👑 Look at us doing what we have done for the past years. 👑 Since we all officially don't know each other, it's perfect. 👑 You know how the next part goes. Don't tell me you didn't tell everyone else what happens when you do that. 😱 You didn't tell them. #inspiration #motivation #boss #awardwinner #queen #power #ceo #founder #businessowner #brilliance #elite #successfulwomen #buildyourbrand #buildyourempire #excel #excellence #beyourself #greatness #brandstandards #beingthebest #beingtheelite #brandidentity #womanofinfluence #womenwhoexcel #successmindset #shine #inspire #successsecrets #ireign #irule

🌟 Start Your Day with the Right Outfit, End It with Great Success! 🌟 Every morning presents a unique opportunity—a blank canvas. What you choose to wear is about presenting your best self to the world. An outfit chosen with thought and intention can impact how others perceive us and shift how we perceive ourselves. 👔 Why does this matter? Your outfit sets the tone for the day. It's about aligning how you feel inside with how you present yourself outside. A well-chosen ensemble boosts confidence, empowers decision-making, and enhances your ability to influence and lead. Far beyond aesthetics, this is about intentional living and strategic self-presentation. 🚀 For lawyers and tech leaders, your wardrobe choice could impact what decides the outcome of that critical negotiation or presentation. It can differentiate you as competent, confident, and with vision. So tomorrow, take a moment. Pick an outfit that reflects your ambitions and the image you wish to project. Watch how it impact the course of your day as people interact with you and in how you feel about yourself. ✨ Dress intentionally, live strategically. ✨ #Leadership #ExecutivePresence #PersonalBranding #ImageConsulting #ProfessionalGrowth

Congruency matters in a sea full of emptiness. Someone who lives with congruency carries themselves in direct accordance with their vision, dreams, values, mission, beliefs and goals. Will you commit to leading a congruent lifestyle? Will you carve out your own unique path paved by a deep understanding of you? Congruent people are brave because we live in a society which hasn’t taught us to show our feelings or as salespeople in how to place these up onto the business table. When your actions match your values, it gives your clients and future clients the confidence that you lead authentically and act with integrity. And isn't this what you want? This my friends creates sales sustainability. #sellingfromtheheart #salesprofessionals #sales #salesleaders #salesleadership #executives

Their light ≠ your loss. If you don't encourage your team to work on personal brand, you lose the ability for their success to pull your organization forward. Allowing them to expand their network will expand yours. The fear of them not needing you as a boss/company is self limiting, and creates a culture of placating superiors as opposed to directly growing the organization. #PersonalBrand #TeamSuccess #ProfessionalGrowth

Let’s talk #LinkedInswagger. Where the hell do you get THAT? I get asked daily. Who would I refer for LinkedIn. I really would never recc’d well, anyone. I met Jared at a networking event. He shared his piece and when he did my head exploded. Soooo talented! He had a sell that comoditized the best part of what he solved - bringing out the best in individuals business profiles through an algorithm. As a form of business development. Yet, something more emanated from him - and he got it out there enough to grab prospect attention. He was way more talented then I, than most, and I know talent. I knew CU was right for him. He mapped 100% to the research. 🎯 He didn’t want me figuring it out. Or any of the Jayniacs. He wanted to solve it. He just needed the education, tools, support, and community to do EXACTLY what’s in his post below 🤣🥳. He hopped into Clarity University and honestly, he gave so much value to the other participant’s. And, they did the same. #community #ClarityUniversityAlum Jared Gibson 🎯 is being featured in our launch campaign coming up. He’s a total fav of the #jaynics. His LinkedIn skills (and life skills for that matter) are rihhhhh-don-que-lus. I couldn’t stand waiting. And… The number one thing most #businessowners need the minute they complete #ClarityUniversity is an update LinkedIn profile and strategy. HIGHLY RECCOMMEND. At a minimum, follow Jared and the team Outworks. One after another justifies smart investment in marketing. And every post is loaded with linkedIn swagger, show don’t tell experiences and insight, unique to Jared and his Outwork-ers.

