So let’s get ready to be challenged and and inspired. And Regina, thank you so much for coming on. Please introduce yourself again to the Time to Shine Today, podcast Varsity Squad.

But first, what is something that you have done that maybe nobody really knows about, that you keep to [00:02:00] yourself?

Regina Huber: Well first of all, thank you so much for having me on again. It’s such a pleasure to be, I’m totally delighted about it and looking forward to this conversation. Always really intriguing questions from you, so I’m curious too.

Yeah,

on the spot. Okay. One thing, I mean, it’s not necessarily something that I keep a secret, but I don’t think that a lot of people know that. At 16, age 16 I, I hitchhiked all the way from our little village in Bavaria, Germany, where I grew up in to Amsterdam. Wow. So maybe that’s one interesting data

L. Scott Ferguson: point.

Did you get in trouble for that?

Regina Huber: Nope.

L. Scott Ferguson: No,

Regina Huber: no.

L. Scott Ferguson: Wow.

Regina Huber: Not at all.

L. Scott Ferguson: Six 16. Oh, that, that’s, that’s pretty brave. That’s pretty awesome. So this book, which is, I, which squad, by the way, I was blessed to add, to write kind of a blurb, if you will. It’s on the back cover of the book, and [00:03:00] I will be doing a five book giveaway.

So, , stay to the end for, for that, for how to, , get your hands on one of this, this awesome read. It was like a, I was going through a journey like right next to Regina. , I could probably feel my cortisol levels raise, , my adrenaline pop. It was like and even maybe shed a couple tears as well.

And so like this book, like you really laid a lot out there. Like what was your, like what, why was now the right time to do it?

Regina Huber: Well, first of all, I had actually started writing the book about two years ago. Mm-hmm. And then it was lying there and like sleeping on my computer. I wasn’t really sure what to do with it and what to, what to focus it on.

Sure, I didn’t just wanna make it some biography of Regina Huber that maybe nobody knew, and and, and I, I wanted to make it meaningful to people to pro provide value, [00:04:00] inspiration.

L. Scott Ferguson: And

Regina Huber: then finally last year I decided that now I had figured it out and that’s when I. Really started writing all the rest.

And that’s when it started flowing, so to speak, Scott, because before it was like, okay, this chapter, that chapter, little pieces here and there stories, but it was not a coherent picture.

L. Scott Ferguson: Yeah, I love it. But you had the right time and it’s ballsy. It, I mean, it’s bold to book this out there, which I thought was amazing.

There’s one thing I, I got out of it. You say, . Your life isn’t perfect, but it’s perfect for you. So how did you kinda reframe, , pain and adversity into something sacred and maybe necessary for growth?

Regina Huber: Well, first of all, I believe that we create everything. Also, those experiences that we don’t particularly desire or prefer to have and and so I must have created them for [00:05:00] a reason.

Right. Right. Even though that reason might not have been obvious to me, I might not have been aware of it. It was there for me in a way. Right? And, and so I, I, I, what I did not always consciously at first, right? I, I didn’t always have the same consciousness as I have today. However, I think my life went from just do it to.

Do things more intentionally. Even also dealing with those so-called adversities, which in truth are just really opportunities to, to work with. Sometimes there are opportunities for growth. At other times they are opportunities to leave something behind.

L. Scott Ferguson: Oh my gosh, yes. Yeah. It’s like, I like to say like someone like you is kind of planting trees that you’ll never sit in the shade of, [00:06:00] right.

Because everything that every chapter that you put out there was lessons there as well, ? Mm-hmm. And like kind of throughout this journey of the book, you kind of embrace a life of, , radical uncertainty, right? But you, so like what in kind of internal philosophy helped you navigate, , this fear without letting it paralyze you?

Regina Huber: First of all, I think I always had an adventurous spirit inside of me. Probably inherited it from my dad who couldn’t travel as much because I grew up on a farm.

L. Scott Ferguson: Sure.

Regina Huber: And and, and despite being very shy as a kid, I really had this inside of me. And I was curious. I, I was wanting to see a piece of the world, .

