alcohol withdrawal, it's the most withdrawal of any
- 3:57drug. And you can.
- 4:02The first 24 hours is the most dangerous. Then 36
- 4:05and 72. But within the first 24 hours, the
- 4:09hallucinations are pretty good. And he took his own life in a very
- 4:12traumatic fashion. So that's kind of when I fell
- 4:16apart. And then I had to do one small thing,
- 4:20right, to get myself back into my
- 4:24resilient shape. And I adopted
- 4:27Mickey, my black chow chow. And he got me
- 4:31out of bed every day. And that was the one. It was a big thing,
- 4:34but it was one small thing that I added to my life. Some people think
- 4:37that's a major responsibility, but for me it's not. And that,
- 4:41that's how I got back onto my resilient
- 4:45theme. So, you know, I think sometimes that
- 4:49pe people don't realize, first of all, I'm
- 4:52exhausted from everything that you've been through. I, I
- 4:56can't even imagine it. But what, what I hear is it's kind of like
- 5:00putting one foot in front of another, you know, that, you know, a
- 5:03journey starts with that first step.
- 5:07And you know, when I was losing weight,
- 5:11you know, I, I don't know if I told you at one point I weighed
- 5:14440 pounds and I lost almost 200 pounds.
- 5:18So. So for me it was about all the small
- 5:21things that I did continuously every day, you
- 5:25know, that to, you know,
- 5:29change old habits and form new habits. And you
- 5:32didn't always see the results right away, but
- 5:36by the fact that you continued to do it, you started,
- 5:40it became cumulative. And so then you
- 5:44started to see results, you started to see change.
- 5:48Right. So with this
- 5:52amazing background and overcoming as much as you did
- 5:56tell us what you do for your clients. Thanks.
- 5:59So what I do is I take the lessons I learned,
- 6:03the tools that I researched, a lot of them are neuroscience
- 6:07backed and I, I present
- 6:11it with humor and heart.
- 6:15And it's like for
- 6:19me, when I was going through my brain injury and overcoming all of
- 6:22the obstacles and the setbacks, I made it kind
- 6:26of like a game because I like games. And if you gamify something,
- 6:30your participation in it is a little bit more committed. And
- 6:34so I have that. I'm a very playful person by
- 6:37nature and so I have that kind of
- 6:41an aspect to it that I think brings a lot
- 6:44of warmth and encouragement and
- 6:48enables people to adapt because there's a
- 6:52lot of resistance to change. And if there is a
- 6:55warm supporting environment, we all need social
- 6:59support. And if we have even just one person who's our
- 7:02champion, then, then that fosters that environment.
- 7:07And so that's one of the things that really sets me apart from
- 7:10other people. In addition to. I'm a
- 7:14lived experience. I've lived through this and I
- 7:17haven't even, like, there's so many events that I haven't even
- 7:21mentioned that people are like, why are you still
- 7:24smiling? Why are you happy? Why do you have joy in your life?
- 7:29Well, because I, I live resilience and life is
- 7:32meant to be lived joyfully. And so I bring that
- 7:36into my training. And so you. Do you
- 7:40work mainly with entrepreneurs or just anybody who is,
- 7:45is trying to recover from, from a particular situation or just wants a
- 7:49better life? Yeah, yeah, that's a great question. I work with high
- 7:53achieving people, high achieving people because
- 7:57they have a higher burning desire and
- 8:01you need to have that burning desire. If you're, if you think
- 8:04like, let's take my example. When I had my brain injury, I had those two
- 8:08choices. I could be the best version of my
- 8:12new self or I could accept that I was never going to get better.
