Reposition Your Strengths to Create Your Dream Business with Roy Bell (Ep26)
Get ready for a powerful conversation about why letting go of the business you think you should have IS THE WAY to the business that is meant for you.
Last week I started my series on Owning Your Strengths, and in my previous episode, I explained why it's such a challenge for consultants and coaches to see, let alone own, their strengths.
I'm super excited to have Roy Bell on my show today as he knows first-hand about these challenges and overcoming them.
When Roy and I started working on his business build and brand several years ago, at the time, it made sense for Roy to leverage his process and system expertise as the foundation of his consulting business. Still, he had a tough time pulling the trigger on this business model. His heart wasn't in it, and he had some personal life issues screaming for his attention.
He and I lost touch for a while until I came across him again on LinkedIn and immediately saw something completely different in Roy. His language, his energy, and his confidence were so different! When we worked together, he was NOT a fan of marketing, and now he was out there doing it. So what changed?
In this episode, you'll hear:
- How Roy discovered himself to discover his business
- How Roy learned that he had to apply the skills he used in business to himself
- The "ah-hah" moment that led to his brand clarity and positioning
- The story behind his business and how it fuels him to make micro changes in organizations and people that then change the world
Roy continues to use his process and system engineering mind in a whole new way in his coaching business, and I can't wait for you to hear about it!
Where to dive in:
[5:19] Why reactive mode takes away energy from being creative.
[8:00] How Roy applied his process mind to his inner world. Hear what gave him this "Ah-hah" moment.

[19:45] Hear why Roy thinks we can be the student and the teacher simultaneously in our lives.
