#22 GameChanging Guests - Kevin Palmieri (US) - Changing the Game of self-development

"I had it all and yet I was extremely unhappy"   

In this episode I'm talking to GameChanger Kevin Palmieri, CFO, founder and co-host of Next Level Podcast Solutions.   
Kevin talks about something a lot of us entrepreneurs recognise: functionally everything was fine, but he was also aware of the fact that he knew he wanted to live differently.   

"I was more fulfilled when I was broke"
As many personal entrepreneurial stories, Kevin's story involves a tremendous pain as well. Growing up without a father, his live was marked already from a young age.  Although he had many successes personally and professionally, one day, he found himself having suicidal thoughts. Eventually he turned those around in a powerful Next Level University and set up a foundation that helps children without fathers.   

Today he helps many people to create a better and happier life, to become a better person and partner and all with three key elements: consistency, confidence and overcoming limiting beliefs.

#21 GameChanging Guests: John Follis - Digital Marketing GameChanger on Madison Avenue (NYC) in 70's/80's

#21 GameChanging Guests: John Follis - Digital Marketing GameChanger on Madison Avenue (NYC) in 70's/80's

In this episode I’m interviewing another amazing GameChanger: John Follis. It's so great to talk to a fellow Marketeer about the craft (because that's what's Marketing is!), his experiences in NYC and his current contribution to the world.

Anyone who’s worked on Mad Ave a week has a story. John spent 3 decades there — first, getting fired. Then, getting famous. Selected one of Mad Ave’s “12 Best” by The NY Ad Club John has been an ADWEEK columnist and featured speaker at venues including The World Business Academy and Yale. His agency, Follis DeVito Verdi, was one of New York’s most awarded.

John also has the unique honor of being acknowledged at both The White House and The UN for his effective public service work. He’s also been fired 4 times and been told he has no talent. John: "I began on Madison Ave with the top agencies in the US on accounts like VW, Pizza Hut and Coke. That led to the co-founding of my own agency, Follis&Verdi, which became one of the most awarded creative agencies in the country. As the media and marketing landscape changed, so did my business.

In '04, I created one of the first online consultancies, "Follis Marketing Therapy", which enabled business owners across the US to work with me directly on their marketing and creative issues.

In '06, I hosted and produced the first marketing podcast; "The Marketing Show with John Follis" which continued for 7 years.

In 2013, to meet the demand for the exploding digital video market, we added "Big Idea Video" which offers businesses a variety of high-impact web video content including animated "explainer videos". Currently, that work is featured on Vimeo, LinkedIn, and 4 YouTube Channels."

Additional career highlights include:
• Being selected one of "New York's 12 Best" by The New York Ad Club.
• Being honored at The White House for a national public service campaign that I spearheaded.
• Receiving the first ever United Nations Public Service Award at The UN.
• Being invited to speak at venues including The World Business Academy and Yale University.
• Winning over 3 dozen major ad awards including Clio Awards.
• Having my successful ad work featured in a Prentice-Hall marketing textbook.
• Having my successful ad work taught as a case study in The Harvard Business Review.
• Being invited to write for ADWEEK and Small Biz Trends.
• Being published in a pop-culture anthology with internationally known writers including Stephen King.
• Writing, directing and producing a film that won a Hollywood International Documentary Film award. . . .

Listen to his inspiring story and valuable tips and tricks to challenge yourself to look at Marketing differently. Every single day we have a choice on how we show up in our lives and our business.

How do you make the right choices and how can you create a sustainable approach and strategies for yourself?

#20 Waarom het (er)kennen van je identiteit zo cruciaal is om succesvol te ondernemen - Interview door Tineke Zwart

#20 Waarom het (er)kennen van je identiteit zo cruciaal is om succesvol te ondernemen - Interview door Tineke Zwart

In deze aflevering word ik geïnterviewd door Tineke Zwart over Identiteit als basis voor een succesvol leven en bedrijf.  
Tineke was het afgelopen jaar niet alleen mijn Business coach, maar ik heb ook voor haar een hele transformerende IdentiteitsReis voor High-End Ondernemers ontworpen waardoor ze haar hele bedrijf heeft omgegooid. Hoe?   

