Starting point is 00:02:15 Did I get that right, Rubini? Absolutely right, Chris. Thank you. There you go. She has helped over 250 corporate leaders and business owners find their alignment for a renewed peak performance, gaining income, recognition, joy, and success in their lives. Clients who she helps are close to burnout. And those who don't know how to dial up their performance, she helps them make a turnaround time
Starting point is 00:02:42 after joining her success in self-journey to hit their promotion, revenue, and impact goals while being in alignment within themselves. Sounds good to me. Welcome to the show. How are you? I'm super, Chris. I'm really delighted to be on this show with you. We're delighted to have you as well. Give us your dot coms.
Starting point is 00:03:00 Where can people find you on the interwebs? It's www.exfinitysg.com. And the easiest way to speak to me, chat with me, DM me is on LinkedIn. So www.linkedin.com forward slash IN forward slash Rubini Karun. There you go. LinkedIn, man, that really is the place over there. Yeah. I think it's the best social media platform ever.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Plus, there's a lot of money over there. It's very different than the other places where it seems like just a bunch of kids and trolls. Yes. So give us a 30,000 overview of what you do and how you do it in your words. Well, what I do is really take people who are tired and frustrated and overwhelmed with why things are not going their way or why their boss isn't seeing them for the effort they're doing, why they're not getting the promotion, why they're not getting the recognition. They come to me, they are close to giving up and almost all of them have this burning sentence of what is wrong with me,
Starting point is 00:04:04 right? And that's a very sad place to start from and what we what i do is that i bring them to a place of understanding what are their limiting beliefs what's blocking them and what kind of reality we can create together by just tweaking things up a little bit in their performance and productivity so they gain basically everything they want within three to four months. I like what you said about having people being in alignment with themselves or what we refer to in the bio. How much difference does that make in being able to achieve what you said, being able to dial up their performance and find the success that they're kind of been missing?
Starting point is 00:04:43 I get really excited about this question. I jumped with joy with this question because people struggle in their performance. People struggle to get what they want. And when they come to me, what we do is that we get them back into their hearts. We get them to understand that alignment is the way that they can create that next level of performance. And each and every time clients are blown away within three to four weeks. And it's like, why have we been doing it the hard way all along?
Starting point is 00:05:12 Because we've been taught that. And so that dial up is really about the alignment piece, allowing them to tap into this untapped potential within themselves. works every time there you go why do you think the power of corporate leaders is important now more than ever really good questions um we're going through a time of immense change through times of immense change there's often mass fear and it starts with small seeds in people and it kind of grows. And this could be anything from fear of financing a home or fear of not being able to live up to what a spouse wants.
Starting point is 00:05:57 Simple stuff. Fear of just not having the goals that you said you would get at 40 or 45 whatever and corporate leaders have the biggest stretch in fingertips to touch people to create six degrees of change you talk about politicians yes masses listen to them or look to them for leadership. And some people have an everyday touch point with their boss. And you watch the show Horrible Bosses. You hear horrible boss stories. You hear people curse their boss over drinks at lunch breaks. But if a boss comes from a different place to provide this type of leadership where a person feels nurtured where a person can grow and reach
Starting point is 00:06:46 their goals everyone rises together and that's why i think corporate leaders wear capes i have this hashtag on linkedin oh yeah corporate leaders wear capes there you go but that or they should have to earn their cape maybe i don't know, because I've seen some people that are. Well, I mean, I guess it depends if you're a true leader or not. Really? Correct. So good leaders. No, but the thing is that I think a lot of people don't realize that leaders aren't ever taught.
