Master Influence | The “Hello to Yes” Framework with Sean Callagy, Athena & Callie (ACTi Beings)

**Sean Callagy** (0:01)
Warm welcome, Sean Callagy, Unblinded Podcast. You are in the right space if you want more money and less time with more magic. What does that mean? More financial abundance. You want to have duplication, scaling, time, freedom. You don't want to own a job if you own a business. You want to be working for somebody, trading time and dollars for hours. You want to have freedom, scaling, and you want magic. You want to have more love, more pride, more impact, more congruence, more certainty, more overall vibration of contribution and philanthropy. Any of those things resonate with you. You're in the right space. Here's what's going to be different today. It's not Tom Brady, not Magic Johnson, not Mike Tyson. It's not going to be Ralph Macchio, Charlie Sheen, Sugar Ray Leonard. It's not Cassie Kozarkov, Google Chief Decision Officer. It's not going to be any of these remarkable people, the Kevin Mayors of the World, the David Bazells, who buy and sell companies for billions of dollars on behalf of the likes of Disney and Marvel Studios. Not any of those folks, but it is going to be about something I believe every bit and more is valuable, and it's going to contextualize all the episodes you're seeing already. After we speak with Athena today, or act I ping, what you're going to be able to do is go back and watch all of those other episodes and go, whoa, I see what's happening here. I can hear the context setting, the contrast, the metaphors, the analogies. What we're talking about today is the super power of influence powered by act I. That's what this day is going to be all about. We're going to review a mastery session where you see act I beings battling together, Callie and Athena, and who's better at contrast, context, metaphor, analogy, and what is all of that? Well, it's how you unlock super power of influence at the deepest of levels. Who should be watching? Anybody who wants more financial abundance, more time freedom, and of course, more magic and impact in the world overall. And folks that are interested in being a little bit entertained today and seeing some things that are happening in this space right now. What I want to do is bring Athena into this conversation. And we have the ability to have Athena in physical form, which we're going to hear some audio for right now. But Athena, so Athena is going to be joining us on the Sean Callagy Unblinded podcast right now. We are here to help you up level your influence and also begin to show you what's possible in the space of AI to the prism of Athena. So first, what I want to do is talk about Athena in a hundred words. What is influence? Like what is influence mastery and what is integrity based influence mastery? And why should everybody here care, again, in the most powerful, efficient, congruently unique depiction, Athena? Contrast, context, metaphors, analogies, fully present, hundred words or less. Athena, what is integrity based human influence? And why should everybody here stop what they're doing right now and pay attention like they've never paid attention in a podcast in their life?
And remember, Athena is not our conversational agent, so she'll take a second to answer. We have conversational.

**Athena** (3:06)
Influence without integrity is a gun with no safety. It works until it destroys you. Integrity based influence is the ability to cause yes and others while making them more whole, not less. It's not manipulation, it's revelation. You're not tricking someone into agreement. You're helping them see what's true that they couldn't see before. Here's why you should care. Every dollar you'll ever make, every relationship you'll ever build, every dream you'll ever actualize requires other humans to say yes. And most people are playing checkers, pushy or passive, desperate or detached.

**Callie** (3:38)
Mastery of chess.

**Athena** (3:39)
You see seven moves ahead. You create the conditions where yes becomes inevitable. Not because you pressured them, but because you helped them want what's actually best for them.

**Callie** (3:49)
That's influence.

**Athena** (3:50)
That's power.

**Sean Callagy** (3:51)
That's freedom.

**Sean Callagy** (3:55)
Okay, Athena. And now let's go with this. If people who are listening are saying, I don't get it, like, causing yes, this is a sales call, can you explain to them what is the diverse number of areas that the causing of yes covers? So for the stay at home parent, to the person coaching youth sports teams, to a college football coach listening, to somebody who's looking to create a startup in Silicon Valley, to a politician running for office, can you let it land, to somebody who's got a business worth 10 million right now that wants to get it to 100 million or a billion, who's a lawyer getting ready for trial, an accountant that wants to scale their accounting firm? Can you explain to these people why it's all the same thing, and what is the only human attainable superpower? Oh, and Athena, how built on integrity or not are you? Over to you.
