Empowering Entrepreneurs By Increasing Their Wealth And Productivity With Tandy Pryor
Brett:
I'm excited to bring on our next guest, who for more than a decade has helped her clients and audiences transform their lives, live more joyfully, and make more money. She empowers them to use their home or office space as a vehicle for making radical shifts in their lives and increasing wealth, productivity, and peace of mind. Her intuitive advice and insights on how to set clear boundaries, rediscover personal power and heal past experiences and fears that can stop you have been called raw, transformative, hilarious, honest, refreshing, innovative, spot-on, and spookily accurate. Okay, hopefully, I'm saying that correctly. And she is here to share with us her story and some of her wisdom. Okay. So please welcome to the show, Tandy Pryor. Tandy, how are you doing?
Tandy:
I'm good. I'm good. I'm very happy to be here. Thank you.
Brett:
Excellent. Excellent. Well, thanks for being here. We're excited to dive in. And so would you give our listeners a little bit about your background and your current focus?
Tandy:
Yes. Wow. It was a long road to get here as a coach, but I started this coaching business at 50. And I'm almost nine years in now, and it's been quite a journey of personal development. And what I started noticing after I started my business was that I was attracting financial advisors and wealth managers. And I didn't intentionally do that, but there's something about the work that I do, and it just seems like a fit for the work that they do.
Brett:
Excellent. So a shift at 50 to coach, and you've been coaching and helping financial advisors since then. And so walk us through a little bit about who you are, Tandy, and how you help those financial advisors. But before you get there, I want you to connect something for us. I think we're all given certain God-given gifts and these gifts are given to us to bless others. So what is that one gift that you believe you were given? Think back to when you were maybe a kid or a teenager or early in your career. What was that one gift that you were given, Tandy, and how does that connect to how you help financial advisors today?
Tandy:
Ooh, that's a good question. I know what it is, it's intuition. And I had it, and I think I kind of denied it. And then in my 30s, I had a near-death experience and it could no longer be denied. I worked in lots of different entrepreneurial things. I did real estate and continued to take coaching training. And there was just something about wrapping all of that up and starting this business at 50. And I would definitely say my secret sauce is helping advisors and entrepreneurs see what they can't see for themselves, like blind spots, and helping with breakthroughs around set points and earning. And the number one thing I help people with is boundaries.
Brett:
Excellent. So was this something here ... I don't know if your brothers or sisters or your parents or whoever else, teachers, growing up, always said, hey, you had this intuition ability to see things that other people weren't seeing? I mean, is that kind of in the theme? Is that what you're saying?
Tandy:
It was. And I think after a while when people would laugh, I just, I hid it. And I think I just kept it to myself, but I had imaginary friends that weren't ... to me, they were there. And they didn't make fun of it when I was really young, but as I got older. And it is just a ... it's a gift, I guess, to know situations and to be able to evaluate people and situations. But when you're a teenager, it doesn't necessarily fit in with everything that's going on. So, I think the big wake-up call was in my 30s, but it had always been there. And I was an adoptee. I'm an adoptee, even though I was only a month old. So I think that partly search for self and search for the truth ... I had a wonderful life, but there were always unanswered questions, because I was part of the closed adoption system, even though I was only four weeks, eight weeks old, something like that. So that's a big formative thing in, I think, honing my skill for what I do now.
Brett:
Fascinating. And now walk us through maybe the top frustration. Let's connect it now to the financial advisors and those you help out with. Walk us through maybe the top one or two, three things that most financial advisors have blind spots too, and then talk about how you help them to uncover those.
Tandy:
Ooh. So I think the number one thing that I'm seeing that really ties most of the frustrations together is a lack of boundaries. They may be making a lot of money. They may be successful in what our culture says is successful, but they're constantly overpromising and under-delivering. And there are always threads. I'm an overall coach. I look at the personal and the professional because they're intimately connected.
So, if you don't have boundaries in one area, it's going to come over to the other area. If you're overdelivering to clients and you're not delegating, it will show up in every area of your life, which causes a lot of frustration. And it might sound oh, well, boundaries. Big deal. Well, it's a huge, huge deal to the quality of life. Money. That isn't all of it. And sometimes people are not making enough money and that can still be the issue. I've seen it both ways. Like one of my very first clients, she had to get rid of a lot of clients that were needy, so to speak. And she didn't make any money off of the work that she was doing. So as soon as she got rid of the clients that were not profitable, even though she loved them, she had to make some really clear decisions. Then she made room for the ideal clients to come in, which is what it's all about. And being specific around that, too. Who your ideal client is.