Je hoort het in de podcast!  

"In deze podcast spreek ik één van mijn 1-op-1 klanten Myrte Scheffer.   

Myrte heeft, na een opeenstapeling van verdrietige verliezen, op een bepaald moment in 2020 besloten om haar leven en bedrijf volledig om te gooien. Maar hoe wist ze nog niet. Het werd uiteindelijk een reis naar London waar ze getraind werd als Public Speaker, vervolgens een “rouwreis” door heel Spanje, ze reed haar motor naar Barcelona, ze werkte voor een organisatie die gratis onderwijs verzorgd voor kinderen in een lokale community in Tanzania, ze deed haar eerste sprekersklus op international vrouwendag in Parijs dit jaar en ze reisde afgelopen zomer 2 maanden naar Bali waar ze in samenwerking met een hoge priester een spirituele reis heeft gemaakt.  Dit noemt ze haar Identiteitsreis en die heeft ervoor gezorgd dat ze nu echt leeft en onderneemt vanuit haar diepste kern met haar bedrijf GameChangers United.  Onlangs heb ik zelf ook een 4 uur durende identiteitsreis bij Myrte geboekt en sindsdien stroomt het veel meer in mijn bedrijf. In deze podcast spreken we elkaar over onze reis en waarom het stuk identiteit zo cruciaal is."

We delen ook een nieuwtje: op 23 januari vindt de eerste editie van "Glitter. Glamour. GameChangers" plaats.
Een uniek online MasterMind dag waarin ik je samen met Tineke en nog een andere top notch spreekster (Chloë Bisson) meeneem in hoe jij identiteit kunt inzetten en transformeren tot je grootste professionele kracht.
>> Jij kunt nu één van de 50 spots bemachtigen: https://myrtescheffer.com/glitter-glamour-gamechangers/

Zien we je op 23 januari 2023?

#19 GameChanging Guests: Michael Thornhill (Peru) - Trauma-informed healer/co-founder Casa Galactica - a sacred place in Peru to heal and evolve with Ayahuasca

#19 GameChanging Guests: Michael Thornhill (Peru) - Trauma-informed healer/co-founder Casa Galactica - a sacred place in Peru to heal and evolve with Ayahuasca

In this episode we're taking you all the way to a sacred valley in Peru where Michael and his wife Jamie, run a GameChanging Healing & Evolution Center with Ayahuasca in a Trauma-informed Environment.   

Our interview became an interesting mix of deep diving into the spiritual terms and techniques to make "trauma-informed and multi-dimensional healing" more accessible. It can sounds "far from your bed" but it should be very close since it's all about getting back to yourself, heal the pains and trauma's that you still hold inside and therefor became your main driven mechanism.   

Spirituality is often seen as something outside of you, but it's actually the opposite and should be getting more and more implemented in the world. You don't have to meditate the whole day to tap into yourself as the endless source for wisdom and guidance. I use it every day when I go for my daily walk and think consciously about my day ahead for example.   

By healing, you become better. As a person, as a friend/husband and as an entrepreneur.   

We also talk about being a "conscious entrepreneurship", an example of social entrepreneurship what this podcast is all about: what path did Michael walk before he could start and the successful and impactful "Casa Galactica", how do they stay true to themselves in their market approach, sales and social media (which they narrowed down to only podcasts!) and most importantly: how do you keep standing firm behind these aligning decisions?  How do you build a business around your spiritual purpose?  

As in all interviews, we share both our experiences in order to inspire our audience.   

Lastly, we talk about their work in the sacred valley of Peru; what is the Game they want to change, how do you do that and where can you find more information?   

Every guest on the GameChangers United Podcast fills in a selection form to identify if it’s the right fit for the show. Take a look at what Michael wrote; a true GameChanger by nature!  

