Interview with Nina Recarey Obier with Success In Leadership
It has been a bit since my last TRIBE interview but I am so happy to start them off again with Lady Nina! I met Nina over 2 years ago at a chamber
breakfast event. She was working the
Toastmasters table. She was and is such
an easy person to just talk with. As
soon as you are in her space, you know that she is focused on you. How awesome
to have such a coach and person in your life.
So go on. Immerse yourself in her
story and feel her genuine care for YOU.
What is the name of your business?
Success In Leadership
What product and/or service do you provide?
I am Your Leadership Liaison and
Freedom Facilitator. I am a guide or discussion leader. I provide leadership
without taking the reins. I serve others through live training classes;
self-paced digital courses, private 1-on-1 and group facilitation. My expertise
is on leadership, being a leader of one, with a focus on vision, attitude and
effective human communication.
With us being more and more wrapped up in social media,
effective human communication is on the decline. I am so happy to present to you Nina. Someone whose passion is the art of communication;
face to face.
When did your business start?
January 2014
Where is your business located?
Pembroke Pines
A fellow Pines neighbor!
What territory does your business serve?
Worldwide
Who does your business serve?
First and foremost women
solopreneurs. Although a few good men are drawn to the products and services!
I love how Nina is focusing on the woman solo entrepreneur
so that she may not go through this journey solo.
What need does your product or service
fulfill for your customers?
The need to have clarity,
simplicity and the proper guide as they journey through their business. Whether
it is just starting out or at a crossroads.
Nothing better than having a guide!
What DIY tip about your product or service
can you share with MY TRIBE?
At a networking event your goal
should be to make 3-5 solid connections. The goal is not to sell a
product/service, it’s to connect and move the relationship forward. Make a list
of your best go to questions. After you ask a question, LISTEN.
Love, love, love! Networking tips. It is one of my weak points. I hope it helps you too.
Who is in your support system?
I will be married 25 years in June
to a man who is incredibly supportive. I am blessed to have my mom, dad, and
sister as my biggest fans! My daughters are my constant inspiration to lead by
example!
Nina is so blessed to have such a great support system!
How did you get bitten by the entrepreneurial
bug?
After 10 years in the Hotel
Business, and all the crazy hours, I was working my dream job as a Training
& Development Specialist. While I was creating this amazing career, I was
introduced to Direct Sales. I was a Creative Memories consultant to get my
product at cost. After my position was downsized, I decided to take Creative
Memories to the next level. Perfect timing, my daughters were young, and I was
able to be at home and also be a successful business owner for 15 years. When
Creative Memories filed for bankruptcy I was at a cross roads, join another
Direct Sales company, or live out my dream and passion to facilitate my own
courses! And so the journey continues as an entrepreneur!
Nina created her own opportunity. I admire her.
What is your biggest success up until now?
My most recent success was
publishing my book in 11/2014! Listen.Learn.Love.Lead- 40 Simple Messages for
an #inspiredlife What started out as
just a to do item, is evolving into spreading the word of my truly simple
messages that literally have changed my life.
I need to get her book!
Anyone want to read it along with me and then we can discuss it. I bet Lady Nina would love to join us.
What has been your biggest challenge?
When I was in Direct Sales, you are
in business for yourself but not by yourself. You have a national company
behind you doing all the marketing, website and more. As a solopreneur, you
fill all of those roles!
Having come from DS (direct sales) myself, I totally
understand. Thank goodness for ladies like
Nina that are there to help us femmepreneurs.
What is your favorite thing about humanity?
I love having real conversations
with people. I love connecting with people just because, not for arterial
motives. I truly believe every interaction with a person is for a reason. We
may not realize the reason right away, but I am always open to the lesson I
either give or receive!
Just so you know … Out of all the personal questions,
Nina picked the one about humanity. It
does NOT surprise.
Where do you most want to travel, but have
never been?
New Zealand. The immense beauty
that God created there has always fascinated me. I love being outdoors just
soaking in the landscape. It always makes me feel so grateful!
Hmmm … I need to make sure that I fit in her suitcase. Tee hee hee.
What about being an entrepreneur do you
love?
My freedom. Freedom to push myself.
Freedom to guide others. Freedom to work with my ideal clients who share my
heart and passion.
I am detecting a common core here.
What is your why?
Human communication is a lost art.
I know people want to connect with people. God put us on this earth together
for a positive reason. I am determined not to solely rely on technology for my
relationships!
She needs to teach this at schools!
Any tips you'd like to share about
networking?
This is my passion. I actually
created a digital course on this very subject, 7 Ways to Network to Gain
Networth. First and foremost I believe you should lead with you the person, not
you, your product or service. You will do this by putting pen to paper and
doing the work to really know your values, character traits, strengths and
weaknesses.
With each interview, I learn something NEW! I need to chat with Lady Nina (again!). My TRIBE would love to have her lead this
workshop.
Any
other tips, special messages or words of encouragement that you would like to
share with MY TRIBE?
Starting and operating your own
business is a process that is in constant flow. Stay the course. Give it time.
Create relationships. A step forward is a step. Constant action is one of the
main keys. Spend plenty of time putting pen to paper. Just thinking about the
steps is not as powerful.
Special offer
Is this an
exclusive special offer just for MY TRIBE?
YES!
OK TRIBE … this one is just for YOU!
How can MY
TRIBE get your deal?

this special last?
