You see your success as a flight of stairs that youโre climbing - it all feels very restricted, rigid, and linear.โฃ
โฃ
But it doesnโt have to be this hard. It doesnโt have to take such a long time.โฃ
โฃ
Every time you uncover another layer of why you feel unworthy, you remove a heavy brick from the wall of your unworthiness. You acknowledge that part of you, validate that part of you, and release - and you give yourself permission to level up.โฃ

You say you want 10 clients, but do you actually want 10 clients? Subconsciously, you could be resisting your goal because you know you donโt have the time or the resources.
Or maybe you donโt feel good enough, so even though you say you want clients, you actually donโt know what youโd even do with them if you did have clients. โฃ

When Iโve asked more seasoned entrepreneurs what they wish they focused on more in the beginning of their business, they alllll told me - ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐ฌ๐๐ญ. โฃ
โฃ
Because, it all comes down to the beliefs you hold about yourself, the world, money, and making money, honey.โฃ
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

Hey MTV ๐บ, welcome to my crib (๐๐๐ this blog), where we talk a lot about symptoms of experiencing imposter syndromeโฆ.โฃ
โฃ
But on this fine Friday, I wanted to shed light on the good shit that you may be experiencing because youโre doing the werk โจ so, here are 4 ways that youโre overcoming imposter syndrome:โฃ
โฃ
๐ธ Someone says "no" to your offer and it doesn't ruin your day.โฃ
โฃ
Sometimes, a no means not right now or not this offer. Also, just because an offer isnโt right for one person, doesnโt mean itโs not perfect for another. You are someoneโs sparkly unicorn.โฃ
โฃ
๐ You don't feel the need to over-prepare for guest speaking gigs or coaching calls.โฃ
โฃ
Of course, if you do better with notes, thatโs totally okay - but you know your shit, and people usually want to hear what YOU think about your shit - so own that shit ๐ฉโฃ
โฃ
๐ You easily detach from your client's actions, because you know you're doing your best to help them and they have to do the work, too.โฃ

Client experience is QUEEN - but if you do ...
I was thinking about energy and how important it is for us to be energetic and feel good because it helps us maintain our businesses, helps us move forward and helps us with our motivation when it comes to our business.
The main reason I created the Energy Management Bundle is because I found that as I started working with more and more one-on-one clients...I was on calls so much and those were really draining me.
I was really taking on the energy of other people and I didn't know a ton about energy management or protecting and preserving my energy when I first started out.
Then when I started to go on more of a spiritual journey, I started realizing,
"Oh, there's things that you can do to maintain and preserve your energy."
And that's where The Perfect Launch Vault came from.
Then the Energy Management Bundle was born because I was working with so many clients and I was realizing how drained I was and how that was affecting my emotional energy. Because the thing is, when y
...Do you roll your eyes when your coach tells you to access your higher self?
โฃ
โ Maybe visualization doesnโt work for youโฃ
โ Maybe you have a hard time feeling the feels if you havenโt already accomplished your goalโฃ
โฃ
So when someone tells you that how theyโve succeeded is by activating their highest self, you canโt help but dismiss that woo-woo bullshit and declare that it will never work for you.โฃ
โฃ
Here's 3 ways you can actually start tapping into your highest self:ย

Identifying the traits, feelings, and characteristics of someone who has what you desire is easier if you donโt have to imagine itโs you and all of your contributing beliefs & stories.โฃ

If thereโs someone you admire that already has what you want, ainโt no shame in visualizing what theyโre doing and how they may be feeling. In NLP this is called modeling, and is an effective way of replicating a personโs behaviors to make the goal seem more attainable...

Iโm just going to serve you the tea today because Iโm here to tell you that your coaching package is too goddamn FLUFFY.
So WHAT do I mean by this?
I bet that youโre a coach whoโs having no success at selling your offer. Your first mistake is that you have too many offers on the go.ย What I mean by this is when youโre first starting out or when youโre trying to really sell somebody, itโs so important to keep it SIMPLE.ย
Simplicity is something that people buy into. They want to buy because the offer is clear and simple, and the results are tangible.ย
I know what youโre thinkingโฆ Iโm a life coach, Iโm a mindset coach, Iโm a confidence coach. I donโt have tangible results. Oh, you ABSOLUTELY do. When people feel better, they are their best selves, they show up differently and they take action differently, which produces results. So donโt you dare come at me with those excuses!ย

One of the ways Imposter Syndrome sabotages your business is by negatively affecting your motivation. You may feel this way because youโre insecure about your business, you sense that nobody wants your services, and you feel like no matter how much effort you put in, youโre not getting anything in return.ย
You push on thinking that your hard work is the only thing that determines your worth. If you happen to take a few days off it can create a feeling of being out of sorts because you start feeling insecure about yourself and you canโt pinpoint which direction you want to take your business in. That, in turn, can make you lose all motivation towards that particular project or trying to create new ideas. It can take the wind right out of your sail!
For example, letโs say youโre trying to come up with new content ideas for your Instagram, the lack of motivation and drive can impede y...
On the way to Vegas, I was reading Dr. Valerie Youngโs The Secret Thoughts of Successful Women, itโs all about Imposter Syndrome. Dr.Young is one of the leading people when it comes to Imposter Syndrome research. She does talks on the subject, and you should take the time to look into her! The book includes a system called the โSeven Defense Mechanismsโ. One of those defense mechanisms is procrastination, which is the topic of todayโs blog!
Iโll be doing a blog post for each of the Seven Defense Mechanisms, so please keep an eye out for those!ย
I feel like weโve all experienced procrastination at one time or another. If you havenโt procrastinated before- thatโs amazing! Good for you! Although I feel students for example are a group of people who tend to have to deal with procrastination frequently, although it isnโt uncommon to also see procrastination creep into your adult life as...
