How 100 Coffee Chats and a Year of Action Transformed My Business
Myrna Miott
Helping leaders and founders attract and retain supporters and raving fans so they can increase their revenue and influence.
When I started 2024, I labeled it my year of action. I started small, challenging myself to step in front of the camera on Instagram.
I attended conferences, met new people, and boldly shared ways I could help increase the revenue of?their business or nonprofit.?
I opened up to collaboration. In partnering with the software developers at mytCreative , they?affirmed my value and invested in my sales training and coaching.
Challenged by MY coach Justin Janowski ,?I made the commitment? of holding 100 virtual coffee chats in 6 months. Through those chats, I met 100 incredible friends who continue to cheer me on and support my entrepreneurial endeavors. As a bonus, I was invited to help lead a community of Christian coaches and entrepreneurs at Faith2Influence.
It's been one of my best years for business and personal development.
Here are the 3 biggest lessons I learned:
1?? Collaboration is a Game-Changer
Teaming up with the right people has proven that together truly is better. Different perspectives and strengths create solutions I could never have reached alone.??

2?? A Good Coach is Worth the Investment?
The right coach doesn’t just guide—they challenge and push you beyond your limits. The growth I’ve experienced with the right mentor by my side has been invaluable.??
3?? Action Beats Perfection Every Time
Dreaming and planning are great, but progress only happens when you move forward. Taking action, even imperfectly, builds momentum and confidence.??
It’s been an exciting year and I'm just getting started.
I‘ve decided that 2025 is going to be even better. It will be the year of collaboration. We don’t have to grow our businesses alone. Who else should I meet? I’m convinced that through our collective connections, there are countless opportunities for collaboration.
We will all go further with the support of one another. Who’s with me?

2 个月I stepped out, after 24 years in the same ministry, to see how God can work in a new way. It was bold and required surrender to His will. Although my new role is challenging, I see new opportunities to serve and it is my hope that beautiful impact will be the result. These students will have a future and hope!
