OK, we've gotta be honest with y'all. Going into this week's episode, we had zero intention of doing another show dedicated to HubSpot's #INBOUND23 event happening in Boston next month. Mostly because we've already done three entire episodes dedicated to it:
- The Most Bomb-diggity.com #INBOUND23 Strategic Success Framework for Individuals + Teams
- CRIKEY! #INBOUND23 Down Under Roundtable: the Ultimate Guide for International HubSpotters
- 1st Annual HubHeroes #INBOUND23 Breakout Sessions Preview Show
But this week's episode came about unexpectedly, as the result of a conversation Liz and I had earlier that morning. You see, periodically, Liz and I will meet for what we call "human time" where we intentionally put aside all HubSpot and inbound conversations to talk about life.
During last week's "human time," we stumbled upon an interesting topic centered around the question: "What do you do when you run into past versions of yourself?" This is something all of us experience at various points throughout our lives. Old photographs, old interviews or videos, the remnants of old decisions that pop up out of nowhere.
Then, Liz had the interesting idea to apply that same logic to HubSpot's INBOUND event. For her, Devyn, and myself, INBOUND has played a seismic-shifting role in our lives — my life was never the same after 2012. (Heck, HubSpot overall has changed our lives, if we're being honest! Our HubSpot Academy episode digs into that.)
So, no matter whether this is your first time to INBOUND this year or you're a seasoned INBOUND vet, we encourage you to listen to this deeply personal episode. Say what you will about how you wish INBOUND had or hadn't changed over the years, its impact is undeniable. It's built by humans, for humans ... not customers. So, of course your humanity will be influenced, if you're open to it.
What we cover in this episode
- What did INBOUND reveal to you about yourself that you never realized?
- How did INBOUND propel Devyn into leadership positions he never dreamed of?
- What were the most toxic, self-limiting beliefs we held about ourselves prior to attending INBOUND?
- Our stories aren't unique; we know so many people who have similar paradigm-shifting experiences with INBOUND. Why do we believe INBOUND is such a powerful catalyst for so many people?