Most people are afraid of uncertainty, Scott, but they forget that there are infinite possibilities in uncertainty, and if you are not willing to open your mind and heart to what you don’t know yet, I. That what you haven’t experienced [00:07:00] yet, then life becomes a boring routine. Yes. Or you could call it a sea of sameness.

Right. And that’s not what I personally wanted.

L. Scott Ferguson: No, you’re definitely not living it. You like you mentioned, like live more, like you went from just Do It, which is a neutral statement, which I feel is the best neutral slogan ever because just do it is kinda like you’re kind of sitting at the stoplight. And when the light turns green, do you get intentional and push that gas out and go, which I just, I believe, I love how you moved.

And that’s just massive action. Like Tiara would say, , like Tony Robbins would say, right. It’s just like you do everything with intention and that you mentioned like part of the book like that had my adrenaline spiking and kind of wish I was there kind of to protect you, right. With the muggers and stuff like that.

But you mentioned that mugs were also teachers. Like, can you walk us through one of your specific dark teaching moments that you really took [00:08:00] away that maybe really kind of transform your life, one of those high cortisol, high adrenaline moments that that really stands out to you the most?

Regina Huber: Yeah, they, I could even call them my partners.

You know what? They were a partner in me having that experience, me creating that experience and they played that role in my life for some reason.

L. Scott Ferguson: No, that’s awesome.

Regina Huber: Yeah. So so some people, , teach us something consciously because they wanna do it as human beings and some others maybe as that spiritual infinite being that we all are.

Right, right. And, and I think, whatever everybody’s beliefs about that are when you find a way to interpret it for yourself in a way that it makes sense, I think that’s what matters.

L. Scott Ferguson: Right. And

Regina Huber: to. These people were there, they came, they crossed my path for a reason. They crossed my path to help me have this experience.

L. Scott Ferguson: Teach you right? To [00:09:00] learn

Regina Huber: from it. Yeah. To maybe just live another reflection. As I now know, because I’m also really doing very deep work right now, again, on myself and with my clients, as I now know, are really, these experiences are really a reflection oftentimes of. Of undigested emotions at times and, and as long as we do not really deal with those emotions, not in a way of getting rid of them, but dis transmuting them.

Dissolving them, that’s when they will. Constantly come back as reminders. And that’s when we talk about patterns. But really they are reflections. Wow. And these people had the role of reminding me that there was something I really, , didn’t have to work on, but it would be beneficial for me to work on.

Right. Right. Right. And so, and, and also say when, that’s why, why I say it’s not a perfect life in the [00:10:00] sense of everything is always going uphill or, or exactly working out as I want it to be or as I expect it to be. It’s perfect in a way that it is my life, a life on my terms, right?

L. Scott Ferguson: A

Regina Huber: life that gives me those moments as opportunities.

And also a life where I have choice. Sure. I think that’s an important piece. , The choice, for example, to look for fulfillment through how I live, through, how I work, what I do, and and, and in the end it’s all about to me personally. Yeah, it’s all about freedom. Power and peace. And with power I always mean inner power.

L. Scott Ferguson: Sure. I love that because I, I believe, I’m a big believer that success is nothing more than living a life of options and not obligations. Mm-hmm. It’s like if you are living a lot of life of options out there, I mean, you have your obligation, you gotta pay your bills, blah, blah, blah, but you don’t let that [00:11:00] paralyze you into like staying in a place.

So with that being said, , you lived, worked, danced across five continents, maybe more, , but what is living that, when you said quasi nomad, , lifestyle taught you about power, safety, and freedom that someone may be rooted. It doesn’t go anywhere in one place. Might want to, might never learn.

Regina Huber: Yeah. So first of all, safety again is nothing external. I. So I mentioned freedom, power, and peace, but you mentioned safety and that’s an important one because it’s a very important concept for, for everybody.

L. Scott Ferguson: No offense, especially a woman. Like again, it’s like I’m not trying to be sexist or anything like that because I know that if I was at that at TMI probably with my high, I test high in protection, I would’ve put myself in front of you.

