There are seasons when life feels loud.When the world is rushing.When you’re trying to hold the center while everything around you keeps shifting.

And then there comes a moment — usually subtle, quiet, almost unannounced — when you realize:

* It’s time to pause.

* To breathe.

* To reset the inner landscape before stepping into what’s next.

This episode is about that moment.

As we edge toward a new year, most people wait for the calendar to tell them who they should become. But purpose-driven people, people who want to build with meaning. Prepare differently.

* They plan from intention, not pressure.

* They build from alignment, not hustle.

* They lead families, businesses, and themselves from a clarity that comes from the inside out.

Welcome to Off Topic, but On Point.I’m Odette de Beer — wife, mother, strategist, and a woman who believes the heart must be touched before the mind can be influenced and the hands can be empowered.

With me are two of my closest friends:Pastor Christo Pretorius and Dr. Janine Do Cabo.

And today, we’re going to reflect, reset, and reframe what it truly means to step into a new year better, not just busier.

🔹 Segment 1: Reflect

Before you rush into vision boards and goals, reflection anchors you.Reflection is not about looking back with regret — it’s looking back with revelation.

In this segment, we explore:

* What this year revealed about who we are becoming

* The identity shifts we didn’t see coming

* The habits that helped us… and the ones that hurt us

* The emotional patterns that keep repeating themselves

* What surprised us most about this season

Reflection is the doorway to clarity — and clarity collapses confusion.

🔹 Segment 2: Reset

Resetting is not retreating.Resetting is recalibrating.

It’s the internal shift where you say:“Before I step into more, I must make space for better.”

In this segment, we discuss:

* What we’re letting go of before the new year

* The internal narratives we’re rewriting

* How to reset your emotional rhythm

* Why rest is not the absence of work — it’s the strengthening of alignment

* The power of slowing down to speed up

Resetting is the quiet courage leadership is built on.

🔹 Segment 3: Reframe

Reframing is where hope and discipline meet.It’s where you decide to see your life through a different lens — not denial, but direction.

In this segment, we unpack:

* How to step into a new year with intention, not illusion

* Why reframing isn’t pretending — it’s positioning

* The story you tell yourself about your future

* Why identity shapes outcomes more than goals do

* What we’re reframing personally as we cross into a new chapter

Reframing is the art of stepping into the same world with a stronger perspective.

🌟 Final Thoughts

Stepping into a new year isn’t about becoming a new person.It’s about becoming a truer version of the person you already are.

When you reflect, you gain understanding.When you reset, you gain strength.When you reframe, you gain vision.

And vision… changes everything.

In this powerful and honest episode, Dr. Janine Do Cabo and Christo Pretorius unpack the heart behind The CEO Collective, not as a networking event, but as an ecosystem of high-capacity leaders building legacy through clarity, capacity, and cadence.

What started a decade ago has now become a leadership movement shaping the modern CEO. This episode explores how growth happens when trust is built, when leaders stop posturing and start pouring, and when the right people get in the room.

Whether you’re a founder, strategist, executive, or business owner — this isn’t just another event. It’s a space where failure becomes feedback, co-opetition replaces ego, and full calendars meet full cups.

🎧 Listen if you:

* Are a CEO, founder, or high-capacity leader feeling isolated or under-supported

* Want to experience deeper, more authentic leadership conversations

* Believe growth is not just personal, it’s communal

* Are tired of the performance-based business culture and crave real connection

* Are curious about starting your own CEO Collective in your city

🔑 Key Themes:

* From Idea to Impact: The 10-year journey behind the Collective

* Why the Room Matters: Beyond Zoom and surface-level connections

* Cadence Creates Progress: What happens when growth becomes rhythmic

* Failure is Feedback: Changing the narrative around mistakes

* Co-opetition Over Competition: Why collaboration wins

* The CEO Promise: Clarity. Capacity. Cadence.

* From Networking to Net-Worthing: How community creates currency

* Scaling with Soul: How the Collective is expanding into cities and provinces

💬 Memorable Quotes:

* “The future is us —> not ego, but eco.”

* “People buy from people they like, love, and trust. That’s why community is the currency of the future.”

* “If you’re too busy to attend, that’s exactly why you need to be in the room.”

* “You don’t need another mastermind. You need a room that mirrors who you’re becoming.”

* “AI might accelerate knowledge, but only authenticity accelerates transformation.”

* “Stop chasing rooms. Start elevating the one you’re in.”

The Myth: You Need to Do Everything Manually to Stay Authentic.

The truth?Authenticity is a system.One that runs in the background while you lead, sell, serve — and live.

This week on 10 IN10TIONAL Minutes with Janine, I sit down with Tuli, a quiet force in the tech world who’s helping coaches, consultants, and creatives build systems that don’t just work — they win.

Tuli doesn’t believe in automation for the sake of it. She builds tech that respects your brand voice, protects your peace, and creates bookings in your sleep.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by tech, lost in your CRM, or stuck duct-taping platforms together — this conversation will recalibrate the way you think about systems.

Key Moments You Don’t Want to Miss

* Why systems are the soul infrastructure of any coaching business

* The 3 mistakes every coach is making with tech — and how to fix them

* What Tuli learned inside Marketing Cosmetics™ — and how it helped her scale smarter, not noisier

* How to use AI without losing your voice

* Why the backend of your business reflects the belief system of your brand

* One thing every founder should automate this month — no matter what

What You’ll Walk Away With

* A mindset shift: from managing tech to mastering it

* Real insight into tools that talk to each other (not just exist on your laptop)

* A strategy-first approach to automation

* Permission to scale without losing the human connection

* A real-world example of what happens when you combine Marketing Cosmetics™ with systems thinking

Friends,

We just wrapped a 🔥 new episode of Off Topic but On Point, and I have to tell you — it hit different.

