Good day everybody. Good day Sam, thanks to your form invitation to this podcast.
Sam Laura Brown
My pleasure. So to get began, do you thoughts simply sharing a bit about your self and the 2 companies that you’ve and yeah, simply what your state of affairs is in the meanwhile?
Eliska Krajickova
Yeah, yeah, for positive, I’m founder of bijou enterprise. It’s referred to as Sparkle Moments, and I based it once I was having additionally a full time job. It was 2018 I imagine. And since then, I scaled the enterprise to seven figures with 10 staff. And in addition I used to be type of a bored a bit like, why to not have much more work to do? So I launched my second enterprise in 2022 Yeah, I feel so. And I’m serving to there and different e commerce founders, and I do focus solely on feminine founders. Typically I acquired some, you realize, I get some dangerous feedback on Instagram from the person public publicity, however I do actually imagine in, like, worthwhile scaling and having sufficient house for one more roles. And that’s what I feel it’s very particular when you find yourself a girl with plenty of life roles. So. I do specialize solely on females with my membership. And I additionally do have a son and a brand new one on, on the best way coming. I don’t know when, in few weeks quickly, perhaps two, perhaps three weeks. Yeah, yeah. So, yeah, that’s it.
Sam Laura Brown
Wonderful. So a jewellery enterprise and a training enterprise, and in relation to perfectionism, do you thoughts sharing a bit about like, whenever you realized you have been a perfectionist? Was {that a} latest realization? Have you ever all the time thought you’re a perfectionist? What has your journey been with perfectionism?
Eliska Krajickova
I’d be the one that would all the time say on the interviews in my earlier company jobs, like, what’s your power or weak point? And I shall be all the time. I’m the perfectionist, you realize, I do the whole lot completely, and I believed that it’s actually about being good in the whole lot, till I discovered you, and I don’t know who shared your podcast, and I begin following you on Instagram whenever you have been speaking about far more matters, how one can see that you’re battling perfectionism. And I feel it was extra about like, you need to do the whole lot completely. You need to do the whole lot final minute, to actually, like, have the strain on you’re additionally like, suspending lot of issues you’re. And it was actually about like, all of us as a perfectionist, want to love, plan in another way. We’re not like a traditional individuals. And I actually had these moments of like, you’re speaking about me, that is me, and that’s me, and that Instagram life is about me, and that electronic mail is about me.
So I feel I believed it’s one thing earlier than I met you, after which when I discovered you on-line, I spotted, like, how broader it’s, and the way extra, how in additional areas of your life, it’s like, you realize, coming and it’s simply not about doing issues completely. I feel it’s just like the smallest situation you may have, or the factor to beat, the problem to beat. And I used to be positively the one that will say, simply 10 minutes and I’ll come for dinner and it’s by no means 10 minutes. Yeah, you realize, I used to be the one who was nonetheless attempting to have, like, empty calendar, till I joined the PGSD. And now I do know that it’s not the purpose, and it’s not even attainable. And it’s not prefer it mustn’t. I mustn’t goal for like a wonderfully finished to do record, as a result of that’s not gonna ever occur. And the perfectionist, we all the time need to be finished with the whole lot, you realize.
After which if we’re not finished, we shall be doing it a bit longer, only a bit, after which from a bit, it’s two hours, and we’ll skip some meetups with associates or the health club or one thing, as a result of we have to get it finished. So I’m positively that type of perfectionist, as a result of I additionally suppose that within the PGSD as properly, there are like, extra type of like personalities, or like, you realize, individuals battling totally different challenges and you’re simply holding house for everybody and like, the totally different eventualities. So I’m that one, the one like, I can skip health club and from two minutes, it’s gonna be 20 minutes and perhaps two hours.
Sam Laura Brown
Yeah, for positive. So with enterprise notably, how did perfectionism present up for you? Such as you talked about about leaving issues to the final minute and that type of factor, like, the place was perfectionism holding what you are promoting again? How do you know that was occurring?
Eliska Krajickova
The largest factor I observed was for me waking up not realizing what to do. I didn’t even know how you can plan in a approach that I do know what’s gonna come right now, in every week, in a month, in a 12 months, I used to be simply the individual, like, creating these to do record primarily based on my temper within the morning after which including much more within the night time, and simply I didn’t actually have any type of, like, long run, sustainable method to it. So for me, what was the most important problem earlier than was I actually don’t know what I’m gonna do. Like, it relies upon how properly I’ll sleep and what I’ve a style for, you realize, and perhaps simply because of my like, self-discipline and like with the ability to do plenty of issues for lengthy sufficient of interval time the enterprise was thriving, the jewellery enterprise. But when I wouldn’t be a part of PGSD, I’d by no means launch the teaching enterprise, as a result of I wouldn’t have the time for it. I wouldn’t know how you can plan one other enterprise into my first enterprise, plus with the child. So this was the like, the most important problem that I wished to unravel with PGSD was like, I need to even know what to place in my calendar, as a result of at this second, I do not know what is going to I work on right now or tomorrow.
Sam Laura Brown
Yeah, I’ve heard that so typically that, like somebody described it so properly, like feeling behind earlier than you even open your eyes within the morning, and never realizing the place to even begin. And there’s so many issues issues to do, however you don’t even know what’s most vital. So for you, what made you really join PGSD. As a substitute of similar to, following alongside on Instagram and listening to the podcast? Why did you really determine to hitch this system?
