13
00:01:48.340 --> 00:02:06.859
Dr Steve: So, Regina, welcome. That was, I got to take a break. That was a long intro. But clearly you've got a really interesting background. We could probably spend an hour just talking about every place you've been. But let's start with your book. Okay, the title is provocative. Live in my freaking, amazing life
14
00:02:07.140 --> 00:02:22.619
Dr Steve: subtitle, create the life that's perfect for you anywhere in the world. Tell us a little about yourself. Tell us, maybe, about your backstory. But let's let's let's maybe focus on what created what? What was your inspiration for this book.
15
00:02:23.310 --> 00:02:26.646
Regina: Yeah, thank you so much for having me on today.
16
00:02:26.980 --> 00:02:31.059
Dr Steve: My pleasure, my pleasure. I'm happy to learn, and let's hear what you got to say.
17
00:02:31.410 --> 00:02:54.819
Regina: Thanks for the invite. So yes, my freaking, amazing life started in a tiny little village in Bavaria, Germany. I grew up on a farm. So 2 lineages are very hardworking farmers. You know the typical thing that many of us learn as children. You gotta. You gotta work really hard to to get somewhere, which.
18
00:02:54.990 --> 00:03:12.639
Regina: in fact, is a lie. But you know we can also expand on that, maybe at some point. So my, what really pushed me out into the world was my adventurous spirit, which was more in the lineage of my dad's side.
19
00:03:13.040 --> 00:03:36.149
Regina: and all that, despite me being the shyest kid in the village right, but I had to really just overcome this shyness, and step into my confident self at some point, to be able to move to different places by myself to find new friends and to create a new life in all these different places. So
20
00:03:36.270 --> 00:04:02.290
Regina: it started with Munich. After my studies, I started working at a global consulting firm, and that gave me an opportunity to move to Madrid, Spain, where soon I was promoted into a leadership role. I stayed there 7 years. Also learned Portuguese, because I did a lot of work with Portugal, helped the company open to offices in both Portugal and later Sao, Paulo, Brazil.
21
00:04:02.490 --> 00:04:11.390
Regina: and from there, you know, I I moved to Argentina for a bit. I've lived in Argentina twice I've lived in Brazil twice.
22
00:04:11.660 --> 00:04:23.209
Regina: and in both countries also as a business owner of a brick and mortar business that I founded in in these places. I don't have that anymore, but I had it in the past.
23
00:04:23.710 --> 00:04:51.900
Regina: And now my business transform your performance, which is a coaching, speaking, and training business, is located and based in New York City. Although currently I'm with a foot in France and a foot in the Us. Always back and forth. And lately I've also done more work in Africa on the African continent, and when I say Africa, it's, of course, a huge continent. And so mostly in East
24
00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:56.269
Regina: Africa, West Africa, and the southern part of Africa.
25
00:04:57.260 --> 00:05:02.404
Dr Steve: All this, and, amazingly enough, Regina is still only 25 years old.
26
00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:04.310
Regina: Yeah, sure.
27
00:05:04.310 --> 00:05:20.709
Dr Steve: It's packed a lot into a short amount. Well, clearly, this is, I mean, this is an impressive pedigree. I'm jealous just to your language skills English. I'm pretty good at. But besides that, I know, like 3 words in about 20 languages. But let's let's talk about your book. Okay.
28
00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:40.260
Dr Steve: great title, love, the title in fact, I found Regina as a potential guest through a common community, that we're in which is people looking to be on podcasts, people hoping, podcast and I love the title of the book. And that's 1 of the reasons that made the connection living my freaking amazing life, keeping it kind of family oriented. There.
29
00:05:40.430 --> 00:05:56.290
Dr Steve: let's talk about the book. What's the book about? I mean, briefly, what's the book about? Who should read it? What would they get out of it. What's your hope? When somebody reads your book, I assume it's to inspire people, at least on some level. So let's get into the book.
30
00:05:56.690 --> 00:06:03.721
Regina: Absolutely because I do a lot of leadership coaching professionally. It's also about leadership.
31
00:06:04.310 --> 00:06:15.150
Regina: It's a little bit of a different leadership book. It's about the leadership of self and others. Right? So it's also about the the way we lead our lives
32
00:06:15.150 --> 00:06:38.329
Regina: and ourselves. And you said it right, Stephen. It is about inspiration, about inspiring people really to live life on their own terms, because oftentimes we follow a path that we think we are supposed to follow. Maybe we were, unconsciously.
33
00:06:38.580 --> 00:07:04.969
Regina: you know, slipping into it at some point, and we don't know how to get out of it now that we are already in it, and maybe we cannot find the courage to do that. And as someone who has started a new life in many different locations, sometimes absolutely from scratch like, for example, last time in in New York City in 2012, when I started my current business right when I founded it, and when I started building it.
34
00:07:05.230 --> 00:07:14.259
Regina: and I had just gone through a very interesting and difficult phase in in Brazil.
35
00:07:14.370 --> 00:07:37.999
Regina: where, because of a fraudulent business partner, I had well, I had lost my brick and mortar business, so to speak. I had to make a decision to really close it down, which was a very tough decision at the time. It cost me a lot of things. It cost me a lot of money in the 1st place, and also my confidence at the time and my self-esteem, and I had to rebuild that from Scratch.
36
00:07:38.000 --> 00:08:00.970
Regina: And these stories, and also many, many adventures, some crazy ones go went eventually. Now last year into my book, living my freaking, amazing life. I already show the English version. I also translated it to Portuguese, because I thought maybe some other friends in Brazil and in Portugal would like to read it too, and they might find themselves in it.
37
00:08:01.190 --> 00:08:14.969
Regina: some of them. And this is how the book came about. The book had been started a few years ago. However, it was also sitting there for a while, because I wasn't quite sure
38
00:08:15.130 --> 00:08:40.230
Regina: what to make the main focus of it. I didn't just want it to be a biography, I mean, you know, who wants to read another biography right? It should be really meaningful to the reader and give them value in terms of yes, inspiration, and to also leadership lessons that I have learned through these real life stories.
39
00:08:40.809 --> 00:08:54.499
Dr Steve: So it's based on experience that you've had. But it would be broader in the sense that people can learn from some of the positive, and maybe some of the challenging things that have happened to you if you could distill it down.
40
00:08:54.709 --> 00:08:56.539
Dr Steve: So let's say one thing
41
00:08:56.719 --> 00:09:24.879
Dr Steve: like, what's the singular core message that you're trying to like. Leadership's important, right? But then that can mean different things to different people, I suppose. But but in your mind what what I read the book I get done, I'm thinking. Wow! I just learned, Lank, what would you want that answer to be? And I'm sure it could be different. But what do you think? The single, you know somebody saying Watch! I'd get Regina's book. I'm going to learn about something. What would that ultimately be?
42
00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:40.899
Regina: Well, 1st of all, that no one can empower you but yourself. So you are the one who decides what you want, what you desire what you want your life to be like, and you alone have the power to bring that about.
43
00:09:41.030 --> 00:09:41.510
Dr Steve: Hmm.
44
00:09:41.510 --> 00:09:56.750
Regina: Okay, it's up to you to choose that freedom also, at the same time, to choose the responsibility that comes with freedom and the other way around, because once you take a hundred percent responsibility, you will also
45
00:09:57.400 --> 00:10:06.960
Regina: be able to enjoy greater freedom right like when I take responsibility for all that I have experienced.
46
00:10:07.770 --> 00:10:21.549
Regina: and I really see my role in it in its in its full sense, like, I have created everything that I have lived in my life so far, even the parts that I would rather have not created
47
00:10:21.880 --> 00:10:31.879
Regina: right. Once we realize the power in this. That's when we can really create that freaking, amazing life. And that doesn't mean that there are not ups and downs.
48
00:10:31.880 --> 00:10:32.280
Dr Steve: Oh! Oh!
49
00:10:32.280 --> 00:10:39.040
Regina: We will experience those, all of us. I have not met one person who has not experienced that.
