The three fears of entrepreneurs

Watch out, because I’ve got a bone to pick (and yeah, it’s because I picked it raw and real in the first 1.5 years in my business.)You see, back then I was doing all the things - blogging, photoshoot, website design, creating products (that no one wanted), investing in tech, like, everything...Except for making money.My husband even had a joke back then, that I couldn’t get 15 minutes into a Netflix show without whipping open my computer and getting to work.Fast forward till now...And I just finished watching 2 glorious hours of Ancient Aliens...sans computer, and sans baby.I enjoyed every single second of it. No laptop. No phone. No kiddo even (he was in school.) Conquer your fears and tap into your reign. Click to read the full blogspiration.

You CAN'T steal this.

It boggles my mind when I see this come up in business - stealing customers. Gasp! Oh no, say it ain’t so! And not in a “How could someone do that to someone else?” No, no, no… It’s in a “how can someone think it’s even possible to “steal” a client?” Like, do you own them? Are you their master? And are they your slave? Because dear Lord, if we head down that road, we’re headed for trouble. Discover a mindset of abundance and tap into your reign. Click to read the full blogspiration.

What it really means when you're "too busy"

When I was younger I used to PRIDE myself on being busy, “Better busy than bored,” I’d announce, beaming at my packed schedule with massive gratitude.I looooved what I was doing. I felt in alignment, so being “busy” never bothered me because it fueled me on a soul level (and work also allowed me to escape dealing with things in my romantic relationships - but that’s another story for another day). It was about a year into teaching Pilates that I was blessed with a paradigm shift around “busyness.” Discover your real priorities and tap into your reign. Click to read the full blogspiration.

The #1 reason why people hire you.

“Why would anyone want to hire me? There are so many others in my industry. I just feel like I don’t compare.”“You’re right,” I said.Her mouth dropped open. I don’t think my client was expecting me to agree with her, when she was so used to me challenging her excuses.“Your industry is rapidly growing,” I continued, ”And, yes, there are definitely people way ahead of you, making more money, with larger followings.”“So how do I breakthrough?” she asked. I could feel her frustration through the Zoom screen.“Perhaps that’s the wrong question. Let me ask you this...Why did you hire me?”Without even a pause, “Well, your energy, and your background, and how you’ve helped other people.

Are you listening to a BUSY-Ness Consultant or a Busy Consultant

One of the trends I absolutely hate in my industry as a coach is seeing coaches with LITTLE TO NO business experience in their coaching business, suddenly turn into a “business coach” because they realized it was more lucrative. Yet, they had no past success business...and no proven results of what works. They have no track record or results. So they give their clients all this busy-work - post on social media, rebrand, build your website, show up on Insta Stories every single day, do podcasts, and do more podcasts, launch a Youtube channel, provide value ...so much value ...tons of value ...without truly knowing business.

Ever have that one thing that keeps recurring in your life every time you feel like you’re leveling up? For me, it’s around rejection. I have had to do a lot of healing around people leaving. I’d reject parts of me - the silly, the weird, the dramatic, the ultra-girly, the ballerina - or parts that I thought would allow me to fit in, only to be rejected. HINT: Deep down, humans aren’t stupid. They know when you’re faking it. Sometimes they may not want to know that you’re faking it - but faking it can be felt just as deeply as feeling it.

Oversaturated markets of Monets.

I know pretty much nothing about art. Other than a half a semester of art history in high school, where basically my only takeaway was understanding the difference between Baroque and Rococo because of that joke Cogsworth makes in Beauty and the Beast, I am pretty much lost in the art world. I only know what I like...and what I love. I love impressionists - yeah, all the stuff you don’t need contacts for and requires a hint of imagination and feeling, that’s my jam.
