Sometimes I forget to introduce myself. I am Bunny

Sometimes I forget to introduce myself. I am Bunny Young and I am a stuntwoman turned businesswoman that currently owns 5 companies. I have worked really hard to ensure that hopefully you can have a little reduction in your learning curve from my lessons. I put together 7 of my greatest lessons in a free ebook on my site bunnyyoung.com so if you are an entrepreneur, founder, or CEO that wants to find out what a Masters Degree in Psychology and three generations of business ownership has taught me, then I hope you check it out!

Life Lesson 4,576: "Pay the extra $ and enjoy it".

Life Lesson 4,576: "Pay the extra $ and enjoy it". When you work really hard and you know what you love then match those two things in order to really enjoy life. This is the @jwmarriotthotels in Tucson, Arizona. This resort has a lazy river, crunchy french toast for room service, an amazing view, and is my favorite resort in Arizona. So when we go back to Arizona to visit family or I am going back for work, whenever possible I choose to stay here. Life is too short to not enjoy the ride. I am all for staying in new places and having new experiences all while making sure that you take time to return to the things that make you happy. Where is your favorite place to stay? #crunchyfrenchtoast #roomservice #marriotthotels #lazyriver

In 2018 I did an interview with @barrymoltz for another company I own @boss.onpurpose. Then I was chilling watching @theprofitcnbc and there he was! He was supporting one of the amazing businesses on the show @bensgarden! Super small entrepreneurial world and I'm so glad that I had the chance to speak with Barry one on one and glean some of his wisdom! Congrats on being a big TV star Barry! #theprofit @cnbc @bunnyhas6legs @tvshow @marcuslemonis #nyc #businesscoach #youneverknow #bossonpurpose #speaker #coach #entrepreneur #interview #podcast #entrepreneurcommunity #everyoneknowssomeone

Most kids say "my mom has to go to work". Mine say

Most kids say "my mom has to go to work". Mine says "Mom have a great day saving the world!". Just like running a business, there are a lot of books on parenting. But just like running a business, they are great for guidance but at the end of the day, the best lessons and knowledge come from experience and commitment. On the days that I am exhausted, I do not quit on my kids. I figure out what I need to do for me to be a better person for them. On the entrepreneurial rollercoaster days when you think you hit rock bottom, I remind myself that I am not doing this for me, I am doing this so that the world that I leave my daughters with will be a better world than the one they were born into. That is my why. To make a difference. To make the world, a better place. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Life Lessons Series: Lesson from Bunny regarding h

Life Lessons Series: Lesson from Bunny regarding her reading list "Sometimes business lessons do not come from business books. This is the current list of books in my self care reading time. Some of these authors I have had the pleasure of meeting in person and some books were recommendations from other mentors, advisors, or friends. A few just happen to land in my possession and since there are no coincidences, while reading them I will encounter a client that needs the experience that I just learned about through this book. Typically I have about 6 books going at any one time. Some about faith, some about business, parenting, finances, religion, meditation, or almost anything and everything. I believe that one of the most valuable things that I provide my clients is that I am a chronic learner. I always have been and I always plan to be. By continuing to grow my knowledge, I can continue to share with my clients this ever growing library of somewhat useful information (some of it is just random knowledge that only serves me as amusement). I am always looking for new reads so if you have suggestions would love them in the comments. Also this life lesson is mainly to provide you encouragement to forever be a student of life, in whatever form that takes for you". If you have a life lesson you would like to share DM us and we just might feature yours!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

How is this for an office view? I often dreamed of

How is this for an office view? I often dreamed of being able to work from anywhere in the world. And then it happened. Not really just happened, but I worked my @$$ off and created it. My children were one of the only things in my life that I did not want to fully outsource, delegate, or automate. I had them so that I could enjoy as much time with them as possible. Working 40 hours a week just did not work for me in order to travel and be with them as much as I dreamed of. Most of the clients that we work with have incredible families and personal passions that are outside of their professional passions. They want time to be able to dedicate to themselves NOW not sometime in the distant future or on the off chance that they are able to retire. Why not enjoy your life by design now and have both personal and professional fulfillment? This is the life that we believe in and are passionate about at ABP. We work everyday to make sure that our clients feel more in line with their work and life worlds each and everyday rather than like they have to delay their life in order to finish their work. We believe that this holistic approach to success and natural alignment of passions is what makes the world a much better place.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Here is my office for the morning. No laptop. No cell phone. Just a massage chair, a guided meditation and some essential oils. One of the biggest names in journalism would be proud of this office today. Arianna Hffington said in an interview for The Big Issue "“failure is not the opposite of success, it’s a stepping stone to success”. I think she would really enjoy how many times I had let myself fail along the way. Because she was still more afraid of taking risks and risking failure." Creating space for failure as well as space to release the negative feelings around failure can be really powerful and important. Creating space for you. Sometimes the hardest work that we can do as business owners is to create space for ourselves. Space and forgiveness for the failures, the successes, the celebrations and whatever else this crazy journey might bring for us. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Did you know that according to non profit hub "Nonprofits with engaged boards are 17% more likely to increase revenue and 7% more likely to each annual fundraising goals"? So how do you engage your board? It is more than just about meetings. It Is about a shared vision for the future. ABP hosted The Virginia hemophilia foundation for their board retreat for a power retreat. So many teams report that it is not just the day that the teams take away from. But they feel they have a plan, a shared vision, renewed energy and a clear mission. Having a board reader is not only a great team development strategy but it is often a great return on investment for your non profit.

