016: Entrepreneurship Grants Freedom and The Ability To Grow With Gina Catalano

In this episode, we chat with Gina Catalano from Venture Solutions.

I’m Gina Catalano – business strategist, mentor, and Martha Beck trained Life Coach.

I love working with clients who:

Want results in their business and life and will work to achieve them
Are enthusiastic about the passions and people in their lives
Understand pursuing their dreams may require a risk or two
Know that climbing mountains isn’t just about getting to the summit

But even the most intrepid can find themselves unsure sometimes. And it’s not about how hard you are working. Sometimes our old ways just don’t match the life we are supposed to live.

Together we will uncover the obstacles keeping you from the path you were destined to follow.

014: A Passion For Creativity And Helping Others To Build A Business

014: A Passion For Creativity And Helping Others To Build A Business

In this episode, we chat with Brock Shinen. Brock is a licensed attorney with a passion for helping others out.

Here is what Brock has on the homepage of his website:

As an entrepreneur, business owner, executive, or creator, it’s critical for you to identify the obstacles to your success – and then learn how to overcome those obstacles. There is no one size fits all approach. I work with you to architect and implement custom-tailored strategies to get you to the next level.

Here is a little more information about who Brock is and where to find him!

For years, people and organizations would come to me with legal problems (I’m a licensed attorney). But solving a legal problem wasn’t my only response. In each circumstance, I would see things no one else would see – communication issues, management failures, inefficiencies, weak structuring. Regardless of the title of my role, I wound up helping these same individuals and organizations address the underlying, non-legal issues. This ultimately led towards increased efficiency, profits, and productivity among my clients. My role as a strategic advisor had developed even though I had never even defined it.

One day, a client said to me, “Brock, you’re an amazing strategist. You should doing something about that.” In my mind, I was already doing it. But the more I thought about it, the more I realized my client was right. I wasn’t devoting enough energy to clarifying my role as a strategic advisor. I no longer wanted to only help individuals and organizations with legal problems. I wanted to help any entrepreneur, business owner, executive, creator, and business – large or small – become more efficient, productive, and profitable, whether they had a legal problem or not.

In a single pivot, I took action and started doing it. I’m now writing for some of the largest and most influential publications in the world, like Huffington Post and Addicted 2 Success, and I wrote and published an Amazon #1 bestselling book, “Crush the Stops: An Entrepreneur’s Guide to Finishing Things.” I offer strategic advisor services to individuals and organizations even if they have no legal issues, and I write and speak extensively on these and other topics.

With a spirit of humility, I believe I have a rare gift to offer the world. My experience, passion, skill set, and focus led me here. I thrive in seeing others succeed, and I’m uniquely positioned to help you get where you want to be. Let me be your guide to success.
