greetings from new jersey dana and welcome to positive energy so nice thanks for joining us today tell us a little bit about your background how you got started i know that you are helping men and women who are ready to go to that next level in their business and really play bigger in the world so tell us a little bit about that awesome i'm actually being at one level to another level how do you help them if they're feeling sort of stuck and overwhelmed i know as a small business owner i feel that very often stock and overwhelmed and really not sure what to do next how do you help them know this is a whole new area in general people becoming entrepreneurs more and more every day so you're right they need help you know they need someone to kind of who's done it a little bit before of them and take them by the hand and kind of lead them about way do you have a sense of you know again doing business itself has really transformed and i know that especially for women opening up their own businesses you know sort of what's the what's the biggest challenge you see within that i think that the biggest challenge just across the board but yet not even remotely women is that that people come to opening a business because of two things one they're really good at something and two they are opting out of your multitrack right so i think oftentimes the place where both that's a piece where people have to get some education and there is definitely some skill involved but you don't know what you don't know so many people with very different backgrounds starting their business you're right they know what they love to do what they're good at but the business piece is missing it's a blinder that they have so that's where folks like you and other wonderful folks really come in you know most people don't come to their business right most people who are going to business school are g if you're going to do the whole thing would go to so let's talk about money so for those who are at that later stage and they do want to make big money you know and  back at the same time you know what do you find with that can everybody get past their their limiting mindset and police and struggles and relationship with money what have you seen in yourself personally as well as working with clients around that that ceiling that people reach that level that people get stuck out when it comes to earning money from their business back but if the power part of the course for which is no not  good at assessing that and knowing people well enough to recognize that maybe before you take them on as a as a client or or have there been times early on for you where you had to not give up on someone but you had to just kind of have that conversation where maybe you're just not cut out for that have you ever had to have a conversation with someone i have to all but you know to be perfectly honest it while often  yeah and so if we take the judgment out of it which we do this without judge and there's no judgment we're all different bro they're all cut it differently we're all wired differently we still have lots to contribute then hopefully you know there's no l you help people becoming a successful entrepreneur you say something that i like called the power of people proximity because you're a people person you're all about relationships so say a little bit about what i hear people say as we are the sum total of the five people we spend the most time with we entrain to them they become like us and we rise to where they are so give us some tips so we can make that work for us often so first of all  in terms of really illustrating it i'm wondering where we show up where you shop where i show up on someone else's belt that are in terms of race but the energy that we are and hold for them and around them and it really goes to speak to the fact that we exist in a collective you know we exist in a field together we all are overlapping and influencing one another and not isolated especially the people that we spend so much  time with so we want to be nonjudgmental ie again choosy and really picky about those especially when you're starting a business so we really can't underestimate the power of relationships as a force as a tool and that's why i know you say that's the foundation of any successful business has to be the quality of your relationships is equal to that so say a little bit more about that well i mean life is a leap relations i mean fundamental so so having relationships is a skill so then in other words it is something that someone can learn with time so what's the biggest how do you break that down the characteristics and strengths necessary to be a successful entrepreneur and it sounds like you've taken the time to develop them certainly within yourself you know so that you can share and  those for others so anything else you'd like to say about yourself as a coach and who inspired or continues to inspire you so that maybe we can also follow them terms of who you would mire and relate so i've been thinking about the question a lot because i the people that really inspire me are people that most people haven't actually so that they could focus on the odds of a few people maybe ten to twelve people they work with that as i and really dealt with them and their impact aided by that impact their clients rather than directly impacting thousands their impact and each of those people are acting and one hundred and exponential growth that way so some of the and so i think that you're one of those people as well certainly in wiring me and others in the world so tell people how they can that relationship that is what i all about so i encourage people to go to dana corey dot com and check you out can you leave
