I know it’s tempting not to move forward until things are
😒 “ready”
😒 “perfect”
😒 “prepped”
😒 “further along”

But what sets the people apart that you follow who have the job ... the business ... the clients ... the life ...

Are the ones who took action.

Who tried and failed and learned and tried again.

Who talk about what they have to offer over and over until it’s clear what they can offer you so that when the time is right, you know who to call.

Who don’t let their head over power their heart and continue to focus on doing the thing they love no matter how many people they’re talking to.

Who take the risk to say “no pressure but I really feel like I can help. Want to have a chat to see if that’s true?”

Who say “I want that” and then go get it.

You have that within you, too!

I invite you today to allow your inner perfectionist to step aside.

To invite your daredevil to take the reigns and live a little.

To take a few steps in the direction you want to go and see how it feels.

You can.

The bracelet I’m wearing says BADASS is Morse Code. Compliments of my dear friend @st8angel 💕💕💕💕

Do I feel that way every day? Definitely not.

Do I try to remember something badass about myself day? Definitely.

Please believe that you are worthy of success and happiness.

There is NOTHING wrong with you if you aren’t where you want to be ... YET.

We go through layers and layers of de-conditioning, confidence boosting, and trial and error before we open ourselves up to receive success, abundance, and often belief in ourselves.

Trust that it’s happening as long as you are taking steps forward.

That’s the key to momentum after all ... ACTION.

You badass.

Pause for a moment. Ask yourself what habits you t

Pause for a moment. Ask yourself what habits you tend to fall into again and again and again that hold you back.

Don't focus on the specific people or events. Instead, look at the undercurrent of the habit.

Why do you let those people in?
Why do the same events keep happening?
Why do you pick the fight?
Why do you prioritize the busyness?
Why do you put your happiness last?
Why do you avoid the ones you love?

Then ask yourself - how much positive energy are you willing to allow into your life?

Is it possible you create chaos to avoid the good stuff?

WHY CAN’T I FIND CLIENTS? Here are 3 reasons

WHY CAN’T I FIND CLIENTS?

Here are 3 reasons I find business owners don't see faster business growth:

1. You're putting all of your marketing "eggs" into one basket: social media.

I know that social media has ALL of the buzz lately but I also know that most of my clients tell me they don't actually like social media and it's a huge energy suck. There are so many other ways to market yourself.

2. Your words and your actions aren't matching.

When I launched The Collective, I immediately felt fear. I then proceeded to listen heavily to my negative inner critic and procrastinated away what little time I did have to market my new offer. My words were saying one thing about what I was doing with my time. My actions were doing anything but. I had to do the inner work to calm my inner critic (she’s bossy!) first.

3. Your actions are lacking.

You know what you should be doing to grow. But if you aren't actually doing it, you are setting yourself up for failure. It's wonderful to set the intention for clients, to hope (really hard) that they come along, and to talk about it with your close circle all day. But that's only half the equation. You have to take action ... every day (daily momentum, right?!) ... and show up.

Some days = crickets (heartbreaking, I know)

Some days = critics (constructive - ok. Damaging? not ok.)

Some days = incredible connections with soul level clients who light up working with you and turn on your light from the inside out.

And the more of those you find > the more you attract > the more fun your business gets > the more change you create > the more money you make > the more you can pass it on!

Wait for it ... You use your intuition every day

Wait for it ...

You use your intuition every day. Are you unlocking this incredible capability you have and using it as a strength?

How might you operate differently if you could easily turn inward and quickly feel …🤗 Who to work with
😣 Who NOT to work with
🤩 When to take action vs when to wait a little longer
🥳 If a potential collaboration is a good idea
🤔 If you should do a certain task today or if it matters
😍 If a new idea is one to act on or set aside

Perhaps it’s quite possible that this life is actually very simple to navigate – we just tend to overcomplicate (read: overthink) things.

Your decisions can actually come quite quickly and easily.

You do, in fact, have an internal intuitive guidance in business.

Are you using it enough?

As a business owner, you’re constantly pulled in

As a business owner, you’re constantly pulled in a million different directions.

Don’t let marketing slip to the bottom of your list of priorities. Make it a point to have marketing meetings where you focus on your goals and designate tasks so everyone on your team can take ownership of their duties. If it’s just you, block time each week for marketing.

