Surviving and Thriving Through Change with Ryan Grams

“It doesn’t matter the change, it matters how we respond to it and how we understand the human condition during it.”In the new hybrid - virtual/in person world, your desk isn’t your desk anymore, it’s your set, it’s your stage. When René first had that realization it was with the help and guidance of Ryan Grams. Our first podcast live guest joins the show to discuss his own pivot during and after the pandemic to fill the void in the new hybrid world.“The way to overcome disassociation is by replicating as close to possible, the in person experience.”And that’s just what Ryan has helped René and many others do, recreate the in person experience as closely as possible through the acronym, C.A.L.L. Camera. Audio. Lighting. Location. Listen as Ryan and René break down how they adapted to this new normal, and more broadly how flexibility and focus can help you and your business adapt to any changing circumstances.Show Resources:TheNeuroSide.comMeetRene.comAmplifiimylife.comAmplifyBook.comNew studio build videoCallUpgrade AMPLIFII™ PackCallUpgrade.com@callupgrade@neelhomeNeel Dhingra’s Forward Event 02:20 - How Ryan and René met03:10 - No one was ready at the beginning of the pandemic03:54 - Who is Ryan Grams?06:00 - The world wasn’t ready for the changes either, most of it STILL ISN’T06:30 - Change is the common denominator07:15 - The basics of video capture, C.A.L.L.09:00 - It’s not JUST the camera, it’s lighting that makes the difference10:20 - They Hybrid/Virtual world ISN’T GOING AWAY11:55 - My desk is my set or stage13:55 - This isn’t about vanity, it’s about overcoming disassociation17:00 - When is a teleprompter not JUST a teleprompter21:10 - Eye Contact is a dance22:45 - Audio24:45 - Test Audio setting!!!!26:10 - If you’re not making mistakes, you’re not in the game28:30 - Does all this really matter?30:15 - René and Ryan have gone through the same changes you’re going through33:06 - If you have a big following… (the first fork in the road)35:30 - How do I speak to people that don’t know me?41:45 - When you understand your brand, you have the materials to build hooks43:55 - Ryan’s advice for maximizing your equipment48:00 - AmplifiiBook.com48:05 - MeetRene.com
