THE DON’T PANIC WARRIOR
There’s one thing I’ve always been intrigued to study, and I’m sure you have too: body language. The idea that people may be saying more than they realize; that you’re uncovering their secrets. It’s a really exciting thing. There are a lot of myths, though, in the study of body language. The first is that people can’t lie with their bodies. Of course we can, and of course we all do. All it takes is being aware of what your body is doing, and know what other people may be reading.
WARRIOR of Reciprocity
Does it seem crazy to have a conversation with an addiction expert on a podcast about entrepreneurship? Let me ask you this. Have you ever felt like your reality was different than what people thought about you? Have you ever felt like an “imposter?” The truth of entrepreneurship is that the image of success and happiness we project isn’t always what’s going on behind the scenes. Not that different than what an addict and the people him or her are managing. Very compelling conversation.

THE WHO CAN HELP ME WARRIOR
If you’re like me, chances are you don’t like the idea of networking. It might feel a little sleazy, and conjure up images of a guy at an event passing out business cards to everyone he meets. In reality, that isn’t networking – or at least it shouldn’t be. You’re already in a huge network. You’re probably six degrees away from meeting everyone you already need and want to meet.
WARRIOR of Reciprocity
The inequality between men and women in the corporate world is well documented and often a topic of conversation. Rightfully so. But why is there a disparity between men and women in entrepreneurship? An area of life that both men and women should be in charge of their destiny. Did you know women often charge less than men for the same services? Cynthia and I tackle this very touchy subject, deciding that talking about it is the only way to bring about change.

WARRIOR OF GRATITUDE
Most entrepreneurs I know enter a business looking to do what someone else does, only do it better. In the end, how much better can you do? 10%? 15%? You don’t want to do what everyone else does, you’ll just get lost in the crowd. Instead, do the exact opposite.
WARRIOR of Reciprocity
Do you consider yourself to be a highly-sensitive person? I would think most Creative Warriors are highly-sensitive people. I know I certainly am. At least in that, I am easily moved to being emotional and I am highly-sensitive of people around me. This is an eye-opening conversation with Debbie Lynn. In the end, I think you’ll find this is not something to be changed but rather leveraged. But being highly-sensitive can have its challenges and we discuss how you can live more peacefully.

WARRIOR OF COMPASSION
Do you have moments of feeling unfulfilled in your life? Perhaps you’re chasing the wrong purpose. To really know what you should be doing in life, you need to discover your WHAT. What is it you’re good at? What is it you are meant to do? So many people focus on the why, and it is important to know why you do what you do. But without the WHAT, you’re never going to be able to master your talents.
WARRIOR OF SELF LOVE
Something that has always fascinated me is brand storytelling. Many large businesses are straight to the point and matter of fact about their products and services. It makes them feel cold and like a machine, just looking to get in and get out with my money as quickly as possible. On the opposite end, small businesses can be so full of passion and love for every little detail about their business they can overwhelm the customer.
WARRIOR of Reciprocity
Usually when we look at happiness, we wonder why we are not happy or as happy as we’d like to be. Well, what about the opposite? What about wondering why you feel happy and how there are plenty of reasons why you shouldn’t be happy? That got me curious as to what the root of happiness is. What is it that prevails, that lies beneath the challenges and circumstances, that enables us to still feel happy? I’ve come up with things. For now anyway. I suspect this will be a constant exploration.
