Interview with Braith Bamkin
Braith Bamkin is an expert at making connections. On today\u2019s episode we discuss Intention, Purpose, and Connection.
He highlights a couple of key questions for growing your business: Who do you want to do business with, and why?
We talked about so much on this quick hour, some of the key take-aways were:
\u2022 Care enough to help others first
\u25cb Doing so engages the law of reciprocity (but don\u2019t do something in order to get back - that
just means you\u2019re coming from a place of taking, not giving)
\u2022 If you want to feel better about yourself, do something nice for someone else.
\u2022 Being \u201cbusy\u201d shuts down opportunity
\u2022 Set a \u201ccalling hour\u201d on your calendar; open your contacts, scroll, and call. Reach out with no agenda!
\u2022 When you\u2019re clear about your avatar, who you\u2019d like to do business with, it makes calling easier. \u2022 Connection happens when you\u2019re living in your purpose, have intention, and come from a place of personal values.
\u2022 Analysis paralysis happens when people are trying to decide the \u201cright\u201d course of action. (Hint: just take a step and course correct from there.)
\u2022 If you\u2019re feeling \u201coff\u201d from your business, write a love letter to it. That\u2019ll land you in gratitude and you\u2019ll feel better all around.

Podcaster\u2019s note: During this podcast which was recorded in August of 2023, we mention the fires in Hawaii and reflect briefly on other disasters.
The devastation that resulted from the fires in Hawaii turned out to be one of the state\u2019s worst disasters (if not the worst recorded disaster) and our hearts go out to those affected. Though a very brief portion of the conversation, we want to honor those who bravely fought the fires and offer condolences for those who lost so much.
