Understanding and embracing relationships is huge for business growth and for enjoying your work. Here are a few key areas where relationships help me and where they can help you too. Client \u2013 customer relationships Hear 7 different ways you can create relationships with your clients. It\u2019s not just one thing, it\u2019s everything. Opportunities \u2013 We connect with people who meet us where we are today. Then they get to know our story. Find out how meeting new people has helped me grow my business and make great new friends. Support \u2013 Ever have a huge win that your corporate friends just didn\u2019t get? Having friends that are business peers can bring clarity and inspiration. I share what\u2019s worked for me and for my clients. I break down 5 specific things that support relationships can do for you. When things don\u2019t work \u2013 I\u2019m not perfect; no one is. It\u2019s good to know what your deal-breakers are. One (for me) is negative energy. I also share a few more because knowing what doesn\u2019t fit is just as important as embracing what does. When it\u2019s time to move on \u2013 Some people are only meant to be in our life for a specific time. That\u2019s okay. It\u2019s natural for us to connect in a meaningful way for a while and move on when it\u2019s time. It makes room for new people and new opportunities. I recently parted with a client. We both honor the friendship but agreed it was time for us to end our working relationship. If relationships don\u2019t come naturally to you, or you feel uncertain about how to grow relationships that support you, this podcast is for you. If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. African proverb What I\u2019m loving now: Essential oil blends. I\u2019m loving the Motivate Blend. What\u2019s your favorite?