Starting point is 00:07:19 You're a good person, but you're never taught to be a good leader. And then you're just like dealing with stuff. And then it becomes too much. And then you break're never taught to be a good leader. And then you just like dealing with stuff and then it becomes too much. And then you break and then people call you a bad leader. So I think they're just bad leaders who are untaught. Well, there's not much good training for leadership. It's, I mean, you can read books, but there's a lot of coaches like yourself that, that help probably break through. I'll meet people and ask people what's your what's your leadership
Starting point is 00:07:45 style or how do you lead like i don't know i just i just kind of do whatever and uh and i don't know i don't know what my i don't know what my leadership style is and how do you and i'm like how do you lead if you don't really understand whether you're leading or not i hear you and that's a i have this journey, a success in self journey. It's a digital education platform. But what we do is that we allow leaders to understand that in the middle part of our journey, where, I mean, we talk about the keywords like service leadership or connected leadership or authentic leadership. Yeah, that's fine. But truly, who do you want to be and what do you want to create in the mold of your leadership?
Starting point is 00:08:27 So it's an eight-week journey. And they're just like, I don't know. Who do I have to be to be successful? I'm like, don't care about that. Who do you want to be? Let's mold and stretch that. There you go. That's a childhood thing.
Starting point is 00:08:42 Lots of stretching. You believe in the alignment of psychology, spirituality, and emotion. And those alignments make a good leader. Talk to us about what that means. And then what if they're not into alignment or they don't believe in it? Why would some, I don't know why some would not believe in being aligned. So there's this Japanese sort of rock formation or structure where the base is a large rock. And then there are all these like wobbly rocks on top of it.
Starting point is 00:09:12 And it's connected by an axis. To me, because I'm very scientific in my brain and I'm from consulting, that axis is alignment. Whereas a lot of people refer to alignment as sort of like a religious thing. I'm referring to alignment as just coming to decision making with an aligned viewpoint, with an aligned perspective to make razor-sharp decisions to benefit you and the company and the team and your family. So that alignment comes from a place that's not stressed not overwhelmed right and so this concept of alignment is in NLP we talked about we talk about the sixth level which is okay you have your identity your beliefs your capabilities and then what do you then go up into self-actualization
Starting point is 00:10:02 according to Maslow but also what do you surrender to just as a whole god god of the universe whatever what do you surrender to as this is what i'm doing things for and this is what i i surrender things for and this is how i want to create and all that but it's knowing that if you are in an aligned place to create it will happen would you call that would you call that to your purpose maybe finding your purpose impact legacy that's what we explore at the end purpose impact legacy because the people who come to me they have the houses they have the cars they have the teams they just don't know how to dial it up and so let's get you connected to why you're doing it you're not doing
Starting point is 00:10:43 it just to earn anymore you're out of security what's the next connected to why you're doing it. You're not doing it just to earn anymore. You're out of security. What's the next band? Why, why are you doing this? Who do you want to leave after you die? Yeah. The,
Starting point is 00:10:57 the whole purpose of why you do your life and people go through whole lives and they don't really think of these sort of things. Now, when you talk about alignment, you also mentioned healing. What is the healing first mentality that works with the alignment you're talking about? I love your questions, Chris. I just wanted to say that. That's why they pay me every day in meat. That's how I get paid on the show. I get paid in meat. I don't know where that came from. I love it.
Starting point is 00:11:29 The beginning part of my success and self journey, what we do is that we uncover limiting blocks. You will be blown away when I tell you examples of 50-something-year-olds, decades on this earth, unable to speak up in a boardroom because of something that was said during childhood. Really? Now, when we're high D's and when we're like high performers which like i'm gonna use the word trauma is not something i go through people perceive and of course trauma is huge and painful but the smallest bit around a parent saying you think you're going to make it to the big leagues puts a cap on a person's growth. That's a limiting belief that's stuck in there for decades.
