YOU ARE A MAGNET, NOT A NET.

Magnet: Alignment. Integrity. A clear frequency. Attracts what is right and naturally repels what is not.
Effortless energy, authenticity as a frequency.

Net: Performance identity. Collecting pieces of other people. Inconsistency. Insecurity. Inauthenticity. The trap of becoming who you think you should be.

Two stories to anchor the magnet vs net philosophy:
• Net story: Triathlete identity, performance-driven community, pretending to enjoy running, discovering that only relationships aligned with the real you actually remain.
• Magnet story: Firing a misaligned client, walking away from significant revenue, immediate freedom for the team, aligned business showing up almost instantly.

Takeaway:
The Magnet is your values in motion. The Net is what happens when you abandon them.
