00:00:51,933
how did we meet and how did we all like come to here
22
00:00:53,100 -->
00:00:57,866
well I think we were both living in Los Angeles in a
23
00:00:57,866 -->
00:01:00,833
well I was there from 2017 to 2020
24
00:01:00,833 -->
00:01:03,100
and we were living in the same building
25
00:01:03,466 -->
00:01:07,100
yeah and I remember having hosted a
26
00:01:07,366 -->
00:01:10,433
like kind of a neighbor get together one evening
27
00:01:10,433 -->
00:01:13,266
and almost everyone had left
28
00:01:13,466 -->
00:01:15,433
and you found out about it
29
00:01:15,433 -->
00:01:18,266
maybe you were coming back from an event
30
00:01:18,400 -->
00:01:22,233
and you showed up kind of at the tail end
31
00:01:22,233 -->
00:01:24,366
but you walked in and I like
32
00:01:24,366 -->
00:01:27,400
you have such a strong presence haha
33
00:01:28,700 -->
00:01:30,366
and I was thinking well
34
00:01:30,366 -->
00:01:34,466
she seems like a cool person to get to know and
35
00:01:34,600 -->
00:01:36,566
and I think we just started talking
36
00:01:36,566 -->
00:01:40,966
it was 2018 maybe and 2018
37
00:01:41,200 -->
00:01:45,900
2019 and 2019 and um
38
00:01:45,900 -->
00:01:49,266
it was just like this organic conversation
39
00:01:49,266 -->
00:01:54,266
and like this instant chemistry and uh yeah
40
00:01:54,266 -->
00:01:54,966
um yeah
41
00:01:54,966 -->
00:01:56,300
do you do you remember that
42
00:01:56,300 -->
00:01:57,433
I do remember
43
00:01:57,433 -->
00:02:01,966
I also remember Eduardo was with you and yes
44
00:02:01,966 -->
00:02:03,766
I stepped in you were almost done
45
00:02:03,766 -->
00:02:06,766
I'm like did I miss the party but I wanna meet you
46
00:02:10,666 -->
00:02:10,966
yeah
47
00:02:10,966 -->
00:02:13,800
we were really kind of getting ready to shut it down
48
00:02:13,800 -->
00:02:16,266
but you were there and we're like well
49
00:02:16,266 -->
00:02:19,700
let's let's keep it open for another 15 minutes
50
00:02:19,700 -->
00:02:21,300
and then we started talking
51
00:02:21,300 -->
00:02:22,500
and then immediately
52
00:02:22,500 -->
00:02:26,166
I found out that you were already a coach
53
00:02:26,833 -->
00:02:28,566
yes yes
54
00:02:28,600 -->
00:02:30,266
that's what I do
55
00:02:30,900 -->
00:02:32,900
yes and then you said ICF
56
00:02:32,900 -->
00:02:34,633
like you meet a lot of coaches
57
00:02:34,633 -->
00:02:38,300
but not that many that go the ICF path
58
00:02:38,300 -->
00:02:40,300
so then when you said ICF
59
00:02:40,300 -->
00:02:42,100
I was like wow
60
00:02:42,100 -->
00:02:44,300
she's like she's really in it
61
00:02:44,300 -->
00:02:46,000
yeah legit
62
00:02:46,000 -->
00:02:49,300
legit and then I remember having that conversation
63
00:02:49,300 -->
00:02:50,800
like I I was hooked
64
00:02:50,866 -->
00:02:53,766
my goodness look at the building that I live in
65
00:02:53,766 -->
00:02:56,600
I actually have like high frequency
66
00:02:56,600 -->
00:02:58,266
high conscious individuals here
67
00:02:58,266 -->
00:03:01,900
I'm so lucky to be meeting these people
68
00:03:01,900 -->
00:03:03,433
and then I was so excited
69
00:03:03,433 -->
00:03:07,033
and then I remember feeling connected right away
70
00:03:07,033 -->
00:03:08,333
with both yes
71
00:03:08,500 -->
00:03:11,300
and then we became such good friends after that
72
00:03:11,633 -->
00:03:13,233
yes yes
73
00:03:13,233 -->
00:03:14,400
it was it was like
74
00:03:14,400 -->
00:03:15,833
I really believe that
75
00:03:15,833 -->
00:03:18,466
we have these moments of time in our lives
76
00:03:18,466 -->
00:03:19,733
when we're just
77
00:03:20,000 -->
00:03:23,166
we're at the right place at the right time
78
00:03:23,166 -->
00:03:24,966
and that was definitely one
79
00:03:24,966 -->
00:03:25,666
of those moments
80
00:03:25,666 -->
00:03:28,033
cause we lived there for two and a half years
81
00:03:28,033 -->
00:03:30,366
you lived there in that building for what
82
00:03:30,366 -->
00:03:32,566
a year and a half two years
83
00:03:32,800 -->
00:03:35,700
and we were just we were meant to meet
84
00:03:35,700 -->
00:03:37,866
it was it was really special
85
00:03:37,866 -->
00:03:38,766
yeah it was
86
00:03:38,766 -->
00:03:40,233
it was really really special
87
00:03:40,233 -->
00:03:44,566
and for those of you who are watching listening
88
00:03:44,566 -->
00:03:47,966
tuning in this is actually a great reminder
89
00:03:48,033 -->
00:03:51,500
where are you at who are you surrounded with
90
00:03:51,500 -->
00:03:55,100
and what are you missing in your environment
91
00:03:55,100 -->
00:03:57,100
are you really connecting to people
92
00:03:57,100 -->
00:03:58,233
are you really paying
93
00:03:58,233 -->
00:04:02,333
attention to the energies around you right yes
94
00:04:02,466 -->
00:04:05,366
yes that's a very good reminder
95
00:04:05,600 -->
00:04:08,600
so then Nathan obviously
96
00:04:09,000 -->
00:04:11,300
let's just properly introduce you to our audience
97
00:04:13,200 -->
00:04:15,266
I have many rolls shiny which
98
00:04:15,266 -->
00:04:17,633
which ones do you want to uh
99
00:04:17,633 -->
00:04:19,300

100
00:04:19,400 -->
00:04:22,000
the whole you the whole Nathan
101
00:04:22,033 -->
00:04:24,166
do you want me to start yeah absolutely
102
00:04:24,366 -->
00:04:26,866
I would love to hear how
103
00:04:26,866 -->
00:04:29,400
you would love to introduce yourself to the world
104
00:04:29,900 -->
00:04:31,633
what kind of hats you
105
00:04:31,633 -->
00:04:36,000
you have and what is your purpose in this lifetime
106
00:04:36,566 -->
00:04:38,166
wow okay
107
00:04:38,166 -->
00:04:40,233
why start with the you know
108
00:04:40,233 -->
00:04:42,400
my purpose I
109
00:04:42,400 -->
00:04:44,700
I kind of shift every year
110
00:04:44,700 -->
00:04:46,700
but I mean it's all aligned
111
00:04:47,000 -->
00:04:50,000
um and I have a really great one this year
112
00:04:50,000 -->
00:04:50,933
which is I'm opening new cycles to elevate
113
00:04:54,600 -->
00:04:56,666
transform and advance
114
00:04:57,366 -->
00:04:59,233
that's like so I can
115
00:04:59,233 -->
00:05:02,266
I think you and I a few times did like
116
00:05:02,266 -->
00:05:04,666
New Year's sort of resolutions together
117
00:05:04,666 -->
00:05:05,700
and planning
118
00:05:06,000 -->
00:05:08,833
so every year I kind of lock into a purpose
119
00:05:08,833 -->
00:05:11,733
so this year it's really around elevating
120
00:05:11,966 -->
00:05:14,166
transforming and advancing
121
00:05:14,466 -->
00:05:18,433
last year I was expanding my capacity to enable
122
00:05:18,433 -->
00:05:23,366
empower and enlighten which is totally connected to
123
00:05:23,366 -->
00:05:27,766
to shininess shiny minds and lightning enlightenment
124
00:05:28,066 -->
00:05:30,266
um so um
125
00:05:30,266 -->
00:05:31,400
so I think you know
126
00:05:31,400 -->
00:05:36,166
my purpose is really to be a channel of
127
00:05:36,166 -->
00:05:39,233
of Grace of love to
128
00:05:39,233 -->
00:05:43,766
to serve others to bring light into the
129
00:05:43,833 -->
00:05:47,100
into the world and I know that's yours also
130
00:05:47,100 -->
00:05:49,300
and I think that's why when we met
131
00:05:49,300 -->
00:05:52,666
we really had this cosmic connection
132
00:05:52,900 -->
00:05:54,800
yes cosmic Galactic
133
00:05:54,800 -->