You know what I’m saying? Mm-hmm. It’s just that’s how it would be. But like just for a woman, it’s, I appreciate that safety. Yeah. Yeah. Right. But of course, but like safety is, [00:12:00] you said, is nothing external, so it’s internal. Yeah. Like, like please go deeper on that.

Regina Huber: Yeah. And of course, yes, we also protect ourselves from external risks as, as human beings.

Right. And, and from temporary and whatnot. But. What I mean with that is that safety, again, has to do with our emotions in a way and how we deal with our emotions, how we deal with our uncertainties, how our insecurities and all these different aspects that together make up life.

L. Scott Ferguson: Sure.

Regina Huber: And and guess I, I’ve taken a lot of risks.

Some people might call some of those risks. Crazy risks.

L. Scott Ferguson: Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I’ve taken, yeah,

Regina Huber: yeah. I’ve cre I’ve taken crazy financial risks. I’ve taken, crazy risks, maybe walking in parts of cities where other people who are locals would probably never walk. And I, and I don’t do [00:13:00] this mindlessly though, right.

, I, I, I am not really suggesting to anyone to walk in, I don’t know certain parts of Johannesburg or Rio de Janeiro or Sao Paulo without thinking about what the. Behavior, the safety behavior for that is, that’s not what I mean. Right. , But, but also using your intuition and, and, and developing that trust with your intuition because your intuition is your true voice that is really trust for

L. Scott Ferguson: your intuition.

’cause it’s your true voice.

Regina Huber: Yeah.

L. Scott Ferguson: What out of all of those was nah. Mm-hmm. Let’s not go there yet. Let, let’s go to, kind of like you, you say that let kinda, let’s probably a little bit into leadership. ’cause a lot of what you do helps leaders. You’re, you’re called into companies, , to the level up their leadership to transform their performance.

And you say [00:14:00] that leadership is wa wasabi, right? It’s flawed, it’s evolving. Beautiful. And it’s imperfections. So how can leaders then. Identify when they’re being flexible. But how do I say this? Also kind of being true to themselves.

Regina Huber: I think there’s no contradiction. It’s actually you can be more flexible when you are true to yourself because you come, , you, you show.

Your authenticity, you show up authentically and, and, and as such, I mean, leadership is not about rigidity. It’s not about it. Leadership is a lot about adaptability. In fact. And, and by of course moving to different countries. I’ve learned adaptability personally, and I think the same. Yeah, the same applies to, to, to leadership.

When I think when you show [00:15:00] up authentically and are true to yourself and people know what you stand for mm-hmm. And they trust you and they, they think that you’re credible because of how you show up, then they will actually. Also they, they will help you with that flexibility,

L. Scott Ferguson: right? Yeah. They’ll follow you as well because you’re authentic.

Yeah. ’cause you’re being true. Right, because they don’t feel like they’re being played, what I’m saying? Like, oh, this guy’s just in here to climb this ladder. He really cares. He’s true. He is authentic. But I think a lot of that goes back in kind of the hiring process of companies. , I just brought on somebody that’s critical to me and it took me like three months and I had him go her go through interviews with two other people that I trust, , to bring around because I want her to really be kind of an extension of me, but be herself.

, ‘Cause I’m blessed to be able to travel a lot and speak a lot, and I need somebody here in Florida that’s gonna have it happen. But you’re right. I mean, authenticity if she would’ve came in different than [00:16:00] what, , than what she interviewed as and that’s why it kind of put her through the gauntlet, right.

With that. Mm-hmm. So beautiful that you say that. And you know, within your story, , shows that adaptability without authenticity becomes self abandonment, right? Yeah. So how can leaders then identify when they’re being. No. Hold on a second. Let’s, let’s not even go there. I’m sorry. I’m gonna edit this because I’ve been, I’ve, I have like 10 questions I’ve been wanting to ask you that I came up and I wanted to be thought provoking.

Okay. So, okay, so you took on like high. High pressure leadership roles like across the globe. Right? Which is like how, , one squad, I think she speaks six, seven languages or something pretty fluently. Her courses, her books are all out in different languages, which is just freaking amazing. Like freaking amazing life.

