What's your business, and who are your customers?
Super Power Experts is the home of the CEFA Method as well as the Superpower Network, the #1 Network for Inspired Personal Development. Our customers are those who know there is more to life than the regular 9-5 grind. Our people are looking for useable and actionable information they can implement into their own lives, relationships and businesses because they desire ease and grace in their day-to-day lives.
Tell us about yourself
My wife and I are both former counterintelligence agents with the US Army and left government when we had our own realization of the skill set we had learned and the curriculum we created and developed. We knew what we taught was meant for a bigger audience because we understood and experienced how it impacted the agents we trained. We knew we could do more with it by taking our experience to the world. Making an impact one person, one company at a time, is how we change the world. Changing the world for my children to give them a better container to create in and from is what drives me every day.
What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
The fact I am where I am in life. I am very blessed and get to spend 90% of my time with my family. My older children are over at our house 2-3 times a week for dinner, our 12-year-old has been in business with us since she was two years old, and I get to work every day with my best friend, who also happens to be my wife. My biggest accomplishment in business is creating a life I never thought I could have, even in the midst of the world saying it wasn't possible.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
Ego... thinking you know is one of the hardest things to deal with. Because as soon as you think you know, you realize you don't. Being a business owner is humbling. And letting go of your Ego and trusting Spirit to guide you in your decision-making processes is the easiest, most challenging, and most enjoyable thing you can do in business, but it requires faith. Which is why it is the hardest thing that comes with business because it's easy to forget the two are connected.
What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?
- Find your why, Focus on Impact, and the money will come.
- Surround yourself with people who see the vision and want to contribute in ways that feed the dream.
- Don't get distracted by shiny opportunities; stay on mission, stay focused and continue to step forward.