00:05:56,066
ooh I love that
134
00:05:56,066 -->
00:05:58,766
and then there's like elevation and advancement
135
00:05:58,766 -->
00:06:01,966
that is that is actually your signature
136
00:06:02,033 -->
00:06:03,666
like your personal signature
137
00:06:03,666 -->
00:06:07,700
that's who you are hashtag you can't help it
138
00:06:11,033 -->
00:06:14,100
with everything that I know about you
139
00:06:14,400 -->
00:06:20,933
like from hosting events to leading your team at Oracle
140
00:06:21,233 -->
00:06:23,833
to perhaps like you wanna talk about that
141
00:06:23,833 -->
00:06:26,466
you wanna continue introducing yourself
142
00:06:26,466 -->
00:06:28,900
with also your professional role
143
00:06:29,466 -->
00:06:30,633
yes yeah
144
00:06:30,633 -->
00:06:32,000
let me tell so yes
145
00:06:32,000 -->
00:06:35,466
I wear I've worn a lot of hats in my life
146
00:06:35,466 -->
00:06:39,233
and I I think I'll still wear them throughout my life
147
00:06:39,233 -->
00:06:42,966
I I don't like to be defined as one thing I
148
00:06:42,966 -->
00:06:44,166
but I like
149
00:06:44,166 -->
00:06:46,633
I could say if people say what do you do
150
00:06:46,633 -->
00:06:49,700
I can say I I'm a coach
151
00:06:49,700 -->
00:06:52,266
I'm a professional coach um
152
00:06:52,266 -->
00:06:54,100
PCC ICF coach
153
00:06:54,100 -->
00:06:55,166
I can also say
154
00:06:55,166 -->
00:06:58,333
I'm a senior director of finance at Oracle
155
00:06:58,466 -->
00:07:02,166
who I lead a team global team of 50 people
156
00:07:02,166 -->
00:07:04,900
50+ people and uh
157
00:07:04,900 -->
00:07:09,733
we do sales compensation planning for um
158
00:07:10,000 -->
00:07:12,500
for all of the sales reps at Oracle
159
00:07:12,500 -->
00:07:13,800
we um
160
00:07:14,000 -->
00:07:17,300
plan their annual compensation plans
161
00:07:17,300 -->
00:07:20,666
and create their quotas and targets
162
00:07:20,666 -->
00:07:23,433
and issue their compensation plans
163
00:07:23,433 -->
00:07:27,433
so that's there's a whole body of work around that
164
00:07:27,433 -->
00:07:31,200
and so that's part of my leadership of a process
165
00:07:31,200 -->
00:07:34,100
and then leading a large team of people
166
00:07:34,233 -->
00:07:35,600
um so
167
00:07:35,600 -->
00:07:37,600
and then within my role at Oracle
168
00:07:37,600 -->
00:07:39,766
I've also been able to be a coach
169
00:07:39,766 -->
00:07:42,666
and create coaching programs
170
00:07:42,666 -->
00:07:47,066
so that's like a second job within my corporate job
171
00:07:47,200 -->
00:07:49,466
um so that's been amazing
172
00:07:49,866 -->
00:07:51,000
yes yes
173
00:07:51,000 -->
00:07:54,066
and and then if I like even go out from there
174
00:07:54,066 -->
00:07:56,300
I've been an actor a singer
175
00:07:56,700 -->
00:07:59,100
um I love global travel
176
00:07:59,100 -->
00:07:59,900
I you know
177
00:07:59,900 -->
00:08:02,233
so there's just like a ton of things that
178
00:08:02,233 -->
00:08:05,800
that I love and sometimes at any one point you can
179
00:08:05,800 -->
00:08:10,600
I can focus on one or two or three of them um
180
00:08:10,600 -->
00:08:14,566
but I love like you always say
181
00:08:14,566 -->
00:08:17,666
I love my life I know you love your life
182
00:08:17,700 -->
00:08:21,066
and I want to experience the most of it
183
00:08:21,066 -->
00:08:26,166
and I also want to offer in service to people to um
184
00:08:26,333 -->
00:08:28,800
to help them have better lives
185
00:08:29,000 -->
00:08:31,766
and that's why I love what I do
186
00:08:31,766 -->
00:08:33,866
I love coaching um
187
00:08:33,866 -->
00:08:37,400
why I think you and I connect on so many levels
188
00:08:37,400 -->
00:08:40,366
so so many levels indeed Nathan
189
00:08:40,366 -->
00:08:42,666
and that is like there are so many things that you
190
00:08:42,666 -->
00:08:47,900
mentioned that I adore about you for who you are
191
00:08:47,900 -->
00:08:50,300
what you bring to the world and how you show up
192
00:08:50,300 -->
00:08:52,300
and then you embody every
193
00:08:52,433 -->
00:08:54,600
single thing that you talk about
194
00:08:54,600 -->
00:08:57,366
your generosity your contribution
195
00:08:57,566 -->
00:09:01,700
your kindness your unity mindset
196
00:09:01,900 -->
00:09:03,100
your it's
197
00:09:03,100 -->
00:09:07,933
it's just so delicious to have you not only as a friend
198
00:09:08,033 -->
00:09:13,500
and now also as part of our Academy of neuroscience
199
00:09:13,500 -->
00:09:17,266
technology co creators collaborators
200
00:09:17,366 -->
00:09:19,600
yes and
201
00:09:19,600 -->
00:09:23,433
which also brings me back to that conversation
202
00:09:23,433 -->
00:09:25,933
we had in Los Angeles
203
00:09:26,100 -->
00:09:30,000
talking about coaching and where you are today
204
00:09:30,200 -->
00:09:35,000
having created the internal coaching program at Oracle
205
00:09:35,266 -->
00:09:35,433
I I
206
00:09:35,433 -->
00:09:39,400
I I am just super pumped about it
207
00:09:39,400 -->
00:09:40,766
and I want to just
208
00:09:41,400 -->
00:09:45,166
it like scream to the world with a megaphone
209
00:09:45,400 -->
00:09:48,966
like what we were able to accomplish together
210
00:09:48,966 -->
00:09:52,200
because then you also inspired others in the academy
211
00:09:52,233 -->
00:09:53,933
like Eren as you know
212
00:09:54,233 -->
00:09:57,366
who is also leading an internal
213
00:09:57,366 -->
00:10:01,300
but international coaching program at Pfizer
214
00:10:01,300 -->
00:10:03,500
so would you like to talk about
215
00:10:03,500 -->
00:10:06,800
how that actually came to realization
216
00:10:06,800 -->
00:10:10,766
how you were able to create that program at Oracle
217
00:10:11,200 -->
00:10:12,633
yes yes
218
00:10:12,633 -->
00:10:13,966
I yes
219
00:10:13,966 -->
00:10:14,700
I I'm
220
00:10:14,700 -->
00:10:16,366
and I'm so proud of it it's
221
00:10:16,366 -->
00:10:17,866
when I think of the
222
00:10:17,866 -->
00:10:20,866
like different accomplishments I've had in my life
223
00:10:20,866 -->
00:10:23,966
this is one I'm really proud of and
224
00:10:23,966 -->
00:10:26,500
and excited about um
225
00:10:26,500 -->
00:10:31,600
I think if I can I'll go back a little bit in history
226
00:10:31,866 -->
00:10:32,666
yeah um
227
00:10:32,766 -->
00:10:36,366
because I got my first coaching
228
00:10:36,366 -->
00:10:40,966
I did my first coaching training in 2003
229
00:10:40,966 -->
00:10:44,666
2004 in the like the early
230
00:10:45,266 -->
00:10:49,500
the dawn of time in a personal coaching haha
231
00:10:50,066 -->
00:10:50,866
what um
232
00:10:51,066 -->
00:10:52,800
so I got a certified
233
00:10:53,600 -->
00:10:57,766
I got a certification back then and I
234
00:10:57,766 -->
00:11:05,266
between like 2004 and 2,021 22
235
00:11:05,266 -->
00:11:09,766
I did about 200+ hours of coaching
236
00:11:09,766 -->
00:11:12,133
so it's like I had a side business
237
00:11:12,433 -->
00:11:16,433
you know one year I might have coached 20 or 30 hours
238
00:11:16,433 -->
00:11:18,366
I skipped a year then I coach
239
00:11:18,400 -->
00:11:20,866
so it was something I always believed in
240
00:11:20,866 -->
00:11:25,300
I always loved but I never quite knew how I would
241
00:11:25,566 -->
00:11:28,766
really manifest it in a bigger way
242
00:11:28,766 -->
00:11:31,800
