admin - Cindy Eckert, Founder of The Pink Ceiling + CEO of Sprout Pharma — Glambition Radio Episode 171 with Ali Brown

She created Addyi, the first FDA-approved drug for women with low libidos, dubbed by the media as ‘the female Viagra’, and sold the company that created it — Sprout Pharmaceuticals — for $1 BILLION. And then last year, she successfully sued to get it BACK. Why? And then what happened?

I had to get Cindy Eckert (formerly Whitehead) back on the show, not only to explain what’s going on with her company, but also update us on her unabashed mission to help make more women ‘really f—ing rich’.

>>> This is one of the reasons why I’m flying Cindy in to Phoenix this November as a special guest at #ICONICwithAliBrown. She’ll be leading us in a special ‘closed-door’ session on thinking bigger and doing BIG deals. More than ever, women are needed to take their missions to a grander scale. And right now we have less than 17 seats left, so have a look at ICONICwithAliBrown.com.)

As a proven serial entrepreneur with multiple successful exists (and as the only woman to sell her business for over $1 billion), Cindy knows how to take an idea from inception to becoming much bigger than herself.

Today on #GlambitionRadio, Cindy describes why it’s important to be singularly focused, and why she ignores industry formulas to instead follow her curiosity.

You’ll hear us discuss:

*The problem of women entrepreneurs thinking too small these days (and what’s distracting them from their true, ICONIC work in the world)

*The shocking, unsolicited feedback Cindy received from a female attendee at a speaking event, and how it changed the way she introduces herself forever (I love her even more for this, and it revealed how messed up most women are about money in general)

*How you can and should be creative and curious within your industry (and where Cindy went for customer service training with her team — I love this!)

*Why her investment strategy is to ‘make women really f—ing rich’ (and the incredible multiplier effect of this strategy)

Head to Apple Podcasts and listen to this episode of Glambition Radio now (or download for later).

SMART Goals 101: Goal Setting Examples, Templates, and Tips - Brian Tracy

I think you’ll agree with me when I say: We’ve all heard that SMART goals are important . But a lot of people are left with questions about them, for example: What exactly are they? How do we use them correctly? Are they really contributing to your success? Here’s the deal: When it comes to achieving success, one of the most important steps that you can take is setting good goals. It is also important to recognize, though, that not all goals are created equal. In this article, we’ll take a look at a special class of goals called SMART goals and how you can use them to heighten your chances of success. FREE SUCCESS TOOL: Brian Tracy’s 14-Step-Goal-Setting Guide What is a Goal? A goal can be any objective that you set for yourself and push yourself to achieve. Sometimes that goal may be small (like waking up an hour earlier than you normally do) and sometimes it may be larger (like earning a promotion). But here’s the kicker: While having goals of all kinds is almost

bosanchez - The Bias of Fathers

One day, I was at a Christmas party. And parents were forcing their small kids to sing, bribing them with lollipops to banana splits to doll houses to Boracay vacations. One father — a friend of mine whose name I won’t divulge as it would be hazardous to my health — brought his little five-year-old daughter to the front. Because he even had a Minus One prepared, we thought, “She must really be a good singer.” So everyone clapped their hands and cheered as the music started. Then the five-year-old began to sing. Or at least made some kind of sharp noise.  But she didn’t get one key right. The cute little girl was absolutely tone deaf. From beginning to end, she sounded so awful, the experience was similar to having an endoscopy without the anesthesia. But the father was right beside me, still taking photos, still smiling from ear to ear, his eyes glued to his little daughter. He looked at me and smiled, “She may not sound right, but can you see how lovely she sways her hips?” Th