Starting point is 00:12:13 Oh, yeah. Yeah. When I say healing, we tap into the multiple layers downwards of what's truly blocking you. Why can't you speak up? They say, be yourself. I don't know who I am. Because in a sandpit, you were told, don't be yourself. Don't get dirty. Don't shine. Don't do this. Don't cry. And so it links back to a lot of childhood, teenage, young adulthood kind of experiences that block people. So we heal them through that to say, let's remove these things. Let's heal you
Starting point is 00:12:46 from the inside because otherwise being balanced and aligned is just in the mind. We don't want that. We want the emotional, like this physiological shift when you feel aligned. So it sounds like you got to balance out your life if you want to be an extraordinary leader and uh be able to inspire people you know you uh you have to you have to have your stuff together first before the inspire is the word you can be a leader with a team and earn enough and be happy at enough but if you want to go in best in case scenarios and dial that up and leave impact, purpose, and legacy, this is what you have to do. You have to have alignment to inspire people. Yeah. You kind of have to work at your kinks, your traumas, your issues, your hangups,
Starting point is 00:13:40 because otherwise people will see right through, uh, any sort of PR or BS you want to take and put up, you know, I've talked about this in the show multiple times, but I always had a, uh, one of those pictures on the end of my desk that reminded me that I had to earn my title every day. I had to earn my leadership, my ability to, to, uh, earn, uh, all that stuff. Um, it would make all the difference. Um, and so, uh, I had to remember that because just, I remember I met so many people over my years in business that they get a title that's given to them and they're like, so suddenly I'm a leader, I'm a manager now. And then they're really, really bad at it. And you're like, like no just because you got the title handed to you doesn't
Starting point is 00:14:26 mean that you've earned that position or that you've earned the right to lead people you still have to earn their trust you have to still build relationships with them uh you have to be a servant leader as opposed to i don't know some uh you know you're not king you're not king. So there you go. There you go. Tied in with that, you believe in, you need to have an authentic voice in your leadership. What's the big deal behind that? I'll give you a story, if I may, to touch upon that. I'll use a boardroom story and I'll use an individual
Starting point is 00:15:03 who's brilliant at data and leads a team of 16 people around data engineering for a very large company, top 10 in the world. And this person was always told, you're just good at data. You don't actually have leadership presence. Wow. Just manage your team. It's kind of presence. Wow. Just manage your team. It's kind of rude. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:31 High performance societies, man. But this person learned that his voice didn't have value. This person learned that his voice couldn't lead. This person learned that his voice was not at the level where he could play with the big boys. Right. And so when we came together, it was almost like, what's wrong with my voice? You know, and we got into this. I love the phrase be yourself because it's so full of BS.
Starting point is 00:16:01 We were told not to be ourselves since young. People have forgotten how to be themselves i have like a personality so uh yeah exactly i have 13 you have 13 or i'll see if i can catch up i'll develop some more i created a post about that the different masks yeah oh there you go yeah and and and what we did was that we really got into why he felt he couldn't speak. And it was just this early adulthood career moment where he was told, just do your job. You know, not so bad, but, you know, just do what you're good at. Just stay in your lane. Stay in your lane. And what we did is that we uncovered almost his voice, too.
Starting point is 00:16:40 I mean, we worked on leadership presence. We worked on having him heard. But we also worked in being confident in his capabilities with certainty. To speak in his value and his truth to his team members, but also upwards, upwards influence to his
Starting point is 00:16:57 bosses. Being authentic really matters. How would you define being authentic? Whatever Being authentic really matters. How would you define being authentic? Oh, whatever you have already been doing and whatever you have done is who you are. And so tapping into how did I react and how did I portray myself and how did I create and how did I lead and how did I inspire? That's your authentic self. There's nothing to do in order to be authentic.
Starting point is 00:17:28 You are authentic. And if you don't like that authentic nature that you have, change it, stretch it, dial it up. Because sometimes when we reflect on who we are as authentic beings, there's something we don't like. We might have snapped. We might have not been our best selves. We might have not tried to perform at the highest level that we know we could have
Starting point is 00:17:50 and were stuck in this, like, dirty dungeon of, like, why can't I? Turn it up. Turn it up. Turn it up. Don't be in the dirty dungeon, eh? Don't be in the dirty dungeon by yourself. You know, get out and, Get out and smell the fresh air. That'll get a broom.
