Why I'm Awesome

"Your only job is to believe that anything positive anyone ever says about your it true."

The words hit me like a love punch to the chest! 

SO much of what Rich Litvin said landed for me, but these words resonated right through me and I felt tears in my eyes. 

It felt so powerful I had to close my eyes, bring my hands up to my face and just be in that feeling. 

What a feeling!! 

In that moment it all began to make sense. 

I knew coming into his 9 Day Virtual Intensive that I was in for a wild ride. 

I just had no idea how impactful it could be. 

Most of all, how utterly awesome, inspiring, caring, loving & supportive the beautiful people that have been drawn to him would be. 

I felt so humbled by the courage I witnessed. 

So filled with joy through the fun we’ve shared. 

So inspired by the skill and wisdom that was present. 

I’m so filled up with love because of the kindness I experienced. 

I’m so grateful for the deep connection I feel and the feedback I received about the impact of my energy & gifts. 

For the first time I’m starting to get it. To understand my gifts and believe in the gifts, the positive things others say about me. 

It is time to believe!! ❤️

If you are reading this, you are likely modest like me, so believing in the impact we make can be a challenge.

I have a tool to help you (and me).

I'm calling it the WHY I'M AWESOME list.

This is a place to keep all of the positive things anyone has ever said about you.

To act as a reference point when you're experiencing self-doubt, in a period of adversity or low energy. 

What would you put on your list?

Why are you AWESOME?

Remember, it's not bragging if it's true! 😉

I've been working on mine. 

This is what I have so far.

WHY I'M AWESOME

1. Sarah Duguid - Appreciate you sharing your authentic self and encouraging others not to be afraid to do the same. 

2. Julia Dias - When I am with you, I am not with the coach, I am with Dave, I get the whole you. I don’t have to match your identity or put on a mask. Because you don’t hold back to can be here too. You create a completely open space for me to be me. 

3. Jeff (referencing the event we both attended with 300 high level leaders and coaches) - Dave, you could lead this whole event. I truly believe that. There’s something about your energy, it’s so authentic. Every conversation with you is an adventure. I would follow you and I feel invested in you.

4. Rez - I’m grateful for your honest & insightful reflections, it’s accelerated my growth.

5. Ati - Dave, you got my attention with your combination of full transparency and strength.

6. Akiko (referencing the event we both attended with 300 high level leaders and coaches) - From the minute I saw your face, I felt this connection to you. It’s a magic (or energy) you have. What came to me as we were talking is that your desire to inspire leaders, what you inspire in your audience, is already happening. I’m very much an observer and I see you and how people are responding to you. These are leaders and they are totally into your groove.

7. Meg - Your energy and smile radiates in a room, even in zoom!!

8. Emilia - I only have positive feedback for the work that Dave and Gillian are doing at Heart Centred Leaders. Their energy, wisdom and words are infectious and they are clearly passionate about their work and building a coaching community for leaders.

9. Anon - After a weekend feeling completely joyful and focusing on “being” more rather than “doing” more I wanted to say - thank you - for being one of the people in my life who has contributed / is contributing to me realising and acting on my ability and capacity to live my best life 🙏 have a wonderful day.

10. Matt Dyer - Great listener, top bloke and most importantly a great Coach. I've taken a lot from working with you for the past six months, I only wish I met you 20 years ago.

11. Lesley Billingham - I have been trying to sum up my coaching experience with you in one word and it is 'transformational' - the key element for me was trust, which you built instantly. Everything else flowed from that. I have experienced coaching in the past through my leadership journey. You are the coach to whom I would return.

12. Dr Mariesha Jaffray - I can't thank you enough for the personal insights you helped me generate through our conversations. You are very easy person to talk to, very genuine and have a real skill for helping people come up with some new, transformational ways of thinking to help drive you on and continuously improve. 

13. Gemma Russell - You have a natural ability to spot the problem/issue I may have fairly easily which then allowed the time together to be spent delving into that, creating action plans to counter act it and allow growth for me and my business. 

14. Tim Waters - You have an acute ability to read an individual coupled with an ever present positivity and most importantly link these insights to actions and accountability (something many miss and the key to unlocking change). Your ability to draw insight into one's own unsupportive patterns of behaviour and how to replace these with supporting ones that helped me towards my goals was particularly impressive.

15. Tim Wigham - I noticed that you have the special gift of making one feel heard, and I certainly felt that you went out of your way to accommodate my requests and concerns. You are an immensely compassionate man with a desire to help people unleash their potential, and to help people live more authentic lives. I immediately experienced improvement in the areas you coached me to address, in line with my aspirations and goals. As a coach myself, I recognise the rigour and respect shown by you at all times. 

16. Diane Stephen - You are incredibly easy to get along with and have such a positive attitude to life that it can’t help but rub off. Your support and insight was lifesaving and completely transformed my belief in what you can achieve.

17. Steven Mearns - Through your help we gained the confidence to promote our business in new and effective ways and confidence to stay the course during those times when it can feel like things aren’t working.

18. Kyle McAskill - You asked me as few as 2 or 3 questions which really got me thinking about where I was now and my vision of where I wanted to be in the next 5 years. I totally opened up and without even thinking things started rolling off the tongue about what truly was important to me.

19. Cassandra Leegwater - A coaching session with you was one of the best experiences in mylife!

20. Boamaruri - You are a natural teacher and motivator. One of the finest individuals I have met in recent years.

21. Jack Rigby - You not only have the attitude and passion for helping people, but the skills and abilities to motivate, to coach and to lift people up. I have no doubt you have the ability to help anyone you work with.

22. Sarah Smith - I got a message from a contact on linked in last night who thanked me for liking your video as it appeared on his feed. He went into work and had a long needed conversation with his boss about how uncertain he was feeling and got some clarity. He did that because of your video, it really resonated with him.

23. Ewan Cook - You offered excellent counsel and were never out of touch. Your services felt entirely bespoke to me and all of the priorities we discussed were my own. You were a fantastic pillar of support and an asset I would certainly not have been without.

24. Steve Nicol - I appreciate your ability to stay quiet and listen.

25. Andy - I just love talking to you Dave. 

26. Noel Edmonds - Dave, I love your smile. I’m going to call you Smiler. 

27. Lorna - Just wanted to say a big thank you - this has made my day. Your feedback is always so generous and gratefully received.

28. Debbie Rennie - As you know it took me a little while to commit to our coaching sessions which was due to where I was in my life and journey but it was absolutely your energy that I was drawn to. At the time I questioned whether the investment was what I needed for my business, I didn’t know what I needed but I believed you and your energy could help me work my way out of the hole I felt I was in. The result being that working with you has helped me enormously both personally and professionally. I appreciate all your wisdom, listening, talking, sharing and energy. You are awesome (Disco) Dave Wynn 🙏

29. Ian - I have landed an MD role with a company I used to work for. I think our chat helped me further believe in my ability and be more confident in what I am setting out to achieve. So, I thank you for that.

30. Shani - You really are a role model in how you spread energy, follow your own path and light the path up for others - I feel very privileged to have spent the time in conversation with you 🙏 Please know that so much of who you be and what you bring is what ripples into the people you interact with - even without saying anything!

If you're TIRED of being pulled in every direction, expected to solve peoples problems and have all the answers. If you're SICK of yes people, you don't have someone to REALLY listen to you and challenge your thinking. If you're FRUSTRATED you have no space to think, you've hit a ceiling in your ability to grow your business (and yourself), you're working in your business, not on your business...