Eliska Krajickova
Yeah, to be sincere, I feel I simply, like, rewarded myself with it as a result of I used to be like, I’m hustling a lot I need to change it, and I hustle a lot that I need to deal with myself and my internal individual with transformation that may assist me to work much less and truthfully, like I do have a husband that’s the fairly reverse in the whole lot what we do. So if I’m the hustling enterprise or the little bit straightforward, rising, perhaps lazy worker. So for me, I actually wished to progress and remodel, additionally for our relationship. So I used to be all the time the one fascinated by the enterprise, all the time the one being late for dinner. It’s all the time the one like saying that the excessive precedence in my life is my enterprise. After which he was like, Yeah, however it’s probably not a real like there’s a household half, there is sort of a vacation.
So I actually wished to alter for him as properly, as a result of I knew that it’s gonna profit me. So for me, it was not like a life or die situation. For me, it was like I hustle a lot, and I do it each single day on the repeat alone in my enterprise, that I deserve this program that may assist me, you realize, to develop into snug in day after day, realizing what to do, with the ability to relaxation, not completely but, however a minimum of in some capability. So yeah, my choice was similar to, I deserve it, and I do know and perhaps the choice actually was for me, like I do know I’ll remodel my life. It was not like, sure or no, I would attempt to see I actually went for this system, realizing and being determined that I do know that I need to change the enterprise, I need to change my life, and I type of like self trusted my choice that the PGSD will assist me. I don’t know if it doesn’t make sense. Eight months pregnant, I by no means know, acquired a cow out of my mouth, however hopefully it does make sense?
Sam Laura Brown
It does make sense, it does. It positively does. And it’s so highly effective to method investing in PGSD or any funding that approach, and that’s the identical approach that I method it, too, of of like, sure, I need to spend money on one thing that I do know goes to be so useful, and likewise I do know that I’m going to indicate up and do the issues that I must do, and I’m not going to do it completely, however I’m prepared and I’m dedicated, and I would like that change for myself, and I would like that development, and I don’t need to simply keep the identical. So I really like that you just had that method with signing up for PGSD and starting energy planning and simply going for it, and I feel the outcomes that you just’ve had as properly from PGSD and energy planning actually communicate to that a lot. Do you thoughts sharing a bit about with energy planning? Like, what was that like for you to start with, we speak in regards to the three month dedication, actually as a technique to simply get into the expansion mindset about it, that it’s a new talent you’re growing and to not count on, as we perfectionists try this, as quickly as you do one thing for the very first time, you ought to be actually, actually good at it. So what was that first three months like for you, going from the to do record and never realizing what you have been engaged on, and simply being so overwhelmed and likewise exhausted with all of the motion to then starting to energy plan.
Eliska Krajickova
Do my if I similar to, add one thing to the earlier one, after which leap again, after all, to the query? I simply wished so as to add for everybody listening that this program was my very first in entire life expertise, like greater funding than similar to programs and like these digital merchandise. So I simply wished to share right here prefer it was brave issues. I used to be very scared when becoming a member of and it was like, after our Christmas season in jewellery enterprise, and I used to be like, I’m simply rewarding myself. And oh, my God, I ship these cash. So I simply wished to say that it was, it was nonetheless an enormous choice for me, and simply wished to share that it’s like 10 instances the funding got here again in return. So simply to everybody, like, know, in case you are afraid of the funding, it’s not like, $29 program or, like, yeah, freebie, however it’s actually worthy. And the transformation, I don’t suppose so it may be even, like, calculated, you realize, by that value.
So I simply wished to get again to that, yeah, everybody is aware of. I’m very self conscious, into funding, like with greater packages, and the query, yeah, I feel that crucial factor, which is one thing, what you talked about inside this system, is like, it’s if it’s 80% let’s rejoice if it’s like 80% finished 80% good, like 20% of issues won’t ever get down. It’s fantastic. That’s like, what in all probability like stored me actually like going that there have been weeks once I didn’t do the weekly assessment. They have been weeks once I when my son acquired sick and I needed to postpone the entire working day. So I feel, like, being form and actually not anticipating from myself, like, 100% first week I’ll energy plan, and we’ll simply make it wonderful. And it’s the talent. So the extra you apply, the extra like, the higher you’re going to get in it. So positively, I can’t say it was straightforward. It was not the start. It’s like click on, creating the purpose, beginning. You already know, the primary energy planning that’s gonna the Energy Hour. It’s gonna take you round with greater than an hour. However then it’s actually getting simpler and simpler, and as soon as it’s simply grew to become the routine for you, and you can’t stay with out it. Yeah, that’s, that’s it, these 80% it’s like, the important thing to, like, keep motivated on the best way.
Sam Laura Brown
Yeah, the 80% comply with by way of. I simply need to speak about it for just a little bit. I’m glad you talked about it, as a result of after we will, at the same time as you, proceed with energy planning, however to start with, particularly specializing in 80% comply with by way of and attempting to not be within the all or nothing mindset of like a they should comply with my plans completely, or there’s no level, actually makes such a distinction. And a technique to consider it, too, for anybody who does have any resistance to that, is to our perfectionist mind, what’s 100% is definitely like 200% and what’s 80% is definitely 100% so if we’re really aiming for 80% we actually get 100% of what must be finished, finished, however as a result of our mind simply all the time desires to do extra, it gained’t really feel like 100% and it’s why we will then actually rejoice as properly, not simply exhibiting up and doing that completely, or not doing it in any respect, however actually celebrating.