50
00:10:39.390 --> 00:10:41.070
Dr Steve: So so yeah, go ahead.
51
00:10:41.070 --> 00:10:45.279
Dr Steve: So the the this is a question here. What does it mean
52
00:10:45.550 --> 00:11:09.740
Dr Steve: to lead oneself through life, or to live a freaking, amazing life. You're kind of. You're almost creating like a verb to live a freaking creative life. Right? So how do you? Obviously people are taking responsibility for what they do, based on what you're saying. They're they're enjoying themselves. They're hopefully having business, success, personal success. How do you envision this? What's the kind of thing that gets everybody excited here.
53
00:11:10.370 --> 00:11:19.529
Regina: But especially as business owners as entrepreneurs. There are moments when we feel like freaking out. So how can we turn this freaking out moment into a freaking.
54
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:20.730
Regina: amazing.
55
00:11:20.730 --> 00:11:23.260
Dr Steve: The entrepreneurs out there. Has that ever happened to you?
56
00:11:24.460 --> 00:11:39.100
Dr Steve: Oh, oh, I just hurt my ear all the yeses! No, it is challenging, and life is challenging. I mean, if you're a student, if you're an entrepreneur, if you're a business owner, if you're an employee, there's challenges all the time right, and there's there's there's rewards, too. But anyway, keep going. Keep going.
57
00:11:39.370 --> 00:12:03.820
Regina: Yeah. So it's about how to turn that, you know. Sometimes we say how to turn a challenge into an opportunity. Well, I like to say how to turn that freaking out into a freaking, amazing moment, because because there's value in everything. And you know 1 1 thing that I have learned that, I think is can really make a huge difference.
58
00:12:03.950 --> 00:12:05.969
Regina: When we stop
59
00:12:06.320 --> 00:12:16.729
Regina: asking the question, why is this happening to me? Or why is this happening to me again. Even worse. Right then.
60
00:12:17.070 --> 00:12:20.280
Regina: you know, then, and we replace it with.
61
00:12:20.610 --> 00:12:26.789
Regina: how is this happening for me? That's when everything changes.
62
00:12:27.280 --> 00:12:32.989
Regina: and that's when we can actually see the opportunity in a challenge.
63
00:12:32.990 --> 00:12:40.289
Dr Steve: So you're sort of shifting a something that is causing you to do something into something that would motivate you to do something.
64
00:12:40.900 --> 00:12:45.990
Regina: Yes, and it's actually not causing me. Somehow, I created it. So I'm gonna 1st of all take that perspective.
65
00:12:45.990 --> 00:12:50.829
Regina: So you somehow times created unconsciously, of course.
66
00:12:50.830 --> 00:12:51.330
Dr Steve: You know.
67
00:12:51.330 --> 00:12:59.010
Regina: Of course, eventually, we want to get to a point where we can more consciously create the reality. We really.
68
00:12:59.010 --> 00:13:03.930
Dr Steve: Love it, love it. So this is about, in a sense, personal self-empowerment.
69
00:13:04.300 --> 00:13:22.150
Dr Steve: clarity of vision. And in turn it. This is how you get your freaking, amazing life, my guest today, Rebecca Huber. Rebecca's in New York. But this is like her 58th stop on a long journey around the world. This is the make the great experience podcast your host, Dr. Stephen Green.
70
00:13:22.260 --> 00:13:24.300
Dr Steve: Regina, has written a book.
71
00:13:24.490 --> 00:13:29.559
Dr Steve: I've written a book with a title that I love, love, love called my freaking, amazing life
72
00:13:29.770 --> 00:13:37.940
Dr Steve: create life that's perfect for you anywhere in the world. So I think this is a question a lot of people would want to know the answer to
73
00:13:38.240 --> 00:13:43.180
Dr Steve: how does someone achieve greater freedom and inner peace.
74
00:13:43.450 --> 00:13:57.439
Dr Steve: which maybe is the kind of pot at the end of the rainbow of our whole journey. Right is feeling like you've accomplished something, and you got something to show for all your work and all your sweat and tears. So how do you answer that question?
75
00:13:58.170 --> 00:14:03.249
Regina: Well again, you know it. It boils down to that to not being a victim.
76
00:14:03.550 --> 00:14:20.620
Regina: really, you know, determine what you truly desire. Define what you'd like that to look like. Write your vision that's definitely helpful, take steps toward it, but also deal with what might be in the way of it.
77
00:14:21.170 --> 00:14:33.820
Regina: That's often not just external things most of the time. Actually, what's keeping us from creating and experience? What we want and desire is the unconscious stuff.
78
00:14:34.170 --> 00:14:45.869
Regina: And everybody's heard about limiting beliefs. But what we often don't think of are these suppressed and undigested emotions that we never care to fully feel so they could
79
00:14:46.070 --> 00:14:48.030
Regina: finally get transmuted.
80
00:14:48.310 --> 00:15:18.049
Regina: you know. So that's really, really important. That's something that a lot of people don't even think about. And I didn't for a long time I was constantly working on yes, also emotions, but on a more superficial level and on limiting beliefs. But I left this part out, and when I started really going in there. And that's a longer longer conversation of what that exactly, ideally looks like. That's when things started shifting again for me.
81
00:15:18.050 --> 00:15:37.770
Dr Steve: I work with a lot of entrepreneurs. I work with a lot of students, and sometimes you have to focus on what's important at the moment like, if you're a student, you have a test. You got to deal with that. If you're an entrepreneur, you got to go out and get clients you have to deliver service. So some of these things you're talking about are happening on a much more basal
82
00:15:38.336 --> 00:15:42.373
Dr Steve: kind of internal level. If if I can call it that
83
00:15:42.950 --> 00:15:49.549
Dr Steve: but but it the so in your coaching. Well, 1st of all, if people are interested, how do they get your book?
84
00:15:50.140 --> 00:16:05.899
Regina: Yeah, 1st of all, yep, where where people can find it most easily is on Amazon. And then, of course, also on my on my website. There is a book page. My website is transformyourperformance.com. And there's all the relevant information on there.
85
00:16:05.900 --> 00:16:19.829
Dr Steve: Okay, so somebody's interested whether it's in English or Portuguese, I guess they go to Amazon, where every everything is sold. So why not your book, my book, too. By the way, folks, my book, and or your What was your site again? Transform your life.
86
00:16:19.830 --> 00:16:22.120
Regina: Transform yourperformance.com.
87
00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:25.220
Dr Steve: That's already performance. Sorry. Okay. Next question.
88
00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:28.140
Dr Steve: how does someone, how do we
89
00:16:28.530 --> 00:16:44.769
Dr Steve: access our true unlimited power? Because maybe that's the end game here, right? We've inner peace already. We got freedom. We got the ability to direct what we want because we've cleared out all these deep rooted things hopefully through your coaching or through your vision.
90
00:16:44.920 --> 00:16:51.520
Dr Steve: And then what's next? Through unlimited power, and then you can get stuff done. So how? How do we get to that point?
91
00:16:51.840 --> 00:17:18.060
Regina: Well, it's actually all related. Life is a holistic phenomenon, right? And also we cannot separate out mindset and our emotions from the rest, because you could sometimes actually try to sell your stuff for 24 h, and you could actually do all sorts of sales training and never, ever get anywhere with it. If you are not dealing with what you have
92
00:17:18.619 --> 00:17:32.199
Regina: internally going on, and if that's stopping you, you know that's where a lot of frustration comes from for people when they? That's when they actually start saying, Why is this happening to me again? Why is it working for everyone else, but not me.
93
00:17:32.360 --> 00:17:41.866
Regina: And these are not really useful questions to ask. The better question is, okay, how is this happening for me? Or you know,
94
00:17:42.410 --> 00:17:55.450
Regina: what can I do to get unstuck, and maybe that is taking a moment sometimes not just a moment, to work on this unconscious stuff that's blocking us.