So you took on these high pressure leadership roles, right? Before you felt by the way, there you go. She’s got the books there. You, you took Portuguese

Regina Huber: and English now. Love

L. Scott Ferguson: it. That’s awesome. That’s a beautiful, Portuguese is such a beautiful [00:17:00] language, , being, , living the life of Brazilian jiujitsu, it’s like, I, I can understand a lot of what they’re saying, Regina, but I can’t speak it yet, but it is in my Duolingo, which I’m learning it so that way you and I can have a conversation, , in Portuguese one day.

But again, you took on the, the. The high leadership roles that we kind of talked about, , before you felt quote unquote ready is what you wrote, right? Mm-hmm. So how did you override the imposter syndrome and own your own brilliance before the world kind of validated you?

Regina Huber: Well I wasn’t really aware much before I was put into that leadership role, you know?

Okay. So it was a pretty quick process. Mm-hmm. I had just moved to Spain Madrid 10 months earlier and just learned the language Spanish evidently, and then, yeah. So I, I was asked whether I wanted to interview for a role that was becoming available. It’s [00:18:00] actually the, the role of the woman who interviewed me.

And yeah. So she was leaving the company.

L. Scott Ferguson: Hmm.

Regina Huber: So I said, well,

L. Scott Ferguson: I thought you got there, there impressed by you and kicked her out her, no.

Regina Huber: So, yeah, I had no relevant background, no relevant experience or studies or whatever.

L. Scott Ferguson: Sure.

Regina Huber: And there were some external candidates that I was interviewing in parallel with.

Sure. There were also, I remember psychological tests and all that stuff. I went through the whole process and my, my first question was when they asked me is, wow, but what would the other, my colleagues think if I just came here a few months ago, literally, and what would they, how will they react if all of a sudden I’m their boss?

Right.

L. Scott Ferguson: Okay.

Regina Huber: That’s an interesting

L. Scott Ferguson: question. Please. I can’t wait to hear this.

Regina Huber: Yeah. And, and, and interestingly enough, Scott, it was not a problem [00:19:00] and I think the, the reason why they did you

L. Scott Ferguson: answer.

Regina Huber: Oh, no, no. I asked them. Oh, got you. Asked them. I was concerned. My apologies. I was concerned Yeah. About that initially.

Right. And then it was not a problem. It was interesting to me.

L. Scott Ferguson: You carry that with you though. I’m gonna interject here because you are the epitome of this. Like a lot of my clients and even myself, right, they attach their mm-hmm. Their confidence to their abilities. In, in. So who, who am I to coach? , My professional athletes, a billionaire, get in front of two, 3000 people and speak.

Who am I to do that? Like my abilities? Yeah, maybe. But that imposter syndrome kind of sinks in. Right? But you said something earlier. I, with my clients and myself, I attach that confidence to my intentions. My intention is to level up everybody that I come in contact with. Right. My intention is [00:20:00] when I’m in front of those people that at least one or a thousand of them, , leave that place, , wanting to level up their life.

Right. And like, , again, , Chet, my, my client is a three comic guy. Right. , A billionaire and it’s like, who am I to coach this hedge fund guy? That is an absolute beast. But my intention isn’t to coach him on his business ’cause he is forgot more about that than I’ll ever know.

Mm-hmm. Exactly. But it’s like there’s other parts of his life that are a blind spot for him to help him realize those. So I believe a lot of that goes to your intention was there, they noticed the intention and the confidence kind of came with it. Am I right in saying that?

Regina Huber: Absolutely. That is so true.

And initially what they probably saw in me is my proactive. Attitude, and that’s where they probably invited me to interview. And then and then yes my ENT again, authenticity is, is a part of this because I did not know about the concept of authenticity, [00:21:00] right? This was many years ago. I was 20, 20 six and no, 27 actually.

Okay. And, it all happened so fast. I didn’t, I never had a coach back then. There was no, no one even had that back then. No, exactly. Exactly.