I’m exhibiting up and I’m retaining on going. And as you stated, there are weeks the place you don’t do the weekly assessment, otherwise you don’t do your energy hour, or no matter occurs, however you simply hold going, after which over time, you develop a behavior with it. And actually, I really like seeing PGSD within the persistence logs when individuals like I didn’t energy plan this week, and I may simply really feel it that I didn’t do it. And I’m going again to doing it once more, and I’ve that have nonetheless the place my mind’s like, oh my god, I simply don’t need to need to plan out the week and give it some thought, and I’d reasonably simply, like, get in there and get issues finished. And it all the time is approach much less productive and far more disturbing, and, yeah, simply nowhere close to pretty much as good. Have you ever had experiences like that?
Eliska Krajickova
Yeah, I wished to say, if you’ll skip the Energy Hour, you’ll remorse it for the entire week, actually like a sport changer of your week. So I feel I skipped it like twice in two years. And actually these weeks have been tough. I do energy operating, even with my son getting sick, and the very first thing once I see he’s sick, and I do know that tomorrow is not any daycare, I’ll simply make a espresso, I’ll, like, put him to his mattress, and I’ll have like, 32 hour to actually repower plan the few subsequent few days, as a result of there isn’t any level into, like, doing the work as soon as the child is at dwelling, and I do know that I’d similar to, be very laborious on myself. So I similar to, breathe. I’m bit unhappy for a bit, after which I simply repower plan, as a result of there isn’t any level into going for the week with the examination. Versatile it’s worthwhile to be the extra issues taking place in your life that you just don’t know or you possibly can not predict, the extra I feel you’ll use the facility planning as a instrument that may all the time floor you, and can all the time be just like the instrument to actually navigate these days and circumstances that you possibly can probably not predict.
And I additionally need to say, like all of us within the PGSD, we’re not like a magical individuals going for this system, and it’s extra about this fixed help that you’re going to get from the podcast episodes you possibly can re pay attention or from the discussion board whenever you and your crew are all the time like reminding to Have fun, to be nice. So like, to your work, for the 80% and by some means, you realize, it’s gonna prepare your mind in a weeks, weeks and months, to actually be celebrating 80% and I feel that if it might be solely similar to one lesson within the module after which by no means spoken about, it wouldn’t in all probability, like, hit us all that tough, however because it’s matter that it’s, you realize, plenty of superior I feel talked about on the calls, or we now have the help within the discussion board, I feel like, that’s when the transformation actually occurs, that this system is with you on the go for so long as you want. And I positively don’t suppose you want the lifetime entry, which is nice and handy, but when you’ll keep on with the whole lot in this system, I feel you will notice the outcomes like, approach, approach, approach, approach sooner.
Sam Laura Brown
100% yeah, it’s lifetime entry, however not as a result of it takes a lifetime to get to the outcome, however simply so that everybody, particularly like we perfectionists, have been like, hey, I would like to seek out the proper time that I can use it and benefit from it. Like, no, you possibly can simply enroll and get entry after which use it when it is sensible for you. However I really like the way you shared about that, as a result of we actually work laborious to create a tradition like a development minded tradition inside PGSD of celebrating the hassle and the braveness and placing your self on the market and giving it a go and doing that in order that we will hold persisting after which persevering with to succeed. And yeah, we will simply be so in our heads about it didn’t work immediately, and so I ought to simply cease doing it. And like, No, you’re doing a fantastic job. You simply need to do it for just a little bit longer.
However I really like as properly what you stated about planning like when you may have an unpredictable life, that that’s the finest time to do energy planning, as a result of I hear from so many people who find themselves like, I really like the sound of energy planning, however I simply have too many interruptions, or I’ve a well being situation, or I’ve little ones, or I’m caring for my dad and mom, or my motivation actually ebbs and flows, or I’ve cellphone calls in any respect bizarre instances, like there’s all the time like all of us have life circumstances, and only a few of us are like I’ve day-after-day, uninterrupted, good well being, nobody to look after, nobody to care about, nobody else can influence me, and I can simply be productive on a regular basis. All of us have these issues that we have to cope with. So may you say a bit extra about how in case your life is unpredictable, that’s the very best state of affairs to be energy planning?
Eliska Krajickova
I wished to say that some of the difficult issues within the pgsd, which I completely get, why is it like that’s whenever you share like, there isn’t any one good calendar I can train you. And once I was not in PGSD earlier than, and I requested you, I feel it was on some Instagram Dwell, like, how a lot clear relaxation I ought to get, and what to place within the clear relaxation? And you’re like, Yeah, it’s laborious to say. It relies upon, actually, in your life circumstances. And like, what do you want as a clear relaxation? And I do know I bear in mind, like, The place, the place is the like, the instance, like one calendar, and that’s why I feel it really works so properly, as a result of it’s gonna train you the strategy which you can take for a full time job, for a aspect hustle upon getting a child, upon getting a second child, since you simply know how you can do the work, and you’ve got the talent.
So I simply wished to say the lifetime entry that when some massive change in your life goes to occur, you possibly can all the time come again to it and see, and I typically actually relisten on the modules which are just like the a part of the core program, and I really feel like, you realize, I’m listening after six months, and I’m already on totally different type of, like, a part of the journey, yeah, and it clicks in some totally different approach. After which I’ll pay attention pregnant, and it’s one other. Then I’ve 5 new individuals in a crew, after which I’m similar to, yeah, now I can use it for my life otherwise. So I simply wished to say that, and I can see it with my all or nothing associates who’re normally like, oh yeah, my my son, he stayed at dwelling, and I’m simply finished with the entire day.
