How to Make the Case for What You Want with Kimberly Guilfoyle

Want to build a life and business around doing what you love? Me too. Let’s connect.

A lot of us in  The School of Greatness have big dreams.

We work hard. We hustle. We plan ahead.

And yet when it comes down to the moment of truth, it’s not enough to dream big, hustle, and make plans.

You still will have moments where you have to make the case to someone else as to why you are the best person for the job, relationship, opportunity, etc.

Today’s guest is a master at this.

Kimberly Guilfoyle is a powerhouse woman, and among many accolades, she is the co-host of The Five on Fox News, a bestselling author, a former public defender, and a mother.

I was so inspired by her energy (I’m thinking we share the same drive because we’re both Pisces) that I had to keep asking her questions about where she learned to be so confident.

Kimberly told me some amazing stories of what her parents taught her growing up, how she has lived through huge challenges, and some of the key moments in her career and life when she has made a winning case for getting to the next level.

Get ready to put your life into hustle mode as you listen to Kimberly Guilfoyle lay it out on Episode 192.