but I always knew that it was something that
243
00:11:31,800 -->
00:11:34,033
that I would at some point
244
00:11:34,033 -->
00:11:36,300
you know it was always on my radar
245
00:11:36,366 -->
00:11:39,300
even if it was just like a small little
246
00:11:39,500 -->
00:11:41,966
dot on the radar oh yeah um
247
00:11:41,966 -->
00:11:42,566
so then
248
00:11:42,566 -->
00:11:47,566
when I met you and Learned about neuroshine technology
249
00:11:47,566 -->
00:11:48,566
and the
250
00:11:49,233 -->
00:11:53,900
the the ICF accredited training programs
251
00:11:54,066 -->
00:11:59,066
I started to to go down that path and then it
252
00:11:59,066 -->
00:12:01,900
it all started to become clear to me like it
253
00:12:01,900 -->
00:12:05,700
it's difficult sometimes for corporate professionals
254
00:12:05,700 -->
00:12:08,666
to figure out how to lead a
255
00:12:08,666 -->
00:12:14,400
you know side business and do their corporate jobs
256
00:12:14,400 -->
00:12:15,766
if it's a like in
257
00:12:15,766 -->
00:12:18,900
and my job is a pretty substantial one
258
00:12:19,000 -->
00:12:23,633
so I had this breakthrough moment where I was like
259
00:12:23,633 -->
00:12:26,600
why couldn't I do my coaching at Oracle
260
00:12:26,700 -->
00:12:27,633
why don't I
261
00:12:27,633 -->
00:12:32,133
see if I can embed this into my existing role
262
00:12:32,400 -->
00:12:36,200
and have it be an extension of um
263
00:12:36,700 -->
00:12:39,966
of my role as a broader part of my leadership
264
00:12:40,266 -->
00:12:42,866
so we I
265
00:12:42,866 -->
00:12:44,366
we talked about that I
266
00:12:44,366 -->
00:12:47,800
I took your programs and then it was like oh it
267
00:12:47,800 -->
00:12:51,066
it all everything felt possible
268
00:12:51,533 -->
00:12:52,400
you know I was like
269
00:12:52,400 -->
00:12:56,800
I can get to my PCC I can get my 500 hours
270
00:12:56,866 -->
00:13:00,400
I can I started talking to someone in organization
271
00:13:00,400 -->
00:13:02,433
and talent development at Oracle
272
00:13:02,433 -->
00:13:04,900
I talked to my senior leadership
273
00:13:05,000 -->
00:13:10,000
and it magically all started with a lot of intention
274
00:13:10,400 -->
00:13:11,833
you know and
275
00:13:11,833 -->
00:13:15,733
and work it all started to come together
276
00:13:15,900 -->
00:13:19,566
and in the last two and a half years
277
00:13:19,633 -->
00:13:22,466
I've coached 50 people um
278
00:13:22,466 -->
00:13:27,166
within Oracle in three different coaching programs
279
00:13:27,300 -->
00:13:30,866
wow and so I feel like I'm just getting started
280
00:13:31,033 -->
00:13:33,133
but those um
281
00:13:33,466 -->
00:13:35,966
in those with those 50 people
282
00:13:35,966 -->
00:13:39,433
and the nearly 300 hours that I've coached
283
00:13:39,433 -->
00:13:45,966
I was able to surpass my 500 hours I needed for my PCC
284
00:13:46,366 -->
00:13:48,866
um pre PCC credential with
285
00:13:48,866 -->
00:13:51,500
with ICF and um
286
00:13:52,000 -->
00:13:54,800
along with your expert um
287
00:13:54,833 -->
00:13:58,000
training programs and guidance in uh
288
00:13:59,366 -->
00:14:01,166
reaching that milestone
289
00:14:02,033 -->
00:14:03,600
yes oh my God
290
00:14:03,600 -->
00:14:07,800
this is something that I was really looking forward to
291
00:14:07,833 -->
00:14:10,966
talk about because I do remember our conversations
292
00:14:11,033 -->
00:14:12,200
and I do remember
293
00:14:12,833 -->
00:14:16,733
and then now it is actually a reality that we celebrate
294
00:14:16,966 -->
00:14:20,433
and you actually made such a huge difference
295
00:14:20,433 -->
00:14:21,700
like remember
296
00:14:21,833 -->
00:14:23,300
it was just an idea
297
00:14:23,300 -->
00:14:25,933
and that's what I want to actually share
298
00:14:25,966 -->
00:14:27,566
with the audience like
299
00:14:27,600 -->
00:14:33,066
sometimes your ideas are so big and you doubt yourself
300
00:14:33,366 -->
00:14:34,200
you were like oh
301
00:14:34,200 -->
00:14:35,400
come on can I do this
302
00:14:35,400 -->
00:14:36,800
like is it really possible
303
00:14:37,000 -->
00:14:40,566
what if it is possible and Nathan is a great example
304
00:14:40,566 -->
00:14:42,700
I'm getting goosebumps like whenever I have goosebumps
305
00:14:42,700 -->
00:14:44,600
like OK confirmation
306
00:14:46,566 -->
00:14:49,266
so this is so huge it's like win
307
00:14:49,266 -->
00:14:50,166
win win win win
308
00:14:51,433 -->
00:14:54,566
for everybody in the entire universe
309
00:14:54,566 -->
00:14:58,566
like your ecosystem everybody that you touched
310
00:14:58,566 -->
00:15:01,366
you coached those 50 people
311
00:15:01,566 -->
00:15:05,166
more goosebumps imagine what
312
00:15:05,666 -->
00:15:09,000
kind of transformations that they have experienced
313
00:15:09,000 -->
00:15:09,900
through your guidance
314
00:15:09,900 -->
00:15:13,566
through your coaching program inside Oracle
315
00:15:13,766 -->
00:15:17,600
and imagine like what else is possible
316
00:15:17,600 -->
00:15:20,700
so now before we go on
317
00:15:20,700 -->
00:15:24,300
because I like we can take this to all kinds of places
318
00:15:24,400 -->
00:15:27,300
what I would love to ask you
319
00:15:27,300 -->
00:15:29,600
so that we can also inspire everybody
320
00:15:29,766 -->
00:15:33,466
in their corporate world in their corporate jobs is
321
00:15:33,466 -->
00:15:34,233
yes
322
00:15:34,300 -->
00:15:36,900
what is the biggest obstacle you faced
323
00:15:39,100 -->
00:15:41,700
and how did you overcome it
324
00:15:41,700 -->
00:15:44,400
wow that's a great question
325
00:15:45,433 -->
00:15:46,133
yeah
326
00:15:46,166 -->
00:15:50,033
I I think the biggest obstacle is often our own mind
327
00:15:50,033 -->
00:15:53,000
the limitations we place in our own minds
328
00:15:53,766 -->
00:15:55,666
so it's it's sort of the
329
00:15:55,666 -->
00:16:00,000
the limitations like there's not enough time
330
00:16:00,033 -->
00:16:03,133
who will really believe this is possible
331
00:16:03,633 -->
00:16:04,766
who you know
332
00:16:04,766 -->
00:16:07,033
and then so I think I
333
00:16:07,033 -->
00:16:10,700
I first had to get past that my own limit
334
00:16:10,700 -->
00:16:13,200
you know mind limitations right
335
00:16:13,200 -->
00:16:17,166
and then as I started to sort of go down the path of
336
00:16:17,166 -->
00:16:20,266
of creating a program the
337
00:16:20,466 -->
00:16:22,433
some of the obstacles are just
338
00:16:22,433 -->
00:16:26,233
it takes a little bit of time to develop this right
339
00:16:26,233 -->
00:16:29,666
so patience is a really critical
340
00:16:29,866 -->
00:16:33,233
value to to hold when
341
00:16:33,233 -->
00:16:35,300
when trying to do something like this
342
00:16:35,300 -->
00:16:37,766
but I always had um
343
00:16:37,766 -->
00:16:41,366
I held on to sort of the optimism that it was possible
344
00:16:41,400 -->
00:16:44,200
I talk to people like you
345
00:16:44,200 -->
00:16:45,566
who believed in me
346
00:16:45,566 -->
00:16:47,966
and believed that it could be possible
347
00:16:48,466 -->
00:16:50,033
and then um
348
00:16:50,033 -->
00:16:53,200
and then I just went step by step by step
349
00:16:53,266 -->
00:16:54,766
you know what's the next step
350
00:16:54,766 -->
00:16:57,366
that's all that's probably one of my biggest
