In a world that's so fast-paced, we need to slow down and nurture strong connections with the people around us. We need to be willing to engage with people in and out of our circle, but first, we must connect with ourselves.   How are strong connections built? What does it mean to be genuinely curious? How does building these connections help us when it comes to business and referrals?   In this episode, Certified High Performance Coach(TM) and real estate agent Grant Muller joins me to talk about the importance of having human connections and how it helped change his life.   We also talk about his book Top Of Heart: How A New Approach To Business Saved My Life, And Could Save Yours Too and the experiences he had to work through to get where he is today.   In business and sales relationships, we focus too much sometimes on being in front of people rather than with them. -Grant Muller   Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode   - Real vs. relevant Being real and authentic has never been more important.