L. Scott Ferguson: In our generation it never happened. No,

Regina Huber: exactly. No formal mentor, even though you could say that my boss was sort of a mentor, but he was mostly on the road, you know?

Yeah. So, so it was like me, myself, and I a little bit. And I had to figure this out. Right. And I also, as you said, it was not my job to know exactly how these people that I, that, that I had in my team, which was a very diverse team in terms of their jobs.

L. Scott Ferguson: Right.

Regina Huber: I, it was not my job to do their job or to know exactly how to do their job.

Right. That was their job. Right. I was. Therefore something different. I was there to manage their careers to, to, to help them get training to all [00:22:00] these different things. Right. Right. And to, and to be there as a go-to person.

L. Scott Ferguson: Yeah. And I, I just think that they see that in your moments that you’re doing what you love in the service of people that love what you do.

So what I mean by that is like you’re doing what you love. You wouldn’t be there traveling, doing something if you didn’t want to do it, because you live your life intentionally. Do what you love. In the service of people that love what you do, they see that you love what you do, right? They see it till they will follow you.

They see that authenticity, they see that, that grind, that drive. , They see that you’re not trying to put one over on ’em and, and put ’em down and, and you keep yourself ahead like you’re bringing them along. Because I’m a big believer in the plus equals minus lifestyle, right? Like every day I. Find someone that I want to emulate or learn from, and then every day the equals is like me and you.

We kinda wrap and, and bounce ideas off each other. But like what you’re doing at these [00:23:00] jobs that you manage is you send the elevator down the minus side to people to bring them up and that’s why you, you’re so successful. That’s what it is. You live that plus equals minus lifestyle. In spades, ?

So you said that there’s no competition. We’re all uniquely brilliant. Hopefully I hit that right. , . Yeah. So in a culture obsessed with comparison, like social media, all that other jazz, so how can somebody practically shift from scarcity to this abundant mindset that you carry around with you like so beautifully.

Regina Huber: First of all, I suggest that you really do a deep dive on what your unique brilliance is, and I created a very simple framework for that, which is on my frameworks page of my website that that is a simple process and it, and it can really help people find out what that unique brilliance even is.

And once you are totally clear on that, that’s when the competition somehow goes away. Wow. Because [00:24:00] there’s no one like you and there’s no money to compete and you can learn from others. Sure. You can check people out. What do they do online? We, we all learn from each other and, and that’s great. But there’s no need to say, say bad things about other people, for example, who, who you, who you want to compete with.

Right? Right. And, and you also, it. This also helps you to, to show up more authentically because now you confidently can show up with your strengths. Hmm.

L. Scott Ferguson: With

Regina Huber: another piece of your potential that you didn’t know about before maybe, or were just not, , completely aware of. Right. I always say it’s about knowing, owning and showing the value you bring.

Right.

L. Scott Ferguson: Knowing, owning and showing, knowing,

Regina Huber: owning, and showing the value you bring.

L. Scott Ferguson: Mm. And, and so, mm-hmm. How should, [00:25:00] let’s go to the showing part. Yeah. , With. How do they show it without trying to show people up again? I, I’ve been in the corporate world, I’ve been in the military, , even in the coaching and speaking, it’s like, I love, I love females, , that, , I have a massive business crush on you.

I, I admire you, right? And stuff like that. And I come to you for advice and stuff like that for women. How do they, how, how do you think that like. They should kind of turn that, , the pain of poor salaries, , into a strength for them. Like what do you think their number one mindset block is?

, Do you see in women in particular, or maybe even anyone , who struggles to bring their own worth?

Regina Huber: Well, most of the time it has to do with confidence. And it also has to do with owning that value that you bring,

L. Scott Ferguson: knowing, owning, and showing. Right. Okay. And

Regina Huber: showing yes. And then that that’s [00:26:00] not only talking about it, that’s something that sometimes people confuse.

It’s not just about talking about it, it’s integrating it. Who you are, it’s embracing it and it’s ing it.

Yes. So it, it is a, it is really also about your presence, but what is presence even Scott. Mm-hmm. Scott, this is a presence, is a, is a combination of many, many things. It’s a combination of your behavior, your attitude, your words, your, your thoughts, even your body language. Of course, your energy, so many things.

