The Heart of G.O.: How to use grit and optimism to get what you want, and inspire others along the way.

About the Heart of GO: 

Smiling and gritting your teeth look very similar, and so do grit and optimism. The Heart of GO is the climber’s guide to getting to the top with a smile. In this talk, Liz shares the G.O. method, a strategy for taking daily steps, knocking out goals and reaching big visions. 

The GO method uses a climbing metaphor to underscore the journey to personal and professional success. There are four key elements: Peak Vision, The Climber’s Attitude, Empowering Planning and Joyful Expectations. 

The audience goes through a formula for packing for the climb, building a team and planning for powerful and life-changing events. Liz also teaches them how to mitigate unavoidable challenges and deal with discouraging thoughts while placing a premium on self care. 

No one climbs alone, so Liz finishes with a charge for inspiration, how to keep the vision in front of the team, and inspire them with detailed planning and optimistic communication. 

Liz uses humor and vivid stories to keep the audience engaged. They leave with a tailored success map and set of affirmations to use as soon as they leave their seat.