95
00:17:55.570 --> 00:18:06.579
Regina: which sometimes we don't know how to do. And we need an expert for. But there's a lot of information also online about this right? So one way of
96
00:18:07.360 --> 00:18:13.979
Regina: moving into our power is to get fully present.
97
00:18:14.380 --> 00:18:24.090
Regina: How do we do that, for example, by breathing ourselves into presence? Right? That's also where we find inner peace.
98
00:18:24.220 --> 00:18:48.839
Regina: It's but it's not only about that. It's also where we find our power, you know, being in the present moment, which is the only moment that exists anyway, the now, because everything else is in our minds, the past, the future, you know, the past is often in our minds in the form of regret, sadness, etc. Sometimes joy, that's nice, right? But also a lot of the other stuff that we really don't want more
99
00:18:48.840 --> 00:18:54.659
Regina: of. And then the future is in our minds in the form of concerns, fears, worries.
100
00:18:54.700 --> 00:18:58.319
Regina: and that's not useful for success.
101
00:18:58.820 --> 00:19:13.810
Regina: and especially also not for the fulfillment that most of us want beyond success. So it's really important to find that power in the present moment. That is where you can move out of fear
102
00:19:13.930 --> 00:19:17.440
Regina: and into your inner.
103
00:19:17.610 --> 00:19:33.050
Regina: infinite power. It's actually not limited. And that's also where you find that freedom, by the way, at the same time, we often neglect the these things as Oh, that's not so important. I'll do that when I get to it. Oh, maybe next year, and then we
104
00:19:33.150 --> 00:19:38.790
Regina: still are running on the spot, because we do not address this.
105
00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:43.340
Dr Steve: Well, it's it's I agree with you.
106
00:19:43.460 --> 00:20:05.744
Dr Steve: I think often I'll tell you a little story in a second. I learned most people are so worried about the mechanical things, you know, like I gotta make this phone call and that they're they're always like thinking a half hour ahead or half hour behind. I think you're right, and I think there's an absolute power of the focus, the fruitless. If you want to like a Star wars analogy.
107
00:20:06.620 --> 00:20:17.990
Dr Steve: So let me ask you this. Let me tell you a little story. Maybe you've heard this. Maybe you haven't. I heard it? I was this. I didn't. I didn't make this up. It was I was at a business event. There was an office, and they made products.
108
00:20:18.620 --> 00:20:26.310
Dr Steve: and they were so focused on making their products and making sure they were really good, and getting feedback and getting reviews. And then.
109
00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:32.520
Dr Steve: you know, whatever machines that made the products that they didn't. They never fixed the lock on the door?
110
00:20:32.810 --> 00:20:38.750
Dr Steve: So they they made all these products all this time to ship them out. They couldn't open the door because it was broken.
111
00:20:39.050 --> 00:20:42.659
Dr Steve: And it's the metaphor of the story is that
112
00:20:42.780 --> 00:21:01.929
Dr Steve: you have to always be prepared for things that you're not expecting. A. And the second part is, everything affects kind of everything right? You get the best thing in the world, but if you can't get it out to people, or you might have a great message, but if you're incapable of communicating it clearly, and that would. The metaphor of the
113
00:21:01.930 --> 00:21:25.280
Dr Steve: broken door was the ability for someone to communicate or deliver on what they have, whether it's a physical product, whether it's a service product, whether it's a self improvement or self development product, which is kind of the category you're falling into one of the last 2. So you got to work on everything. You got to work on the lock on the door, metaphorically speaking, and you got to work on the delivery side.
114
00:21:26.066 --> 00:21:29.049
Dr Steve: So let's let's do this.
115
00:21:29.435 --> 00:21:39.370
Dr Steve: If somebody wanted to reach out to you, it's through your website. I assume you do coaching? You have your book. Is it one on one? Is it workshops? What's your what's your model that way?
116
00:21:39.730 --> 00:21:57.640
Regina: Yeah. So I work one on one with my clients. And I also teach. And I speak at events at companies and so on, so that but for for the listeners, for most of the listeners here, it's probably about the one on one coaching.
117
00:21:57.640 --> 00:21:58.430
Dr Steve: Okay.
118
00:21:58.600 --> 00:22:08.049
Regina: Of course, if there are business owners who want to do trainings for their teams, I can do that as well. I also provide leadership, training and other types of.
119
00:22:08.050 --> 00:22:15.199
Dr Steve: Sarah gonna be a follow up living my freaking, amazing life? Is there going to be like a sequel, or you have more to say? Or is everything.
120
00:22:15.200 --> 00:22:16.250
Regina: App. Yeah.
121
00:22:16.250 --> 00:22:20.940
Dr Steve: I'm sure you have more to say. It's sort of a leading question, but hmm!
122
00:22:20.940 --> 00:22:26.592
Regina: Yeah, so there's a new book idea already, you know, when we write a book, especially when we include
123
00:22:27.090 --> 00:22:36.079
Regina: lots of pieces about our own lives. And that is a sort of a it's a kind of self development in itself.
124
00:22:36.080 --> 00:22:37.710
Dr Steve: There's a vulnerability, for sure.
125
00:22:37.710 --> 00:22:48.649
Regina: Yes, yes, and and we go through all those stories again, and that creates a major change in ourselves. When we actually use it for that right?
126
00:22:48.650 --> 00:23:11.290
Dr Steve: Without without getting specific. I imagine what you know now, there's things you may have done differently 5, 1015, 20 years ago, but it. But I think your message, if I'm interpreting it correctly, is that all those things lead us to this point. So we are to some degree the sum of everything that's happened before us. If you enable those lessons to be learned
127
00:23:11.650 --> 00:23:12.350
Dr Steve: and and.
128
00:23:12.350 --> 00:23:37.340
Regina: Absolutely. But it's not just about those external lessons to me anymore. I already grew into somebody else. As soon as I finished the book. Several things happened. 1st of all, I started adding a new methodology that I have been studying in depth to my coaching repertoire, and I'm integrating it into my own. You know my frameworks
129
00:23:37.340 --> 00:23:51.209
Regina: and whatnot because I've created several different coaching frameworks and leadership frameworks. But also, as soon as I finish the book, you know, it's not outdated to my readers, of course, but oftentimes what happens is
130
00:23:51.210 --> 00:23:52.730
Regina: for the author.
131
00:23:52.800 --> 00:23:54.260
Regina: It's almost
132
00:23:54.670 --> 00:24:08.659
Regina: outdated is not the right word, but it's almost. It's already in the past now. So I'm already thinking about something else, as you suggested with your question, right? And because I grew into someone else just by writing the book.
133
00:24:09.670 --> 00:24:11.559
Dr Steve: Yeah, right? Yeah, beautiful.
134
00:24:11.780 --> 00:24:19.529
Dr Steve: Hey? We're gonna wrap up soon. But is there anything we did not get into that you want to share with the listeners or the viewers here.
135
00:24:21.230 --> 00:24:24.050
Regina: Well, I.
136
00:24:24.050 --> 00:24:25.660
Dr Steve: That we haven't already talked about.
137
00:24:25.660 --> 00:24:38.710
Regina: Yes, yeah. So I I really, I really want to get you very clear on what success really means to you, because it does not mean the same thing for different people.
138
00:24:39.320 --> 00:24:51.610
Regina: and it doesn't have to mean the same to you as it means to other people. You know most of my clients. Success goes beyond a paycheck or lots of business.
139
00:24:52.230 --> 00:25:07.740
Regina: High business income, I should say, and or a title, you know, it's much more than that for most people. It's also about fulfillment. It's about well-being. So what's important to you in your life.
140
00:25:07.740 --> 00:25:08.110
Dr Steve: Yeah, yeah.
141
00:25:08.110 --> 00:25:08.770
Regina: In your business.
142
00:25:08.770 --> 00:25:13.440
Dr Steve: Define your. This is exactly how you define your freaking, amazing life. You don't have to be a billion
143
00:25:13.590 --> 00:25:20.070
Dr Steve: to be happy, although some people link those things, but you're talking on a much more.