Knee-jerk social media posts and poorly written blogs take up your time and won’t yield results. Think through the dates and times you’re publishing content, and consider whether your topics are relevant and timely for your audience. There should be a “why” behind each aspect of your marketing efforts.

If the term marketing shuts you down (and you aren’t alone in that!), just ask yourself, “how do I want to show up this week? What is most relevant to my audience?” Then show up in the way that feels the most exciting to you. Maybe it’s video, maybe it’s blogs, maybe it’s your newsletter. Maybe it’s all of them with repurposed content!

Just make sure it’s showcasing your wisdom and personality! 💕

Sunday morning snuggles. The best.

#mamalife isn’t easy. But moments like this will melt your heart and make all the tough moments fade away.

There were a lot of things I wasn’t prepared for when I became a mom. The temptation for comparison, the effects on my brain, the googling, how my confidence would be affected ...

It reminds me a bit of becoming a business owner. We go through all these layers in life. Layers of challenges, followed by sweet moments, followed by questioning, followed by confidence and then we start over. Each layer reveals something about ourselves.

If you can focus on the sweet moments and when they’ll come again, it makes all the strife and in between times worth it.

Then these sweet Sunday snuggles make you forget everything else 💕

Let’s talk about the ISH

I just had a conversation with the dynamic, fun, honest and always incredibly insightful @beck_keen about limiting beliefs.

I shared a belief that if I step into a leadership role, I’ll be judged.

What does my limiting belief do for me, she asked?

Right. I’ve also asked this question before. My response was...it keeps me safe. Quiet. Seen and not heard. Small.

She said so it keeps you safe-ISH.

Right again. Because if you’re truly safe then you’re:
👏🏼 expressing yourself honestly
👏🏼 teaching what you know
👏🏼 reaching people who need your message
👏🏼 standing confident in your knowledge and passion

Instead, when you’re safe-ISH you’re ...
😑 unfulfilled
😑 struggling
😑 fighting yourself
😑 silencing your own voice
😑 staying stuck in the same place
😑 fearful of your own wisdom
😑 putting other needs above your own

DITCH THE ISH

You’re far more safe IN your genius than blocking it.

Thank you Becky for reminding me of that this morning.

We all use intuition every day. It’s that silent

We all use intuition every day. It’s that silent internal nudge that happens when something feels right or wrong. I wonder how often entrepreneurs tap into this secret, but potent power – their business intuition.

You know you’re using your business intuition when you find yourself saying things like:
🤔 “I just had a feeling…”
🤔 “Something told me to ___.”
🤔 “It just didn’t feel right.”
🤔 “It was so easy to do ____, because I just got excited about it and things just flowed.”
🤔 “My gut is telling me to do ____.”

I used to wonder if there was room for intuition in business. I know that I use it in my daily life. I rely on it constantly in my decision making. Yet, I find I question it more when it comes to business.

Interesting, huh? I start to wonder if I am overthinking, second guessing, comparing, or trying too hard.

My clients do this, too! I chuckle every time I hear a client express a frustration over a business relationship and then say, “but I knew better!” (No, I’m not laughing at them. Trust me, I’m laughing with them.) I’ve been there 100%.

Usually it involves scenarios like this:
🚩Taking on a client that felt wrong or had lots of red flags
😤 Agreeing to extra requests that you knew would end up tying up your time and energy with little to no reward.
😖 Forcing a new service, launch, or offering when the timing just felt wrong.
👩🏻‍💻 Staring at a computer to do a task when you didn’t feel like it … and not getting it done that day and then feeling guilt.

Business owners deal with a lot of stress. Sometimes we find ourselves ticking off tasks so fast, we forget to slow down. Racing through the day is a sure fire way to cut yourself off from your own intuition.

Think of it as losing signal to your own inner guidance and decision making center because there’s too much static to really hear the message.

So, the question begs to be asked … can business intuition help you grow your business and feel more peace of mind when you make decisions?

@deemontie and I say YES and we are showing you how to use (and trust) your intuition as your most potent secret asset in today’s workshop at 1p EST.

Ever meet someone and KNOW they are meant to be in

Ever meet someone and KNOW they are meant to be in your life?

Ever had an idea that just went off like a thousand lightbulbs?

