Getting Out of the ‘How’ Business with Tricia Brouk
Manage episode 351389130 series 3379397
What happens when you get caught up in the ‘how’ of your dreams? You may impose hidden limitations on the ‘what’ and the ‘when’. Tricia Brouk has mastered the art of (co-)creating her own destiny. She is the founder of The Big Talk Academy, where she helps people transform their stories into an industry-leading media presence. She’s also the author of The Influential Voice: Saying What You Mean for Lasting Legacy — and the very first guest to appear on the Shift Out Loud podcast.
In this conversation, we unpack one of the most resonant and thought-provoking quotes from her first appearance on the show, explore the differences between dreamstorming and brainstorming, and discuss what happens when you stop trying to control outcomes and remain open to the possibilities.
Listen now to discover:
- What it means to be in the ‘how’ business — and how to stop creating roadblocks on your own path
- How we co-create our outcomes and where to look for signs of divine connection
- Real-life examples of the magic that happens when you get out of the ‘how’ business
Guest bio: Tricia Brouk helps high-performing professionals transform into industry thought leaders through the power of authentic storytelling.
