Daily Business Momentum I Katie Craig
What are you scared of? Every single time I grow What are you scared of?

Every single time I grow into something new in my business, I am scared. Every. Time. 

When I hire a new contractor - I am scared. What if they aren’t responsive? What if they can’t do what they say they can? What if I waste my money?

When I launch a new offer - what if no one wants it? What if I am overthinking things? What if I disappoint someone? What if they don’t get the results I hope they do?

When I send a project to a client - what if I didn’t meet their vision? What if they feel disappointment or frustration? What if I can’t work fast enough or cheap enough? 

There are so many fears that I balance every day. Being a business owner often means everything feels like it is all on your shoulders. Even if that’s not reality. 

So what do you do when fear takes hold? 

1️⃣ tell it to get out of your face 😜
2️⃣ remember that you are wildly more capable than you give yourself credit for 🙌🏼 
3️⃣ do it anyway. Take the step. Learn and grow faster than you ever have as a result of ACTION! Action creates momentum. 🪜
4️⃣ anchor into the trust that you are given an idea or an inspiration for a reason. 💡 
5️⃣ simply accept that you’re scared … but ready! 💕

Magic happens when you speak your truth. My favori Magic happens when you speak your truth. My favorite things about strategy sessions is when my clients breathe life and spark ideas they’ve been hesitant to act on. We align the intention with the delivery and the impact on their audience. We remove fears and blocks. We find the path of least resistance to make it happen. And we set up gentle boundaries to maintain momentum. Sessions like this are full of energy, illumination, and potential.

Sinking into that deep knowing of what I wish to keep close and to nurture. 

Letting the old fall away. Practicing rest. 

Which chapters or ideas in your life are starting to fall away? Making space and room for fresh ideas to begin to anchor and form. 

Don’t be scared or overwhelmed with it. This is a natural cycle. Everything changes and evolves. It’s only hard when you resist it.

Those fears? Those doubts? That sense of imposter Those fears? Those doubts? That sense of imposter syndrome? Those are all signs of your next level. Just beyond those mental limitations is a new level of being and awareness waiting to be realized. You can have all the strategy and marketing in the world but they will fall flat until you get behind your own belief in what you offer. Take space to get quiet and listen and follow the ideas that spark you. You are here for a reason.

Business lessons from a 2-year old Sometimes I s Business lessons from a 2-year old 

Sometimes I see everyone else’s brilliant sleep-and-meditation-infused posts and I feel less than. With a 2 year old my experience has been that time, energy and brain power don’t operate optimally. This is my biggest frustration with having a kiddo. I miss my fast brain!

There are so many blessings though and it has forced me to slow down … a lesson I actually really needed. We get what we need, right? 

She teaches me new ways to think every day. I store up my brain power for clients, business activities, and my family. It’s easy to drop into my inner wisdom with clients. Stopping to bottle it up into a social post isn’t something I always want to do. So I don’t. 

Until I want to. Like today. So I thought I’d share some of the latest business lessons I’ve learned from my wicked smart 2 year old:

1️⃣ Be curious. You’ll notice the thing you may have otherwise missed (like the baby frog in this picture). Information is coming at you about what your clients want all the time. If you’re moving too fast, you’ll miss the most sincere input you can get. 

2️⃣ Listen to your intuition. When my daughter is doing something she knows she shouldn’t be, she whispers “no, no, no.” So does your intuition. At least move forward with mischievousness instead of unconsciousness 😉

3️⃣ Be playful. If my daughter is bored or done with a toy, she puts it down and moves on. It’s not a hard decision. She doesn’t force it. She is playful and follows her joy. So can you. 

4️⃣ Use your imagination. Some of the very best business ideas come from playing make believe and asking “why if….?”

5️⃣ Have your moment and move on. The temper tantrums are real. Usually because my daughter didn’t get her way or was incredibly confused about why something didn’t work. Boy do we go through this as business owners! So have your tantrum but move on. Don’t dwell. Find another way. 

Maybe I’ll share more lessons later. For now, tell me which lesson resonates with you the most!

You would think this is a post about relaxation. A You would think this is a post about relaxation. And you would be right. And wrong. 

Two weeks ago, I took my first (since having my daughter) girls weekend away. I’ve been gone overnight and, of course, plenty of days or out for dinners. But this was a full weekend with my girlfriends and the beach. No baby monitor to listen for. No one saying “mama” or “up” 50,000 times a day. As cute as it is, I’ll admit, I was excited to get away. 

My daughter had just gotten over an ear infection 3 weeks prior, stomach bug (and recurring stomach bug) the two weeks prior, and I was finally clearing out an upper respiratory infection from the previous week. My Covid tests were negative and my bags were packed!

The trip was great. We slept in (heaven!). We took quiet time. We sat on the beach and by the pool and talked. We ate amazing seafood. Drank wine. Watched 80s chick flicks and stayed up too late. This this the relaxation part by the way. 

Then I got the text. On Sunday my husband sent me a photo of our baby girl obviously not feeling well. He knew I would want to know. We thought it was her stomach bug popping back up mysteriously. By the time I got home, she was very clingy. Cue the “mama! Up!” Again. Fevery. Fussy. That last another day a half until my husband tested positive for Covid. So did she. I tested positive a day later. Damnit. I could feel the breeze as that relaxation whooshed out the door and it was smothered by a toddler with octopus tentacles. Did I mention I had a new VA starting that week as well?

Such is life folks. I hear it all the time. “I was going to…but then this came up …” Life always keep us on our toes about something. We just put one foot in front of the other. Soak up relaxation when you can. Store it 😛 Then take everything day by day. 

We are all good now, which I am grateful for. My VA has jumped right in. And I have pictures to remember the salty breeze and welcoming pool. Tomorrow is just another Tuesday growing my business and learning how to juggle life. And I’m here for it. 💕

What if you had guardrails in your business? My What if you had guardrails in your business? 

My clients are highly intuitive. They listen to their gut instincts. They act quickly when they get inspiration. 

They also sometimes feel lost in the basics of marketing guidelines. How to scale something. Foundational elements in the business. Creating a strong brand. 

That's where I come in. I provide the guardrails. I heal your relationship with technology. I help you create the parameters that *feel* good to deliver your message. Then set you free to dream and create with that foundation of knowledge. When you're ready to uplevel, we dream again and expand the guardrails. 

This process is SO freeing and SO fun. There are a billion ways to market your business and to scale and configure your offerings. I love to jump into that playground and make sense of an infinite number of possibilities to create a foundational plan that aligns with you, your brand, and your style.
