I loved this interview with my dear friend and mentor Teresa de Grosbois.

Teresa heads the international  Evolutionary Business Council, a membership-based organization that empowers changemakers to create profitable, impactful businesses that have a lasting and transformational impact on the individuals that they serve. 

We talk about the Evolutionary Business Council, or EBC in detail. We explore elements of her bestselling book, Mass Influence - the Habits of the Highly Influential. Teresa graciously offers every listener a free digital copy of the book along with a fun 30-day challenge that will help you in growing your influence.   

The EBC has some upcoming calls for interested members, so if you feel called to learn more, please reach out to me on my contact page at MakeEverythingFun so that I can tell you more.

We uncover a dozen fun nuggets along the way, so don’t miss out on this fun and fantastic interview:

#1: Limiting beliefs develop at a very young age.
What limiting beliefs might you have developed?

#2: Limiting beliefs do not need to be viewed as only negative. We can use them to motivate ourselves to do great things in life.

#3: Influence is a game, and it is important to play by the rules.

#4: Authenticity is not necessarily the same thing as honesty.

#5: Insight alone won't get you there. You need to take action.

#6: Request action from others when appropriate.

#7: Play is the path to transformation.

#8:  The EBC  is organized around the principle of the Tipping Point with the goal of getting our world to be conscious and sustainable.

#9: The EBC is organized around the 3 pillars of influence, profit, and impact.

#10: Consciousness is about challenging your limiting beliefs and thought patterns. 

#11:  Money is energy.

#10:  You are the average of the five people that you spend the most time with.

Her profitable hobby:  Conscious Crypto Traders on YouTube.

Enjoy the fun nuggets:

#1: The brain develops in stages, starting with Delta waves (ages -2) and moving to Theta waves (ages 2-6). Healing occurs optimally in Delta and Theta brain states.

Learn more about healing your mind/body system in this previous episode with Dr. Mario Martinez: https://makeeverythingfun.com/podcast/e062-dr-mario-martinez/

#2: Feelings are meant to be felt.
Hear Dr. Jane describe her Feelings Model in the interview: repress (stuck), feel (process), or feed (spiral).

Can you process feelings as quickly as 90 seconds? We explored this idea earlier in this episode with Dr. Chloe Carmichael. https://makeeverythingfun.com/podcast/e084-chloe-carmichael/

#3: Change your language to change how you feel about everyday tasks.

#4: Create new habitual thinking to overcome the Velcro and Telfon tendencies in your brain.

#5: Be curious.

#6: Breathe like a baby.#7: Learn how to prioritize the “big rocks” over sand and water.

#8: Listen to the wisdom from the body (not the brain). 80% of the information exchange between the brain and body flows UP from the body to the brain.

#9: Allow flow with breath, movement, and dance.  Lack of health/life comes from constriction.

#10: Trust your body to assist you with intuitive decision-making.

Listen for Dr. Jane’s method of asking for the outcome aligned with the highest good and feeling into the direction/movement of her body.

More bout Dr. Jane

Dr. Jane Tornatore has dedicated her career to helping people be kinder to themselves. Her style incorporates compassion, curiosity, deep listening, and heartfelt optimism, along with powerful shots of playfulness. She draws from her extensive professional training and wide-ranging life experiences to help people release old patterns and unnecessary stress. A therapist, coach, author, and speaker based in Seattle, audiences rave about her engaging workshops on perfectionism, self-compassion, brain hacks for changing our thinking, and reducing stress. Dr. Tornatore received a Master’s degree at the University of Illinois and a Ph.D. at the University of Minnesota.   She has authored over 20 articles and published a book—Everything is Perfect, Just Not ME! A Roadmap for Self-Acceptance. 

What’s fun for Dr. Jane

Having my body in the ocean, lake, or stream!

In our interview, we talk about how Kimberley overcame those “little inner voices” of doubt and criticism to launch a life full of fun and purpose. 

Don’t miss out on her secret of how she is able to show up every time in such as way that is magnetic and powerful for her fans.

We uncover nine fun nuggets in our discussion about her approach to an integrated life:

#2:  Age is just a number (never let it be an obstacle).

#3:  Do or do not. There is no try (we quoted Yoda!).

#4: Be creative about networking tools at your disposal (Kimberly mentions wearing on-brand clothing or having on-brand accessories as a great conversation starter).

#5:  You never know who you are going to talk to (so always be kind and engaging).

#6: Books, especially cookbooks, create community.

#7: Philanthropy creates community.

#8: Touch people's hearts and make a difference in the world.

#9:  Ask the (Tinkerbell) question: have I brought joy to God (Goddess/Universe/choose your word) today?

Doing new things such as trying Top Golf for the first time and beating my college son! I especially like creating good surprises such as surprising folks with candy canes (especially to the motorists backed up for miles on a road on Vancouver Island, BC), dropping off Easter baskets at friends' front doors during the pandemic, shipping Christmas in a box anonymously to someone in need. Hanging out with my family anywhere especially at Disney, and dating my husband again since our kids are all adults are at the top of my list!
