DevNations: Mind Devs Podcast

Hi DevNations, today we are joined by author, paralegal, and entrepreneur Elizabeth Miner. She teaches us the emotional ingredients every human can utilize to get more done and feel more fulfilled with the entrepreneur advantage.

Elizabeth is hell-bent on challenging the notion you are stuck where you are. She has spent her lifetime turning the obstacles and the experiences of her life into an established process to prove that you too can have the life of your dreams.

From taking a year of her retirement in her 30’s when she moved abroad to an island, to leaving the standard 9-5 at one of the most iconic companies in the world for a life on tropical beaches running her own business. Elizabeth is an unconventional success and the force you’ve been looking for to help you accomplish your goals and set you on the path to your dream life.

Elizabeth spent 20+ years in the legal field working in specialties from Supreme Court litigation to multinational corporations. She has accrued an extensive education studying the greats from Tony Robbins (yes, she is a Firewalker), Steven Covey, Jim Rohn, Les Brown, Wayne Dyer, Darren Hardy and so many other masters in personal development and productivity. Combining her legal background, personal studies and acquired wisdom by taking unconventional paths to arrive at her desired destination, she founded Thrive This Day™. She now helps others to act on their inspired ideas and take steps towards making their dreams a reality.

As an Executive Coach, Speaker, Author & Goal Achievement Specialist, Elizabeth works with both groups and individuals around the world creating pathways and developing actionable plans to make anything her clients dream a reality.

In this episode of the DevNations: MindDevs Podcast we speak with brand strategy master Laura Bull on how to build our brand in order to be sustainable and impactful for the world. She shares how to grow our personal brands through a blend of the brand matrix, stories, psychology, and values. This episode is great to learn what the brand matrix is, the origination of a brand, the 5 P's of Successful Influencers and more!
