Gratitude Focus: I am Grateful For John O’Leary.

Reflection/Why I’m Grateful:

 Today, I participated as a guest on John’s Live Inspired podcast. I have done a few of these now and anticipate more. But this podcast was the first time I wasn’t anxious in the days leading up to and in the discussion. I attribute some of the ease in nerves to the coaching I have been getting along the way—“just be you” in all corners.

With John, he started off by asking, “Is there anything that is off limits?” To which I said, “No.” He then said, “Okay, we are just two guys having coffee, let’s go.” And so we went—and an hour or more later, we were done.

I am grateful for him speaking into my life about my book, which he read, by the way—he remembered details without looking at any notes. Details that weren’t necessarily the “talking points” that come up about the book.

After the meeting, he encouraged me to take my message to a broader audience. He definitely gave me some things to think about. I am grateful we are now connected.
