In this episode we discuss:
- her thoughts on leadership: “In addition to kindness and care, which should be basic traits, respect is the most crucial aspect of leadership to bring to the table. Respect for yourself, for others, and for the responsibility that is given to you.”
- how she recognized the importance of self-care first because “the moment you take care of yourself, people believe you have the ability to take care of them too.”
- what it means to be a second role leader and why it is valuable.
- how she knew she wanted to move to the United States when she was 5 years old and the incredible story of how that happened for her.
- the greatest gift she has ever received, in the form of words from a leader.
- the unique way she starts her speeches and the science behind it.

Relationship-Based Business Strategist
Are you ready to create a Relationship-Based Business Plan that will help you achieve greater impact (and income)?
- You want to have a greater impact and increased income. The problem is that there are so many options for how to build your business that you can feel stuck, overwhelmed, and like you're running out of time.
- The reason options are overwhelming is that you're looking at them as a series of disconnected steps when — to make the most of your time — you need a strategy that connects only the most important and highest impact ones.
- Why? Because you know it's true that if you try to do everything, you will accomplish nothing. This means, to achieve your goal, you have to invest in a strategy to put time on your side.
- How? This program will help you find the clarity to determine what is the right next step for your business. A book? A podcast? An online course? Masterminds? Speaking on bigger stages?
- Together we will design a 12-month Relationship-Based Business Plan that will allow you to stack your successes to create momentum and leverage your limited time.
- Read about this program and then schedule a complimentary 60-minute session to see if it's a good fit. www.robbiesamuels.com/more