Background Story "I've ran successful business in renewable energy recruitment, found ayahuasca to overcome addictions, traveled the world, moved to Peru, healed lots of trauma including repressed sexual abuse, got an apprenticeship in the jungle, facilitated ayahuasca retreats, studied in the amazon rainforest, met my wife, created Casa Galactica, are changing the way that people heal with plant medicines in a trauma-informed way. My life is dedicated to helping people heal and evolve whilst being empowered throughout the process."  

The Game you want to Change "We are creating safe, trauma-informed spaces for people to heal and evolve with plant medicines. Our ideal clients are dedicated inner-truth seekers who want to heal trauma and evolve spiritually."  Listen and watch our interview and get inspired!

#18 (IN DUTCH) Speciaal interview met mijn opa (90) - een echte GameChanger net na de oorlog in de klompenfabriek, waar zijn innovaties voor revoluties zorgden!

#18 (IN DUTCH) Speciaal interview met mijn opa (90) - een echte GameChanger net na de oorlog in de klompenfabriek, waar zijn innovaties voor revoluties zorgden!

In deze bijzondere aflevering interview ik mijn opa van 90, een echte GameChanger die net na de Tweede Wereldoorlog voor veel innovaties heeft gezorgd bij, wat uitgroeide tot, de grootste klompenfabriek van Nederland, het huidige Gevavi.   

Zet de NL ondertiteling aan voor extra ondersteuning mocht het dialect teveel worden ;)  

Met zijn ideeën heeft hij veel nieuwe dingen bedacht zoals de stempel voor de figuren op de klompen zoals we ze nu kennen, het ontwikkelen van een methode om beschadigde klompen toch te kunnen verkopen en het samenvoegen van twee afval materialen waardoor een nieuwe lijm ontstond (circulair!).   Zo op het oog lijken deze zaken nu heel vanzelfsprekend, maar in die tijd, midden jaren 50, zorgden deze innovaties voor een revolutie in de Nederlandse klompenindustrie en tot op de dag van vandaag worden ze gebruikt in de processen en productie.

Door zijn werk en ideeën, werden niet alleen processen versneld, maar er werden ook volledige werkzaamheden geautomatiseerd. Hierdoor werd enorm bezuinigd op materiaal- en personele kosten, werd de verkoop en productie verhoogd en hierdoor dus significant meer omzet gedraaid in een booming markt: heel Nederland liep op dat moment op klompen.   

Zijn verhaal wilde ik altijd al een keer vastleggen. Het is zo inspirerend om te horen hoe hij dat vroeger heeft gedaan en ervaren en ook pijnlijk omdat hij nooit echt de erkenning heeft gekregen voor zijn werk. Dat ligt ook deels aan hemzelf en hier heeft hij tot op de dag van vandaag nog wel eens moeite mee: was hij maar meer voor zichzelf opgekomen. Had hij maar het lef gehad om écht voor zichzelf te beginnen. Maar dat kon niet in die jaren en vooral niet met 4 jonge kinderen.   

We spreken kort over zijn leven in de oorlog (en hier gaan we nog een keer een aparte aflevering voor opnemen), zijn gezin van herkomst en natuurlijk over zijn werk in de klompenfabriek. Hij heeft nooit de kans gekregen op onderwijs, want zijn 4 volledig dove broers/zusjes moesten een vak leren en hierdoor was er voor de andere 10(!) kinderen geen geld voor scholing.   

Toch heeft een echte GameChanger zijn talent niet op school geleerd, het zit in je.  

En het gaat er ook nooit meer uit. "Als ik nu in de schuur kom, heb ik nog zoveel ideeën en dan denk ik: zal ik toch nog een keer voor mezelf beginnen..."   

Deze man.   

Voor mij de grondlegger van GameChangers United.

#17 GameChanging Guests: Loïs Hollis - Changing the Game of Shame Guilt after her Near Dead Experience at 55, all due to an extremely abusive childhood

#17 GameChanging Guests: Loïs Hollis - Changing the Game of Shame Guilt after her Near Dead Experience at 55, all due to an extremely abusive childhood

In this episode I'm interviewing the amazing Loïs Hollis (78!) who is determined to teach us about the Shame Guilt energy and how to get rid of it. Every person fills in a selection form upfront to identify if we are the right fit to do this interview.