- 8:16So high achieving people choose that route of wanting
- 8:19to be the best version of themselves. And that's important because that facilitates
- 8:23change. And then also part of my
- 8:27brain injury is I sometimes forget things. Can you repeat the question again? So I
- 8:31was saying, who are the people that you work with and kind of what
- 8:35situations are they in? Oh, thank you. Yep. So the couple
- 8:38different situations. People who want to overcome adversity,
- 8:42maybe they're going through a life transition. You know, the sandwich generation. Right
- 8:46now, people my age are having aging
- 8:50parents move home with them and they're taking care of them. They also have had
- 8:54their adult children move back into the house. Like wait a second, when we
- 8:57grew up we, we were going to be on our own and the kids were
- 9:01on our own and the parents were on their own and three little happy families.
- 9:04Right. That scenario is, is different today. And so there
- 9:08are people and women especially, we
- 9:11sacrifice so much for other people
- 9:15at. And we take care of everything and everyone at the end detriment of
- 9:19ourselves. And so anyone who, who
- 9:22resonates with that is someone that I like to
- 9:26work with and burnout anybody in the corporate
- 9:30world who's a high achiever and is feeling burned out. And
- 9:34the Gallup 2025 State of the
- 9:37Workforce has two lists. $2.9
- 9:41trillion in losses to US corporations alone
- 9:45by disengaged employees. There are a lot of unhappy
- 9:49employees in the corporate world. And so if, if you're one of
- 9:52them, you could really benefit from my resilience training
- 9:56programs. You know, one of the things that you said that, that hit
- 10:00home with me is I remember I could not wait
- 10:03to leave home. That was like my main goal in life.
- 10:07Right. So I feel very weird that all three of my
- 10:11kids at some point moved back in. You
- 10:15know what I'm talk. Well,
- 10:19and there's also grandparents raising grandchildren. Yes,
- 10:23yes. I mean life is very different. I mean I, I would
- 10:26not have survived and had a business if my husband hadn't
- 10:30retired the year that my parents need started to need
- 10:34a lot more assistance, you know because he was
- 10:37the one that really kind of stepped in so I could still, still
- 10:41work my business. And you know, he did a lot of stuff for them.
- 10:46So there is that, that feeling of being torn in so many different
- 10:50directions. I mean, I think that
- 10:54what people don't understand is that
- 10:58you get grind down. You.
- 11:03Let's see how I can say this. Yes, there are situations like
- 11:07yours, like having a brain tumor or having a car accident, you know, that
- 11:11are, that are very specific things. Things. But
- 11:14the thing I think that people don't realize
- 11:18is the detriment that happens from being
- 11:21grind down daily to the point that you are
- 11:25just. Yeah,
- 11:28exhausted, Utterly exhausted. Like no, no gas in the
- 11:32tank, no joy, no fulfillment. And when our
- 11:36soul is empty, that's a very dangerous place to be.
- 11:40And I think, I think people can rebound
- 11:43faster from a specific one time
- 11:47incident because they know that it is one time. I
- 11:51mean it can be huge. But you know that it, you know, you know when
- 11:54it started and you know, you know what you have to do
- 11:57and, and yes, people go about it differently, but the
- 12:00everyday grind, you don't realize when it actually
- 12:04started and it just, it's like, you know, putting the
- 12:08frog in the boiling water, you know, you know, putting it in the water and
- 12:11turning up the heat. It doesn't know, you know, that kind of thing.
- 12:14So I could see where this would be of an incredible
- 12:20help to people, you know, because. But the problem is that a lot of us
- 12:23don't realize it. I mean, how do you, how do you help?
- 12:27You know, and I'm going to, because my audience is mainly entrepreneurs.
- 12:32Can you talk a little bit about the kinds Absolutely.
- 12:36That entrepreneurs face that,
- 12:41you know, rejection, rejection, setbacks.
- 12:45How many times have we, like I'm, I'm a serial entrepreneur myself, so I get
- 12:49it. There's. You're one person typically most of the time
- 12:52and you have to wear so many hats. You're wearing the
- 12:56greatest, the visionary, the technical.
- 13:00Let's not forget your, your own, your, your, you are usually your own IT person.