351
00:16:57,966 -->
00:16:59,900
the ways that I challenge myself
352
00:17:00,000 -->
00:17:02,266
the way I challenge my teams or anyone
353
00:17:02,266 -->
00:17:04,133
like if if
354
00:17:04,666 -->
00:17:07,766
there's an obstacle of getting something accomplished
355
00:17:07,766 -->
00:17:11,500
just think like even if it seems like way out here
356
00:17:11,700 -->
00:17:14,066
what's the next step I can take right
357
00:17:14,066 -->
00:17:16,266
what's the next step what's the next step
358
00:17:16,266 -->
00:17:18,666
so it there was always a next step
359
00:17:18,666 -->
00:17:20,966
and I just kept taking the next step
360
00:17:20,966 -->
00:17:26,666
even when sometimes there would be a delay or a lag or
361
00:17:26,800 -->
00:17:28,833
you know but I
362
00:17:28,833 -->
00:17:33,466
I got I think the other thing that um
363
00:17:34,300 -->
00:17:37,166
is find someone within a if
364
00:17:37,166 -->
00:17:39,300
if someone else were trying to do this
365
00:17:39,300 -->
00:17:40,700
I would say find someone who
366
00:17:41,700 -->
00:17:43,800
who believes in you oh
367
00:17:43,800 -->
00:17:45,366
and can help you know
368
00:17:45,366 -->
00:17:48,433
champion your idea so
369
00:17:48,433 -->
00:17:50,500
and that's not always a lot of people
370
00:17:50,500 -->
00:17:54,200
but there's often one or two people who believe in you
371
00:17:54,200 -->
00:17:58,200
and can help you sort of move that along wow
372
00:17:58,366 -->
00:17:59,866
does that answer your question
373
00:17:59,866 -->
00:18:02,066
absolutely super precious
374
00:18:02,066 -->
00:18:03,933
absolutely first
375
00:18:04,000 -->
00:18:07,200
coach yourself rewire your own mind
376
00:18:07,200 -->
00:18:08,466
and believe in it
377
00:18:08,466 -->
00:18:11,000
and then find perhaps just one person better
378
00:18:11,433 -->
00:18:12,466
if it is to
379
00:18:12,466 -->
00:18:16,200
to also believe in your internal and external belief
380
00:18:16,400 -->
00:18:18,100
that's what I am hearing from you
381
00:18:18,100 -->
00:18:19,566
yeah yes
382
00:18:19,833 -->
00:18:20,766
and then take the
383
00:18:20,766 -->
00:18:25,433
and then just know that sometimes it takes some time
384
00:18:25,433 -->
00:18:29,400
so you have to be patient with in the process
385
00:18:29,400 -->
00:18:33,400
but but as the process starts to unfold
386
00:18:33,400 -->
00:18:36,400
even if it's slower than we would like
387
00:18:36,500 -->
00:18:38,333
there's always a next step
388
00:18:38,466 -->
00:18:41,066
and then there's always a next step after that
389
00:18:41,200 -->
00:18:41,466
yeah
390
00:18:41,466 -->
00:18:43,833
and then this is something that we always talk about
391
00:18:43,833 -->
00:18:46,066
even as our faculty as you know
392
00:18:46,066 -->
00:18:48,700
we are the turtles ha ha ha
393
00:18:50,400 -->
00:18:52,700
yeah we make stuff happen
394
00:18:52,700 -->
00:18:53,666
you know yes
395
00:18:53,666 -->
00:18:54,200
we do yes
396
00:18:54,200 -->
00:18:56,566
and that was my whole like from
397
00:18:56,566 -->
00:19:00,600
from 2004 when I got my first um
398
00:19:00,600 -->
00:19:02,166
coaching certification
399
00:19:02,166 -->
00:19:06,366
to getting my PCC credential in 2025
400
00:19:06,566 -->
00:19:08,233
21 years
401
00:19:08,233 -->
00:19:11,166
it was a slow sort of slow path
402
00:19:11,233 -->
00:19:14,833
but an intentional path and I got there
403
00:19:14,833 -->
00:19:15,866
yeah exactly
404
00:19:15,966 -->
00:19:19,500
so I offer anyone who's feels like they're at
405
00:19:19,500 -->
00:19:21,266
you know walking like the turtle
406
00:19:21,266 -->
00:19:22,600
it's okay you know
407
00:19:22,600 -->
00:19:25,000
just keep taking the next step
408
00:19:25,000 -->
00:19:26,966
what a great reminder I love that
409
00:19:26,966 -->
00:19:28,200
I know slow
410
00:19:28,200 -->
00:19:31,566
but through you're just going to be super through
411
00:19:31,566 -->
00:19:32,500
absolutely
412
00:19:33,166 -->
00:19:34,966
which actually um
413
00:19:35,700 -->
00:19:38,966
what like wants me to ask you this question too
414
00:19:39,033 -->
00:19:39,966
obviously
415
00:19:40,166 -->
00:19:44,666
you were in the world of coaching way before me
416
00:19:44,666 -->
00:19:49,400
and you got your certification 21 years ago
417
00:19:49,466 -->
00:19:53,700
and I would love to ask this question to you
418
00:19:54,666 -->
00:19:58,066
if you remember your first certification program
419
00:19:58,666 -->
00:20:00,200
it's been a while ago right
420
00:20:00,400 -->
00:20:03,733
if you remember how was your first
421
00:20:04,033 -->
00:20:05,466
learning experience
422
00:20:05,466 -->
00:20:08,400
with the first certification program that you
423
00:20:08,633 -->
00:20:13,800
did years ago and how was it with my nourish
424
00:20:13,800 -->
00:20:16,466
and technology coaching certification program
425
00:20:16,633 -->
00:20:18,200
how would you compare them
426
00:20:18,200 -->
00:20:18,866
and how Nourish
427
00:20:19,900 -->
00:20:22,566
Shine technology made a difference for you
428
00:20:22,600 -->
00:20:26,200
back in that time everything was over the phone
429
00:20:26,200 -->
00:20:28,300
there was no zoom or anything
430
00:20:28,300 -->
00:20:29,633
so you can imagine
431
00:20:29,633 -->
00:20:30,366
even a remote coaching training program was
432
00:20:34,400 -->
00:20:37,266
was done on like a conference call so
433
00:20:37,266 -->
00:20:40,366
so I my coach trainer
434
00:20:40,400 -->
00:20:42,633
a beautiful woman named Joanne I
435
00:20:42,633 -->
00:20:44,166
I still uh
436
00:20:44,700 -->
00:20:46,366
really value her
437
00:20:46,366 -->
00:20:49,866
her teaching and her energy from that time um
438
00:20:49,866 -->
00:20:52,633
I didn't meet her in person until like
439
00:20:52,633 -->
00:20:55,300
a year after I completed the program
440
00:20:55,300 -->
00:20:55,700
I
441
00:20:55,700 -->
00:21:00,033
that was the first time I saw her face because we were
442
00:21:00,033 -->
00:21:01,400
back then we were all on
443
00:21:01,433 -->
00:21:03,466
on conference calls um
444
00:21:03,466 -->
00:21:06,333
so that was just a logistical difference
445
00:21:06,566 -->
00:21:08,800
um I think there was I mean
446
00:21:08,800 -->
00:21:11,700
there were certainly a it was um
447
00:21:11,866 -->
00:21:16,366
that particular program became ICF accredited later
448
00:21:16,366 -->
00:21:18,900
but it in that in that time
449
00:21:18,900 -->
00:21:22,100
I think there was still this sort of question
450
00:21:22,100 -->
00:21:24,166
even with a lot of coaching schools
451
00:21:24,166 -->
00:21:28,400
as to whether the ICF path was valid or not
452
00:21:28,400 -->
00:21:30,200
and then when you finish the program
453
00:21:30,200 -->
00:21:32,100
it was still a little bit of a
454
00:21:32,200 -->
00:21:35,000
question Mark on how you could get there
455
00:21:35,000 -->
00:21:36,233
you know and so fast
456
00:21:36,233 -->
00:21:39,933
forward to Academy of Neuroshine Technology
457
00:21:40,066 -->
00:21:42,433
where you have all the steps laid out
458
00:21:42,433 -->
00:21:47,366
and so anyone who really wants to get credentialed
459
00:21:47,600 -->
00:21:50,666
all of that that path is very clear
460
00:21:50,666 -->
00:21:54,866
and you and your team now I'm part of that team