And once you get to a point where these are all aligned. That’s when you don’t have to talk so much about what makes you great.

L. Scott Ferguson: Say that again?

Sense? Nothing talking. I’m trying to make it make sense. Even more sense. And I want the [00:27:00] squad really digging. Okay. That was very profound. That was like, that was straight magic. So say that again.

Regina Huber: Okay. Okay. That’s right. So when. Your words, your thoughts, your attitude, your behavior, your energy, your, your, even your posture, your, your, your, your body language.

When all of that is aligned, that’s when we see your greatness in your presence. Wow.

L. Scott Ferguson: So there’s gotta be

Regina Huber: harmony a little differently.

L. Scott Ferguson: Yeah. No, no. It’s, you nailed it. You actually dumbed it down for someone like me Right. To understand it better. Right. It’s like, , there, there’s what I’m hearing. A shout out to my book coming out, Harmon Cuss.

But it’s kind of like, like harmony within your life because again, I think you and I maybe talked over pizza that day. That balance is shit, right? Sorry. , Balance is junk. Where like, I love jazz. And like so God are spirituals, the drums, personal growth, the guitar, the piano might be family, the [00:28:00] community is the horns, , on and on through the rest of the pillars of work, money, living environment and what you like to do for fun.

If one of them’s outta tune, right? , It sounds like junk. It just does. It doesn’t sound good. But if you find someone like you bring ’em in and help them tune up that little bit to live that harmonic life, , and knowing that another one of their instruments is gonna go outta tune. It’s just gonna happen.

But if you can keep things in harmony, you live that harmonic life. Hence my harmonic hustle that that’s going. So am I nailing it there? ’cause balance. We don’t really wanna search for balance so much. We want harmony because you had to have harmony. Yeah, showing up in nine different 20 different places, how many places that you had, , and you kinda have to live the, , winning in Rome kind of thing when you first get there.

Right. You gotta have to adapt, ? Yeah. You can’t just bring in your own, ’cause people will just be like, get outta here. Right. So harmony. Yeah. Right. Mm-hmm. Okay. Yeah, I love that. Absolutely. Okay, so out of the [00:29:00] experiences that you’ve had. Which one of ’em, and I know there’s a lot, was the biggest teachable moment for you.

Regina Huber: Look, I used to say the. Experience with this fraudulent business partner in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Mm-hmm. And it is a very, , it is a very life changing, it was a very life changing experience for me in many senses. I’ve talked about this on quite a few podcasts. There is a more recent one though, and it was when wa, when I was at the ICUA few years ago with.

Malaria symptoms.

L. Scott Ferguson: Mm.

Regina Huber: However, really, I had already gotten over that malaria thing pretty well, and I was given medication for it, which aggravated everything very seriously. And I didn’t really know whether I would not pass over to the other side. Wow. [00:30:00] And in that moment, I experienced a piece. A sensation of peace so profound that I’d never experienced in my life before.

At least not that I remember. Right. And that was interesting. In many senses. So first of all, it, the only moment that was of importance, Scott, I think that describes it best was the now. Mm. And if we consider the time is an illusion anyway, which some of our listeners might agree with,

L. Scott Ferguson: so true,

Regina Huber: then what matters is the now and that I experienced on such a deep level.

I cannot put that in words. Really. It you can only sense it,

L. Scott Ferguson: right?

Regina Huber: That was [00:31:00] very profound. And then also, of course it inspired me in that moment to live my life even more authentically and even closer to my truth.

L. Scott Ferguson: Right. And even more in the now.

Regina Huber: Yes. Also that, but

L. Scott Ferguson: like very presently. Yeah.

Regina Huber: Yeah. And to be present more.

Yes, exactly.

L. Scott Ferguson: Yeah.

Regina Huber: And, and right now in my life, even after I finished this book. I started doing this much more again. Much, much more.

L. Scott Ferguson: Okay.

Regina Huber: As a daily practice, it’s really becoming a new way of living.

