How to Be "The CEO of You" - Richard "RB" Botto on The Heart of Show Business Podcast

3 years ago

Happy Thursday Creative Army!

You’ve heard me say it a thousand times, no matter what your goals as a creative or an entrepreneur, you are the CEO of You Inc.

Recently, I had the pleasure of being a guest of my dear friend and mega producer, Alexia Melocchi's, uplifting and enlightening podcast, The Heart of Show Business.

We discussed many topics I believe will help inspire and motivate you including how you’re much more in control than you think you are, how to make your own luck, how to cut out the noise, how to make each and every day a positive one and much more.

Drop me a note in the comments below and let me know what you thought. Enjoy!

I look forward to listening and learning RB. Being the CEO of You should be one of our top priorities. Knowing your SWOTs (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) and your Subject Matter Expertise is the greatest gift to give yourself and on National Mentoring Day.

I really enjoyed this interview, RB. Especially about cutting off broad-based social media. So much negativity out there -- you can really fall down a rabbit hole if you aren't careful. Plus, your productivity increases tenfold!

The CEO of You Inc...nailed it! This is so true. I've organized my writing career as razor-sharp as my other businesses. The. journeys are parallel. The core of each day is to make the moments count because making it or breaking it is essentially up to you.