Her first sentence was so powerful:  "I was dying at 55 and now rollerblading with my grandson at 78."   

Her life story begins 78 years ago in the States where she experienced a childhood of excessive abuse. At the age of 55 she almost died due to the wide range of consequences because of this abuse.

"My childhood was extremely abusive. I endured head traumas, broken ribs, skull, jaws, and neck that resulted in a Near Death Experience. My life was continued but I had the residue of emotional and physical abuse, 30 years of migraine headache, scoliosis, leaky heart valve, dyslexia and irlen syndrome to name a few."   

She survived the NDE at 55, married the one doctor who managed to give her back her life (who wouldn't!) and today she is on a mission to change the game for many people who are stuck in a prison of Shame and Guilt.  

"My legacy is to be the one who exposed the destructive shame guilt influence deliberately placed upon humanity. Individuals can now be naturally empowered because no one is educated or controlled to be a victim."    

Loïs explains what the Shame Guilt energy does, how it is present in even the smallest thoughts we have during the day, why it's also then very destructive for us and most importantly: how to get rid of it.  

During this interview I'm sharing one of my biggest trauma's that I had suppressed for 23 years - without consciously knowing I did. But I always felt this Shame Guilt energy around, however, I didn't know it was this energy. We can carry this with us for so many years and it's suppressing a to of the power that we posses.  

Today Loïs is helping people all over the world as a Shame Guilt Educator, counsellor and filmmaker. Listen or watch this GameChanging interview with this extraordinary woman and stay tuned for a follow up in the GameChangers United Community.

#14 GameChanging Guests: Leni Cavazos (Mexico) - an high achieving organizer, here to Change the Game in the retreat industry!

#14 GameChanging Guests: Leni Cavazos (Mexico) - an high achieving organizer, here to Change the Game in the retreat industry!

In this episode I’m interviewing Leni, a vivid woman with a clear vision: changing the game in the retreat industry. Her story and her desire for high quality are the reason why she is where she is today. And if you can organise something amazing for Joe Dispenza, you know what you bring to the table.

Every guest on the show fills in a selection form to identify if it’s the right fit for the show. Take a look at what Leni wrote; a true GameChanger!

Background Story

My name is Leni Cavazos, I am a planner and curator. From Mexico to the world, my prime specialty is producing hybrid events, private retreats, niche masterclasses, educational conferences, and immersive experiences from head to toe.

Where did it all begin? Actually at the altar! With 18+ years of experience in event creation, planning, and execution, it all started with hosting weddings back in the day. Then I was offered a surprising career opportunity in Dubai with Marriott's global office, where I was recruited to roll out Marketing campaigns & hospitality conferences across the Middle East and Africa.

After six splendid years in sunny Dubai, I realized that something was missing. I tenaciously sought out the next step along my spiritual path that could also be holistically connected with my business side. Then before I knew it, The Retreat Planner was born and became an agency focused on designing, developing, and executing events within the spiritual realm.

The Game already Changed or wants to Change
I am changing the way people plan their retreats, bringing their full purpose into the planning, from the water they choose to the location where they will host it. I am bringing Intentionality into their lives. My ideal clients are yoga teachers, meditation teachers, life coaches, transformational coaches, healers, or spiritual guides, or if they want to become a professional retreat planner looking to learn how to master, create and execute a retreat.

#13 GameChanging Guests: Ida Rsi Wisesanatha - A Spiritual High Priest GameChanger on Bali who is changing the Game of Life by creating an international mission of Life Management Coaches

And I was on Bali with him for 2 months, can you imagine! Ida Rsi is a high priest on Bali. Actually, only for 5 year officially. Although his journey started long before this (he was 20 when he started, he is 60 now). But before embodying this very specific lifestyle, he was the first Director of Sales for Hilton in Bali-Indonesia. His story is so inspiring for everyone who feels like they have a strong calling in life. We all try to live up to that purpose. He embodied it in a way that is really next level. He and his family turned their lives around 5 years ago and started living the life of high priests on Bali.