And I feel that in case you are having the talent of energy planning, you possibly can nonetheless, you’ll nonetheless do far more than everybody round you, as a result of it’ll simply train you how you can create the house, how you can create assets for your self, how you can have the clear relaxation. That’s the toughest half for me. So I feel the extra you don’t know what’s gonna come, the extra it’s worthwhile to energy planning. As a result of when you don’t have the talent, I feel you’ll be simply caught within the center ready for this, like good circumstances coming to your life precisely. I’ve eight hours of, you realize, clear work time the place I can lastly do the work. And I feel, like that’s ready for one thing what’s in all probability by no means gonna come. And the soonest we’ll admit ourselves that life occurs, adjustments occurs, challenges occurs, and the way can I help myself? The earlier we’ll see the outcomes. And truthfully, it’s like the identical with the to do record, proper? And the calendars, in case you are ready to have all finished it’s by no means gonna occur, you realize?
And the facility planning will train you how you can have life exterior the work. As a result of, anyway, what’s the purpose? It’s by no means gonna get finished. All of it from, like, enterprise house owners. We like, Yeah, we like constructing issues we like, like, you realize, self growth, issues, new tasks, new duties. So anyway. In the long run of the day when the whole lot is completed, I feel all of us have like, backlog of 10 concepts, you realize, to launch and prefer to work on. So I actually suppose it’s just like the emergency factor you want, like, if individuals which are sick want hospital, I feel that the enterprise proprietor simply wants energy planning in the event that they, like, need to have some life exterior the work, and so they don’t need to be this annoying pal who is just in regards to the enterprise, or this annoying spouse that’s all the time complaining about not having sufficient time.
And that’s what I really like within the discussion board as properly, that I get fairly often reminded of, like, let’s determine that you’ve the time you want. And like, what are you gonna do with that? And, like, lose the thought of there’s not sufficient time in my calendar that such a strong thought that we get reminded, you realize, within the discussion board and within the course that I already overlook, what was the primary query? However I feel it was about energy planning whenever you don’t know what’s gonna occur. Yeah, sure. I feel the extra unpredicted issues you may have in your life, the extra you want the talent. As a result of like with the ability to plan your good eight hours day week, it’s simply not something like difficult or something you would want an enormous help with. So the extra aspect jobs, infants, no matter it’s to companies you may have, the extra I feel you possibly can profit from the entire program.
Sam Laura Brown
Yeah and I really like the way you talked about going again to the teachings and the modules, and actually like reacquainting your self with what energy planning is every time you undergo a life transition or a enterprise transition. And for me, my energy planning has dramatically modified as I’ve gone by way of totally different life phases as properly, from not having any youngsters to then having one to then having three, and likewise eager to work a extra condensed work week and have clear relaxation. However then my clear relaxation seems to be very totally different to the way it used to look earlier than I had youngsters, once I may simply learn my guide for just a few hours and do issues like that, and now I don’t try this. So simply determining, what does clear relaxation seem like for me on this season of life, like I’ve it’s so highly effective to have the ability to have that talent set of making your personal plan for your self.
As a substitute of me saying, like, I get plenty of questions on this, such as you have been saying of like, okay, are you able to simply present me you realize, how a lot clear relaxation? What do I do in my clear relaxation? What time ought to I begin my day? What ought to I work on first? And like, I may make one thing up and inform you, however then, when your life circumstance adjustments, I’ve to inform you once more, and it’s a must to all the time be reliant on me. And I really like educating self reliance and that talent set of all I can really determine by way of that have of the Energy Hour and the little tweaks within the weekly assessment, I can determine when works finest for me to work and what to prioritize, and what are my needle movers, and what I would like to regulate and how you can hold issues versatile. And it’s simply so empowering upon getting that. Do you thoughts sharing a bit extra about going from having one enterprise to then with the ability to have time for one more enterprise. How did energy planning assist you with that?
Eliska Krajickova
Yeah, that’s a model new historical past I’ll attempt to bear in mind. However I feel all of it actually began with yeah, simply realizing what to work on after which whenever you energy plan, you will notice, like, right here and there’s free spot in my calendar, you realize. And I wished to do it for like, two, three years earlier than. Previous to that, I already was pondering like, I wish to begin some enterprise for a girl and assist them with their e commerce shops. So I had this thought, however I by no means knew, like, how you can put it into my life, as a result of I used to be already, like, overwhelmed with the E commerce enterprise. So I feel what it actually created, indirectly, was it’s actually totally different. If you get up, you don’t know what to do, and also you randomly select duties, after which there’s a very totally different approach, how Energy Plan will train you, and the Energy Hour will present you how you can successfully work together with your calendar, how to decide on what to work on, how lengthy it ought to take, and the whole lot that by some means I don’t know. I feel it simply occurred, like naturally that I noticed, like, it’s manageable now, like, I do know what to work on. I do know this. Can I delegate?
As a result of the facility planning, it’s not solely about your calendar, however like, what you possibly can delegate, the place you possibly can automate, the place you possibly can delete, in order that it’s simply naturally, by some means progressed. I don’t actually bear in mind, in a approach of like, yeah, I’m not so overwhelmed anymore. Let’s have extra enjoyable. Let’s like, let’s add a brand new mission. So I feel it was actually like, primarily based on few weeks of routines and actually retaining the facility planning and sticking with it, that it’s simply by some means unlocked. I don’t actually bear in mind, like, one second you realize that it might be. It’s simply by some means it stopped feeling the best way of, like, I wish to do it, however I don’t have a single minute for it, yeah, as a result of I feel it was like, I can do it. I’ve the time. I simply might want to do some changes. I might want to change makes, delegate some issues, and like, let’s have this considered I can do it, and the way can I energy plan the one other mission you realize into the calendar.
