#35 - Long-term business success REQUIRES you to take up space

Today's message is simple - take up space.
 
Take.up.the.damn.space.
 
While the message is simple, the application can be a lifetime in the making; a lifetime of trial-and-error and uncomfortable as hell growth. A lifetime of awkwardness, changes, evolution, and things that are messy. Taking up space can be extremely messy.
 
However, taking up space is absolutely, non-negotiably, necessary for your business success and your success as a human being.
 
In today's episode, I share with you:
What taking up space means
My top 3 tips for actually doing it

#33 -Prioritizing your ”comfort zone” is the best way to guarantee failure

The phrase "comfort zone" is a perfect misnomer. Your comfort zone is not the place where you are most content, fulfilled, or satisfied.
 
For many entrepreneurs, it's where your success ends.
 
When you focus exclusively on the comfort zone and prioritize minimizing the awkwardness, fears, nervousness, and discomfort of expanding past it, you immediately dilute your potential for success. Growth happens outside of your comfort zone for you must expand into the next version of yourself.
 
In today's episode, I discuss:
what the "comfort zone" should really be called
what to prioritize instead of the comfort, courtesy of a cute eggshell vs egg metaphor
 
Share this episode with your entrepreneur friends, loved ones, and anyone else who is diluting themselves, holding back their magic, and playing small.

#31 - There’s No Such Thing as Being Ready

Do you feel completely ready to do the thing you want to do? The thing that's going to move the needle towards your goal?
 
Or are the fears and self doubt running the show and preventing you from actually taking action?
 
In today's episode, we discuss this nonsense myth that says you have to be 1000% ready BEFORE you do the thing. Whatever that thing is - showing up and being visible in your business, launching a new offer, or pitching yourself for a new opportunity. 
 
Seriously, it's not about being COMPLETELY READY or FULLY CONFIDENT.
So what is it about, then? If it doesn't require readiness beyond the shadow of a doubt, what does it require?
 
It requires the desire to do the damn thing. That desire needs to be greater than the fear that comes with it. That's it. That's as simple as it really is.
 
No worries sunshine, I also give you a 3 step practical application so you can take this simple truth and actually implement it. Tune in now for all the juicy details!
 
If fears and self doubt are blocking you from showing up and being visible in your business, book a Visibility Primer session with me and clear those blocks so you can show up and build the business (and life) of your wildest dreams!

#28 -Optimize Your Visibility Strategy by Harmonizing Your Energies

Are you struggling with energy management in your business? Do you feel resistance around showing up and being visible too?
 
Or, even more frustrating for many entrepreneurs is when they do show up and still don't get the results they want.
 
If any of these hit home for you, this episode's for you.
 
In this episode, I cover the:
Top 2 mindset keys to keep in mind while allowing your feminine energy to flow in its magical glory
Top 3 tips to boost your feminine energy and keep it alive during the moments of frustration
Most important thing to remember when it comes to the masculine strategy of visibility
 
That top line of marketing; the getting eyes on your business part, requires harmony of all your energies. Focusing strictly on the masculine structures and to-dos or focusing only on the feminine art of receiving will not help you achieve the goals you have. Harmonizing the two, however, will change the entire game.

#26 - Entrepreneurship Is Not a Get-rich-quick Scheme

Becoming an entrepreneur is not about finding the perfect get-rich-quick scheme.
 
It's a lifestyle, a way of life that is not for the faint of heart. The journey of entrepreneurship will show you allll the pieces of yourself if you let it; the beautiful and shining to the mundane to the downright hidden-for-a-reason.
 
It's not about becoming rich, copying others, or being trendy. It's about coming home to who you are and shedding the conditioning that keeps you small.