We weren’t talking about strategy. Or scaling. Or even social media.We were talking about something more primal, more personal, more powerful:

👉 Your body.👉 Your strength.👉 Your ability to lead, build, and endure — starting from the inside out.

Because here's the thing:

You can’t show up sharp in your mind if you’re falling apart in your body.

In this episode, I’m joined by Odette de Beer (The Alchemist) and Christo (The Expander) as we break open a truth many leaders overlook:

🔥 Fitness is not about how you look. It’s about how you last.

Thanks for reading 10 IN10TIONAL Minutes with Janine! This post is public so feel free to share it.

💥 Why This Matters

Inside my book IN10TIONALITY, there’s a chapter called “Intent for What Makes You Stronger.”

It’s not about hustle.It’s not about muscle.It’s about mental resilience, spiritual alignment, and emotional durability — and how your physical body plays a massive role in all three.

“When you strengthen your body, you send a message to your soul: I’m here for the long haul.”

That’s why fitness matters.That’s why movement matters.And that’s why I stopped trying to fit someone else’s routine — and found my own.

🚴‍♀️ My Journey: From Forcing It to Finding Flow

People told me to run.

I tried.

And I hated it.

I hated every step, every breath, every guilt trip that came with it.

But then… I found cycling.Then I discovered strength training.And I realized: movement doesn’t have to be a punishment — it can be permission.

Permission to clear your mind.To build discipline.To prove to yourself that when you want to quit — you won’t.

Those reps? They’re not just for your body.They’re rehearsals for the resistance you’ll face in real life.

🎙️ What We Talked About in This Episode

✨ The mindset shift that turns exercise into a leadership tool✨ How your daily discipline in the gym mirrors your mental grit in business✨ What Christo teaches about capacity and stewardship✨ Odette’s take on alignment and emotional regulation through movement✨ Why intentional strength is one of the 10 pillars of a rewarding life

🧠 My “MOVE” Framework for Building Intentional Strength

You don’t need a 90-minute gym session.You need rhythm, purpose, and consistency.

Here’s how I approach it:

* M – Make it joyful. If you hate it, you won’t do it.

* O – Own your rhythm. Morning workouts aren’t holy. Consistency is.

* V – View it as mindset training. Push your limits here, expand them everywhere.

* E – Energise yourself daily. Movement creates mental momentum.

💣 Truth Bombs From the Episode

“Fitness isn’t selfish. It’s foundational.”

“Mental resilience is built in the reps no one sees.”

“Your body is your first assignment. Steward it like your life depends on it—because it does.”

💬 Before You Go…

If you’ve been struggling to stay focused…Feeling stuck or sluggish in your business…Or wondering where your motivation went…

Check in with your body.Because your breakthrough might not be waiting on another mindset tip —…it might be waiting on your movement.

Where we don’t just talk about strategy…We implement it. We finish it. We win with it.

“Let me say it straight: talkers don’t change the world — finishers do.If you’re always setting goals but rarely hitting them, you might be stuck in Flaker mode.

Today, I’m calling it out — and calling you up — to become the kind of person who doesn’t just dream it, but actually delivers it… on purpose.”

Hey IN10TIONALIST,This is Dr. Janine Do Cabo, your growth strategist and The IN10TIONALIST — and today we’re talking about a conversation that might sting a little… but it could also shift everything for you.

Let’s talk about the two kinds of people in every room — and in every mirror:

The Flaker and the Finisher.

We all start off as dreamers. We have goals, vision boards, ideas. But somewhere along the road, most people get caught in a loop of trying instead of doing, of talking instead of finishing.

Let me break it down…

The Flaker

This is the person who means well. They’re full of plans, promises, and post-its.

They:

* Set deadlines, but never meet them.

* Make commitments, but always have a story.

* Fill the room with noise, but rarely with value.

* Talk more than they take action.

They’re the masters of overexplaining and underperforming.They say they’re “working on it” — but months go by, and nothing’s shipped, launched, or lived.

Let me be clear: flaking isn’t a character flaw. It’s a clarity flaw. It’s the result of a life misaligned with IN10TION.

Now, The Finisher

The Finisher isn’t necessarily the loudest, smartest, or most gifted — they’re just the most consistent.

They:

* Set a goal and reverse-engineer the how.

* Align their priorities with purpose.

* Show up when it’s hard — not just when it’s convenient.

* Don’t chase applause. They crave alignment.

Finishers don’t need hype — they have habits.They don’t just have dreams — they have direction.And they finish not just because they can — but because it’s who they are.

So What’s the Difference?

One Word: IN10TIONALITY

IN10TIONALITY is the power that makes finishing possible — and purposeful.

When you align your time, energy, and effort with what truly matters, the results aren’t just “done”…They’re fabulous.

That’s what happens when the Finisher steps up with focus.

Your IN10TIONAL Moment:

I want you to reflect — are you spending more time explaining why it’s not done,or intentionally building the life and business that actually aligns with your vision?

Because here’s the truth:You don’t need more goals. You need more follow-through.

If this hit home — don’t just listen and leave.

* Subscribe for more IN10TIONAL moments — where strategy meets soul.

Where we don’t just talk about strategy…We implement it. We finish it. We win with it.