L. Scott Ferguson: Right.

Regina Huber: And had I done this before, my book would already have been different. That doesn’t mean it’s not relevant.

Yeah. Yes, but I’ve already started a new chapter because it actually happens often when we, when we finish a book

L. Scott Ferguson: and all

Regina Huber: of a sudden, , we finished that chapter, even if it’s a very big chapter in this case. [00:32:00]

L. Scott Ferguson: Sure.

Regina Huber: And there’s a new one opening up for us because it is also a, I don’t wanna call it necessarily a healing process, but it is a process of.

Growth. Sure. For lack of a better word right now. Yeah. And while, while we are, and, and you probably have that same experience, Scott, while we are, while we are writing a book, we are growing as, as, as a result of that as well. A hundred percent. Yeah. And just being present is. It is so cliche, but it is where the magic happens.

L. Scott Ferguson: It is there because mm-hmm. Like Ferris Bueller said it in his movie and like, life goes by so fast if you don’t stop Right. And just check it out, it’s gonna just fly right by you. Right. And I paraphrase that it, Matthew Broderick said way better than I did. But it’s a it the truth. So I’m gonna kinda re-ask you a question.

From our first interview, but like, , back to the future, that, that movie, right. [00:33:00] Let’s get in that DeLorean with Marty McFly. Let’s go back to the double deuce, the 22-year-old Regina. Like what would you drop on her? I don’t want you to change any of your journey. Okay. It’s amazing. But like, what might you drop on her to maybe shorten a learning curve or blast through, like maybe corporately or in life in general, maybe just a little bit quicker.

Regina Huber: I would really focus on everything that has to do with who I am rather than on the external stuff. So I would dedicate time to get to know myself really well to, to also find out through that inner journey what. I could transform at that moment. Mm-hmm. So that, , the, so that I wouldn’t have to do it later, so to speak.

And, and, and there’s a lot that we carry [00:34:00] on. , We carry on, on our, on our shoulders for decades and decades that if we had known how to do this, then we could have lived. Let’s just call it fewer challenges and more preferred experiences. Right. Where’s the fun? That Of course, no, of course there’s been, I’m not saying it’s, it’s good or bad.

I’m not saying it’s good or bad. I just think that a, a, a few things would’ve been easier. Sure. And and, and that’s, , that’s what I can think of right now. So really go deep with that self-awareness journey, not just about. What we talked earlier about the unique brilliance and , what do we need to maybe work on, but more like in the, in the, in the mindset and the emotional arena.

L. Scott Ferguson: Okay. So focus on everything to do with who you are, not the external side. Yeah. Right. Don’t let that like, be present. Be [00:35:00] yourself. Mm-hmm. Be like, really dig, do a deep dive into yourself and hire a coach like you to kinda help you. Hold that mirror up in front of them and help them really just lean into their ultimate human.

Right.

Regina Huber: Right. So

L. Scott Ferguson: how can we find you?

Regina Huber: Well, my website is still there, where it was last time. Got it. Transform your performance.com. Okay. I added a new page, which is about freedom coaching now, because I really want to also do more work in this, , life is a holistic phenomenon area,

L. Scott Ferguson: right.

Regina Huber: And I started working with a new methodology that has given me additional, not just tools, but really a new way of, a new perspective, a new way of living. And it’s already reflected in those first testimonials right. Of the people that I’ve worked with. So that’s, yeah. And then of course my website has all my other links.

Has your book.

L. Scott Ferguson: Yeah. [00:36:00] You It is, it is a fun read squad and I literally read it on a plane flight. To an event. Like literally she sent it to me, an advanced copy. And it was, it was such an adventure in the book. It’s, it’s like a adventure. Like you’re maybe reading like a, I don’t know, like a first person novel, like the old Harry Bosche.

Ones like, , that, that are out there, that are just full of excitement saying, is this even real? What she’s talking about in the stuff, , but she backs it up with proof, with pictures and everything else, , which is just amazing. And I do wanna do a five book giveaway for the first five people that put freaking.