Sam Laura Brown
Do you thoughts sharing a bit about together with your relationship? Since you talked about about eager to not be working on a regular basis, or saying, like, Hey, I simply want 10 extra minutes and then you definately’re nonetheless working a few hours later. What influence has it had in your relationship to be energy planning all of the whereas, like including one other enterprise and like your life circumstances altering as properly, so you may have extra in your plate than whenever you first began. However what’s occurred in your relationship due to the facility planning?
Eliska Krajickova
I feel there’s, like, an enormous a part of it that, like nobody can see and my husband can’t see since you can’t actually and let’s be nice in order that it can’t be seen typically, how typically and the way a lot we’re fascinated by our companies. So you realize, some transformation occur inside that I can benefit from the film, or I can actually pay attention throughout dinner what you’re speaking about, as a result of I’m not fascinated by the enterprise. So that is like the large internal change that occurred, and my husband would by no means inform that it occurred, as a result of he by no means knew how a lot I used to be like out of his world, fascinated by my companies. In order that was the primary massive change that I might be current with him, not simply bodily, however mentally as properly.
And there are, like, just a little adjustments that my husband would declare, like we’re on vacation and within the aircraft immediately we sit. You’re nonetheless engaged on what you are promoting. I don’t get it. You’re, like, obsessed. However for me, the large change occurred that I used to be probably not anymore fascinated by, like, these little day by day duties. And I do use, like vacation transportation and issues to love strategize and issues in regards to the imaginative and prescient and one thing what I’d have by no means like, ever even like a small period of time in my life. And so for him, once more, he would see it, perhaps I’m working once more. For me, it’s actually like unbothered, not disturbing as a reward time within the aircraft. And, yeah, primarily, I feel it’s additionally in regards to the energy planning gave me an area. I had the house already, however I didn’t see it, so it gave me the house for the clear relaxation. And I feel that after you possibly can energize your self, and you’re creating assets for your self. I feel you robotically simply present up as a greater, you realize, spouse or husband, since you are resourced. You aren’t skilled. You had your time for the remainder. So then you possibly can maintain house to your husband, you realize, after the work, as a result of it was not 12 hours of labor in your calendar, and you probably did the health club.
So now you’re somebody who can really, you possibly can really need to be with and spend afternoon with, you realize, as a result of I’m not this overwhelmed. I don’t have time. I can’t simply do it right now. Let’s go on the Kinder the playground with out me, as a result of I can simply go. I created the house and I can go. Plus, what it gave me is I may also do some me time, after which I’ve the facility and the vitality to spend it with my household. So I feel it’s simply helps me in a approach, to be a greater spouse for him. And I feel, to be sincere, I all the time say I couldn’t ever stay with me. It’s very laborious. And I feel with plenty of enterprise founding girls, it’s actually laborious to stay with them. So like, Let’s recognize our males that they will do it with us. So, yeah, what it gave me is, like, I feel I really am, like, a greater spouse for somebody who will not be that a lot into enterprise, you realize, as I’m. So it’s like serving to me to actually, like, go into like, common life of standard individuals, how they undergo the day. And, yeah, I feel that was, like the principle change actually occurred, like, within me, and the way I present up, you realize, as a spouse, and that our conversations aren’t 90% solely about my companies anymore, yeah, which should be drained, draining for another person.
Sam Laura Brown
Energizing for you, although, However, um, with the like, it’s such a fantastic level about bodily presence after which psychological presence, and that I can relate to that as properly. Positively at instances, if I haven’t been switched off that I’m like, I’m with everybody, however I’m nonetheless fascinated by issues and with the ability to develop that talent of with the ability to. You not be fascinated by on a regular basis and really be current with everybody makes such an enormous distinction. And I do suppose they do really feel it, even when they don’t have as a lot consciousness as we try this, like I can really totally hearken to you and be 100% current within the dialog and never be like, Oh, what if I did this with that, or what if I did that? So it’s unbelievable, and simply with the ability to spend your time, for instance, when you’re on the aircraft or issues like that, strategizing and doing that massive image pondering, since you don’t need to be nervous about the entire little issues or like, attempting to maintain this to do record in your head.
As a result of after we do work from a extremely lengthy to do record, in the end we now have to maintain the whole lot in our head and continuously return and prioritize, or what about this? Or what about that? As a result of we don’t actually have, really a system that we will use, even whether it is superbly organized in notion or in a shade coded calendar, however it’s like time blocking. It simply it makes such a distinction. I’m so glad you shared about simply these like transformations that from the surface, it would seem like you’re nonetheless working quite a bit since you are somebody who actually enjoys working, and also you’re spending an identical period of time with your loved ones, perhaps, however there are massive adjustments which have occurred. So yeah, I really like listening to that that’s so vital.
Eliska Krajickova
There may be, like, one other half, like for with the connection with my husband, however there’s a massive distinction in case you are, like, together with your youngsters and you’re simply there, or in case you are with them, like, totally current. So for me, it was additionally vital, like, to not go to playground, as a result of I do know that I will be on my cellphone, coping with emails, you realize. So I’d say, like, the equal change within the partnership was for my son as properly, that I don’t like drag the work, you realize, all through the entire day, till the night time, after which subsequent day once more. And I can actually be like, now I’m in my position, like, if I’ll do and I 90% do, like, the little tweaks in the long run of the work day, I can then, like, both change, you realize, into the second position.