144
00:25:20.250 --> 00:25:26.159
Dr Steve: I don't want to say spiritual, but but kind of centered level. Maybe it is spiritual to some people too
145
00:25:26.550 --> 00:25:27.490
Dr Steve: awesome.
146
00:25:27.690 --> 00:25:35.169
Dr Steve: So, Regina Huber, hopefully, I'm saying it right. The book live in my freaking, amazing life.
147
00:25:35.610 --> 00:25:38.720
Dr Steve: Create the life that's perfect. You anywhere in the world. Hey? Let me
148
00:25:39.070 --> 00:25:46.199
Dr Steve: let's do this. I just let's have a little fun for a second, because you speak like 48 languages. Right? How do you say the title of your book in Portuguese?
149
00:25:47.400 --> 00:25:50.449
Regina: Vivendo amia vida! Freaking! Incredible!
150
00:25:50.450 --> 00:25:57.329
Dr Steve: Oh, I like that love when she speaks Portuguese. Can you say it in German, too? How many language you said like 7 languages.
151
00:25:57.704 --> 00:26:04.810
Regina: I speak I speak 5 and and a little bit of Italy, but that's more like understanding.
152
00:26:04.810 --> 00:26:06.490
Dr Steve: Your native language is German.
153
00:26:06.490 --> 00:26:07.449
Regina: It's German. Yeah.
154
00:26:07.710 --> 00:26:10.019
Dr Steve: Yeah. Can you say, you're talking German, too.
155
00:26:10.020 --> 00:26:17.399
Regina: Yeah, I'm I'm gonna try. I haven't even really translated it. But it's an absolute
156
00:26:18.210 --> 00:26:22.659
Regina: for wirtlichtes. Lieben Lieben. It sounds a little bit less.
157
00:26:23.140 --> 00:26:27.460
Dr Steve: Not to knock the German. I don't insult anything.
158
00:26:29.690 --> 00:26:48.809
Dr Steve: well, okay, you want to do something. I do this with a lot of my my guests, and I call it the the favorite 5. It's really to learn a little bit more about you real quick. These are like one word answers, okay, anyway, before we get into this Regina Uber, okay, check out her site, check out her book on Amazon.
159
00:26:48.930 --> 00:27:01.129
Dr Steve: We're on her website. We'll list again in a second. But yeah, I'm going to ask you 5 things real quick. What is your favorite? Your 5 favorite? What's your favorite food? You've been all everywhere. I don't know what you got all kinds of, maybe
160
00:27:01.310 --> 00:27:04.369
Dr Steve: culinary experiences. But is there one food, your favorite.
161
00:27:07.897 --> 00:27:16.582
Regina: The the grilled fish they serve in the northeast of Brazil. On the beach is one of them.
162
00:27:17.040 --> 00:27:21.760
Dr Steve: Nobody's ever answered that before. 190 episodes you're fit
163
00:27:21.760 --> 00:27:24.850
Dr Steve: fish on the beach in northeast for wow!
164
00:27:26.400 --> 00:27:28.975
Regina: You can look that up.
165
00:27:29.490 --> 00:27:30.569
Dr Steve: What's it? What is it?
166
00:27:31.520 --> 00:27:32.690
Regina: I ping.
167
00:27:32.690 --> 00:27:33.110
Dr Steve: IP.
168
00:27:33.110 --> 00:27:40.089
Regina: Yeah, it's it's like, what do you call it in English now? I I can't come up with it.
169
00:27:40.090 --> 00:27:41.320
Dr Steve: It sounds good.
170
00:27:41.320 --> 00:27:41.740
Regina: No.
171
00:27:41.740 --> 00:27:42.450
Dr Steve: It's not.
172
00:27:42.450 --> 00:27:43.010
Regina: Good. Yeah.
173
00:27:43.010 --> 00:27:45.390
Dr Steve: About favorite color. That's probably an easier one.
174
00:27:45.753 --> 00:27:46.116
Regina: Yellow.
175
00:27:46.480 --> 00:27:51.309
Dr Steve: Yellow. Wow! That's that's not a comedy. You had a favorite song music.
176
00:27:52.111 --> 00:27:58.619
Regina: Yeah, I I mean, I I love Donbolo music. So I'm gonna just name the music type.
177
00:27:59.110 --> 00:27:59.950
Dr Steve: Okay.
178
00:28:00.380 --> 00:28:02.590
Dr Steve: Favorite animal. You, an animal person.
179
00:28:02.590 --> 00:28:03.400
Regina: Elephant.
180
00:28:03.780 --> 00:28:16.460
Dr Steve: 2 answers. Nobody's ever said before the Ipino, or whatever it's called fish, from Brazil and elephant. Most people say dogs or cats, just Fyi. So after all this, you got a favorite place.
181
00:28:18.460 --> 00:28:21.530
Dr Steve: I mean a lot of places you've been, is there one? You may end up retiring to.
182
00:28:21.530 --> 00:28:41.490
Regina: I love Rio de Janeiro a lot, despite all the difficulties I've lived there. But I did a lot of dancing there, too, and I actually now remember that it's called yucca, and we call it yuca, usually in English, right? Yeah. And it's fried yucca, basically. But in a very specific way.
183
00:28:41.490 --> 00:28:42.180
Dr Steve: Wow.
184
00:28:42.610 --> 00:28:47.709
Dr Steve: I'll give you a bonus question. This is the one everybody gets right who is your favorite podcast host.
185
00:28:48.450 --> 00:28:49.116
Regina: Oh,
186
00:28:51.440 --> 00:28:54.609
Regina: It is actually a really difficult one.
187
00:28:54.610 --> 00:28:57.189
Dr Steve: It is a hard question for some people. Yes.
188
00:28:57.540 --> 00:29:14.479
Regina: It is a difficult one, because I've been on so many different shows, and it and every host has a different style. It's a little bit like dancing. Every time you dance with somebody different it feels different. And it's a completely new experience. And that's why I don't want to choose one.
189
00:29:14.680 --> 00:29:16.650
Dr Steve: Oh, very diplomatic.
190
00:29:16.940 --> 00:29:26.609
Dr Steve: All right, let's let's get your website one last time, and then we're going to wrap this up. So how? What is your site that you want people to go to, to learn more about what you are offering.
191
00:29:26.870 --> 00:29:36.709
Regina: Yeah, sure. Thank you for that transformyourperformance.com has all the relevant information, including Youtube links. Everything you need.
192
00:29:37.000 --> 00:29:37.860
Dr Steve: Beautiful.
193
00:29:38.100 --> 00:29:39.429
Dr Steve: There you have it!
194
00:29:40.220 --> 00:29:41.700
Dr Steve: What are you waiting for?
195
00:29:41.980 --> 00:29:45.780
Dr Steve: Go get your freaking, amazing life going transform, live it.
196
00:29:46.030 --> 00:30:04.650
Dr Steve: Dr. Stephen Green. Here this is the make the great experience podcast. This is about showing you paths to success. My hope is what you've learned today and from the other episodes will help you to level up whatever that means for you, whether it's better grades in school, whether it's better stuff at work, better relationships, all of it.
197
00:30:04.780 --> 00:30:19.550
Dr Steve: right? So the whole idea is to take what you learned today. Take what you heard today, what you saw today, depending how you're digesting this and putting it into action. Nothing changes unless you do something right, Regina. You got to take action.
198
00:30:20.000 --> 00:30:47.250
Dr Steve: I'm telling you. Take action, and I would love if people could share this. The more people this is about helping people is not selfishly motivated. The more people, I think, get this information, the better we live in a stressful world pressures. People need to take responsibility for their own happiness. And I think we had a great example of that today, traveling all over the world, seeing all kinds of things doing what she had to do when sometimes the going got a little difficult.
199
00:30:47.430 --> 00:31:00.660
Dr Steve: So once again, Regina, thank you for coming on the show. Wish you a lot of luck with what you're doing. Great success with your new book and your coaching program. And that's it for today. So thanks everyone.

