THE PLAY OF THE WEEK
Transitioning to a growth mindset can be transformative, both personally and professionally.
Early in my coaching career, I often encountered clients who felt stuck, believing their abilities were fixed.
My own journey was no different.
When the pandemic hit and I lost 85% of my business, I faced a crucial choice: to dwell on my losses or pivot towards new opportunities.
Inspired by my friend’s advice to focus on serving clients I loved, I reimagined my networking events as “Socials with Shawn” on Zoom. This shift allowed me to connect with clients across the globe, creating a space for collaboration and learning that I had never envisioned before.
It was a leap into the unknown, but it paid off. What began as an experiment turned into a vibrant community, expanding not just my horizons but also those of my clients.
