[Bonus Q&A] - How Do I Speak with Authority?

Ep #21 - Welcome to The Purpose Driven Entrepreneur Podcast with Matt Brauning, Episode #21.

*Quick Disclaimer: I've been under the weather this week and will return with a new studio recorded episode next week. The audio in this episode comes from a FB Live I recorded while driving. The audio is not perfect, but the content is still important and relevant.

In today's bonus episode, the theme is around one main question. This came from NLP Mastery student Carissa Espinoza who asked:

I am struggling to speak with authority. I feel like I don't have a voice (it doesn't have value). When it comes to business, every time I go to talk about something, I get tongue-tied and my mind tells me to stop talking. How should I approach this? What can I do to change this?

This was an excellent question and something that many people tend to relate with. For my answer and an in-depth discussion about authority and expert status, listen in.

► Change the way you think about organizing time

► Throw out your to-do list

► Work on outcomes and get things scheduled in

► Get more accomplished by doing less overall and more of the things that matter

[Bonus Session] - Time Management as an Entrepreneur

Ep #18 - Welcome to The Purpose Driven Entrepreneur Podcast with Matt Brauning, Episode #18.

This is a bonus episode which comes from one of my Monday Facebook Live Q&A session where Matt talks about batching time as an entrepreneur. The reality is that all areas of our lives can run into the others and some crazy coaches like it that way! In this episode, I will give you a sneak peek into how I️ maintain sanity when running a business, being a husband and father, leading a church, writing a book, taking care of my health, having fun, and whatever else is left!

If we don’t take control of our time, we cannot take control of our lives. This is all about how to “compartmentalize our lives in a positive way!

[Bonus Session] - Don't let Special Moments Become Normal and Routine

Ep #14 - Welcome to The Purpose Driven Entrepreneur Podcast with Matt Brauning, Episode #14.

This is a bonus episode which comes from a #mondayswithmatt Facebook Live Q&A session. In this week's episode, Matt discusses the idea of intentionally giving up something in order to increase its value and bring more enjoyment when it finally arrives. 

This episode was recorded on March 5th, 2018, on my son Val's 7th birthday. We had some special things for him and some he flipped out about, and others were just okay. It got me thinking... what was the difference? So in this episode, I discuss how to “Re-sensitize” yourself to joy and newness! Rather than living in a desensitived place where nothing is special anymore. Let me know if you relate to this story...
