How Tracy Works and Thinks
Wake up time: Some days it’s 6:30am, others it’s 7:30am – usually aiming to be at the computer by 8:45-9:15am, but sometimes it doesn’t work that way.
Regains focus by: Usually a walk, but sometimes it takes a hard reset of blocking almost everything off of the calendar that isn’t the central goal.
90-day goal: Identify a dozen or so businesses that are currently or could potentially be benefitting from podcasts and help them with a problem in their process.
Inspirational Quotes
“My job is helping people know, share, and live their stories.”
“Sometimes, what we believe, or what we think we believe, gets in the way of what we expect of ourselves in terms of work.”
“We can’t know our story until we fully explore the idea that what we think of ourselves isn’t truly who we are.”
Coaching Advice
To start telling your real, authentic story, Tracy suggests the following actions.
1) Ask a whole lot of questions – of yourself and others – to ascertain where your expertise may lie.
2) Think specifically about the life you want to live and find a way to own who you really are.
