Show Notes

  • How many people do you know who coach entrepreneurs making seven- and eight-figures? Ali coaches scores of them and assists with the turbulent times that show no sign of ending. She points out that something can supplant the internet tomorrow. And she’s probably going to “close down” her Facebook presence.
  • Learn about the biggest problem for women attempting to network with current business communities. There are significant changes that have to be made as people move to seven- and eight-figure entrepreneurial businesses.
  • You need to be a “category of one” more than ever, because we’re being submerged in noise and everyone is a “coach.” But now it’s time for the real coaches to exert themselves. The “seven step process” doesn’t cut it any more.
  • I’ve long talked about the “success trap” and Ali matches her “excellent burnout” against it. How to anticipate it, or realize you’re in it, and how to escape it. No one can “coast uphill.”
  • I’ve long thought that women make better natural consultants because they are more empathic, allow themselves to be vulnerable, and have less ego investment than men, less to “unlearn.” But men are the more assertive marketers. Does Ali agree?
  • We are two contrarians talking. What’s coming in the next year or so, and how do we all have to adapt? It may be more radical than you’re thinking. No one should want to “return to normal.”
