I'm Joey, and this is about me.

My Mission: Help people succeed and achieve goals in ways aligned with their core values.

My Vision: Knowing and using your core values become part of everyday life so we can work together to achieve goals and overcome challenges.

My Core Values

  • Courage: The ability to say who you are and what you want and then take the actions you know to do.

  • Curiosity: The willingness to explore even if the answers aren't clear.

  • Connection: Knowing who we are and helping others do the same.

I started my core-based work in 2015 after producing several hundred tribute videos. I listened to thousands of individuals express their affection for loved ones through these videos. At some point, I started to sense a theme in the videos. The themes were something like love, joy, or happiness, and they made me realize we all have something at our core, even if we don't have the exact language to describe it.

As a photographer, video producer, trainer, and manager of a large retail store, I knew the importance of core values. I worked on a system to bring that theme from the background of our lives to the foreground. I started coaching people on using their core values to develop a sense of purpose.

But honestly, I made it too complicated. I used five core values, which was more than anyone could use regularly. I struggled on numerous fronts, and in 2022, I burnt out.

I realized I didn't have the energy to be anything but myself. With nothing left to offer, I started asking, "Who am I, and how can I be more of that?"

As part of that inquiry, I learned the Navy SEALs put things in sets of three because three things are easier to remember in a war zone. That made sense and sounded easier, so I let go of two core values and settled on courage, connection, and curiosity.

From that day on, my confidence, motivation, and well-being improved because I could wake up and ask, "How can I use my core values today?" I took many baby steps, which led to larger ones, and I recovered from my burnout without having to do any extra meditation, journalling, yoga, exercise, or anything else that might be related to anti-burnout efforts. Not because I was against those things but because I simply didn't have the energy.

I was so amazed by those results that I went to work to understand what had happened. Again, I initially made everything too complicated (which seems to be a theme in my life). But through many iterations, I landed on the five-step Core Values Flywheel.

Now, I train executives, leaders, coaches, and consultants on using the Core Values Flywheel to achieve goals and overcome challenges to increase their confidence, motivation, and well-being.

My message is that, given the power of your core values, when you think of a goal, the first thing to do is remind yourself of your core values and explore how to use them to achieve it. You'll always find a path forward with this approach.

I live in Reno, Nevada, with my teenage son, and I am an a skier and photographer.

You aren't the problem

In the places where you struggle, you simply don't have enough practice being yourself.

To create confidence, compassion, assertiveness, grit or determinations, the secret is being more of yourself in more places. Not trying to be something you aren't because that is exhausting.

The fastest and most efficient way to achieve and maintain a goal is by bringing more of your core self to the situation.

Two Reasons for this:

When you a NOT being your core self, you are being something you are not which is exhausting and frustrating, and leads to isolation and burnout.

When you being your core self, your confidence, creativity, and courage increases so you connect with others to find solutions that work over time.

I help people understand...

Their Unique Strengths

Success isn't about becoming someone else. It's about recognizing and leveraging your unique strengths.

The Power of Alignment

Aligning your actions and beliefs with your core identity can exponentially increase your effectiveness at tackling challenges and achieving your goals.

The Importance of Authenticity

Faking confidence or trying to fit into a mold can lead to burnout. Authenticity is sustainable and far more rewarding.

3 misconceptions about our Core Selves

And how they are holding you back.

Image

I already know (or at least I think I do)

You probably have some sense of who you are at your core but your level of clarity isn't sufficient for your goals. Your core self is like your numbers for your business. The more clarity you have, the more power you have to make positive changes.

Image

I can be myself in some places but it's impossible in other areas. There is nothing I can do about it.

Being your core self takes practice. If you are struggling, you just aren't as good at being your core self in that area. There is nothing wrong with you but you need to practice being your core self.

Image

Core work takes too much work.

This true if you don't have a system to use your core self. The uncertainty and overwhelm associated with asking, "who am I," goes away when you have system to clarify who you are, take action in alignment with who you are, and grow you ability to stay true to yourself in more areas of life.

I've spent the last ten years exploring the question, "who am I at my core and how can I bring more of that to my life?" I created the Core Power Framework so you can learn in minutes and hours what took me months and years.

Tell me if any of this resonates with you...

