This week on the Marli Williams Podcast, I am hanging out with the AMAZING transformational leader, Preston Smiles. Together we dive into the art and heart of creating experiences that truly transform and change people's lives. Discover the powerful balancing act of challenge and support in personal development, and why creating brave spaces, where people can lean in to some edgy, stretchy places to experience genuine transformation. Preston shares insights on breaking superficial workshop norms, emphasizing intimacy and real connections over performative elements to achieve retention and success. We both highlight the importance of loving people into their greatness. Learn how to make participants feel they're a part of a family and not just attendees at a seminar.