461
00:21:54,866 -->
00:21:59,633
yes we support people at every step along the way right
462
00:21:59,633 -->
00:22:02,000
so I think that's something that's um
463
00:22:02,000 -->
00:22:03,933
that's incredibly different
464
00:22:04,133 -->
00:22:05,833
you know now from
465
00:22:05,833 -->
00:22:07,966
from back in the the early days
466
00:22:07,966 -->
00:22:11,633
when we were all sort of figuring out where to go from
467
00:22:11,633 -->
00:22:14,433
from where the coaching program went um
468
00:22:14,433 -->
00:22:17,866
I think what's also different about um
469
00:22:17,866 -->
00:22:18,900
your program is
470
00:22:18,900 -->
00:22:21,300
you've integrated all these different sort of
471
00:22:21,300 -->
00:22:24,200
disciplines and philosophies into it
472
00:22:24,200 -->
00:22:25,666
so you've um
473
00:22:25,666 -->
00:22:30,666
you've created a a really cool system that's good for
474
00:22:31,566 -->
00:22:33,266
both you as the coach
475
00:22:33,266 -->
00:22:37,366
and then you as an individual in enriching your own um
476
00:22:37,366 -->
00:22:38,966
thinking and and life
477
00:22:38,966 -->
00:22:40,500
so it you're
478
00:22:40,500 -->
00:22:42,133
you're doing like uh
479
00:22:42,600 -->
00:22:44,133
it's like a double uh
480
00:22:44,666 -->
00:22:46,966
yeah benefit in
481
00:22:47,100 -->
00:22:50,566
in getting to really think about what's
482
00:22:51,233 -->
00:22:53,466
making you a better person
483
00:22:53,666 -->
00:22:55,400
which makes you a better coach
484
00:22:55,400 -->
00:22:57,833
and then also teaching the
485
00:22:57,833 -->
00:23:01,600
you know coaching practical coaching methods and uh
486
00:23:01,600 -->
00:23:02,566
principles
487
00:23:02,700 -->
00:23:03,466
I you know
488
00:23:03,466 -->
00:23:05,766
what I always say I needed something practical
489
00:23:07,100 -->
00:23:09,833
because I do have a very critical mind
490
00:23:09,833 -->
00:23:11,966
like if I don't have the evidence
491
00:23:12,266 -->
00:23:14,033
if I don't understand okay
492
00:23:14,033 -->
00:23:15,300
I'm learning this why
493
00:23:15,300 -->
00:23:16,500
like how am I gonna apply it
494
00:23:16,500 -->
00:23:18,333
like how is it gonna change my life
495
00:23:18,633 -->
00:23:22,433
I always like come from that kind of like critical OK
496
00:23:22,433 -->
00:23:24,500
just like shatter the whole Assumption
497
00:23:24,500 -->
00:23:27,033
and then give me the like practical thing
498
00:23:27,033 -->
00:23:30,933
if I didn't hear that I always questioned
499
00:23:31,133 -->
00:23:33,466
everything that I have Learned in my life
500
00:23:33,466 -->
00:23:35,500
and then that's why I ended up creating something
501
00:23:35,500 -->
00:23:37,500
super practical and I'm
502
00:23:37,500 -->
00:23:41,000
I'm so happy that it is actually helping
503
00:23:41,100 -->

534
00:25:04,066 -->
00:25:06,366
and how it's helped you succeed
535
00:25:06,466 -->
00:25:07,800
oh absolutely
536
00:25:07,800 -->
00:25:09,033
it's it's pleasure
537
00:25:09,033 -->
00:25:12,033
and I'm glad you're asking this question
538
00:25:12,033 -->
00:25:12,666
because it
539
00:25:12,666 -->
00:25:15,433
now goes back to the practical side of things right
540
00:25:15,433 -->
00:25:16,166
it's
541
00:25:16,166 -->
00:25:21,100
the way that I rewired my mindset
542
00:25:21,100 -->
00:25:23,966
by getting rid of OPO's
543
00:25:23,966 -->
00:25:26,966
which is a part of my nurishine technology
544
00:25:26,966 -->
00:25:28,033
as we teach
545
00:25:28,033 -->
00:25:30,633
opium stands for other people's opinions
546
00:25:30,633 -->
00:25:32,433
for those of you who are in the audience
547
00:25:33,633 -->
00:25:40,666
other people's opinions we are conditioned and raised
548
00:25:40,833 -->
00:25:42,466
sort of in an environment
549
00:25:42,466 -->
00:25:47,166
where we are taught to receive external validation
550
00:25:47,266 -->
00:25:50,866
we are taught to ask permission from others
551
00:25:50,966 -->
00:25:54,066
to make decisions for ourselves
552
00:25:54,066 -->
00:25:56,933
and that created this big huge
553
00:25:58,300 -->
00:25:59,333
enormous false identity that we all have
554
00:26:03,666 -->
00:26:05,666
and we need to shatter actually
555
00:26:05,800 -->
00:26:08,933
and that to me was actually
556
00:26:09,366 -->
00:26:14,100
I had this spark in myself since I was a little girl
557
00:26:14,100 -->
00:26:16,866
I always questioned the system
558
00:26:16,866 -->
00:26:19,466
I always questioned everything
559
00:26:20,066 -->
00:26:24,166
the first time I questioned was when I was 8 years old
560
00:26:24,166 -->
00:26:26,166
when my mom was insisting on something
561
00:26:26,166 -->
00:26:27,766
and I was asking her why
562
00:26:27,766 -->
00:26:30,233
and then she was not able to break it down to me
563
00:26:30,233 -->
00:26:32,266
the reason why I was not convinced
564
00:26:32,266 -->
00:26:33,566
and therefore I was like no
565
00:26:33,566 -->
00:26:34,600
not doing that
566
00:26:34,766 -->
00:26:36,466
I remember all that
567
00:26:36,466 -->
00:26:40,033
and so that is actually the first spark of me
568
00:26:40,200 -->
00:26:42,366
okay this is an OPO right
569
00:26:42,366 -->
00:26:44,466
like in my subconscious mind
570
00:26:44,566 -->
00:26:46,233
why do I need this external thing
571
00:26:46,233 -->
00:26:49,200
my internal compass is telling me another way
572
00:26:49,400 -->
00:26:50,433
and like
573
00:26:50,433 -->
00:26:54,500
I kept on collecting these type of experiences
574
00:26:55,233 -->
00:26:57,066
throughout my entire life
575
00:26:57,233 -->
00:27:00,366
where I didn't know what it was
576
00:27:00,366 -->
00:27:03,666
but I had this inner knowing that was
577
00:27:03,700 -->
00:27:07,633
stronger than anything else including
578
00:27:07,633 -->
00:27:09,600
I'm good getting goosebumps again
579
00:27:09,866 -->
00:27:13,400
including a very critical milestone in my life
580
00:27:13,400 -->
00:27:16,766
where I was choosing my degree
581
00:27:16,766 -->
00:27:19,700
my bachelor's degree in my high school
582
00:27:19,700 -->
00:27:21,166
and for those of you
583
00:27:21,166 -->
00:27:24,933
I am actually a valedictorian of my own hahaha
584
00:27:25,033 -->
00:27:27,866
high school when it comes to my own field
585
00:27:30,166 -->
00:27:33,566
and all these teachers they they were telling me oh
586
00:27:33,566 -->
00:27:34,400
you're so bright
587
00:27:34,400 -->
00:27:38,366
so brilliant and go study science and I'm like well
588
00:27:38,366 -->
00:27:41,066
no thank you because I'm gonna study communications
589
00:27:41,533 -->
00:27:42,700
and then they're like
590
00:27:42,700 -->
00:27:45,800
oh why are you doing that communications
591
00:27:45,900 -->
00:27:49,000
and you know those social sciences are for people
592
00:27:49,000 -->
00:27:53,266
who cannot understand the complications of the science
593
00:27:53,266 -->
00:27:54,600
you have the brilliant mind
594
00:27:54,600 -->
00:27:55,900
you have the shiny mind
595
00:27:56,233 -->
00:27:58,666
go get that kind of an education
596
00:27:58,666 -->
00:28:00,100
you're gonna be great
597
00:28:00,100 -->
00:28:05,400
I know that we took a survey when I was in high school
598
00:28:05,633 -->
00:28:12,766
I know my survey result had 97 point out of 100
599
00:28:13,000 -->
00:28:17,400