It’s gotta be spelled the way it is in her book, R-F-R-E-A-K-I-N. You’d wanna put the apostrophe on it, that’s fine, but if not, I’ll know that you’ve listened and I’ll send you out a a copy of her book in, in whatever version you want, the Kindle version or the paperback version, but I’ll have that mailed to you on [00:37:00] Time to Shine today’s dime and Miss Regina.

So where are you now?

Regina Huber: First of all, thank you. That is really a lovely offer. You’re welcome. So thank you so much. I You’re welcome. I didn’t expect this, but I appreciate it. Yeah. Yeah, I’m in the Leon right now, so I technically spent part of my time in the US part in Europe. I also had the desire to travel a little bit more again in Africa soon.

And let’s see what. Can be done there. I have a few things in the works. Let’s see what happens.

L. Scott Ferguson: Love it. Yeah,

Regina Huber: that’s, that’s where I’m,

L. Scott Ferguson: I love it. And, and it’s, I’m having like with, , Regina withdrawals here in the United States until she gets her butt back here so we can have our pizza and, , chat.

But no, I, I, I miss you though. It’s been, it’s, it was, our friendship here in Florida was pretty awesome. Right. It was just cool. But no, I love that you’re out there getting it done and, and serving, and I love with this new [00:38:00] technology squad, you can hire, , Regina to, to serve you that, .

Through her programs. And really, I’m really kind of intrigued on the freedom coaching, which is a little bit different than I think that anybody’s really ever seen before. And I want you to really kinda do a deep dive into that page. I’m gonna do a separate page in our show notes. Go ahead and look down there.

But Regina, I need you to do me one last solid and leave us with one last knowledge nugget that we can take with us, internalize, and take action on.

Regina Huber: Well . I might have said that last time already, but I’m gonna say it again actually, because never rely on others to empower you. No one can empower you but yourself.

Your power is already inside of you. You have a choice to tap into it or not.

L. Scott Ferguson: Sure the

Regina Huber: choice is yours. There always choices, even when it seems there is none. There are always choices. And if you take this. Really and, and run with it and reflect on it and work [00:39:00] with it, then your ultimate freedom is in your hands.

L. Scott Ferguson: I love that. And it’s just empower yourself squad. That’s one. One thing that I really kind of took away from this is. , I mean, how freaking freaking amazing was this chat with my good friend Regina? They remind us we don’t need permission to live boldly, right? We create everything, even the experiences we don’t desire or prefer, , own it responsibility.

It’s the re ability to respond, not react, but to respond. It’s rooted right in the word. That’s what Regina took throughout her whole life. Knows that there’s infinite possibilities in that uncertainty. There’s teachable moments everywhere. She reminded us. Experience can be a reflection of undigested emotions.

That hit me hard. Really think about that experience can be a reflection of undigested emotions, , and she’s also mentioned the safety is, , it’s nothing external. It’s how we deal with our uncertainties, insecurities, and whatnot. Like the safety is in the present while where she’s just gonna just do it.

Then all of a sudden she leans into her [00:40:00] intentions and she takes action and she’s doing it. She wants you to take a, do a really deep dive into your brilliance, and the way that you can do that is hire Regina. Like get her. She will get that. Brilliance to the surface and help you lean into your ultimate human potential and reminded us that knowing, owning, and showing the value you bring, knowing and owning, that’s you, right?

You know it, you own it, but you gotta show out. You gotta be authentic. Get out there and dance. Go have fun. Like speak to people and dance as if no one’s looking or no one’s around. Like seriously, get out there and lean into your ultimate human. And lastly, that. Never rely on others to empower you. It’s already there.

Tap into it. Get rid with Gina. Have the conversation. She will help you tap into it. I know she has with me in my past and she levels up her health. She levels up her wealth. She already knows up. She’s absolutely stunning. She’s earned her varsity [00:41:00] letter here at time or second varsity letter here at Time to Shine today.

Thank you so much, Regina. I love, love, love your guts. I miss you immensely and I can’t wait till you’re back here in the States. But until then, stay safe. And just level up.Regina Huber: Thank you so much again for having me, and thanks for your awesome questions. As always. Talk soon.