00:01:48.340 --> 00:02:06.859
Dr Steve: So, Regina, welcome. That was, I got to take a break. That was a long intro. But clearly you've got a really interesting background. We could probably spend an hour just talking about every place you've been. But let's start with your book. Okay, the title is provocative. Live in my freaking, amazing life
14
00:02:07.140 --> 00:02:22.619
Dr Steve: subtitle, create the life that's perfect for you anywhere in the world. Tell us a little about yourself. Tell us, maybe, about your backstory. But let's let's let's maybe focus on what created what? What was your inspiration for this book.
15
00:02:23.310 --> 00:02:26.646
Regina: Yeah, thank you so much for having me on today.
16
00:02:26.980 --> 00:02:31.059
Dr Steve: My pleasure, my pleasure. I'm happy to learn, and let's hear what you got to say.
17
00:02:31.410 --> 00:02:54.819
Regina: Thanks for the invite. So yes, my freaking, amazing life started in a tiny little village in Bavaria, Germany. I grew up on a farm. So 2 lineages are very hardworking farmers. You know the typical thing that many of us learn as children. You gotta. You gotta work really hard to to get somewhere, which.
18
00:02:54.990 --> 00:03:12.639
Regina: in fact, is a lie. But you know we can also expand on that, maybe at some point. So my, what really pushed me out into the world was my adventurous spirit, which was more in the lineage of my dad's side.
19
00:03:13.040 --> 00:03:36.149
Regina: and all that, despite me being the shyest kid in the village right, but I had to really just overcome this shyness, and step into my confident self at some point, to be able to move to different places by myself to find new friends and to create a new life in all these different places. So
20
00:03:36.270 --> 00:04:02.290
Regina: it started with Munich. After my studies, I started working at a global consulting firm, and that gave me an opportunity to move to Madrid, Spain, where soon I was promoted into a leadership role. I stayed there 7 years. Also learned Portuguese, because I did a lot of work with Portugal, helped the company open to offices in both Portugal and later Sao, Paulo, Brazil.
21
00:04:02.490 --> 00:04:11.390
Regina: and from there, you know, I I moved to Argentina for a bit. I've lived in Argentina twice I've lived in Brazil twice.
22
00:04:11.660 --> 00:04:23.209
Regina: and in both countries also as a business owner of a brick and mortar business that I founded in in these places. I don't have that anymore, but I had it in the past.
23
00:04:23.710 --> 00:04:51.900
Regina: And now my business transform your performance, which is a coaching, speaking, and training business, is located and based in New York City. Although currently I'm with a foot in France and a foot in the Us. Always back and forth. And lately I've also done more work in Africa on the African continent, and when I say Africa, it's, of course, a huge continent. And so mostly in East
24
00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:56.269
Regina: Africa, West Africa, and the southern part of Africa.
25
00:04:57.260 --> 00:05:02.404
Dr Steve: All this, and, amazingly enough, Regina is still only 25 years old.
26
00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:04.310
Regina: Yeah, sure.
27
00:05:04.310 --> 00:05:20.709
Dr Steve: It's packed a lot into a short amount. Well, clearly, this is, I mean, this is an impressive pedigree. I'm jealous just to your language skills English. I'm pretty good at. But besides that, I know, like 3 words in about 20 languages. But let's let's talk about your book. Okay.
28
00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:40.260
Dr Steve: great title, love, the title in fact, I found Regina as a potential guest through a common community, that we're in which is people looking to be on podcasts, people hoping, podcast and I love the title of the book. And that's 1 of the reasons that made the connection living my freaking amazing life, keeping it kind of family oriented. There.
29
00:05:40.430 --> 00:05:56.290
Dr Steve: let's talk about the book. What's the book about? I mean, briefly, what's the book about? Who should read it? What would they get out of it. What's your hope? When somebody reads your book, I assume it's to inspire people, at least on some level. So let's get into the book.
30
00:05:56.690 --> 00:06:03.721
Regina: Absolutely because I do a lot of leadership coaching professionally. It's also about leadership.
31
00:06:04.310 --> 00:06:15.150
Regina: It's a little bit of a different leadership book. It's about the leadership of self and others. Right? So it's also about the the way we lead our lives
32
00:06:15.150 --> 00:06:38.329
Regina: and ourselves. And you said it right, Stephen. It is about inspiration, about inspiring people really to live life on their own terms, because oftentimes we follow a path that we think we are supposed to follow. Maybe we were, unconsciously.
33
00:06:38.580 --> 00:07:04.969
Regina: you know, slipping into it at some point, and we don't know how to get out of it now that we are already in it, and maybe we cannot find the courage to do that. And as someone who has started a new life in many different locations, sometimes absolutely from scratch like, for example, last time in in New York City in 2012, when I started my current business right when I founded it, and when I started building it.
34
00:07:05.230 --> 00:07:14.259
Regina: and I had just gone through a very interesting and difficult phase in in Brazil.
35
00:07:14.370 --> 00:07:37.999
Regina: where, because of a fraudulent business partner, I had well, I had lost my brick and mortar business, so to speak. I had to make a decision to really close it down, which was a very tough decision at the time. It cost me a lot of things. It cost me a lot of money in the 1st place, and also my confidence at the time and my self-esteem, and I had to rebuild that from Scratch.
36
00:07:38.000 --> 00:08:00.970
Regina: And these stories, and also many, many adventures, some crazy ones go went eventually. Now last year into my book, living my freaking, amazing life. I already show the English version. I also translated it to Portuguese, because I thought maybe some other friends in Brazil and in Portugal would like to read it too, and they might find themselves in it.
37
00:08:01.190 --> 00:08:14.969
Regina: some of them. And this is how the book came about. The book had been started a few years ago. However, it was also sitting there for a while, because I wasn't quite sure
38
00:08:15.130 --> 00:08:40.230
Regina: what to make the main focus of it. I didn't just want it to be a biography, I mean, you know, who wants to read another biography right? It should be really meaningful to the reader and give them value in terms of yes, inspiration, and to also leadership lessons that I have learned through these real life stories.
39
00:08:40.809 --> 00:08:54.499
Dr Steve: So it's based on experience that you've had. But it would be broader in the sense that people can learn from some of the positive, and maybe some of the challenging things that have happened to you if you could distill it down.
40
00:08:54.709 --> 00:08:56.539
Dr Steve: So let's say one thing
41
00:08:56.719 --> 00:09:24.879
Dr Steve: like, what's the singular core message that you're trying to like. Leadership's important, right? But then that can mean different things to different people, I suppose. But but in your mind what what I read the book I get done, I'm thinking. Wow! I just learned, Lank, what would you want that answer to be? And I'm sure it could be different. But what do you think? The single, you know somebody saying Watch! I'd get Regina's book. I'm going to learn about something. What would that ultimately be?
42
00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:40.899
Regina: Well, 1st of all, that no one can empower you but yourself. So you are the one who decides what you want, what you desire what you want your life to be like, and you alone have the power to bring that about.
43
00:09:41.030 --> 00:09:41.510
Dr Steve: Hmm.
44
00:09:41.510 --> 00:09:56.750
Regina: Okay, it's up to you to choose that freedom also, at the same time, to choose the responsibility that comes with freedom and the other way around, because once you take a hundred percent responsibility, you will also
45
00:09:57.400 --> 00:10:06.960
Regina: be able to enjoy greater freedom right like when I take responsibility for all that I have experienced.
46
00:10:07.770 --> 00:10:21.549
Regina: and I really see my role in it in its in its full sense, like, I have created everything that I have lived in my life so far, even the parts that I would rather have not created
47
00:10:21.880 --> 00:10:31.879
Regina: right. Once we realize the power in this. That's when we can really create that freaking, amazing life. And that doesn't mean that there are not ups and downs.
48
00:10:31.880 --> 00:10:32.280
Dr Steve: Oh! Oh!
49
00:10:32.280 --> 00:10:39.040
Regina: We will experience those, all of us. I have not met one person who has not experienced that.
50
00:10:39.390 --> 00:10:41.070
Dr Steve: So so yeah, go ahead.