- 13:04And then you have to build this. If it's
- 13:08a product and minimal viable product or you have to have something
- 13:12out there and if people aren't buying it or if
- 13:16they're not happy with it, or if you don't get contracts, whatever
- 13:20it is that your business is, you, we
- 13:23as business people have to rebound
- 13:27from rejection. And I think that's probably
- 13:31resilience helps people rebound. And one
- 13:34of the, one of the great quotes that Michael, my long term time
- 13:38partner would say is he would smile and dial
- 13:42because we shared office space and he would be making these
- 13:45calls out, just cold calls one
- 13:49after another and, and he, I listened to him in awe because
- 13:52same same thing. He'd say the same thing, leave the same message. But it
- 13:56didn't sound like it was a repeated thing. He was jazzed and I'm like,
- 14:00how do you do that? How do you get 10, you know, how do you
- 14:03get so many no's and just you just done, dial,
- 14:06smile, call, same thing. And he says
- 14:10every no gets me closer to a yes. So that, that's the
- 14:14resilience. We need to remember when we are in business
- 14:18that we are going to have setbacks, we're going to have trials and tribulations and
- 14:22then we're going to have some successes. That it's like golf, you
- 14:25know, if you play golf, you keep coming back when you have
- 14:29that one great shot and that's all it takes in business is that one great
- 14:33moment to keep us being resilient. Well,
- 14:37I think as entrepreneurs probably we are our worst enemies.
- 14:41I mean it's like, oh, I could have done that better? I can't believe I
- 14:44did. I mean, I. You know, a lot of times I'll say to my clients,
- 14:48would you talk to a friend like that? Right? You know? Yeah.
- 14:52I mean, you. Would you go, oh, my God, of course. You know, but, you
- 14:55know, we. And. And, you know, my joke is, how
- 14:59many times did you quit this week because
- 15:02you have something happen? It's like, is this really worth it? It might, you know,
- 15:06then, you know, the. The part of you that goes, oh, no, I
- 15:10need to do this. I have to do this. You know, and you pick yourself
- 15:12back up again. And my quote was, when I was losing,
- 15:17it doesn't matter how many times you fall down. It only matters how many times
- 15:21you get up. And then I added how fast, because you
- 15:25said, well, I'm gonna start again, you know, in a month or a week or
- 15:28whatever. It's going to take you forever. But if you can start, you know, rebound
- 15:32right away, you know, you know, it.
- 15:35It. It's not really. It's a dip. It's not,
- 15:39you know, a ditch, I guess. Right, right. And the other thing to
- 15:43remember is I'm a man mindfulness practitioner. We
- 15:46have to be able to remove that emotional charge from things, right?
- 15:50So you. If you envision it, you know, like a TV screen, right.
- 15:54Your brain is a TV screen. So an idea comes in,
- 15:59it's here. All of a sudden you see it,
- 16:02and then you've got to let it go out. And if we
- 16:06keep processing things in a fashion like that, it
- 16:09removes that emotional charge, which allows us to pick ourselves up a little bit
- 16:13faster. Okay, so that. That's a great
- 16:17tip. So when you see something and you
- 16:21process it, what's the next step?
- 16:25So. So you see it, you process it,
- 16:28feel it, feel it in its ugliness. If you have to cry,
- 16:32if you have to scream, if you have to go, whatever it is,
- 16:36emote. Emotion is what
- 16:41moves it through. Emotion gives it the motion to leave.
- 16:45And then you go, okay, I've emoted done.
- 16:49But it's when we hang on to that, when it's here and
- 16:53we're hanging on to it, that's what, like, grinds us down.
- 16:57Because then we got a chip on our shoulder. We're bitter, we're angry.
- 17:01Well, we can't be productive. We can't be. We can't sell ourselves.
- 17:04We can't sell our business. We can't come across to our. Our client, our clients
- 17:08and customers like everything's great. Like, we're happy if we've got a
- 17:12chip on our shoulder or we're angry, we are
- 17:15going to project that. And this is one of my favorite
- 17:19quotes, Dale Carnegie. People do business. People like to do
- 17:23business with people they like. So we have to be our true
- 17:26self. We have to be in a homeostat, static place
- 17:30in our own life so that we can
- 17:34attract the right clients.
