About Bryn Johnson
Bryn spent 20 years in Corporate America as a passionate leader of high-performing teams and endless multi-million dollar projects.
One of her secrets to success? Her ability to take complicated- often impossibly overwhelming- information and quickly make it simple. And she does it all with post-it notes!
She is now bringing that same passion for planning and collaborating along with her laser-focused implementation strategies to her clients and broader on-line community.
And if you really want to have some fun- discuss networking, social media or coffee with her… she’ll talk your ear off!
Bryn’s Success Tips
Stop analyzing and listen to the message because chances are you already know the answer.
I believe that God speaks to me through other people which means I cannot isolate myself as an entrepreneur which could be easy to do.
Make a strategy. Make a plan.
Keep your macro and micro goals in mind- too much focus on either will send you off track.

It always reminds me not to “quit before the miracle” ~anonymous

Kate’s Coaching Suggestion
1) Kate suggests that we examine our lives to discern where we are going it alone—and why. Do we have to go it alone or can we delegate the job in ways that allow others to shine and that allow us to learn new ways of accomplishing the task?
2) She also suggests that we review our connections and contacts to discover who might be our “Tontos” in the work place and/or at home. We should then evaluate their strengths and discuss with them how we can collaborate to accomplish more with less effort.