Starting point is 00:18:07 So with leaders, we've talked about how they can embrace change or start to embrace change and improve the quality themselves first. And a lot of leaders are so intent upon worrying about what their team is doing and everybody else is doing that, you know, your points of like maybe you should fix yourself first before you go trying to fix everyone else are really important. So what's the timeline that leaders usually take to change their lives and their teams? Does it take years or shorter or what? As you can see, I'm very high powered and very energetic and I'm very passionate about what I do. I, when, when you talk about a person who wants to change, a person can be very flaccid and very like lukewarm and very like, yeah, I'll change when it's convenient. That person's going to take five years. If I encounter a person who's,
Starting point is 00:19:10 I am scared of what's going to happen in my life. I don't know how to live. I'm not getting recognized. I need to get promoted. Shit's going to go down in the world. Sorry for missing. I want to change now. I can bring that person within two months,
Starting point is 00:19:24 four months and six months completely different life i've done it every single time within three to four weeks five weeks it's like oh i feel a little bit like i'm vibing differently within the second month their team is telling them something's different about you boss within four months their boss is telling them, how did you get this? What are you doing differently? And six months, they're getting regional recognition, some global. Yes. That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:19:55 Just by getting your stuff together, really. So why do you think your process works so well in helping leaders improve themselves? Because I went into the dirty dungeon. I have been in such toxic, terrible environment, stuck without a voice, without recognition. And I knew I look the way I do. I speak the way I speak. I need to do something differently in order to get to a premium level I need to be in order to be the elite and I went into this rabbit hole of
Starting point is 00:20:32 corporate development coaching mentoring programs and everything NLP hypnotherapy trauma therapy I went through all these things by myself and after a year and a half in two years i'm just like this is massively spread out in a way that i cannot fathom how to actually change and when i wanted to start my business i already knew i wanted to start my business i knew exactly what i wanted to do in 2016 i knew i wanted to do this i knew how i wanted to do it in 2020 when i started it i created the program it was once a 12-week program now I'm at like version I don't know six and it's an eight-week program but we hold in honed in to not what only worked for me but what works for this mass uh attraction that I've you know had with clients to exactly
Starting point is 00:21:22 what helps within uncovering, understanding who you are and who you want to be and what kind of leadership you want to create, like the poster on your table. Earn it. Inspire. And then how do you want to leave this world with purpose, impact, and legacy? Let's not wait till we're like 68 to think about that.
Starting point is 00:21:42 Let's start doing that now. Right? Yeah. You don't want to wait and put it off. This is some really important tips. And then how long is your course? So it's eight weeks, correct? It's eight weeks now.
Starting point is 00:21:56 And then I see several different offerings you have on your website. I know you have a mastermind, different things. Give us a rundown on what you offer there. So the mastermind is the next level of the course. So the foundation course is Success in Self. And it's a foundation course where it's eight weeks of just uncovering, recreating and understanding what you want to create. The mastermind is a lot longer. And it's really about tapping into how you can get to the core of your alignment. And it's about how, I mean, I'm not going to say
Starting point is 00:22:27 small words to make it sound easy because people know it's difficult to stay consistent. But what I do in the mastermind is guarantee people this accountability to really get into the depths of joy and happiness. I have someone who's 52. She's a DNI leader globally, a VP of diversity and inclusion. And I said, when's the last time you felt joy in your natural state? She thought, and that's a powerful question.
Starting point is 00:22:56 When is the last time you felt joy in your natural state? She thought for a while, she starts crying and she says 18. Wow. Because then she had to go to the university she got married she had kids she was trying and struggling at her career she's uber successful now but she hasn't felt true deep joy and that's what we do in the mastermind it's nothing to be negated oh it's it's just being happy. Be happy, dude. No, be happy. So these are the things you put them through. How long does the mastermind run again?
Starting point is 00:23:34 Six months. Six months. There you go. So you've got the two different programs. You've got the, I had it here pulled up. It was the Success in Self Foundation and then the Leadership Mastery, which is really getting into the depths of yourself. There you go. And probably developing as a leader as well.
