What’s a person worth?

If we based the answer on our own self assessments, not much.

And then we bring that “not much” feeling everywhere we go, including work. Where we’re expected to influence people, lead people inspire people. And we wonder why we struggle.

“Not much” has a scent. So strong it can actually travel through Zoom screens.. It’s also contagious. Infecting everyone who gets a whiff with a bit more “not much” than they already bring to the table.

It’s tough to do useful, meaningful things when you’re swimming in the “not much” soup. If only we could add some ingredients to create a delightfully hearty “more than enough” stew.

Endre Hoffman (aka The Doctor of Self Worth) is the man with those ingredients. All you have to do is a little time travel to get what you need.

That’s what NLP (neurolinguistic programming) is all about, Endre’s primary tool for helping folks see how good they really are. A reframing of our life story that allows us to release the dickhead voice that’s been holding us back and create a new voice that says things like, “you’re alright, man” and “you’re actually kinda smart, lady.”

Endre had his own, long, exhaustive journey through dozens of countries and over a hundred thousand dollars before he finally found the ingredients to turn his life around, after years of childhood trauma and a struggling marriage kept him stuck in the “not much” story.

Now, he helps people do the same. From high-powered execs to first-time entrepreneurs. His work helps people get out of the victim mindset and see clearly (often for the first time) just how much agency they have.

Endre is a cool dude with an inspiring mission to impact over one million lives. I like the moxie.

If you’re an introvert, you’re going to love Rhonda George-Denniston. You’ll also love her if you’re an extrovert, because she’s awesome. But man, she really sees introverts in a way that the world needs.

Rhonda is the Chief Learning & Development Officer at TBWA\Worldwide. She also founded Curiosity Connections, an “un-networking” space that brings people together in a way where everyone feels welcome and seen. With none of the awkward BS of typical networking events.

Her own experience as an introvert has created a blueprint for others to follow. She started at TBWA as an executive assistant and created her path at every step since.

How’d she do it?

🐱 She showed up. Building a reputation for reliability and getting things done.

🐱 She identified gaps. “Why aren’t we doing this?” And said, “wait, I can do this.”

🐱 She perfected her pitch. In deck-crazy industries like advertising, the way forward is through PowerPoint (or Keynote, or Google, or Canva, or whatever the kids are using these days).

The programs she and her teams have created invite others to follow her lead. To create opportunities, find their own path and to show up in ways that allow them to shine.

Rhonda shines brightly in this conversation. And she introduced me to a term that I absolutely love—“thought life.” Even though mine can be kinda scary at times.