So I feel the necessity was even larger to alter how I plan and the way I attempt to work with myself upon getting one other position, which is in a single position, which is like this large one. And I had a mother, and she or he, who was a lot at work that I’m like, if my son will ever say, Mother, you have been at work on a regular basis, that’s gonna be like my largest loss I did in, you realize, in my life. So I’m very conscious of, like spending time with him, and it’s totally different for me, like being with him I simply take pleasure in and like being in my head, you realize, operating falls across the enterprise, so I feel it’ll, simply, like, remodel the whole lot in your life, and never simply what you are promoting or the partnership. It is going to simply, I feel will remodel you as an entire in all roles that you’ve.
Sam Laura Brown
Thanks for sharing that with PGSD specifically, earlier than we began recording. And I stated, I simply need to share a bit about your expertise in this system as properly, for anybody who’s fascinated by signing up. And also you stated, How sincere can we be? And I stated, you possibly can share something you need to share about PGSD. And also you stated you actually wished to speak in regards to the teaching calls, and since you’re in Europe and the decision instances don’t be just right for you, and we do have European PGSDers who attend the calls. But in addition there are PGSDers within the states which our name instances are appropriate for, however it conflicts with one thing they have already got on, or it’s simply not at a very good time for them. And there are some PGSDers who attend the calls, which is non-compulsory, and plenty of who don’t, however who nonetheless get so many wonderful advantages from being in PGSD. So I’m simply curious what you wished to share, since you stated you need to speak about, like, what your expertise has been with not attending lots of the calls.
Eliska Krajickova
I prefer it. Additionally it’s relying on the season of life. It was like two years in the past, so I used to be nonetheless breastfeeding, and my son was waking up, like 4 or fives time an evening. So I I did actually need to prioritize the sleep, like two hours and the decision. And I normally…
Sam Laura Brown
I help that.
Eliska Krajickova
So however what I used to be actually having fun with have been the like, the recording from the earlier course, as a result of I feel you talked about it someplace within the within the discussion board, that you just don’t actually need to go, like, from the episode primary, and like up and to be like, up to date. And I actually, like to start with, simply selected primarily based on what it was like, one thing, what I’m battling, or one thing what? Yeah, that is much like my life circumstances. So what’s nice in regards to the podcast is that there’s simply so many recordings.
Sam Laura Brown
Sorry, are you speaking in regards to the podcast?
Eliska Krajickova
Yeah the personal podcast. So there shall be, like, positively for 10 your life eventualities. There shall be like 10, like coachings, and you’ll simply hearken to it. And I feel that there’s a energy, I feel you’re mentioning it as properly within the discussion board, that typically it’s approach simpler to see or prefer to get your help when you find yourself listening and you aren’t being coached, as a result of when you find yourself getting coached, you’re, like, just a little bit careworn. Possibly, you realize, if it’s like me, my English will not be my native language, proper? So there’s already some barrier. However when you find yourself listening, it’s simply, I feel, actually like, on totally different deeper degree, since you don’t have this emotional attachment and stress and the whole lot across the life purpose. So for me, yeah, I used to be similar to, digging deep into the personal podcast in like, first three, 4 months, as a result of each second one was like, Yeah, that’s me, or that is somebody I can relate to. Oh, yeah.
And, you realize, the matters aren’t like, they’re by some means customized, however yeah, if it’s in regards to the development purpose, like, all of us can by some means, like, take it for our life and study from it. So for me, it was to be sincere once more, to start with, I used to be like, yeah, like, there are some recordings, like, no matter, I would hearken to them. Like, I don’t know what’s the hype about it? I’ll give it a shot. I’ll in all probability by no means attend in subsequent two years life. After which I acquired pregnant once more, so now I’m sleeping as properly for for upcoming new child. And it actually could be very, very, very, very like invaluable useful resource that you’re going to get there. And as I stated, there’s so a lot of them by now that there isn’t any zero nothing. There isn’t a probability that you’ll not discover a name that may help you right now together with your actual issues with out being coached, as a result of somebody 99% already acquired coached. And it was in all probability not as soon as. There are, like…
Sam Laura Brown
Yeah they already acquired it.
Eliska Krajickova
Yeah there’s like far more episodes about that one. So yeah, positively, that was one thing what I didn’t suppose to start with, when becoming a member of is usually a helpful like, sure, some recordings. However these matters, you realize, it’s probably not about, like, what works now, it’s Fb adverts, after which in six months, it’s outdated and outdated and nobody cares. However it’s actually like, I can pay attention in 10 years, you realize, and nonetheless discover it very invaluable. And, like, up to date. So, yeah, positively, I positively undervalued, after which it already works.
Sam Laura Brown
Yeah, I’m glad to listen to that, as a result of having the PGSD personal podcast is certainly one of my favourite elements about this system, as a result of I’ve as a consumer benefited probably the most from listening to others getting coached, and it’s why I moved away from doing one on one teaching to doing PGSD as a program, as a result of everybody simply was telling me how alone they felt and that they have been the one ones struggling, however I used to be simply saying the identical issues time and again. And in addition, the principle factor that I really like about listening to another person getting coached is as a result of I’d have by no means introduced a sure matter to a training name, or I didn’t even have the notice that I wanted help with it. So if I used to be getting one on one coach, we wouldn’t have even talked about it, however listening to another person, I’m like, Huh, that’s what I’m going by way of, however I couldn’t have even articulated it. So I really like the way you share in regards to the podcast. And so what would you say for somebody who desires to be in PGSD and is like, both I don’t like being on calls or I don’t suppose the decision instances will work for me. What would you say to that one who is in that state of affairs?