Starting point is 00:23:52 And someone you're proud of. That's another question. Are you proud of yourself? Yeah. Are you? I mean, you've got to feel good good about yourself you've got to be connected to yourself you've got to be like you say your authentic self if you if you can't show up that way you're just like a broken leader i mean if you're a leader at all really yes and you said
Starting point is 00:24:18 the word connected in a part of what we do is help the leader to create high performance teams so that they can step away and unplug from the stress of work to focus on themselves. Because there's no such thing as alignment and focusing on yourself if work is not going well and your team is suffering. So we also help them build high performance teams through connected leadership, nurturing, collaboration, communication, and trust, setting goals through a strength-based matrix so that they can step away. They can focus on themselves. Then two and two work. One and one doesn't work by itself. So you said connected and inspired, and I just launched into this
Starting point is 00:25:00 because that's exactly what it is. So let's talk about some other things. You talk about how there are certain people that are doing this quiet quitters thing and you help team members who are quiet quitters become high performance warriors. Tell us what that's about because that became real popular that quiet quitting was kind of threatening there for a while. So you remember a stage in life decades ago where we're working in a team, but all of a sudden we don't feel like we're moving.
Starting point is 00:25:38 We don't feel connected to the boss. We don't really like the boss. We're not hearing directions. The person slowly starts shutting down that's a quiet quitter i need to stay here to earn money to pay my bills nothing else so i'm just doing the bare minimum with intention just phoning the bare minimum that's not good for a high performance team is No. But when we work on the leader and we get the leader excited about how they can create with joy, alignment, purpose, and impact,
Starting point is 00:26:12 then they're fired up. They're like, I'm not dealing with quiet critters. Let's get down and dirty to where this person is and help this person. And that's where our strength-based matrix comes in because we get the team members to plug that in. We're like, I'm happy to share. I'm like, plug it in.
Starting point is 00:26:28 In consulting, we do all these internal consultant work to hire power a team for performance and revenue gain. So we get them to plug it in. And then the leader works with them collaboratively to say, how can I be a better leader to support your goal? That's powerful. Definitely. Definitely powerful. Powerful. You know, one of the things you talked about is, I just saw your post on LinkedIn.
Starting point is 00:26:56 Have you met your best self yet? I really like that question. I love my questions. I'm just saying. I like that because you kind of think for a parent, I'm like, wait, do I have a best self? And have I met them yet? That's a really important question that kind of opens your mind to some thoughts yeah yeah and no it's no fault of anyone because think about life right we've got all these rungs in the ladder where it's natural to just put your foot up and put your foot up and put your foot up and it's childhood and then it's teenagehood it's always surviving and you do all of that you reach a point you you're just like, man.
Starting point is 00:27:45 Right? And then it's like when we work together, we bring them into understanding that life, you're supposed to thrive. Let's not survive. And let's thrive as who you want to be. Let's create that. But no one's actually talking about who do you want your best self to be. And that's what I mentioned earlier when we create an ideal leadership blueprint who do you want to be it's not out of reach it's neuroplasticity you you set an intention you keep practicing consistent action you feel it you emote it you create it it will happen it's vibrating at that yeah there you go getting into alignment stuff um the uh let's see how do
Starting point is 00:28:30 you uh you talk about uh leaders with health issues and they tend to ignore them don't face up to it and that's important in helping them achieve their alignment and healing i'm smiling but it's not funny. But remember how I said dirty dungeon? Yeah. Those are the things that happen in the dirty dungeon. People are waking up at 3am just being like, what's happening for tomorrow's meeting? Panicking. People are not sleeping. And people are operating at adrenal gland overdrive, cortisol spikes that are causing inflammation in their body and causing diseases that they find out about in like five to eight years. Like, oh shit, I shouldn't have done that then. Too late. What about now? What about we find
Starting point is 00:29:19 out what your symptoms are now? Sleep patterns. If you're waking up in the middle of the night talk to me if you are not able to sleep if you're not engaged with your family members and you feel like i just want to escape i don't want to talk to my spouse nor my kids let me lock myself in the room and pretend i have a meeting all these things are the beginning points of uh adrenal gland overdrive stress anxiety and overwhelm so let's not wait till it's we're almost burned out at level 10 let's do this at level 3 4 5 because there is help life doesn't have to be that hard so that's what i i refer to when i talk about health issues because sometimes people come with health health issues already sometimes people on the phone they're just like uh yeah i'm not sleeping well uh yeah i do have gastric or my doctor said it was ibs or you know i have neck pain and spinal pain and like my chest