that showed me I was super convincing
600
00:28:17,400 -->
00:28:22,033
like my persuasion score was 97 out of 100 wow
601
00:28:22,033 -->
00:28:22,300
and then
602
00:28:22,300 -->
00:28:25,600
I knew that it was something to do with communications
603
00:28:26,266 -->
00:28:27,200
whereas my teachers were telling me no
604
00:28:29,300 -->
00:28:31,300
you should go pursue that way I'm like no
605
00:28:31,300 -->
00:28:33,933
I'm gonna go that way even dad I was like
606
00:28:34,600 -->
00:28:38,366
why are these people not seeing me as who
607
00:28:38,366 -->
00:28:41,666
I am with all my strengths and what I am capable of
608
00:28:41,666 -->
00:28:44,800
that was another to me opo
609
00:28:44,800 -->
00:28:46,233
external validation
610
00:28:46,233 -->
00:28:48,866
being shattered from the core of it
611
00:28:49,166 -->
00:28:51,700
and throughout my entire life
612
00:28:51,800 -->
00:28:54,566
like one after the other my corporate career
613
00:28:54,566 -->
00:28:57,300
in the advertising and marketing world
614
00:28:57,300 -->
00:28:58,966
and I always questioning myself
615
00:28:58,966 -->
00:29:01,033
my worth because I didn't feel belong
616
00:29:01,033 -->
00:29:01,966
and they're like
617
00:29:01,966 -->
00:29:06,133
I kept on questioning myself and long story short
618
00:29:06,466 -->
00:29:12,300
the way that I created my neuroshine technology
619
00:29:12,400 -->
00:29:16,800
especially with my shiny Mind principle was that hey
620
00:29:17,233 -->
00:29:18,800
watch out for the opiates
621
00:29:18,966 -->
00:29:23,200
because it belongs to those people
622
00:29:23,233 -->
00:29:26,100
it's not necessarily your own throat
623
00:29:26,433 -->
00:29:32,000
and we are supposed to live in alignment with our own
624
00:29:32,000 -->
00:29:36,533
throat and that is also why practically
625
00:29:36,833 -->
00:29:40,200
I don't really buy the opiates
626
00:29:40,666 -->
00:29:44,800
I don't buy the opinions of others
627
00:29:44,966 -->
00:29:46,800
which comes through social media
628
00:29:46,800 -->
00:29:49,466
which comes through TV which comes through
629
00:29:49,666 -->
00:29:52,400
what we are supposed to be eating outside
630
00:29:52,400 -->
00:29:54,766
or what we're supposed to be consuming
631
00:29:54,766 -->
00:29:57,333
in terms of our conversations even
632
00:29:57,533 -->
00:29:59,800
so that's why I'm super
633
00:29:59,900 -->
00:30:04,866
practically careful about what I consume in my system
634
00:30:04,866 -->
00:30:07,233
not only the food
635
00:30:07,233 -->
00:30:10,400
but also the energy everything is energy right
636
00:30:10,433 -->
00:30:11,733
in terms of conversations and information
637
00:30:14,166 -->
00:30:14,500
and obviously food and and and energy
638
00:30:17,666 -->
00:30:20,566
all that is energy at the end
639
00:30:20,566 -->
00:30:24,300
all is frequency and it all starts within
640
00:30:24,300 -->
00:30:27,133
and it requires solid inner knowing
641
00:30:28,033 -->
00:30:29,466
and that is what I based my neuroshine technology on
642
00:30:33,400 -->
00:30:35,433
the the foundational information is within you
643
00:30:37,800 -->
00:30:42,400
like the the technology for truth is within you
644
00:30:42,433 -->
00:30:44,666
that's why yeah you just combined your
645
00:30:44,666 -->
00:30:48,366
whose truth principle and the shiny mind principle
646
00:30:49,166 -->
00:30:51,600
principles together um
647
00:30:51,600 -->
00:30:54,100
and it sounds like you you early on
648
00:30:54,100 -->
00:30:55,100
you had a sort of
649
00:30:55,100 -->
00:30:58,000
fundamental reckoning within yourself
650
00:30:58,400 -->
00:31:00,566
about living to your own truth
651
00:31:00,566 -->
00:31:03,133
and through other people's opinions
652
00:31:03,400 -->
00:31:07,866
and then over time you've just continued to evolve in
653
00:31:07,866 -->
00:31:12,066
the practices of what your truth is yeah
654
00:31:12,066 -->
00:31:15,166
at in on so many different levels yeah
655
00:31:15,166 -->
00:31:17,566
um which is so wonderful when I
656
00:31:17,566 -->
00:31:18,766
you know reach out to you
657
00:31:18,766 -->
00:31:20,900
whether we're working on you know
658
00:31:20,900 -->
00:31:22,366
neuroshine technology
659
00:31:22,366 -->
00:31:24,933
or if we're just talking as friends
660
00:31:25,166 -->
00:31:28,066
I know I can always come to you with
661
00:31:28,600 -->
00:31:31,400
an inspirational thought or idea
662
00:31:31,400 -->
00:31:34,166
or ask you a question and we
663
00:31:34,166 -->
00:31:37,233
we go deep and I'm never just gonna talk
664
00:31:37,233 -->
00:31:40,733
have a shallow conversation with you about the news or
665
00:31:41,600 -->
00:31:42,400
you know
666
00:31:43,000 -->
00:31:44,166
or just uh
667
00:31:45,466 -->
00:31:50,733
BS ha ha ha yeah that's the thing I
668
00:31:50,833 -->
00:31:53,766
I really wanna go so deep
669
00:31:54,066 -->
00:31:56,566
I believe this is what we need
670
00:31:56,700 -->
00:31:58,700
even more in today's world
671
00:31:58,700 -->
00:32:01,733
like deepening of our own inner compass
672
00:32:01,833 -->
00:32:04,700
don't you think yes yes
673
00:32:04,700 -->
00:32:06,900
absolutely and you um
674
00:32:06,966 -->
00:32:09,633
and and to sort of bring it back to coaching
675
00:32:09,633 -->
00:32:12,166
I think the um
676
00:32:12,433 -->
00:32:16,200
all of the principles you bring about listening um
677
00:32:16,200 -->
00:32:18,366
like coaching is really a
678
00:32:18,366 -->
00:32:21,466
a process of listening more than anything
679
00:32:21,833 -->
00:32:24,700
and the act of listening and the way that
680
00:32:24,700 -->
00:32:27,900
that helps us go deep within ourselves
681
00:32:27,900 -->
00:32:30,033
with our clients with um
682
00:32:30,033 -->
00:32:33,066
our students um so that's
683
00:32:33,066 -->
00:32:37,166
that's something that I've really benefited from
684
00:32:37,166 -->
00:32:38,266
from your work
685
00:32:38,266 -->
00:32:42,100
and from just the practice of coaching in general
686
00:32:42,400 -->
00:32:45,166
that is exactly what I was going to ask you
687
00:32:45,300 -->
00:32:47,600
so I can go back to my question
688
00:32:47,600 -->
00:32:50,533
if I may psychic connection yes
689
00:32:50,833 -->
00:32:53,333
you see that's how the universe works
690
00:32:53,400 -->
00:32:55,566
so my question is because
691
00:32:55,566 -->
00:32:55,766
you know
692
00:32:55,766 -->
00:33:00,800
we have majority of our students in the corporate world
693
00:33:00,800 -->
00:33:03,066
and we want to help them
694
00:33:03,166 -->
00:33:06,800
if they want to grow personally professionally
695
00:33:06,800 -->
00:33:08,666
financially spiritually
696
00:33:08,666 -->
00:33:11,766
and obviously you being in the corporate world
697
00:33:11,766 -->
00:33:14,400
and leading a large international group
698
00:33:14,400 -->
00:33:15,700
and obviously
699
00:33:16,466 -->
00:33:19,900
helping them evolve to their better selves
700
00:33:19,900 -->
00:33:21,266
in the corporate world
701
00:33:21,266 -->
00:33:23,133
I was going to ask
702
00:33:23,166 -->
00:33:28,866
what do you see in today's world in 2,025
703
00:33:28,866 -->
00:33:33,700
what do you see as the most important
704
00:33:34,033 -->
00:33:37,766
mindset shift that has to happen
705
00:33:37,833 -->
00:33:41,133