Eliska Krajickova
So to get the total expertise, I signed up for teaching as soon as, and I so I understand how it really works, and like what it could actually carry you. And I feel, like in most eventualities, you’ll simply profit extra from the recordings and like, let’s be glad that there are different people who find themselves becoming a member of and signing up for the teaching so that you don’t need to, and you’ll simply pay attention about it and end up in it, you realize. However then, sure, when you suppose it’s very specialised, the issue is, like, by no means been solved in PGSD, there’s all the time an choice to ask for the teaching. That’s nice. However for me, like waking up at 2am it’s it’s simply not attainable. Possibly it’s going to be in three years now. And to me, it’s actually like, I do see solely advantages at this second. I don’t need to wake at 2am I don’t need to suppose what I must get coach on. I can simply do cleansing and, like, discover the subject primarily based on the naming of the personal episodes with one thing what I’m now battling. After which I can simply, like, simply have these aha moments with out the necessity of being current there. You already know?
Sam Laura Brown
That 100% is non-compulsory to attend, and there are individuals who will attend who need the teaching, and everybody else will get to learn. We’ve actually designed this system to be pleasant for lurkers who simply need to study from the shadows or not be on the decision, so that you just actually don’t need to work together with everybody else when you don’t need to, however you do get the advantages from listening to everybody else work together and getting coached.
Eliska Krajickova
What I’d add. And so the one factor is that I don’t know like from what international locations individuals are listening this podcast, however for instance, in my nation in Europe, there’s extra just like the widespread floor apply is like life coach, or the coach on the whole, is somebody who will simply ask you questions, like, what’s your purpose? The place do you need to go? The place do you see your self in three years? How do you’ll create a plan? They usually don’t actually speculated to have an opinion, and that’s what’s actually been taught like on these, like academic packages. However what I actually like, and what’s one thing, what individuals can’t get out of the the general public podcast is how spicy you will get. I imply, you as a coach, like, typically you’ll similar to, we shall be like, going across the circles, and Sam will come and she is going to ask one very direct query.
And you’ll simply, like, pay attention the silence of like, okay, that is the factor I’m avoiding. And she or he simply discovered it in me. And I don’t know the way she finished that, and now I’ve to answer again. So typically what I actually giggle, and what’s not very seen, I feel, exterior this system, is that you just don’t you aren’t afraid to ask, like, I wouldn’t say, like uncomfortable questions. They don’t seem to be uncomfortable, however they aren’t, like, shallow questions. They’ll simply go deep in a short time. Like, you don’t must have a training name quarter-hour I’m studying about you. You’ll simply, like, ask three questions, after which you’re simply digging deep together with your questions, like, we don’t have time, let’s get to it. So that is what I actually love, and it’s one thing what’s not typically, that seen, you realize, within the public podcast episodes, and I say you ought to be celebrated extra.
Sam Laura Brown
Oh my God, I’m dying. That’s so hilarious. And that one thing is a coach I do like about my teaching model within the sense of and I assume I don’t actually speak about it a lot, however I do like to provide a little bit of, like, powerful love and directness when it’s wanted. I may be very like, have a delicate method as properly, however I prefer to get to the purpose. And actually we will are likely to type of simply need to speak about the whole lot across the factor and never speak in regards to the precise factor. So thanks for sharing about that with PGSD, past energy planning, as a result of we’ve talked about energy planning and we gained’t chat for an excessive amount of longer. I simply need to be respectful of your time. However with PGSD, there’s clearly energy planning that you just study and the expansion purpose and clear relaxation. However are there another components of PGSD? As a result of there are different matters we speak about that we haven’t even touched on. However is there the rest that’s been notably useful for you?
Eliska Krajickova
For me, primarily based on the life circumstances I’ve been by way of the final 12 months, plus the expertise from the discussion board, for me, it was actually training the self belief probably the most, and I feel, like, actually self belief, and perhaps, just like the kindness to your self and with the ability to rejoice your self and never solely see what else I I haven’t get finished this week, however like, actually getting again the help of, like, Yeah, however like you may have finished this, or such as you survived together with your sick son, that’s the factor we should always rejoice, and never like, be all or nothing, as a result of I haven’t finished any work three days in row, you realize?
So I feel it’s just like the aspect impact of the entire program is that it’s gonna train you additionally like how you can recognize your self and the way to not suppose solely about I’m not doing sufficient. I’m not ok. I ought to be extra productive. I ought to this or I ought to that, and it’s actually gonna train you actually to love self belief and rejoice you in your all of the seasons of life, and likewise the self consciousness and with the ability to consider your work and the whole lot you do after your Energy Hour primarily based on the life circumstances and the whole lot. So I actually, I do know that you just deal with enterprise house owners, but in addition this system goes approach far the enterprise. You already know, it’s not going to alter what you are promoting. It’s going to actually go and alter all areas of your life. So I’d say, like, as a aspect impact positively self belief.
