“All you have to do is just a little better than that person to stand out” – Scott Harvey

Please meet my guest Scott Harvey. Scott is a former police negotiator and currently fulltime speaker and communications coach. He started his speaking business next to his fulltime job and noticed that his colleagues couldn’t deal with his success. Yet he persevered and now he is a very succerssful speaker. Scott has recently released his book “Silence kills” and cannot emphasize enough the importance of having good communication skills. 

The quote I shared is, is a quote that Scott shared with his kids. They have been trained on their communication skills from early childhood, so I can only imagine they are doing great nowadays. During the interview, it became very clear to me that Scott knows his stuff and I’m pretty sure we could have kept on talking for hours, since I’m a very big fan of language and communication skills as well.

I hope you don’t mind that I kept the interview under the hour, but the amount of tips and knowledge that Scot share is amazing! I would recommend you to listen more than once to this episode, in order to get all the golden nuggets in it.

“I could have been just a statistic, I refused to be that girl”- Tiffony Jacobs

Please meet my guest Tiffony Jacobs. Tiffony has a very special story. She comes from a family where her father was an addict and abusive. She had nothing and didn’t see a future for herself. Until she met a very special teacher at school that taught her and her classmates about  World War 2 and the holocaust and those stories gave her hope. Tiffony and her class mates started writing their own diaries about their dreams and their stories were transformed into an awrd winning movie called “Freedom Writers” (2007), starring Hillary Swank and Patrick Dempsey (amongst others). 

Tiffony decided to take her faith into her own hands and began educating herself on financial literacy. She made herself a promise to never sleep on a concrete floor again and she definitely kept that promise. And now she helps others to become financial independent, starting with her family. We had a great conversation about passion, purpose, mindset and other things that drive people. Tiffony aso shared a lot of golden nuggets in this interview. I hope you’ll find them all and use them in your advantage.

“I wish there was more me around 18 years ago when I started” – Michael Laidler

A great quote and when you listen to the episode, you’ll understand. Please welcome my guest Michael Laidler, a former police officer, that has made it his purpose to help first responders dealing with mental fatigue and building a healthy mindset.

When we were young, a lot of boys wanted to become a police officer. Michael is no exeption to that. Except, he actually did it and went for it! His interest was triggered by the arrest of O.J. Simpson, back in 1994, with the famous Ford Bronco chase. 

At the age of 19 years old, he entered the law enforcement industry as a police officer in Tallahassee, Florida. In the following 18 years, he built up some great expertise in different roles, leading to launching his own company in 2017, Michael Laidler Unlimited.  He is on a mission to impart the necessary personal development skills for first responders to operate at full capacity in any situation.

Since we’re both in the mindset work field, we had a great conversation and I truly believe it is important what Michael does. Listen to his story and become inspired as well!