- 17:38I think I'm listening to what you're saying, and I'm, I'm, I'm kind
- 17:42of saying to myself, how many times have I
- 17:46heard something or somebody said something that,
- 17:51you know, years ago my therapist said, you're a grudge collector.
- 17:57Oh, yeah? What's that serving you? Tell you everything that I thought
- 18:01you did wrong back to God knows when, right?
- 18:05Let go of that. Thank God. Let it go, Let it go.
- 18:10The other thing that has helped me is
- 18:14understanding that the way we react to things
- 18:18a lot of times is based on our previous experience.
- 18:22And so we have a default. And,
- 18:26and you know, when, when you don't give it any thought, you go to
- 18:29that default. And typically that default is judgment.
- 18:34You know, it's like something's wrong with somebody, something's wrong with me,
- 18:37something. You know, if you can, if you can stop
- 18:41that and go to a place of curiosity
- 18:46and say, tell me more about that. You know, I mean, I
- 18:49used to say to people, this is not a good business
- 18:53idea. You know, you're not going to make money on this. Right.
- 18:57Which I'm sure was soul crushing, right?
- 19:01And now I've learned, and I, I don't think I've ever
- 19:05said this in a podcast, but there was somebody, I think on Tick Tock or
- 19:08whatever that was selling farts in a jar,
- 19:13thousands of dollars. And I was like, if you can make money at this, you
- 19:17can make money at anything, right? So after that
- 19:20I started saying, all right, tell me more about
- 19:24this. Tell me who you think would need this. And being curious and really
- 19:28digging into what they were trying to accomplish and, you know, how
- 19:31I could help them accomplish that. But I, I'm,
- 19:35I started, I got the detoured, but I think the whole
- 19:39thing was. How many times do we hear something, make a decision
- 19:42about it that
- 19:46we're adding to, like a whole bunch of stuff
- 19:50that's not necessarily healthy for us. Do you
- 19:53know someone? Yeah. It's about prejudice. The problem with prejudice
- 19:57is there probably is one seed of truth in it. You
- 20:01may have met one person that is a certain thing
- 20:05that did a certain thing, and that may be true. And then you
- 20:08take that and generalize it to everybody. That's like that person,
- 20:13whether it's. Oh, yeah, and that's the same thing with a name. Like if you
- 20:17meet somebody and they have, let's say their name's Larry. That's just.
- 20:21No, this says, you know, this is fictitious. Right. My example. But
- 20:26you met a Larry, and Larry was not kind. Larry was
- 20:29bullying. Larry was everything that you just like, oh, right,
- 20:33okay. Then you go and you're in your life and then all of a sudden
- 20:36you get introduced to somebody whose name is Larry. Oh, now you've got
- 20:40everything that you thought about Larry right up here. And you,
- 20:44you're projecting your previous Larry experience with
- 20:48brand new Larry, who's none of those things. But we
- 20:52have this. This, like you say, this
- 20:55prejudice that is so buried in our subconscious, or.
- 20:58Bias, we can call it. And I think what we do is we collect
- 21:02evidence that supports whatever that bias is. So it just
- 21:06gets bigger and bigger. And that's where I think what you were talking about,
- 21:10you know, processing it and then letting it go. It doesn't,
- 21:14it doesn't add to that pile of misinformation.
- 21:18You know, it causes us to make, you know, to see the world
- 21:22incorrectly or not to see it as. As being as good as it
- 21:26possibly could be. This is amazing.
- 21:30I, you know, I, I think we could talk about this for a
- 21:33lot longer. A really thoughtful frame of mind, but
- 21:37let, let's get kind of a little bit practical and stuff. And you
- 21:41already gave us one tip, which was, you know,
- 21:45take things in, observe it, emote, and then
- 21:48get rid of it. Right. If it's not. If it's not useful, I would assume
- 21:52y. Do you have any other tips that as entrepreneurs that we can use?