Sam Laura Brown
Self belief is such a vital factor that we work on and speak about quite a bit in PGSD, and it’s positively one of many unintended effects of energy planning as properly. And the clear relaxation and development purpose is that to have the ability to obtain your development purpose with out placing heaps of strain on your self, and to have the ability to energy plan, you do must learn to belief your self and how you can have a significantly better relationship with your self. And simply as you have been saying that, I used to be fascinated by how our perfectionist brains are, like you ought to be doing extra and you ought to be extra productive, and it’s nonetheless not ok. And like, even when we’re productive and we’re succeeding in life, it’s depressing to have that internal dialog. And my dialog isn’t like, Oh, my God, you’re wonderful. And like, it’s by no means going to love, it’s not ok, however it’s dramatically totally different, and it’s simply a lot nicer to be with myself now than it was earlier than. And I can really, like, have my very own again, and it’s simpler to do scary issues and to place myself on the market, as a result of I do know I’m not going to be a bitch to myself on the opposite finish of it. So yeah, self belief is is the whole lot for perfectionists. That’s the work, in the end, that we’re doing with perfectionism. So thanks a lot for sharing the whole lot that you’ve. Is there something you need to say any final phrases to somebody who is considering signing up for PGSD and becoming a member of us inside.
Eliska Krajickova
I feel that like very first thing is that that is actually not this system that, like says one thing on gross sales web page after which it’s simply doesn’t ship. So when you learn one thing what resonates, you possibly can make certain that it’s that you’re paying, and you’re going to get the factor you want within the electronic mail or no matter you’re studying or listening. And in addition, when you would have the ability to, like Pinky promise that you desire to do the work, and you’ll present up, after which you’ll fail, and you’ll be fantastic with that. It’s laborious, I do know, however it it’s a apply it’s worthwhile to study. Then I can actually, like, you possibly can contact me, and I can, like, promise that I offers you your a refund if it’s not gonna work. As a result of I simply
Sam Laura Brown
You pay them.
Eliska Krajickova
I simply know that it’s gonna work. Like if you’ll present up.
Sam Laura Brown
A refund assure from Eliska.
Eliska Krajickova
I simply know that it’s gonna work. If you’ll present up, if you’ll do the facility planning, not as soon as, not twice, like you’ll do it continuously, you’ll write the evaluations in, I don’t know. I don’t care if it’s in your diary or if it’s in discussion board, and you’ll do it as it’s in this system, and with all these helps, and you will get in pgsd, there’s, like, zero probability to fail, like there’s zero probability to not make the cash again in a really brief time period. So I’m that assured. And there’s, like, at this second, I don’t have each any single motive why shouldn’t you be a part of and if the one factor that’s stopping somebody now, it’s actually the funding. And I can say, I hear you. It was plenty of conversations at dwelling, as a result of my husband is basically not into self growing and schooling, and I actually was like, I’m gonna make it in my enterprise after which make investments it. You don’t need to, like, be concerned in it. So it was not straightforward for me as properly, and it was my first massive funding.
However it’s simply, I don’t know, I really feel prefer it. I made it again in like, a month, you realize? After which, as I stated to start with, there’s such an enormous transformation as an individual, and one thing was additionally taking place within you, like, how are you dwelling with your self, how you aren’t like, overwhelmed, how you aren’t being imply to your self, how one can take pleasure in different individuals round and speak about various things and simply enterprise. Then I feel that the actually, the tech, the value tag is like, not existent, as a result of there’s such an enormous change and transformation, in case you are prepared to indicate up, that the value is basically it mustn’t even be the objection, as a result of actually, the whole lot was stated wherever it’s, it feels like what you’re going to get within the PGSD.
Sam Laura Brown
Thanks a lot.
Eliska Krajickova
This was not pre deliberate. No, positively not. I feel, like, the entire episode, this one was nice for me to replicate and actually, like, cease within the second and see, like, how far I’ve come and the place I’d be I wouldn’t have in all probability the second enterprise, you realize, I stated after the primary one, I imply the child, not the enterprise. I stated, I’m by no means gonna do it once more in my entire life. Motherhood is tough. Enterprise is straightforward. I’m not gonna go for it anytime quickly. After which, due to PGSD, I launched the second enterprise. My husband is CEO, Director. Within the one company firm, and now, due to my second enterprise, he is ready to stop the job. He’ll keep at dwelling with me. I shall be working half time. He’ll help me as a keep dwelling dad, and that may be by no means attainable. And I stated, if you are able to do it for me, we will have a second one. In case you can’t, and I’ve to remain once more full time, Mother, I’m not gonna go there. So, you realize, whenever you see the impact, the unintended effects it has in your life, just like the One Small Change of like, becoming a member of the PGSD, like, I don’t know the place I’d been now, and I don’t need to know. I don’t both like, need to suppose how depressing perhaps I’d be nonetheless feeling with myself. And actually the massive half that ought to be talked about is the internal emotions you may have with your self, and the way are you dwelling with your self day-after-day, and the way you present up for your self and for the individuals round and that’s the transformation that’s actually for me is, you realize, priceless.
Sam Laura Brown
Wonderful! Properly, thanks a lot for sharing all of that, Eliska, I actually recognize it, and we’ll hyperlink up within the present notes, the place anybody can go to Eliska for a refund to PGSD…
Eliska Krajickova
No however you possibly can come for and have a selected query if in case you have one thing otherwise you nonetheless have some objection, and also you don’t need to ask Sam, and also you need somebody who’s like in third individual out of her Enterprise, then positively you possibly can contact me, and I’ll clarify very quick how it is best to be a part of and why, why it is best to be a part of now and never not postpone and procrastinate of the choice.
