How Extreme Actions Spark Success
In this episode, I talk about a coaching session where a client was worried about not selling enough. I tell them about how I faced similar challenges and made big changes that helped me a lot. Additionally, I explain how important it is for all of us to sometimes do things that seem really big or scary to see significant improvements.
I want my listeners to understand that they can make their own decisions about what big changes they need to grow, and it's okay to step out of what feels comfortable.

In this episode, I talked about the fifth step of the accountability code, commitment—and how it’s different from just taking action or implementing ideas. Implementing is when you practice or try something, like brainstorming or writing, but commitment is when you actually finish the task and can prove it’s done. I shared how one of my clients struggled with staying consistent on social media after a group challenge ended, and we realized that making a plan isn’t enough, you have to commit to following through.