51
00:10:41.070 --> 00:10:45.279
Dr Steve: So the the this is a question here. What does it mean
52
00:10:45.550 --> 00:11:09.740
Dr Steve: to lead oneself through life, or to live a freaking, amazing life. You're kind of. You're almost creating like a verb to live a freaking creative life. Right? So how do you? Obviously people are taking responsibility for what they do, based on what you're saying. They're they're enjoying themselves. They're hopefully having business, success, personal success. How do you envision this? What's the kind of thing that gets everybody excited here.
53
00:11:10.370 --> 00:11:19.529
Regina: But especially as business owners as entrepreneurs. There are moments when we feel like freaking out. So how can we turn this freaking out moment into a freaking.
54
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:20.730
Regina: amazing.
55
00:11:20.730 --> 00:11:23.260
Dr Steve: The entrepreneurs out there. Has that ever happened to you?
56
00:11:24.460 --> 00:11:39.100
Dr Steve: Oh, oh, I just hurt my ear all the yeses! No, it is challenging, and life is challenging. I mean, if you're a student, if you're an entrepreneur, if you're a business owner, if you're an employee, there's challenges all the time right, and there's there's there's rewards, too. But anyway, keep going. Keep going.
57
00:11:39.370 --> 00:12:03.820
Regina: Yeah. So it's about how to turn that, you know. Sometimes we say how to turn a challenge into an opportunity. Well, I like to say how to turn that freaking out into a freaking, amazing moment, because because there's value in everything. And you know 1 1 thing that I have learned that, I think is can really make a huge difference.
58
00:12:03.950 --> 00:12:05.969
Regina: When we stop
59
00:12:06.320 --> 00:12:16.729
Regina: asking the question, why is this happening to me? Or why is this happening to me again. Even worse. Right then.
60
00:12:17.070 --> 00:12:20.280
Regina: you know, then, and we replace it with.
61
00:12:20.610 --> 00:12:26.789
Regina: how is this happening for me? That's when everything changes.
62
00:12:27.280 --> 00:12:32.989
Regina: and that's when we can actually see the opportunity in a challenge.
63
00:12:32.990 --> 00:12:40.289
Dr Steve: So you're sort of shifting a something that is causing you to do something into something that would motivate you to do something.
64
00:12:40.900 --> 00:12:45.990
Regina: Yes, and it's actually not causing me. Somehow, I created it. So I'm gonna 1st of all take that perspective.
65
00:12:45.990 --> 00:12:50.829
Regina: So you somehow times created unconsciously, of course.
66
00:12:50.830 --> 00:12:51.330
Dr Steve: You know.
67
00:12:51.330 --> 00:12:59.010
Regina: Of course, eventually, we want to get to a point where we can more consciously create the reality. We really.
68
00:12:59.010 --> 00:13:03.930
Dr Steve: Love it, love it. So this is about, in a sense, personal self-empowerment.
69
00:13:04.300 --> 00:13:22.150
Dr Steve: clarity of vision. And in turn it. This is how you get your freaking, amazing life, my guest today, Rebecca Huber. Rebecca's in New York. But this is like her 58th stop on a long journey around the world. This is the make the great experience podcast your host, Dr. Stephen Green.
70
00:13:22.260 --> 00:13:24.300
Dr Steve: Regina, has written a book.
71
00:13:24.490 --> 00:13:29.559
Dr Steve: I've written a book with a title that I love, love, love called my freaking, amazing life
72
00:13:29.770 --> 00:13:37.940
Dr Steve: create life that's perfect for you anywhere in the world. So I think this is a question a lot of people would want to know the answer to
73
00:13:38.240 --> 00:13:43.180
Dr Steve: how does someone achieve greater freedom and inner peace.
74
00:13:43.450 --> 00:13:57.439
Dr Steve: which maybe is the kind of pot at the end of the rainbow of our whole journey. Right is feeling like you've accomplished something, and you got something to show for all your work and all your sweat and tears. So how do you answer that question?
75
00:13:58.170 --> 00:14:03.249
Regina: Well again, you know it. It boils down to that to not being a victim.
76
00:14:03.550 --> 00:14:20.620
Regina: really, you know, determine what you truly desire. Define what you'd like that to look like. Write your vision that's definitely helpful, take steps toward it, but also deal with what might be in the way of it.
77
00:14:21.170 --> 00:14:33.820
Regina: That's often not just external things most of the time. Actually, what's keeping us from creating and experience? What we want and desire is the unconscious stuff.
78
00:14:34.170 --> 00:14:45.869
Regina: And everybody's heard about limiting beliefs. But what we often don't think of are these suppressed and undigested emotions that we never care to fully feel so they could
79
00:14:46.070 --> 00:14:48.030
Regina: finally get transmuted.
80
00:14:48.310 --> 00:15:18.049
Regina: you know. So that's really, really important. That's something that a lot of people don't even think about. And I didn't for a long time I was constantly working on yes, also emotions, but on a more superficial level and on limiting beliefs. But I left this part out, and when I started really going in there. And that's a longer longer conversation of what that exactly, ideally looks like. That's when things started shifting again for me.
81
00:15:18.050 --> 00:15:37.770
Dr Steve: I work with a lot of entrepreneurs. I work with a lot of students, and sometimes you have to focus on what's important at the moment like, if you're a student, you have a test. You got to deal with that. If you're an entrepreneur, you got to go out and get clients you have to deliver service. So some of these things you're talking about are happening on a much more basal
82
00:15:38.336 --> 00:15:42.373
Dr Steve: kind of internal level. If if I can call it that
83
00:15:42.950 --> 00:15:49.549
Dr Steve: but but it the so in your coaching. Well, 1st of all, if people are interested, how do they get your book?
84
00:15:50.140 --> 00:16:05.899
Regina: Yeah, 1st of all, yep, where where people can find it most easily is on Amazon. And then, of course, also on my on my website. There is a book page. My website is transformyourperformance.com. And there's all the relevant information on there.
85
00:16:05.900 --> 00:16:19.829
Dr Steve: Okay, so somebody's interested whether it's in English or Portuguese, I guess they go to Amazon, where every everything is sold. So why not your book, my book, too. By the way, folks, my book, and or your What was your site again? Transform your life.
86
00:16:19.830 --> 00:16:22.120
Regina: Transform yourperformance.com.
87
00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:25.220
Dr Steve: That's already performance. Sorry. Okay. Next question.
88
00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:28.140
Dr Steve: how does someone, how do we
89
00:16:28.530 --> 00:16:44.769
Dr Steve: access our true unlimited power? Because maybe that's the end game here, right? We've inner peace already. We got freedom. We got the ability to direct what we want because we've cleared out all these deep rooted things hopefully through your coaching or through your vision.
90
00:16:44.920 --> 00:16:51.520
Dr Steve: And then what's next? Through unlimited power, and then you can get stuff done. So how? How do we get to that point?
91
00:16:51.840 --> 00:17:18.060
Regina: Well, it's actually all related. Life is a holistic phenomenon, right? And also we cannot separate out mindset and our emotions from the rest, because you could sometimes actually try to sell your stuff for 24 h, and you could actually do all sorts of sales training and never, ever get anywhere with it. If you are not dealing with what you have
92
00:17:18.619 --> 00:17:32.199
Regina: internally going on, and if that's stopping you, you know that's where a lot of frustration comes from for people when they? That's when they actually start saying, Why is this happening to me again? Why is it working for everyone else, but not me.
93
00:17:32.360 --> 00:17:41.866
Regina: And these are not really useful questions to ask. The better question is, okay, how is this happening for me? Or you know,
94
00:17:42.410 --> 00:17:55.450
Regina: what can I do to get unstuck, and maybe that is taking a moment sometimes not just a moment, to work on this unconscious stuff that's blocking us.
95
00:17:55.570 --> 00:18:06.579
Regina: which sometimes we don't know how to do. And we need an expert for. But there's a lot of information also online about this right? So one way of
96
00:18:07.360 --> 00:18:13.979
Regina: moving into our power is to get fully present.