We talk about his story (of course) as well as the reason WHY he is so determined to do this. As we speak, he recently started building an international community of Life Management Coaches, he is about to publish his first book (Total Happiness Inside), he is the initiator of Eco for Peace Movement on Bali and... he is my spiritual guide as well as a collaboration partner for the Soul Business School we are about to launch.

How we ended up meeting each other and working together? Listen to this episode full of Balinese wisdom and Dutch curiosity.

#12 GameChanging Guests: Interview with Noah Healy (US) - a Mathematic GameChanger who is changing the market game by inventing better economic systems

#12 GameChanging Guests: Interview with Noah Healy (US) - a Mathematic GameChanger who is changing the market game by inventing better economic systems

Noah is a born (and based in the US) mathematic who invented a method to break through existing financial structures and narrowing beliefs in the market place from that perspective. Totally out of my comfort zone and that’s why I liked these interviews so much! We talk about the history of financial systems in the world, the impact of that and his method to disrupt and change the game in this industry. And trust me, you will understand it even without a financial background!

Noah refers to himself as a “recreational mathematician,” part of a tradition of thinkers going back centuries interested in thinking about mathematical questions. He studied a wide variety of subjects at the University of Virginia, focusing on engineering and economics, but always anchored by an interest in math. He became interested in applying his curiosity to the problems inherent in current economic markets and proposes that what we need now is a change in the algorithm that forms the basis for our current market economy.

Noah is one of those financial people with a talent to talk and explain. I know, very rare right!

#7 Myrte's Metaphors - Football Stadium: Why occasionally sitting on the stands of your own business, can change your game completely!

Stop going around the playfield in the same circles without reaching your goal!
There is a reason why scouts always sit on the stands while watching new talents: they have a better view of the WHOLE playground/game.
Do the same for your business ones in a while, it will bring you overview, direction and results immediately. Guaranteed!

Create instant breakthroughs in your social business
We all experience(d) times in our social entrepreneurship where we feel overwhelmed or stuck in a certain pattern. Whether this is in regards to your business concepts, your strategies, collaborations, your team if you have one and even in your own beliefs about yourself as the leader of this mission. Just know one thing: this as well, is part of the process of growing your brand and mission. And secondly: there are tools and people to help you when this happens.

In this short (and first!) Myrte's Metaphor I will share a simple tool with you: I help you to take a seat at the stands of your business. Listen and apply this as many times as needed, it's a very simple and imaginary tool to instantly get more overview and clarity. For yourself ánd for your team.

Take it up a notch

When you really want to deep dive into this topic, I'm more than happy to help you! You can book a FREE STRATEGY SESSION to start with or perhaps you are ready for a Quick Win Session:
https://myrtescheffer.com/quick-win-session/

Either way, having a coach next to you, is undoubtedly better than to keep dribbling on your own and never reaching that goal.

Let's go! 

About Myrte's Metaphors
These short episodes are meant to instantly help you create more insight, enriching your perspective and to open your mind for a new way of thinking. You can apply the metaphors wherever you need them in your life and business right now. Stop circling around in your own thoughts and start seeing the problem/the world/your life /your business/your mission with different eyes and start breaking through! These metaphors are being used in many 1:1 coaching trajectories, from small entrepreneurs to municipalities to directors on board level of national and global organisations. They are applicable for everyone, on every level and in every situation. And it's fun!

#6 How saying NO will clarify ánd elevate your life and business - make it happen!

#6 How saying NO will clarify ánd elevate your life and business - make it happen!

Stop wasting time, money and energy. You knów what is not serving you anymore. No matter if you are a starting GameChanger or an already established Impact Maker or somewhere in the middle - there are things right now that hold you back from your next-best-level. And sometimes it's easier to identify what you DON'T want (anymore) to get more clarity of WHAT AND HOW YOU DÓ WANT IT. 

