Alright everyone, welcome back to another episode of the This Is Blast podcast. I'm your host Tyler Wagner. Today I have Phyllis Williams with us. She is an author, so welcome to the show, Phyllis.
Thank you for having me.
Of course, thanks for joining us, and we'll dive in. The first question I have for you, Phyllis, is what is the best story from your life that has an underlying valuable message?
The best story that has an underlying message for me is my words matter. They matter whether they are spoken or whether they are written.
And what is the most valuable piece of information we should know that's within your expertise or industry?
As far as expertise in my industry, I believe people should know that organization is very important and collaboration is very important with being an author and a workshop facilitator.
And what is your best piece of overall business advice? So not necessarily industry-specific.
My best advice is to build authentic relationships with people who's cheering for you.
And if you could give your younger self one piece of advice, what would that be?
I would give my younger self the advice to keep going and know it gets better.
And in your opinion, what's the key to happiness?
The key to happiness is peace. Some people believe it's material possessions. Some people may believe it's status. However, I believe the key to happiness is peace that surpasses all understanding and comes from a higher being.
And what is the best book that you've read and what was the number one thing you learned from that?
My favorite book is called One Word That Will Change Your Life. I learned that it's an applicable book and it gave me the courage to use my voice and grow spiritually.
And what is your favorite quote and why?
My favorite quote, not to sound conceited or self-absorbed, is actually from myself, and it says, "We shall excel and not just exist." I love that.