Should I hire a Life Coach or a Business Coach? He

Should I hire a Life Coach or a Business Coach? Here is a piece from a recent blog we wrote on the matter "Our best recommendation is to consider your coaching needs first, and then look for a coach who specializes in delivering the outcomes you are seeking. If you want to shift your mindset, overcome personal fears, or grow your confidence, find a life coach who talks about these kinds of personal achievements. If you want to focus on certain areas within your business such as marketing, team building, or revenue generation, look for a coach who can speak to the area(s) you want to improve. It is always better to find an expert focused on creating your desired outcome than any broad or generic solution. Those who claim to solve every problem rarely solve any." P.S. James Crenshaw may not be a life or a business coach but he made the cut for this photo because of his amazing life and business knowledge that he shares with the community in RVA and beyond!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

What are you doing? When you sit down at your desk

What are you doing? When you sit down at your desk where do you look to see the next most important thing that needs to be completed? Do you know exactly how you are doing on your bigger picture goals and where they are going to be taking you over the next few months? How about having the accountability once the goals are set to accomplish them or the sounding board to ensure that when you do stall that you can identify if this is something that needs to be pushed through or pushed out of your focus? What impact would accountability, goal setting (a process that actually works), groups support, weekly check ins, and individual coaching to take you step by step through what is important to you and how to make minor changes in your daily efforts to make major changes to not just your company but your life? DEFY is the program that I wish was around when I started my first company. I did not know if I needed one on one support, masterminds, online courses, or in person courses. DEFY not only gives you all of those but also weekly touches. It is a compliation of all of the best parts of my own coaching experience and my knowledge of psychology from a career as a therapist and combines it to highlight and benefit the professional who wants to have time for more than just work. Best yet is that it is free to try and see if it is what you are looking for. Hope to see you in the program! ~Bunny, DEFY Creator and Founder of A Better Place Consulting ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

While speaking on a recent panel on discrimination

While speaking on a recent panel on discrimination and inclusion for Society of Human Resource Management, I said "well I won't tell you how long I have been doing this because then you will know how old I am". Dr. Tracey Gendron a professor of Gerontology at VCU turned to me and said "you should absolutely say how long and how old you are". Her response spawned an amazing revelation and life lesson for me in the aspect that ageism is an often forgotten or lesser discussed bias in our professional lives. Pretending that we are older or younger or making judgments based on age could be holding a lot of opportunity back for our companies and organizations. This is one of the reasons that I love speaking and being on panels is because I get a chance to meet such incredible people like Dr. Gendron and Nicole Anderson of the Virginia Department of Veteran Services. It was such an honor to be on their panel "Digging Deeper the Forgotten Barriers of Unconscious Bias" and I look forward to many other lessons learned through panels and relationships created while making the world a better place. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Did you know that I used to model? High Fashion and runway were my areas of expertise. It was not something that I enjoyed but the experience did provide me with a lot of lessons that I value and appreciate today. There are a lot of those lessons in life. Rather than regret the time and effort, look at what you learned and the knowledge now can put to use to make the world a better place. Kind of like modeling, there is a high level on importance on how you present. What is very important though, is that you are confident in yourself and that it shows to the world. That is one of the most valuable things in modeling and in business. Being confident in yourself and what you are representing and knowing what angle is best to put forward in order to capture the best outcome. While I will still walk an occasional runway or do a photoshoot here or there, I no longer obsess over how I look because I feel the best when I am serving the clients that we support in making a difference. And we as a team, are confident that the world that we are doing is truly making a difference to this world which we believe is the most beautiful thing!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