Starting point is 00:30:18 is tight issues within the mind tend to develop into the body and reflect into the body i think that's a real big difference um so how can leaders combat those that are uh employees that might be quiet quitting on them what's what's what's the key to maybe you think um leadership can do better at turning these quiet quitters around? So there's two parts to that. The first way is a simple way of asking them, is there something happening at home or in your life that you'd like to talk about that I can help you with? So it's the same thing as what we've talked about with leaders, being their authentic
Starting point is 00:31:03 self, being in alignment, having their life balance in place, their mind balance in place. It's the same thing for those employees and trying to help them not achieve it. And this question can be done without all of that. If a person says, you know, alignment, you know, balance in life, I just want to make my team perform better. That's the question to ask. What's happening in life? just want to make my team perform better that's the question to ask what's happening in life what's happening the second part of the answer is work on yourself first to understand how you might have created that how did you in your misaligned state in your push and struggle and drive maybe create a quiet quitter and by looking at yourself first and healing yourself
Starting point is 00:31:43 first and getting into alignment and high performance with yourself first, then we go to the team member. But normally when a person works on themselves first, the team member sees it and slowly drives up. Ah, there you go. So it sets a good example. Say again? So it sets a good example to the team if you're operating your optimum and if you're using that and inspiring them as well to have them operate their optimum they're going to be more complete and happy within themselves to do more there yeah and then you can unplug
Starting point is 00:32:19 and do more things for yourself that make you a whole person. A lot of people in leadership are stuck in the tactical because they're pushing and struggling and driving their team. But if they create space with a high performance team, then they can focus on the strategic. They can be more excited about their roles. They can create more. They can get seen by upper management more for what they're trying to do instead of being like there you go i love the sound effect uh it's an employee market right now leaders are finding what can leaders do better to retain good talent be better be better there you go it comes back it's in the mirror on us comes back to why i attract people because i set the intention that when people are struggling in their roles and they don't know what to do in creating a better team or creating better for themselves to hit their own goals, recognition, promotion, income, a better family, holidays, whatever.
Starting point is 00:33:20 I set the intention I want them to come to me. And even if it's one conversation to show them what are your blocks and what's creating this, I'm happy. At least they can take it and run. And if they want to work with me, then that's fine too. Right? But it's understanding that you are the key creator of your reality and what you bring into yourself. So work on yourself first. There you go.
Starting point is 00:33:44 Work on yourself first. You know, servant leadership means you serve other people. And unless you're being your best self and doing the best you possibly can, you know, it's hard to ask other people to do that as well and everything else. So give us a final pitch out.

Starting point is 00:34:15 I get really passionate about success in self because it's an eight-week journey and we're bringing people in who have given up on how to do things better or who want to do things better when it's not manic and hectic yet right so i know my promotion is next year in april i know i'm not there yet how can i flip the switch now that's another conversation so whenever they come in immediately we put them through this eight-week journey to recreate themselves on uncover limiting beliefs and and tune up the authenticity bit to be the leader that they want to be to create a high performance team and to leave purpose impact and legacy so we tune that up in eight weeks if they want to continue working with us it's the
Starting point is 00:35:00 same flow of going into the mastermind to get into themselves, to be better within themselves, to have joy and happiness at the deepest part of themselves and their souls, alignment, you know. So that's what we do with the leaders in the Success in Self Foundation and Mastermind. That's the core revenue piece of what I do. On a different angle, I do some work around trauma therapy and healing. Sometimes leaders, group CEOs, I don't want to go through the program. I just want pure play coaching. We do that too, but it's to a lesser event because when I spot something that's wrong, I say, you need success in self first, and then we can do the coaching after. So typically the foundation is what people go through.