You don’t have to wear the aseptic boring look to rock the boardroom. Or to wear pants to build authority 😉 > The world needs YOU just the way you are. > Confidence and charisma are the REAL power ties. Here is what to say when someone criticises how your look, or what you do💡: 1 - “I understand it may not make sense to you, but it does for me. Can you please respect that?” 2 - "I’d love to debate further, just not today, and not with you” 3 - “ Whilst I respect your opinion, I'd appreciate if you kept it to yourself in future. Your comment was hurtful." If no one told you today :🔥 > Your ideas worth fighting for. > You’re beautiful. > You matter. Surround yourself with people who will cheer you on, not tear you down 🙌 P.S: What’s your power outfit? —— ♻️ Repost to unleash your success. 🔔 Follow me to not miss my next story. ❤️ Give me some love if you enjoyed it. #LeadershipRevolution #UnconventionalPower #LeadershipUnleashed

Over the previous two posts, in discussing “Excellence” — the first “Element of Value” within The Law of Value — we saw that it is two-fold: the competence you bring to the table as well as how you make people feel about themselves.   The second “Element of Value” however, is what makes it stick…and that is “Consistency.”   To communicate excellence day after day, week after week, month-after-month, and year after year inspires trust in a way that practically nothing else possibly can.   As human beings we desire to be consistent ourselves. However, we *demand* it in those we deal with.   To be inconsistent then, is to risk all the goodwill built through excellence falling apart like a stale cookie crashing on the floor.   On the other hand, hold your consistency as a sacred value and the level of trust you inspire in others will be practically unbreakable.   Yes, when you combine excellence and consistency you communicate extraordinary value!   Question to consider: Do you feel that consistency is a strength of yours and of everyone on your team? On a scale of 1-10 how would you rate yourself and your organization overall in terms of consistency? #BobBurg #Sales #Leadership #LinkedIn #TheGoGiver

The misconception about headshots is that they just need to look good. Think deeper 💡 📍 What does your headshot convey? 📍 Who is your audience and how do you appear to them? 📍 Does your image serve your purpose? Maybe you recently made a significant career advancement and need your photo to reflect greater confidence and leadership. Or maybe you’ve been invited as a visionary speaker for an event, and your image should inspire and leave a lasting impression. Authenticity reigns supreme. We all have a story to tell, and I often remind my clients that no story is too big or too small to capture. Stand behind your story and your personality unapologetically, and allow us to capture that beautiful side of you and your story. #tellyourstory #nostiffsmiles #authenticity #personalbranding #professionalheadshots #dfw

At the heart of every successful executive growth story is a strong foundation of trust and authenticity. We don't just coach; we foster relationships that transcend the confines of a traditional partnership. Imagine engaging in conversations that not only challenge you but also ignite a fire within, propelling you towards both personal and professional zeniths. These aren't just dialogues; they're transformative experiences that offer insights, clarity, and often, new paths you hadn't considered. But while our conversations are profound, our approach is straightforward. I've always believed that the road to growth, no matter how complex, should be lined with moments of joy, laughter, and simplicity. Complexity can be enriching, but simplicity often leads to profound realisations. We ensure our clients experience both. If you're seeking a partnership that delves beyond the surface, prioritises genuine connection, and intertwines growth with fun, then Starbuck Associates might be the perfect fit for you. Why not explore this potential alliance? Send me a direct message here on LinkedIn, and we can schedule a conversation to see how we might collaborate.

Being more visible & seen in your leadership & love both require the same part of you that you've been suppressing to come forward. You're afraid to slow down because you fear the bottom will fall out. So instead, you've ducked your head low and doubled down on doing more. You're frustrated because you keep working harder and it's still not giving you what you actually want. To enjoy the success you've already created. To attract clients and paid opportunities while enjoying your life with your partner. To feel in love with your partner again. To feel loved by your partner in the way you want to be loved. The way you've been showing up, is why you have the experience you do. If you're ready to experience deeper intimacy, more impact and income and to feel good about your success, book a Reclaim Your Voice 30 minute Consultation Call with me. Details of what the call entails are in the link in the comments section. 💜 #feminineleadership #personalgrowth #femininevisibility #relationships