97
00:18:14.380 --> 00:18:24.090
Regina: How do we do that, for example, by breathing ourselves into presence? Right? That's also where we find inner peace.
98
00:18:24.220 --> 00:18:48.839
Regina: It's but it's not only about that. It's also where we find our power, you know, being in the present moment, which is the only moment that exists anyway, the now, because everything else is in our minds, the past, the future, you know, the past is often in our minds in the form of regret, sadness, etc. Sometimes joy, that's nice, right? But also a lot of the other stuff that we really don't want more
99
00:18:48.840 --> 00:18:54.659
Regina: of. And then the future is in our minds in the form of concerns, fears, worries.
100
00:18:54.700 --> 00:18:58.319
Regina: and that's not useful for success.
101
00:18:58.820 --> 00:19:13.810
Regina: and especially also not for the fulfillment that most of us want beyond success. So it's really important to find that power in the present moment. That is where you can move out of fear
102
00:19:13.930 --> 00:19:17.440
Regina: and into your inner.
103
00:19:17.610 --> 00:19:33.050
Regina: infinite power. It's actually not limited. And that's also where you find that freedom, by the way, at the same time, we often neglect the these things as Oh, that's not so important. I'll do that when I get to it. Oh, maybe next year, and then we
104
00:19:33.150 --> 00:19:38.790
Regina: still are running on the spot, because we do not address this.
105
00:19:40.640 --> 00:19:43.340
Dr Steve: Well, it's it's I agree with you.
106
00:19:43.460 --> 00:20:05.744
Dr Steve: I think often I'll tell you a little story in a second. I learned most people are so worried about the mechanical things, you know, like I gotta make this phone call and that they're they're always like thinking a half hour ahead or half hour behind. I think you're right, and I think there's an absolute power of the focus, the fruitless. If you want to like a Star wars analogy.
107
00:20:06.620 --> 00:20:17.990
Dr Steve: So let me ask you this. Let me tell you a little story. Maybe you've heard this. Maybe you haven't. I heard it? I was this. I didn't. I didn't make this up. It was I was at a business event. There was an office, and they made products.
108
00:20:18.620 --> 00:20:26.310
Dr Steve: and they were so focused on making their products and making sure they were really good, and getting feedback and getting reviews. And then.
109
00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:32.520
Dr Steve: you know, whatever machines that made the products that they didn't. They never fixed the lock on the door?
110
00:20:32.810 --> 00:20:38.750
Dr Steve: So they they made all these products all this time to ship them out. They couldn't open the door because it was broken.
111
00:20:39.050 --> 00:20:42.659
Dr Steve: And it's the metaphor of the story is that
112
00:20:42.780 --> 00:21:01.929
Dr Steve: you have to always be prepared for things that you're not expecting. A. And the second part is, everything affects kind of everything right? You get the best thing in the world, but if you can't get it out to people, or you might have a great message, but if you're incapable of communicating it clearly, and that would. The metaphor of the
113
00:21:01.930 --> 00:21:25.280
Dr Steve: broken door was the ability for someone to communicate or deliver on what they have, whether it's a physical product, whether it's a service product, whether it's a self improvement or self development product, which is kind of the category you're falling into one of the last 2. So you got to work on everything. You got to work on the lock on the door, metaphorically speaking, and you got to work on the delivery side.
114
00:21:26.066 --> 00:21:29.049
Dr Steve: So let's let's do this.
115
00:21:29.435 --> 00:21:39.370
Dr Steve: If somebody wanted to reach out to you, it's through your website. I assume you do coaching? You have your book. Is it one on one? Is it workshops? What's your what's your model that way?
116
00:21:39.730 --> 00:21:57.640
Regina: Yeah. So I work one on one with my clients. And I also teach. And I speak at events at companies and so on, so that but for for the listeners, for most of the listeners here, it's probably about the one on one coaching.
117
00:21:57.640 --> 00:21:58.430
Dr Steve: Okay.
118
00:21:58.600 --> 00:22:08.049
Regina: Of course, if there are business owners who want to do trainings for their teams, I can do that as well. I also provide leadership, training and other types of.
119
00:22:08.050 --> 00:22:15.199
Dr Steve: Sarah gonna be a follow up living my freaking, amazing life? Is there going to be like a sequel, or you have more to say? Or is everything.
120
00:22:15.200 --> 00:22:16.250
Regina: App. Yeah.
121
00:22:16.250 --> 00:22:20.940
Dr Steve: I'm sure you have more to say. It's sort of a leading question, but hmm!
122
00:22:20.940 --> 00:22:26.592
Regina: Yeah, so there's a new book idea already, you know, when we write a book, especially when we include
123
00:22:27.090 --> 00:22:36.079
Regina: lots of pieces about our own lives. And that is a sort of a it's a kind of self development in itself.
124
00:22:36.080 --> 00:22:37.710
Dr Steve: There's a vulnerability, for sure.
125
00:22:37.710 --> 00:22:48.649
Regina: Yes, yes, and and we go through all those stories again, and that creates a major change in ourselves. When we actually use it for that right?
126
00:22:48.650 --> 00:23:11.290
Dr Steve: Without without getting specific. I imagine what you know now, there's things you may have done differently 5, 1015, 20 years ago, but it. But I think your message, if I'm interpreting it correctly, is that all those things lead us to this point. So we are to some degree the sum of everything that's happened before us. If you enable those lessons to be learned
127
00:23:11.650 --> 00:23:12.350
Dr Steve: and and.
128
00:23:12.350 --> 00:23:37.340
Regina: Absolutely. But it's not just about those external lessons to me anymore. I already grew into somebody else. As soon as I finished the book. Several things happened. 1st of all, I started adding a new methodology that I have been studying in depth to my coaching repertoire, and I'm integrating it into my own. You know my frameworks
129
00:23:37.340 --> 00:23:51.209
Regina: and whatnot because I've created several different coaching frameworks and leadership frameworks. But also, as soon as I finish the book, you know, it's not outdated to my readers, of course, but oftentimes what happens is
130
00:23:51.210 --> 00:23:52.730
Regina: for the author.
131
00:23:52.800 --> 00:23:54.260
Regina: It's almost
132
00:23:54.670 --> 00:24:08.659
Regina: outdated is not the right word, but it's almost. It's already in the past now. So I'm already thinking about something else, as you suggested with your question, right? And because I grew into someone else just by writing the book.
133
00:24:09.670 --> 00:24:11.559
Dr Steve: Yeah, right? Yeah, beautiful.
134
00:24:11.780 --> 00:24:19.529
Dr Steve: Hey? We're gonna wrap up soon. But is there anything we did not get into that you want to share with the listeners or the viewers here.
135
00:24:21.230 --> 00:24:24.050
Regina: Well, I.
136
00:24:24.050 --> 00:24:25.660
Dr Steve: That we haven't already talked about.
137
00:24:25.660 --> 00:24:38.710
Regina: Yes, yeah. So I I really, I really want to get you very clear on what success really means to you, because it does not mean the same thing for different people.
138
00:24:39.320 --> 00:24:51.610
Regina: and it doesn't have to mean the same to you as it means to other people. You know most of my clients. Success goes beyond a paycheck or lots of business.
139
00:24:52.230 --> 00:25:07.740
Regina: High business income, I should say, and or a title, you know, it's much more than that for most people. It's also about fulfillment. It's about well-being. So what's important to you in your life.
140
00:25:07.740 --> 00:25:08.110
Dr Steve: Yeah, yeah.
141
00:25:08.110 --> 00:25:08.770
Regina: In your business.
142
00:25:08.770 --> 00:25:13.440
Dr Steve: Define your. This is exactly how you define your freaking, amazing life. You don't have to be a billion
143
00:25:13.590 --> 00:25:20.070
Dr Steve: to be happy, although some people link those things, but you're talking on a much more.
