Coaching a Global Keynote Speaker Build Groups That Run Without Her | Meridith Elliott Powell | Ep 1015

From Outlier's Edge Podcast with Niiamah Ashong Niiamah Ashong

"You will find the opportunity when you can focus your energy on what you can control." — Meridith Elliott Powell

Join Niiamah (@niiamahashong) and Meridith Elliott Powell for a live coaching conversation about what happens when your message outgrows your calendar.

Meridith has spent 11 years researching why some people thrive in uncertainty while most struggle. She arrived with one question: how do you reach more people when reaching people still requires you.

Three things leaders will take:

Clarity is rarely the bottleneck. Meridith described her 2029 in ninety seconds, then admitted none of it exists yet.
Push energy asks how do I get them. Pull energy asks where the demand already lives.
The mechanism you need is usually the one you already stand on.

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.