You keep asking yourself, "Am I doing this right?" or "Will this work for me?"

It's time to put an end to the uncertainty and boost your confidence in your decisions.

Image

You are confident in some areas of your life, but unsure in others?

Let's work on creating a consistent sense of self-assurance across all facets of your life.

Image

You have a vision for what's possible but you struggle with making it happen.

You have what it takes, and I'm here to help you realize that.

If these situations sound familiar, you're not alone, and most importantly – you don't have to stay stuck. I've developed a unique process that has already helped numerous people build real confidence and overcome their challenges.

Working with me

Rather than focusing on tips and techniques, we focus on bringing your core self to your life.

We clarify who you are and what you want to accomplish.

We determine any doubts hindering your efforts, you learn to let them go, and then you take action.

We evaluate, celebrate, and revise your efforts so you keep moving forward and connected to your core self.

You repeat the process until your goal is achieved. You benefit from that success and knowing how to achieve it without being fake or burning out. The process works because of the power of your core self. Keep tapping into that and you will succeed.

TESTIMONIALS

Client Reviews

The discussion I had with Joey opened my eyes to the notion of purpose that I never suspected was a necessity to have as a writer. We only talked for an hour but now I have a new focus and start working on a project that I have been struggling with for 6 years. I'm so excited.

Solving Problems and Achieving Goals with Your Core Process

Solving Problems and Achieving Goals with Your Core Process

May 26, 20243 min read

Every business owner faces the challenge of not just identifying problems but effectively solving them in ways that resonate with their personal style and the needs of the people they serve. Understanding and implementing your core process is not just about streamlining operations; it’s about aligning your actions with your identity and the core of your business.

What is a Core Process?

Your core process is a personalized, systematic approach to addressing challenges and opportunities. It reflects how you operate daily, equipped to handle everything from minor setbacks to major initiatives. This process isn’t just about finding any solution; it’s about finding the right solution that works for you and your clients or customers.

Why Your Core Process Matters

Knowing your core process allows you to approach problems with a clear methodology, ensuring consistency and efficiency. It helps maintain a balance between spontaneous creativity and the structured execution of ideas, which is crucial for any thriving business.

Bill Gates emphasized the importance of reflective awareness in successful leadership: "As we look ahead into the next century, leaders will be those who empower others." This highlights the necessity of self-awareness and its role in effective management and operational strategy.

Richard Branson also supports this notion, saying, "Business opportunities are like buses, there's always another one coming." This reflects the ongoing nature of business challenges and the importance of being prepared with a robust core process that allows you to capitalize on each opportunity effectively.

Implementing Your Core Process

  1. Identification: Recognize the recurring tasks and challenges in your business.

  2. Analysis: Understand why these tasks are important and how they impact your business.

  3. Strategy: Develop a systematic approach or steps that align with your core values and strengths.

  4. Execution: Implement the strategies consistently across all aspects of your business.

  5. Review: Regularly review the effectiveness of your process and make adjustments as necessary.

The Cyclical Power of the Core Process

The power of your core process lies in its cyclical nature. The insights and improvements identified in the review phase (Step 5) directly feed back into the identification phase (Step 1), creating a continuous loop of improvement and refinement. This iterative process not only helps maintain momentum but also ensures that your operations evolve in alignment with both internal goals and external changes.

Benefits of Knowing and Using Your Core Process

  • Efficiency: Streamlines decision-making and problem-solving.

  • Consistency: Ensures that all actions are aligned with your business values and identity.

  • Personal Growth: As you refine your process, you naturally develop traits such as resilience, strategic thinking, and leadership.

  • Customer Satisfaction: Solving problems in ways that are authentic to your business builds trust and loyalty among your customers.

Conclusion

By defining and adhering to your core process, you not only enhance your operational efficiency but also elevate your service to those you serve. This methodical approach enables you to tackle each new challenge with a clear plan, while staying true to the core of who you are as a business leader.

As you continue to navigate the complexities of entrepreneurship, remember the wise words of business leaders like Bill Gates and Richard Branson. Their understanding of themselves and their operations paved the way for their success. By embracing your unique core process, you pave your own path to achieving your goals in the most authentic and effective way possible.
