I'm so excited to bring you today's special guest, one of my favourite authors of all time, Jon Gordon, who has written 28 books, including my favourite book, The Power of Positive Leadership. I attribute so much of the success I’ve achieved in my business and personal life to Jon’s work and I know you’re going to absolutely love this conversation as much as I did.
With a strong focus on positivity, leadership, and the importance of connection in business and life, in this episode, Jon shares his valuable insights on how these principles can transform both your professional and personal journey. He talks about the significance of our mindset, and how we must choose to operate out of love, not fear. Love brings connection, union and oneness with ourselves and the people around us, whereas fear brings division and separateness. We talk about how this principle can be universally applied to the way we operate our businesses, our personal lives and our relationship with ourselves.
One of the things I love about Jon’s work is how he simplifies concepts into tangible practices that are relevant in all areas of our lives and businesses. We spoke about communication and the importance of connection in client relationships. When we approach clients with a mindset of togetherness and genuine care, we foster empathy, commitment, and lasting relationships, which ultimately gives us a competitive edge.
We also talk about the need to slow down and be intentional about caring for our teams, clients, and ourselves. Jon and I discuss the principles of "loving, serving, and caring" as the foundation of success and how by putting these principles into practice, businesses can thrive, customers will feel valued, and teams will stay committed.
Towards the end of the episode, Jon and I discuss the importance of having a clear vision, mission, and values for both businesses and individuals. For entrepreneurs struggling with self-doubt and the onslaught of negative thoughts, Jon’s encouraging advice was to maintain optimism even in the face of challenges and that through your belief, you create a better reality.
We cover so much ground in this conversation and I have no doubt you are going to be encouraged and inspired by Jon’s contagious positive energy. This episode is a powerful reminder that success is not just about what you do but how you do it—with love, service, and care.
