On Today’s episode of the Achieve Your Goals podcast, we’re releasing a behind-the-scenes QLM group coaching call to the Miracle Morning community!

For those who don’t know, The Quantum Leap Mastermind (QLM), created by Hal Elrod and Jon Berghoff, is an expertly designed mastermind created for high achievers who want to grow, connect, and create a bigger future–together. QLM members spend 12 months developing strong relationships with a close-knit tribe of purpose-driven entrepreneurs who are committed to helping each other make a Quantum Leap in their business and life.

One of the many benefits to being a part of this group, is that members get access to exclusive monthly group coaching calls with elite level entrepreneurs. Although these sessions are typically reserved for paid members, we wanted to give AYG podcast listeners a chance to check out our session with the truly inspiring, Gail Goodwin.

Gail Goodwin is the founder of InspireMeToday.com, a company that provides free inspiration, each day from a new Inspirational Luminary, to a global community of folks from over 150 countries.

In case that wasn’t enough, Gail is also the Developer of Snow Bear Chalets, Founder of Glacier Bear Retreat, a published author, regular writer for the Huffington Post and offers mentoring and mastermind services to clients worldwide from her home in Whitefish, Montana.

In today’s QLM group call, Gail reminds us of the power of “what if?”. What if you took that leap of faith? What if you challenged yourself to step up and do something that makes you uncomfortable? What if you stopped focusing on everything that could go wrong and started focusing on everything that could go right? Her story is amazing and her quench for living life to the fullest is inspiring.