for people who are still in the corporate world
706
00:33:41,200 -->
00:33:44,500
there's probably more than one answer to that question
707
00:33:44,500 -->
00:33:47,966
but I think helping people to
708
00:33:48,600 -->
00:33:51,333
connect with who they really are
709
00:33:51,833 -->
00:33:54,900
is a huge shift because so
710
00:33:54,900 -->
00:33:58,566
so many times in the corporate world
711
00:33:58,666 -->
00:34:01,100
we get stuck on our title
712
00:34:01,300 -->
00:34:05,700
or are just a certain set of accomplishments
713
00:34:06,166 -->
00:34:08,300
um what we do
714
00:34:08,500 -->
00:34:12,633
but underlying that is who we really are
715
00:34:12,633 -->
00:34:16,500
yeah and I think that when we connect to that
716
00:34:16,500 -->
00:34:19,200
when I say said to you earlier
717
00:34:19,200 -->
00:34:22,000
like I'm here to empower and enlighten
718
00:34:22,233 -->
00:34:24,800
and enable and advance
719
00:34:24,800 -->
00:34:27,566
and like that's part of who I really am
720
00:34:27,566 -->
00:34:28,466
like I yes
721
00:34:28,466 -->
00:34:30,766
I do a a role I
722
00:34:30,766 -->
00:34:34,400
I figure out compensation plans for people and how
723
00:34:34,400 -->
00:34:35,000
you know like
724
00:34:35,000 -->
00:34:36,266
and all of that's important
725
00:34:36,266 -->
00:34:39,100
it's a it's a process for yeah
726
00:34:39,100 -->
00:34:42,700
you know working and making money and
727
00:34:42,800 -->
00:34:43,700
you know
728
00:34:44,300 -->
00:34:48,766
but that's just a that's just a part of who we are
729
00:34:48,766 -->
00:34:50,433
so I think when
730
00:34:50,433 -->
00:34:54,466
when people start to shift in their thinking
731
00:34:54,466 -->
00:34:57,600
and in their awareness of who they truly are
732
00:34:57,600 -->
00:35:00,333
and who they're becoming and who they're
733
00:35:00,433 -->
00:35:03,766
what's really possible I think that's a
734
00:35:03,766 -->
00:35:08,366
a transformational shift that
735
00:35:08,966 -->
00:35:12,033
that we as coaches and light workers yeah
736
00:35:12,033 -->
00:35:14,366
can enable that I
737
00:35:14,366 -->
00:35:16,866
I I love that so much
738
00:35:16,866 -->
00:35:18,133
we we've had
739
00:35:18,233 -->
00:35:21,233
this conversation from so many different angles
740
00:35:21,233 -->
00:35:25,900
with so many other Academy of Neuroshine Technology
741
00:35:25,900 -->
00:35:29,400
faculty members on the show Nathan
742
00:35:29,700 -->
00:35:32,066
obviously that is huge
743
00:35:32,066 -->
00:35:35,066
it's that existential part
744
00:35:35,066 -->
00:35:40,033
in the wheel of life that we have at the
745
00:35:40,033 -->
00:35:40,300
you know
746
00:35:40,300 -->
00:35:44,100
nurishine technology curriculum at the very core
747
00:35:44,100 -->
00:35:46,233
we have that existential part like
748
00:35:46,233 -->
00:35:48,466
who are you like yes
749
00:35:48,466 -->
00:35:52,000
why why are you doing what you are doing okay
750
00:35:52,000 -->
00:35:53,566
you're the finance director
751
00:35:53,566 -->
00:35:55,400
senior finance director at Oracle
752
00:35:55,400 -->
00:35:56,900
what what does that mean
753
00:35:57,066 -->
00:35:58,333
haha right
754
00:35:58,500 -->
00:36:01,366
what kind of light are you bringing to your role
755
00:36:01,766 -->
00:36:03,766
yes and why
756
00:36:03,766 -->
00:36:05,166
what are your tools for that
757
00:36:05,166 -->
00:36:07,166
so let me just also ask you
758
00:36:07,633 -->
00:36:10,066
since we're talking about tools and practical stuff
759
00:36:10,233 -->
00:36:11,266
what is your favorite
760
00:36:12,066 -->
00:36:14,666
leadership communication tool that
761
00:36:14,666 -->
00:36:19,666
you know that makes a huge difference in your everyday
762
00:36:19,666 -->
00:36:22,066
leadership role Nathan hmm
763
00:36:23,000 -->
00:36:25,300
I think like
764
00:36:25,300 -->
00:36:28,400
emotional intelligence and active listening
765
00:36:28,566 -->
00:36:31,366
are really important like at a
766
00:36:31,366 -->
00:36:33,900
at a higher level um
767
00:36:34,500 -->
00:36:36,766
and it like just like I told you
768
00:36:36,766 -->
00:36:38,666
in the process of coaching
769
00:36:39,300 -->
00:36:42,466
you really learn you really learn to listen
770
00:36:43,000 -->
00:36:46,833
and so I think that being able to listen
771
00:36:46,833 -->
00:36:50,566
and then go from there
772
00:36:50,833 -->
00:36:53,100
versus just coming always with the
773
00:36:53,100 -->
00:36:55,400
my own preset agenda that's a
774
00:36:55,400 -->
00:36:58,133
that's a huge communication tool
775
00:36:58,433 -->
00:37:00,100
there's also a lot I mean
776
00:37:00,100 -->
00:37:03,300
you have a lot of communication tools you talk about
777
00:37:03,300 -->
00:37:07,700
there's there's some ones I've really started to love
778
00:37:07,700 -->
00:37:09,800
just on a very practical level
779
00:37:09,800 -->
00:37:12,600
the the sandwich model where you
780
00:37:12,600 -->
00:37:14,333
we use you know
781
00:37:14,700 -->
00:37:15,700
but and
782
00:37:15,700 -->
00:37:18,466
and what comes before and after those
783
00:37:18,500 -->
00:37:22,066
like that's been transformational for me and my writing
784
00:37:22,100 -->
00:37:24,833
my business writing like when I use the word
785
00:37:24,833 -->
00:37:28,700
but just the concept of starting with the negative
786
00:37:28,700 -->
00:37:30,233
and ending with the positive
787
00:37:30,233 -->
00:37:31,233
as opposed to
788
00:37:31,233 -->
00:37:34,000
we're conditioned to always end with the negative
789
00:37:34,200 -->
00:37:38,800
so like I catch myself all the time now
790
00:37:38,800 -->
00:37:41,600
in the last few years since learning that
791
00:37:41,600 -->
00:37:45,666
to shift my verbal and written communication
792
00:37:45,866 -->
00:37:49,866
to end with the positive end with where do I wanna go
793
00:37:49,866 -->
00:37:51,400
not what's wrong with things
794
00:37:51,400 -->
00:37:53,633
but where we headed what's
795
00:37:53,633 -->
00:37:58,433
what's the it doesn't mean we shy away from something
796
00:37:58,433 -->
00:38:00,266
negative that might have happened
797
00:38:00,266 -->
00:38:02,166
or something we need to fix
798
00:38:02,233 -->
00:38:05,633
but the focus is on the positive
799
00:38:05,633 -->
00:38:10,300
and that's been super helpful for me in
800
00:38:10,300 -->
00:38:14,300
in my at a at a practical level yeah
801
00:38:14,300 -->
00:38:17,500
I actually 1,000% agree with you
802
00:38:17,500 -->
00:38:20,866
and this was something that I also worked on myself
803
00:38:20,866 -->
00:38:25,500
when I when I was practicing my own tools hahaha
804
00:38:26,233 -->
00:38:29,900
I actually needed to have that mindset shift
805
00:38:30,200 -->
00:38:36,000
I would go rewrite my emails my messages text messages
806
00:38:36,400 -->
00:38:38,833
and it's such a huge shift
807
00:38:38,833 -->
00:38:43,200
although it is such a minor thing to focus on
808
00:38:43,566 -->
00:38:45,666
for those of you who are wondering
809
00:38:45,666 -->
00:38:47,033
what we're talking about like
810
00:38:47,033 -->
00:38:49,566
we do have this sandwich model
811
00:38:49,566 -->
00:38:51,266
in neuroscience technology
812
00:38:51,300 -->
00:38:55,533
once once you start a positive sentence
813
00:38:55,633 -->
00:38:58,366
you don't wanna follow it with a but