On every level, in every industry, man and women; every level has it's own level. What if I tell you that this "little" word will change the game in your life and business as well? Wouldn't it be a missed chance if you didn't try? In this episode I'll share a bit more background of how the brain interpreters NO and why that can be the reason it's holding you back today. Right now saying no might feel like you are missing out on something. Or maybe you feel fear of letting go. 

Whatever it is, you know best what's keeping you in the same place right now - personally and professionally. I'll also share with you my own 5 biggest NO's that redirected my life and business completely. The last NO is a recent one and the one that I thought would be very difficult and turned out to be very simple. You just need to do it. Say NO to the things that are NOT a steppingstone to your bigger goal (anymore) and start unfolding the true business and impact that you know you shóuld make. 

Get inspired and empowered and start applying the NO from today. Make it happen. Period.

#3 The 6 key pillars for a successful social business

#3 The 6 key pillars for a successful social business

Many entrepreneurs start to build a villa based on the fundaments of a small house. I believe this is not sustainable. Not for yourself, for your products/services, for your marketing and sales ánd for your resources and results.

Successful social entrepreneurs acknowledge the importance of a solid fundament for their business. A well-thought-through identity, mission and market approach.

In this episode I’ll give you an overview of the 6 key pillars that I identified as fundamental needs for a successful social business. Without sacrificing yourself...

A solid business structure will give you identity, direction and results.

If that’s what you’re looking for: start listening to this episode!

Good to know: this episode is an overview to help you see the bigger picture. Per pillar you’ll also find a deep dive episode to help and inspire you even more!

#2 The three different types of GameChangers

#2 The three different types of GameChangers

The 5% of the population who ís different, thinks different, talks differently, feels different and acts different: those are the GameChangers. 

And even within this select group, there are 3 types that I would like to go through with you. Each type has a different motivation to make a difference; for some it is in their nature, for others it is based on skills and for others it is caused by an event. 

It helps to know which group you are in, so you can better anticipate who and what you need to take your mission to the next level.

#1 From Tesla to Tanzania - my GameChanger episode

#1 From Tesla to Tanzania - my GameChanger episode

Many entrepreneurs started their business out of the drive to be free. To create impact, to be successful in helping others and to live and do business in a way that suits them. 

Many entrepreneurs lose sight of this after a while. They go about their daily business, rolling from assignment to assignment or working their butts off to do the best they can for everyone. 

Until that one moment. That one event. That one loss. The thing that turns your whole world upside down and completely shakes the (perhaps already shaky) foundations of your life and business. 

In my case, I lost my disabled sister in November 2017. After the grief, I was soon overwhelmed by a huge sense of relief. But this shook me up so much, because 'that's not the way it should be, is it?'. An intensive search began. First unconsciously, with all the chaos and confusion that goes with it, and then more and more consciously, because: I found out that her existence had had an enormous impact on my identity development so far. 

Fostering a beautiful teenage girl only one year after my sister passed away, showed me some very valuable insights. When I had a missed miscarriage of twins in April 2020, I experienced my "enough is enough" moment. I had completely lost myself and had the opportunity to get to know myself. As a person, as a woman and as an entrepreneur. I sold everything in the Netherlands - except my motorbike - and travelled to London, Canary Islands, drove my motorbike from Amsterdam to Mallorca, helped an NGO in Tanzania and I am currently about to go to Bali for a spiritual journey. Meanwhile, I transformed my interim/consultancy business into an online business and took myself on a kind of retreat that would change everything. 

As an entrepreneur, I have been building identities for people, leaders and organisations since 2009. It was high time to do this for myself as well, not just for me but for all entrepreneurs on a mission to make the world a bit more beautiful. I want to help them and I can only do that by being the best version of myself. 

In this first podcast I would like to share with you the highlights of my transformative journey of almost 4 years. And especially how these setbacks and losses, eventually led to the greatest gift I could have given myself: my own identity.

And let this be the thing I want to give to everyone on a mission to make the world a better place.