- 21:59Yes, this is, this is kind of one of my biggest pet peeves.
- 22:03People. People like to be the victim and they like to fall into
- 22:07this victim mentality and they use excuses.
- 22:11Well, I didn't get that project because they
- 22:16weren't ready for me. I didn't get this project because
- 22:20they didn't like me. You know, you think of the
- 22:24different scenarios instead of using
- 22:28that. I'm going to go on that theme of curiosity. When
- 22:32you lose a project and you don't get a client or
- 22:35a project, you don't win it. Stop
- 22:39and be curious. Why Take those
- 22:42filters out, remove that victim mentality, have a
- 22:46clear head and really reflect on,
- 22:50did I do this right? What can I do better? How can I not
- 22:54repeat this? What can I learn from this? That's the best one.
- 22:58What can I learn from this? So that I'm
- 23:01Better. We talked about earlier, the small steps made
- 23:05successively make a huge impact. If we do one thing
- 23:08differently, how does that change?
- 23:12How does that help us? How does that improve our outcome?
- 23:17So I think, you know, when you say that one of the.
- 23:20It was a small change, but it was a huge change.
- 23:25You know, I grew up in a situation where failure was not
- 23:28really an option. What I realized was that that was keeping me from
- 23:32trying things. If I didn't think I could do it,
- 23:35I would. I wouldn't. You know, if I thought I was going to fail, I
- 23:39wouldn't do it. It's funny because it, that came up just recently because
- 23:43I thought I had pretty much fixed it,
- 23:47you know, because what I realized is failure is part of the,
- 23:51part of the formula for success. You actually learn more from your failures than you
- 23:54do from when you succeed. Because when you succeed, you go, okay, great,
- 23:58I'll just do this again. And it. And the same circumstances may not
- 24:02be there. And so you do it again and it doesn't work. And you're like,
- 24:05huh, Right, Right. My daughter said to me, she was, I, I just
- 24:09recently took up Pilates, so for those of you that are getting on the tail
- 24:12end of my podcast, you're going to be hearing about Pilates all the time.
- 24:16But she said, you know, I've noticed every time the instructor
- 24:20asks you to do something, you say no,
- 24:25and then you do it. And that's part of that, that, that whole thing.
- 24:28I, that whole, you know, years and years of if I
- 24:32say no, then I, and then I do something, then I haven't
- 24:36failed because I haven't actually committed to doing it. Do
- 24:40you know what I mean? It, you know. Yeah. So weird to me, she noticed
- 24:43that, that I, that I'm still doing it. So, okay, I took you off. I
- 24:47took you off. So we've got the, we've got the, you know, emote. Let it
- 24:51go. Get rid of the filters and stop being a victim. Learn from what
- 24:55you're doing. And you have a gift too, right? I
- 24:58do. I do. I offer free live training with
- 25:02me once a month. It's typically the last
- 25:06Tuesday of the month with the exception of January, February and March.
- 25:09And then it'll be on Thursday. And it's called Resilience
- 25:13Reset. And it's a high level,
- 25:18meaty one hour session with me to really
- 25:21give you some tips that you can use right away to
- 25:25start building your resilience and, and think about this. Like if you
- 25:29go to the gym and you start lifting weights, you're you want to,
- 25:33you know, transform your muscles. So if you take a resilience training
- 25:37from me, you are flexing and
- 25:41building your resilience muscle that will help you
- 25:44navigate life's turbulence. Because life
- 25:47isn't always smooth. It's very bumpy. And
- 25:51sometimes some people, like me, I've had this
- 25:55just really crazy, turbulent life.
- 25:58But sometimes you look over and your friend is like, live in,
- 26:02like, the dream. And you're like, how is this? You know? But
- 26:06every one of us has turbulence in our lives.