That’s what meeting @deemontie was like initially. And our lightbulbs have been going crazy ever since with possibilities and synchronicities in what we teach.

“You take these complex theories and make them so simple.” We say this to each other weekly.

Dee is a master at helping you to tap into - and trust - your own intuition. That inner guidance we all have. She channels the most grounded, beautiful messages for simplifying life, business, inner doubt ... you name it.

I facilitate momentum - action - movement behind ideas. I have years of experience in design, marketing and business. I take the moments you’re staring at your computer asking “how do I start?” And I give you the road map.

Between Dee and I, we facilitate an easy flow of decisions to help you unearth the tendrils of ideas, communication styles and sometimes boundaries that will spark action. That action leads to progress and that progress creates momentum. Confidence. And a reminder that it doesn’t have to be hard!

Navigating marketing is exhausting with possibilities to get the word out.

Pay attention this week. How often do you lead with your intuition vs what you feel you should be doing?

Join @deemontie and I this Tuesday to learn how to weave intuition and action together to take the guess work out of your next steps. 💥 link to join is in my bio 💥

You have an internal intuitive guidance in business. Are you using it enough?

Ever had that intuitive nudge that you …
🧨 shouldn’t take on a certain client but you did it anyway?
🧨 are putting too much energy into a marketing avenue you hate?
🧨 could wait on a certain task even though you had it on your list for today?

💡 are on the verge of something awesome in your business?
💡 have clients waiting in the wings that you don’t know how to tap into?
💡 could be marketing in a more effective and aligned way?

If so, then you definitely want to check out my blog. I’m talking about what intuition is. Whether there’s room for it in your business. And, how your business might grow if you trusted your intuition more.

You can also get a taste of this in my live this afternoon with @deemontie on her page at 3p ET!

It’s okay to ask for the sale, I promise!

A strong call to action is a key part of any marketing piece. Yet you can encourage would-be clients to take that next step without sounding like a cheesy used car salesman shouting at them from a TV commercial.

Your words can 💯 feel authentic and natural, and shouldn’t include phrases like “Hurry! This deal is going fast!” or “We’ve got a limited time offer for you!” If you’re Target or Wayfair and you’re trying to sell coffee tables, this kind of language is okay. If you’re a small service business or have a small product line, it’s off-putting to those who are considering working with you.

Instead, state clearly who the offer is for, how it can benefit potential clients, what problem it can solve, and then don't be afraid to invite them to sign up.

Every few months I end up talking with a business

Every few months I end up talking with a business owner who wants to do the core of their work but wishes they could offload everything else. Sometimes we forget that the grass isn’t always greener.

When you own a business, you also become the provider, bookkeeper, marketer, admin, and sales team.

If you just want to hire other people to do the work, then #realtalk ... you may be happier working for someone so you can focus on doing just what you love.

Owning a business is not the easy path. There are so many hats to wear, so many details to figure out.

Once you reach a certain income level, you can absolutely contract out aspects of the tasks you don’t enjoy to team members you do love.

IF, however, you just want someone else to do all the work ... then you don’t really want to own a business.

Imma ruffle some feathers with this one probably.

Imma ruffle some feathers with this one probably.

Yes, I have a marketing background.
Yes, I know promises sell.
Yes, I know you can provide what you’re saying.

The problem is … with the big promises in marketing these days … we sometimes unconsciously set an unrealistic shame cycle and expectation for our clients.

If I promise you’ll be making six figures in your business (which you’ll never hear me say), and you don’t reach that goal, then we’ve just sparked a cycle of:
- shame: that you didn’t “accomplish” what was promised.
- frustration: that you didn’t get out of coaching what you were sold.
- disappointment: in yourself that you didn’t “do it the right way.”
- avoidance: of other programs out of fear that they won’t work.

Gross. Yuck. Ewww. Let’s not, thanks.

I know that in marketing language, in order to actually connect with our clients, we need to discuss outcomes, but the sticky part is that we are sharing what could be possible if you implement the tools being taught. That doesn’t mean every client will take action in the same way or take action AT ALL!

I much prefer the honest truth of outcome possibilities, and added guidance, accountability, and support for those inevitable moments when you do get stuck or experience fear. You’ll get much farther, much faster, without the burden of some massive promise hanging over your head.

Let your journey to success be YOUR journey to success. What do you think?
