Belief 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗲 yields results.
A study was done on a first grade classroom and their teacher. At the beginning of the year, the teacher was told that all of the students were tested, and that 5 of the kids were gifted. At the end of the year, the students were tested again, and those same 5 children had exceptional results.
But the teacher was only 𝘵𝘰𝘭𝘥 that those 5 children tested as gifted in the beginning of the year - they actually tested normal. HOWEVER, at the end of the year, those 5 children actually 𝘥𝘪𝘥 test as gifted.
Why? Because the teacher 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗱 that those 5 children were gifted. She believed in them and treated them as gifted, which yielded high-performing results.

Belief in who you are, what you sell, and who you help. Belief that it’s working. Belief that you’re on the track. Belief that you’re already worthy, and the rest will come.

1 You don’t 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 want what you say you want.
You say you want 10 clients, but do you actually want 10 clients? Subconsciously, you could be resisting your goal because you know you don’t have the time or the resources.
Or maybe you don’t feel good enough, so even though you say you want clients, you actually don’t know what you’d even do with them if you did have clients.
2 You don’t feel worthy of what you want.
You have a goal to make $100K in your business this year - and even though so many people in this space have done that, you don’t think that you can achieve that based on what you think & feel about yourself.
3 You subconsciously think the thing you want will make you uncomfortable or it will be difficult.
And then if you have to be uncomfortable or the tasks to get to your goal are perceived as “difficult”, you’re afraid that those negative feelings will lead you down the shame spiral or make you feel bad, so...
I call myself an Imposter Syndrome Expert, but not 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 because I have a psychology-educated background and experience with people who struggle with it.
𝐈𝐭’𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐨 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐈 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐠𝐠𝐥𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐢𝐭 𝐬𝐨 𝐦𝐮𝐜𝐡, that I know firsthand how feeling like an imposter can affect every part of your life.
Each step towards my progress was made anxiously and with negative expectation, waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Waiting for someone to look at me and go, “You don’t belong here”.
Waiting for this arbitrary “moment” where I would be called out and lose everything.
My boundaries were non-existent.
I was judgemental of others to protect myself.
I worried about my clients’ results because I thought it meant something about me.
I was always feeling scarce even when I started to make money, because I worried it would just 𝘨𝘰 𝘢𝘸𝘢𝘺 one day.
The way to release these scarce thoughts & feelings so your business doesn’t feel like an emotional energy vacuum?

Why you should hold back, and play small.
Why someone wouldn’t want to buy from you.
𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭.
Because this is the meaning you’re giving your story. And because you whole-heartedly believe this, you hide. You don’t talk about your services how you wish you could. You don’t have boundaries with yourself or your audience/clients.
Whereas someone with the exact same story as you, could be using it as her hero story. As to WHY she’s good enough. As to why someone would want to buy from her, because she’s unapologetically herself and embraces the parts of her that she knows other people can relate to.
And she’d be right, too. Because she’s choosing for this story to empower her, instead of letting it keep her small.

For today's episode, we have an empowering sleep hypnosis. So I just want to remind everybody if you are operating any heavy machinery, if you are looking after any small children, if you are doing anything of the store that requires you to be awake, please do not listen to this until you are able to lie down, relax, and go to sleep.
Because a lot of people doze off during this hypnosis because it's a sleep hypnosis. So I wanted to include this empowering sleep hypnosis. I've included a morning meditation in the podcast before, and I thought that this would be a really cool pairing because when we have limiting beliefs, we are consciously thinking them. So to change them consciously is very difficult because we've spent years and years and years thinking these same negative thoughts about ourselves. And when that happens, we are creating neural pathways in our mind. And...

Hey, Hey, everybody Hugo and I just got home from an amazing walk and I had a thought, and I really wanted to share this with you. And I didn't have time to go to my laptop or whatever, but I really wanted to share, because I know that this will be a great podcast episode. And I encourage you, If you ever get a hit of inspired thoughts to write it down, to write it down or to speak it into existence or start taking action on it right away. Because those inspired actions come from when you are letting them happen. Come from when you aren't trying to overanalyze or overthink the situation. I think I've talked about this on a podcast episode before, but we have certain brainwaves and these brainwaves are actually either conducive or non conducive to our patterns of thought. So in high beta, we are thinking, thinking, thinking, we are analyzing, we are over analyzing. We are...

Hey, Hey everybody. So I just want to celebrate something real quick. It's September 19th and I'm recording a couple of podcast episodes for next month for you guys. And I was checking out my QuickBooks and my business Jillian Parekh Coaching has hit a huge fucking milestone, and that is I have officially created a six figure business.
So I don't really count 2018 because I literally made $0. And it's not really on the books because I didn't exactly claim anything. I think I made like a hundred bucks, not even, but so I technically count 2019 as like the first real year in business. And last year I made $12,000. And at this point I have now made about $87,000 this year in 2020. So that means that I have hit six figures in my business in total, and I'm going to hit six figures in 2020 by the end of the year. And this feels really surreal to me. It also feels kind of...

You guys have heard me talk about belief bridging, about retrain your brain, changing your thoughts, but why are we doing all of this? Why are we reframing our thoughts? What is the benefit of making our thoughts more positive instead of leaning more into that negative way of thinking that some of us end up thinking like? And of course, when you're retraining your brain, you don't want to focus on the negative because when you do, you create negative emotion and you create situations in which you're just focusing on the negative, which doesn't attract good things it attracts bad things, the things that you don't want. Right?
But other than that very obvious reason, reframing allows you to open yourself up to opportunity instead of restriction. So you are training your brain to subconsciously look for the good, or look for the positive, or look for the lesson,...

Hey, everybody. Welcome back to the podcast. Today, we have a very special guest, Dielle Charon. She is @diellecharon on Instagram.
Dielle is a sales expert, and she helps online coaches reach six figures using her proven strategies and formulas, and she has made over a hundred grand in eight months. And guys, she works full time like me. The reason why I even know Dielle is because Dielle was my very, very first coach. She was in my DMs in January 2019 when I was so nervous, like shitting my pants like I don't think I can invest. And she was like, "I know you can do it. I know that you can be successful." She was the very first coach that I ever worked with, and she allowed me to have my first launch ever that was super successful. I got four people into high ticket program, that I never could have imagined would even happen, and it was all because of Dielle.

Today I wanted to talk a little bit about how not strategy got my business to 17-20K months, but how mindset got me to 17-20K months. I know that a lot of people who are very strategy oriented, it's so funny, because you see online, there's patterns of the way that people will do content and something that has come out within the last year, I want to say, is call out culture or polarizing opinions, which are amazing. I think that we all have our opinions. We all have things that we believe that other people may not, and that's what really attracts our people.
But something that I see with business coaches is that you can't just be open to receiving and make this amount of money or whatever, you need to have the strategy and the structure behind it. I absolutely agree. The reason why my business has gotten to where it has is because I've hired coaches. I've...