814
00:38:58,366 -->
00:38:59,433
because you're ruining it
815
00:38:59,433 -->
00:39:01,933
you're deleting it because but is a negator
816
00:39:02,100 -->
00:39:04,700
you're saying I love your performance
817
00:39:04,700 -->
00:39:09,366
but it's trash like it's in the trash can now
818
00:39:10,833 -->
00:39:13,000
you don't wanna do that right
819
00:39:13,033 -->
00:39:13,966
and and I I
820
00:39:13,966 -->
00:39:16,833
I needed to work on it again and again and again
821
00:39:16,833 -->
00:39:22,266
and now it just like is so loud
822
00:39:22,433 -->
00:39:26,266
whenever I listen to somebody when I hear their butts
823
00:39:28,000 -->
00:39:30,333
after the positive statements
824
00:39:31,066 -->
00:39:32,800
I go like that you know
825
00:39:33,000 -->
00:39:37,100
because it is so important to understand
826
00:39:37,600 -->
00:39:42,866
that language is our reprogramming tool
827
00:39:42,866 -->
00:39:46,000
as human beings why do we have language
828
00:39:46,000 -->
00:39:49,700
we are programming ourselves how are we programming it
829
00:39:49,700 -->
00:39:51,166
like look at AI
830
00:39:51,366 -->
00:39:53,666
what do we have L L m large language models
831
00:39:53,666 -->
00:39:56,266
like what like what are they a language
832
00:39:57,833 -->
00:39:59,766
like break it down right
833
00:39:59,766 -->
00:40:03,866
what are they doing reprogramming how language
834
00:40:03,866 -->
00:40:06,966
so that's why it all comes back to language
835
00:40:07,000 -->
00:40:08,733
and that's why
836
00:40:08,966 -->
00:40:13,700
the language that we use is the most fundamental
837
00:40:13,866 -->
00:40:18,900
reprogramming tool for us to become our best version
838
00:40:19,166 -->
00:40:21,700
and what you just talked about
839
00:40:21,700 -->
00:40:23,100
the sandwich model
840
00:40:23,600 -->
00:40:26,700
also connects with my fundamental understanding of hey
841
00:40:26,700 -->
00:40:29,200
live your life in a delicious way right
842
00:40:29,500 -->
00:40:33,033
like you wanna end every message in a delicious way
843
00:40:33,033 -->
00:40:35,566
otherwise it it doesn't
844
00:40:35,566 -->
00:40:37,100
it doesn't work otherwise you
845
00:40:37,100 -->
00:40:40,366
you are not going to be your most delicious self
846
00:40:40,666 -->
00:40:42,233
and that's why I invite everybody
847
00:40:42,233 -->
00:40:46,333
who is in the audience to do
848
00:40:46,400 -->
00:40:48,766
perhaps a quick language audit
849
00:40:49,366 -->
00:40:51,100
yes yes
850
00:40:51,100 -->
00:40:54,100
right like what are you what are you saying to people
851
00:40:54,100 -->
00:40:57,966
we wanna use our language to expand our possibilities
852
00:40:57,966 -->
00:41:00,033
as opposed to limit them and we're
853
00:41:00,033 -->
00:41:02,366
we're conditioned to
854
00:41:02,666 -->
00:41:05,600
to limit our possibilities with our language
855
00:41:05,600 -->
00:41:09,100
and our language can do exactly the opposite
856
00:41:09,100 -->
00:41:12,400
if we put the right intention and practice behind it
857
00:41:12,400 -->
00:41:15,066
to expand the possibilities
858
00:41:15,066 -->
00:41:19,466
and to construct and create and evolve
859
00:41:19,733 -->
00:41:22,666
and that's what how we wanna use our language
860
00:41:22,666 -->
00:41:24,566
and that's what I love about
861
00:41:24,566 -->
00:41:25,000
you know
862
00:41:25,000 -->
00:41:30,266
your focus on language in neuronshine technology and
863
00:41:30,266 -->
00:41:33,166
and coaching training and everything we
864
00:41:33,200 -->
00:41:38,366
we do to shift our language to what's possible
865
00:41:38,666 -->
00:41:40,366
yeah absolutely
866
00:41:40,366 -->
00:41:41,000
me too
867
00:41:41,000 -->
00:41:46,200
because I remember this quote from Napoleon Bonaparte
868
00:41:46,800 -->
00:41:48,033
he says
869
00:41:48,033 -->
00:41:50,833
this was something that I was using in my leadership
870
00:41:50,833 -->
00:41:52,033
communication strategies
871
00:41:52,033 -->
00:41:54,566
class that I've been teaching at UCLA
872
00:41:54,666 -->
00:41:56,566
I was actually teaching that
873
00:41:56,900 -->
00:41:58,566
coming from that perspective
874
00:41:58,900 -->
00:42:04,266
leadership is actually leading people
875
00:42:05,433 -->
00:42:09,400
with hope like a leader is a dealer in hope
876
00:42:09,400 -->
00:42:11,566
I guess that was the quote
877
00:42:11,633 -->
00:42:13,500
I love that one right
878
00:42:13,500 -->
00:42:17,700
a dealer in hope like you gotta give people hope
879
00:42:18,300 -->
00:42:19,100
yes that's
880
00:42:19,433 -->
00:42:22,566
that's that like hope a brighter
881
00:42:22,600 -->
00:42:26,500
a shinier world like possibilities right
882
00:42:26,500 -->
00:42:27,466
yes
883
00:42:28,666 -->
00:42:29,400
haha
884
00:42:29,566 -->
00:42:32,033
going galactic here we go yes
885
00:42:32,033 -->
00:42:34,266
here we go we go galactic
886
00:42:35,766 -->
00:42:38,000
wow we've been talking for a while Nathan
887
00:42:38,000 -->
00:42:40,400
I believe just like dealing with the hope
888
00:42:40,400 -->
00:42:42,166
and then giving people some beautiful
889
00:42:43,233 -->
00:42:47,200
bright possibilities to look forward to
890
00:42:47,200 -->
00:42:48,966
as a beautiful spot to
891
00:42:48,966 -->
00:42:51,600
to leave everything like a cherry on top
892
00:42:51,600 -->
00:42:53,233
do you agree totally yeah
893
00:42:53,233 -->
00:42:54,666
totally yes
894
00:42:54,666 -->
00:42:56,100
well then I would love to ask
895
00:42:56,100 -->
00:42:59,066
do you have any parting thoughts and messages
896
00:42:59,266 -->
00:43:01,533
that you would love to share with our audience
897
00:43:01,533 -->
00:43:03,166
I think I would
898
00:43:03,166 -->
00:43:06,233
to relate it to some of what we've talked about
899
00:43:06,233 -->
00:43:06,866
I would say to connect with
900
00:43:09,566 -->
00:43:10,866
connect with yourself
901
00:43:11,833 -->
00:43:14,266
know your truth yeah
902
00:43:14,266 -->
00:43:15,133
um
903
00:43:15,200 -->
00:43:16,566
coaching is a
904
00:43:16,566 -->
00:43:20,800
whether as a practitioner or a recipient of coaching
905
00:43:20,800 -->
00:43:21,400
I think it's
906
00:43:21,400 -->
00:43:24,700
it's something that's good for all of us yes
907
00:43:24,700 -->
00:43:25,500
um
908
00:43:25,800 -->
00:43:31,166
yes so I might tell someone to hire a coach um
909
00:43:31,300 -->
00:43:31,400
and
910
00:43:31,400 -->
00:43:38,866
and really get to where you feel obstacles in your life
911
00:43:38,866 -->
00:43:42,233
in getting to where you wanna go
912
00:43:42,233 -->
00:43:44,900
know that you can overcome those
913
00:43:45,233 -->
00:43:49,566
and that your truth will show you the way
914
00:43:49,566 -->
00:43:53,300
and it's just kind of clearing past those
915
00:43:53,300 -->
00:43:56,066
other people's opinions ops
916
00:43:56,100 -->
00:43:57,100
and limiting beliefs and all of those kind of things
917
00:44:01,633 -->
00:44:05,466
and on the other side of that is or under it or in it
918
00:44:05,466 -->
00:44:07,366
however it makes sense for you
919
00:44:07,366 -->
00:44:08,400
is your truth
920
00:44:08,400 -->
00:44:11,900
that will really take you to where you wanna go
921
00:44:11,900 -->
00:44:19,066
and coaching is is a is a process to enable that yes
922
00:44:19,066 -->
00:44:22,766
