Hello to you listening on Orcas Island, Washington!

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Wednesdays on Whidbey and your host, Diane Wyzga.

I volunteer as a story docent at Admiralty Head Lighthouse. Sailing in from the Pacific Ocean through the treacherous Strait of San Juan de Fuca ship captains would look for the blazing lighthouse beacon 127 feet above Admiralty Inlet warning them to steer a hard right to starboard, avoid the cliffs, and continue safely south to Puget Sound and on into Seattle, Washington. 

How did the captain know he was seeing Admiralty Head Lighthouse? Each lighthouse – no matter where in the world – has its very own distinctive light pattern, or signature. Like your fingerprints. Lighthouses mark points of navigation, warn about dangerous coastlines, and guide boats into safe harbor.

But no one harbor serves all boats. Different boats – different harbors. Lighthouses don’t chase boats; why do you chase clients?

Ask yourself: 

What is it only you have to offer? 

Who needs it and wants it? 

How will you attract your particular client with your own distinctive beacon of light? 

And, how will they know you are signaling them? 

Once you have your answers, you will be well on your way to business success.  Guaranteed!

Remember the first time you rode a bike and took your hands off the handlebars? And then because it felt fun and scary you did it again until you were streaking down a hill with the wind blowing in your face and your hands up over your head screaming, “Look ma! No hands!” That’s been the story of Diane's life. Showing up - maybe scared but not afraid - because when you fall down 7 you get up 8.
