NO B.S. Let’s agree not to waste any time. Let’s be honest, and choose to accept responsibility for the hard work required to change our lives and the world around us.
TRUTH-TELLER I’m nice and I’ll tell you the truth. You might not like what I have to say, but I promise you now that the reason I’ll say it is because it’ll help you and your organization succeed.
DOUBT SLAYER Together, we’ll work through the tough stuff that comes up in your company, between your colleagues, or between your ears. It’s not always easy, but it’s always worth it.
BUT-KICKER I’ll help you bust your but. Everything that follows that word (but) negates what came before it. When things are challenging or you’re at the top of your game, that’s when your “but” needs to kicked to reach a place where you’re truly at peace and in touch with youself, where nothing anyone says or does bothers you and no negativity or drama can touch you. You’ll be Unf♥<kwithable®.