- 26:10And. And if you flex that resilience muscle
- 26:13and build it, you will be able to adapt
- 26:18much better, recover faster, and feel better
- 26:21when you come through on the other side. And I think there's an. Another
- 26:25story. Do I have time for one more quick story? If it's quick.
- 26:29Okay, so there's a. A prophecy or, you
- 26:32know, something that, like the, the buffalo and the cow and
- 26:37in the Indians, the Native American Indians, they
- 26:41would, you know, like, you think about the
- 26:46buffalo. You see the buffalo, they're
- 26:50big, strong, right? And then you got our domesticated cattle.
- 26:55Well, be the buffalo. Why?
- 26:58Because when there's a storm, the buffalo head
- 27:02straight, they duck their heads, and they head straight into that storm.
- 27:07They're going to go through the storm faster. It'll be more
- 27:10intense, but they're going to get through the storm faster.
- 27:14Cattle, on the other hand, they turn tail and
- 27:18they walk and they walk the same
- 27:21direction as the storm. So they have to go through the
- 27:25storm longer at less velocity, but they're
- 27:28in it longer. So I always say, be the buffalo.
- 27:32Oh, that's fantastic. Okay,
- 27:36before we run out of time, when was the last time you did something new
- 27:39for the first time? Yeah, I thought you were going to stump me on that
- 27:42when I read the question. So I have two examples.
- 27:46Two weeks ago, I went to the Modern, the Museum of
- 27:49Instrument, Musical Instrument Museum, Mim here
- 27:53in Phoenix. And that was the first time. And then
- 27:57professionally, I signed up for Riverside
- 28:00fm and I'm using them as my podcast
- 28:04recording. And it's been learning a lot.
- 28:08And I had. I was really stumped by the focus on my camera.
- 28:12So, yes, I spent a lot of time learning this week.
- 28:15Fantastic. All right, time for commercial before we run out of
- 28:19time. So, as always, I'm going to ask you to make sure you share and
- 28:22engage on social media about the podcast. And one of the
- 28:26reasons that I did it was I want to help you to supercharge your business.
- 28:30And I wanted to be able to give back to this community and introduce
- 28:34you to a lot of interesting people that could help you to grow your
- 28:38business. So I hope that you will continue to join us for the one small
- 28:41change where even the tiniest can yield a monumental
- 28:45transformation. And if you haven't done it yet, check the first
- 28:48episode. And also check the.
- 28:51Every quarter I do the cl. The. The quarterly clarity check in
- 28:55which I just did, and see if you can come up with any
- 28:59ideas. Okay, Jena, what's your
- 29:03favorite quote or your. Your last words of wisdom before we end?
- 29:07Oh, I have so many. I'm just going to finish
- 29:11with the same one. It bears repeating. Dale Carnegie.
- 29:15People like to do business. People they like.
- 29:19And can I put a plug in for my podcast? Sure. And the notes
- 29:23will be that. That will be in the notes as well. So what's the name
- 29:26of your podcast? The podcast is Resilience Brilliance, and it
- 29:29will be releasing here in October. Fantastic.
- 29:33Okay, so there'll be a link for that. There'll be a link for Jena's free
- 29:36gift below. And we need to wind up.
- 29:40So, you know, I always say, remember, change
- 29:44can be simple, but it's not always easy. It requires courage,
- 29:47resilience, and a willingness to step out of your comfort zone
- 29:51if you are in your comfort zone. If you stay in your comfort zone,
- 29:55you are not growing. If anything, the world is going
- 29:59forward and you're getting left behind. You are stagnating. So
- 30:02I want to make sure that you continue to join us for the one small
- 30:05change. As we embark on this journey, I want you to have a
- 30:09bold vision and look for innovative possibilities. Until the
- 30:13next time you come, stay curious. And, Jena,
- 30:17thank you so much for being here. Thank you. Thanks for having me. It
- 30:21was great. Bye, everybody. Bye.
