A KEY element we are working within my group coaching container - the From Impostor to Empowered (FITE) Program, is your most worthy, highest self. People say the next level self, highest self; I call her your worthy woman identity, whatever you call it - it is that highest version of you. The elevated version of you that has what you want, who you want to be, and embodies the thoughts, habits, behaviors, and actions that you imagine youโd embody if you were the best version of yourself.
Highest self work is so freakinโ potent and fun to play with, because if you do it right, you will inevitably become that highest and best version of yourself over time. But how do you actually begin this process? How do you actually start becoming that highest and best version of yourself?
So for one, the reason why we do highest self work is because:
1) It is the quickest route to creating the r...

Attracting clients through showing up is what happens when you have potent levels of self-belief. Because when you love yourself, when youโre confident in yourself and what you have to offer, it is easy to show up and share your work with the world. To put it very simply, that is what creates consistency without effort.
My clients ask me all the time, Jill where the f*ck do you get the energy to show up all the time? And the truth is, I am a very low energy person. Social media makes me tired - BUT, my business energizes me. It excites me to think about signing clients, making money, doing my sacred work. Truly, it does! And I choose to market my services via social media, and therefore, I decide that the energy it takes to do that - is worth it.
So, how do you consistently show up for your audience from a place of self-belief?
I want you to first understand that if this feels like...

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.โฃ
โฃ
But the teacher was only ๐ต๐ฐ๐ญ๐ฅ 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 ๐ฅ๐ช๐ฅ test as gifted.โฃ
โฃ
Why? Because the teacher ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐น๐ถ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ that those 5 children were gifted. She believed in them and treated them as gifted, which yielded high-performing results.โฃ

You donโt feel good enough or capable enough, so you mould your personality, your actions, your services & prices, and your IG stories to please the masses, hoping not to be outed or criticized.โฃ
โฃ
Youโve gotten so used to ๐ข๐ท๐ฐ๐ช๐ฅ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ - judgement or criticism or feeling bad, that you present a version of yourself that is not authentic. Because while youโre posting that youโre a bad bitch, you feel like a fraud, think no one cares what you have to say, and that what youโre doing isnโt โworkingโ.โฃ
โฃ
So what do you think will happen when you start to see success? That โfake it til you make itโ attitude will become even more anxiousness, worry, and lack of transparency/authenticity - because you believe that didnโt get to where you were by being your true self.โฃ

But why would you want to?โฃ
โฃ
It would be like going up a mountain without any water. Sure, you can get to your destination - but how was the journey?โฃ
โฃ
Were you stepping more and more into your power, taking every step in stride, feeling rejuvenated and hydrated? Were you positive youโd make it?โฃ
โฃ
Or were you looking around and anxiously stopping along the way, trying to preserve your energy? Did you feel scarce, anxious, and unsure? Were you constantly questioning your every move and wondering if you were gonna make it?โฃ
โฃ
No, the inner work isnโt a requirement to making money in entrepreneurship. But youโre here for more than just โmaking moneyโ - this is your lifeโs work. You want to grow, scale, build an empire.โฃ

And while the way youโre trudging up the mountain may be working, it isnโt sustainable.โฃ

This Is What I Call The Other Shoe Effect ๐
When youโre subconsciously pushing away good-feeling experiences in your business because when you feel good, your internal alarm goes off, letting you know that something bad might happen.
So you subconsciously push away success or feeling good, because youโre worried that something bad has to happen as a result of your happiness.
This might look like - not celebrating after a good launch or signing a client, feeling the need to overwork and โdoโ more when things are feeling calm + easy, or spending more money than youโre making once you start hitting higher months!
Itโs important to remember that your brain is always trying to keep you safe. Itโs job is to scope out danger when thereโs uncertainty or when your โguard is downโ.
Work on proving old stories wrong, consistently grounding yourself and your body, and practicing better feeling thoughts that wonโt take you down the shame spiral ๐ค

On the playground, I found out a boy in our class liked me. Another schoolmate turned to me and said, โWhy would ๐ฉ๐ฆ like ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ?โโฃ
โฃ
I wondered what it could possibly be. My hair, my face, the clothes I wore? I settled on what made sense to me - the fact that I stuttered.
I decided that this boy wouldnโt like me if he got to know me, because then heโd realize that I stuttered, and that was the worst thing about me.โฃ
โฃ
I carried this story with me everywhere I went. I grew up with this story.
It loomed over me like a dark cloud.โฃ
โฃ
I made every no, every rejection, every side sneer, every negative interaction ๐ฆ๐๐๐ง that I was incapable, unworthy, unintelligent, unlovable - all because I was a person who stuttered.โฃ

Youโre the same. You have something that you lean towards when youโre not getting your way. You have something that youโve decided makes you unworthy, incapable, unintelligent, unlovable.โฃ

Each step towards my progress was made anxiously and with negative expectation, waiting for the other shoe to drop. โฃ
Waiting for someone to look at me and go, โYou donโt belong hereโ. โฃ
Waiting for this arbitrary โmomentโ where I would be called out and lose everything.โฃ

My boundaries were non-existent.โฃ
I was judgemental of others to protect myself. โฃ

Because, it all comes down to the beliefs you hold about yourself, the world, money, and making money, honey.โฃ

And it all comes down to the thoughts you have, how you respond to those thoughts, and then the stories you allow your thoughts to tell you.โฃ
