Coaching a 20-Year Banking Veteran Torn Between Two Businesses | Berni Slowey | Ep 1073

From Outlier's Edge Podcast with Niiamah Ashong Niiamah Ashong

"There's a difference between growing and amplifying what you're doing and trying to scale it." - Niiamah

Join Niiamah (@niiamahashong) and Berni Slowey for a live coaching conversation. Berni's challenge: torn between two businesses, burning the candle at both ends across a 14-hour time difference.

You'll walk away with:

Why "can I" is the wrong question for an outlier, and the one that replaces it
How to stay in the feedback loop you love without doing the work to reach it
The difference between growing beyond yourself and trying to scale

Welcome to the Outlier's Edge Podcast, hosted by Niiamah Ashong, Founder of Outlier's Edge and Sherpa of the World of Difference. On this podcast, you'll join other high-performing unconventional leaders and entrepreneurs (aka Outliers) as they talk about leveraging what makes them different to make a difference in the world.
