How I Run My Mastermind Hot Seat Calls & Get 90% Attendance

Ever wondered how a mastermind hot seat call actually runs behind the scenes? I'm taking you inside the exact process I use to keep 90%+ attendance on our group hot seat calls, from how I prepare to how I use the room.

— Why our hot seat calls are consistently people's favorite part of the mastermind
— The structure: two 90+ minute calls per month, with hot seat groups of 7–9 people (8 is my sweet spot)
— How I prepare before every call by reviewing client notes, so I'm not holding everyone in my head
— Why I don't try to be in "peak energy," and the 10-minute process I use to meet myself where I'm at
— How I open the call: grounding breaths and a question that sets the tone
— How I run each hot seat: asking "What is your ask?", coaching as a coach, mentor or consultant, then throwing to the room
— Why using your room is key in a mastermind, and how to do it
