In this week's solo debrief episode of Entrepreneurs Rising, Carl Taylor shares his biggest takeaways from his conversation with James Kemp, a fierce proponent of the “sovereign consultant” business model and known for his skills in crafting compelling offers. Carl reflects on James’ view on leveraging the three modalities — consulting, mentoring, and coaching — and why it’s a great idea to flexibly utilize these as skills, not just identities. He also goes back to their discussion about painful past relationship experiences, the value of clear and truthful communication, and the different paths they took that allowed them to become the astute, more resilient men they are today. If you’re keen on living the life you’ve always wanted, this episode will help you get clear on the right direction to achieving your goals.