144
00:25:20.250 --> 00:25:26.159
Dr Steve: I don't want to say spiritual, but but kind of centered level. Maybe it is spiritual to some people too
145
00:25:26.550 --> 00:25:27.490
Dr Steve: awesome.
146
00:25:27.690 --> 00:25:35.169
Dr Steve: So, Regina Huber, hopefully, I'm saying it right. The book live in my freaking, amazing life.
147
00:25:35.610 --> 00:25:38.720
Dr Steve: Create the life that's perfect. You anywhere in the world. Hey? Let me
148
00:25:39.070 --> 00:25:46.199
Dr Steve: let's do this. I just let's have a little fun for a second, because you speak like 48 languages. Right? How do you say the title of your book in Portuguese?
149
00:25:47.400 --> 00:25:50.449
Regina: Vivendo amia vida! Freaking! Incredible!
150
00:25:50.450 --> 00:25:57.329
Dr Steve: Oh, I like that love when she speaks Portuguese. Can you say it in German, too? How many language you said like 7 languages.
151
00:25:57.704 --> 00:26:04.810
Regina: I speak I speak 5 and and a little bit of Italy, but that's more like understanding.
152
00:26:04.810 --> 00:26:06.490
Dr Steve: Your native language is German.
153
00:26:06.490 --> 00:26:07.449
Regina: It's German. Yeah.
154
00:26:07.710 --> 00:26:10.019
Dr Steve: Yeah. Can you say, you're talking German, too.
155
00:26:10.020 --> 00:26:17.399
Regina: Yeah, I'm I'm gonna try. I haven't even really translated it. But it's an absolute
156
00:26:18.210 --> 00:26:22.659
Regina: for wirtlichtes. Lieben Lieben. It sounds a little bit less.
157
00:26:23.140 --> 00:26:27.460
Dr Steve: Not to knock the German. I don't insult anything.
158
00:26:29.690 --> 00:26:48.809
Dr Steve: well, okay, you want to do something. I do this with a lot of my my guests, and I call it the the favorite 5. It's really to learn a little bit more about you real quick. These are like one word answers, okay, anyway, before we get into this Regina Uber, okay, check out her site, check out her book on Amazon.
159
00:26:48.930 --> 00:27:01.129
Dr Steve: We're on her website. We'll list again in a second. But yeah, I'm going to ask you 5 things real quick. What is your favorite? Your 5 favorite? What's your favorite food? You've been all everywhere. I don't know what you got all kinds of, maybe
160
00:27:01.310 --> 00:27:04.369
Dr Steve: culinary experiences. But is there one food, your favorite.
161
00:27:07.897 --> 00:27:16.582
Regina: The the grilled fish they serve in the northeast of Brazil. On the beach is one of them.
162
00:27:17.040 --> 00:27:21.760
Dr Steve: Nobody's ever answered that before. 190 episodes you're fit
163
00:27:21.760 --> 00:27:24.850
Dr Steve: fish on the beach in northeast for wow!
164
00:27:26.400 --> 00:27:28.975
Regina: You can look that up.
165
00:27:29.490 --> 00:27:30.569
Dr Steve: What's it? What is it?
166
00:27:31.520 --> 00:27:32.690
Regina: I ping.
167
00:27:32.690 --> 00:27:33.110
Dr Steve: IP.
168
00:27:33.110 --> 00:27:40.089
Regina: Yeah, it's it's like, what do you call it in English now? I I can't come up with it.
169
00:27:40.090 --> 00:27:41.320
Dr Steve: It sounds good.
170
00:27:41.320 --> 00:27:41.740
Regina: No.
171
00:27:41.740 --> 00:27:42.450
Dr Steve: It's not.
172
00:27:42.450 --> 00:27:43.010
Regina: Good. Yeah.
173
00:27:43.010 --> 00:27:45.390
Dr Steve: About favorite color. That's probably an easier one.
174
00:27:45.753 --> 00:27:46.116
Regina: Yellow.
175
00:27:46.480 --> 00:27:51.309
Dr Steve: Yellow. Wow! That's that's not a comedy. You had a favorite song music.
176
00:27:52.111 --> 00:27:58.619
Regina: Yeah, I I mean, I I love Donbolo music. So I'm gonna just name the music type.
177
00:27:59.110 --> 00:27:59.950
Dr Steve: Okay.
178
00:28:00.380 --> 00:28:02.590
Dr Steve: Favorite animal. You, an animal person.
179
00:28:02.590 --> 00:28:03.400
Regina: Elephant.
180
00:28:03.780 --> 00:28:16.460
Dr Steve: 2 answers. Nobody's ever said before the Ipino, or whatever it's called fish, from Brazil and elephant. Most people say dogs or cats, just Fyi. So after all this, you got a favorite place.
181
00:28:18.460 --> 00:28:21.530
Dr Steve: I mean a lot of places you've been, is there one? You may end up retiring to.
182
00:28:21.530 --> 00:28:41.490
Regina: I love Rio de Janeiro a lot, despite all the difficulties I've lived there. But I did a lot of dancing there, too, and I actually now remember that it's called yucca, and we call it yuca, usually in English, right? Yeah. And it's fried yucca, basically. But in a very specific way.
183
00:28:41.490 --> 00:28:42.180
Dr Steve: Wow.
184
00:28:42.610 --> 00:28:47.709
Dr Steve: I'll give you a bonus question. This is the one everybody gets right who is your favorite podcast host.
185
00:28:48.450 --> 00:28:49.116
Regina: Oh,
186
00:28:51.440 --> 00:28:54.609
Regina: It is actually a really difficult one.
187
00:28:54.610 --> 00:28:57.189
Dr Steve: It is a hard question for some people. Yes.
188
00:28:57.540 --> 00:29:14.479
Regina: It is a difficult one, because I've been on so many different shows, and it and every host has a different style. It's a little bit like dancing. Every time you dance with somebody different it feels different. And it's a completely new experience. And that's why I don't want to choose one.
189
00:29:14.680 --> 00:29:16.650
Dr Steve: Oh, very diplomatic.
190
00:29:16.940 --> 00:29:26.609
Dr Steve: All right, let's let's get your website one last time, and then we're going to wrap this up. So how? What is your site that you want people to go to, to learn more about what you are offering.
191
00:29:26.870 --> 00:29:36.709
Regina: Yeah, sure. Thank you for that transformyourperformance.com has all the relevant information, including Youtube links. Everything you need.
192
00:29:37.000 --> 00:29:37.860
Dr Steve: Beautiful.
193
00:29:38.100 --> 00:29:39.429
Dr Steve: There you have it!
194
00:29:40.220 --> 00:29:41.700
Dr Steve: What are you waiting for?
195
00:29:41.980 --> 00:29:45.780
Dr Steve: Go get your freaking, amazing life going transform, live it.
196
00:29:46.030 --> 00:30:04.650
Dr Steve: Dr. Stephen Green. Here this is the make the great experience podcast. This is about showing you paths to success. My hope is what you've learned today and from the other episodes will help you to level up whatever that means for you, whether it's better grades in school, whether it's better stuff at work, better relationships, all of it.
197
00:30:04.780 --> 00:30:19.550
Dr Steve: right? So the whole idea is to take what you learned today. Take what you heard today, what you saw today, depending how you're digesting this and putting it into action. Nothing changes unless you do something right, Regina. You got to take action.
198
00:30:20.000 --> 00:30:47.250
Dr Steve: I'm telling you. Take action, and I would love if people could share this. The more people this is about helping people is not selfishly motivated. The more people, I think, get this information, the better we live in a stressful world pressures. People need to take responsibility for their own happiness. And I think we had a great example of that today, traveling all over the world, seeing all kinds of things doing what she had to do when sometimes the going got a little difficult.
199
00:30:47.430 --> 00:31:00.660
Dr Steve: So once again, Regina, thank you for coming on the show. Wish you a lot of luck with what you're doing. Great success with your new book and your coaching program. And that's it for today. So thanks everyone.
200
00:31:02.010 --> 00:31:03.080
Regina: Thank you.
