Happy Monday Friends!

Last week I had a session that reinforced how much our brains lie to us.

Is your brain lying to you? YES it is!

The other day, when my client was convinced that she hadn’t really made any money from her ideas, knowledge & skills in her business- we uncovered that not only was that a big fat LIE, but she had generated (are you ready for this?)…

—> At LEAST $1.8 million!!!! from her ideas/knowledge/skills since the start of her business. 

Not only that, but with her current ideas & projects we are working on, she has the power to generate so much MORE.

For years, this incredibly talented woman with a vision to change the world was convinced that her work had no value. She believed that she hadn’t made any money from her ideas & that belief limited her time and again with every *new* idea she had. 

With every new idea she had, she would quit before she ever began or procrastinate to the point that her idea just fizzled out all together.

For years, this LIE was limiting her mind, life & her vision. 

This is why MINDSET work is important friends.

YES, it’s about changing your thoughts and beliefs, but it’s also about uncovering the TRUTH of what’s really going on.

Your brain doesn’t mean to lie to you, but it is often so caught up in the wild stories & limited beliefs we all have that it isn’t even aware of the evidence that says otherwise.

What lies is your mind telling you???

Is it telling you that you…

–> Never finish anything that you start?
–> It just doesn’t get to work out for you?
–> You never get what you want in life?

Or something else?

I can almost guarantee that whatever belief you have popping up, it’s most likely a lie & with a bit of mindset work, we can not only prove it’s a lie, but also transform that belief.

If the $1.8M lie doesn’t convince you that your brain is constantly lying to you too, I don’t know what will.

You already have evidence in your life right now that proves you are in fact doing better than you realize.

I know you want more of what life has to offer & it feels like no matter what you do, you still feel stuck. You’ve tried the things, taken the action & it feels like your life has (for the most part) stayed the same.

You don’t need more action. You don’t need more information.

What you need are the tools to shift your thoughts & beliefs so you can see what’s already working & shift the things that aren’t. That’s what I am here to help you do.

4 months with me & you’ll be feeling better, thinking better & seeing the needle move forward on even your biggest desires.

It’s time to break through the lies your mind is telling and see the truth of who you are. I promise the results are going to blow your mind & life wide open.

You + me for 4 months of coaching & you’re going to feel like $1.8 million (or more)

A powerful golden nugget for your Monday…

When you feel “stuck” within any experience or circumstance it isn’t ever about the circumstance. 

Yes, the situation is real. 
Yes, the feelings you have about the situation are real (and valid).

But, friends it is *not* the circumstance that is the block nor is it really what has you stuck. 

In today’s video I talk about what actually has you stuck & how you can overcome it. 

Check it out!

It’s time to rewrite the stories that are consistently running rampant in your mind about the challenges you face.

Remember all that stuff I told you about the brain? Yeah- the stories are what the brain clings to when shit hits the fan in life. It’s time to untangle that mess & get back to the power of YOU. The power to create what you ultimately desire & what you came here to DO. 

If you’re ready, I can help. All you have to do is say yes.

Last week I had someone respond to a post with “I feel personally attacked lol.”

I hear this often & there’s a good reason.

If sometimes my words feel personal to you it’s because I’ve been doing this work for almost 10 years now & I may not know you personally (yet), but I know your struggles.

I know….

->Feeling not good enough, knowing enough or doing enough.
->The constant questioning “Can I do this? Will this work?”
->Avoiding *the thing* that you know will move you forward, b/c you’re paralyzed by fear.

I know sometimes you get in your own way & discount your successes, downplay how far you’ve come & completely forget the brilliance you have right here, right now.

I know sometimes your mind isn’t kind to you & it tries to keep you “safe” by convincing you that going “there” & “doing that thing:…isn’t worth it the risk for failure, disappointment & loss.

I understand it all because I’ve lived it, continually move through it & have helped many, *many* women in your shoes do the same damn thing.

Every feeling you’ve felt is natural & normal when you set out to do things you’ve never done before.

The truth is, you don’t *need* all of those feelings to go away in order to create the joy, ease, abundance, success etc. you desire.

You just need to learn how to move through them & tap into the brilliance you already ARE & that friends is what I am here to help you do.

And listen when something feels like it’s speaking directly to you because it resonates so much, it’s time to stop, take notice & then ACT.  

Inspiration is great & when you see messages that resonate with where you are currently, it feels like you are finally being seen & that the challenges you are having aren’t just yours.

But the question is…what are you *doing* with that inspiration? If you’re not putting it into action, it’s just a collection of feel-good words that don’t actually change your life. 

What are you doing with all those messages you’re receiving? Are you acting on them? If not, this is your sign!

It’s time to reach out & do the damn thing.

More golden nuggets from recent client sessions…

The past few weeks have been full of so many golden nuggets that I *know* apply to more than just the women I am currently working with. These are things we all deal with in some form or fashion so I am sharing them here with you.

As always, take what resonates & leave the rest. However, if there is one (or more) that make you a little antsy, annoyed & roll your eyes…pay special attention to that one. 😉

1. Stop preparing for disappointment. I know it is a human reflex to plan for the worst and hope for the best, but friends it’s also killing your progress. When you are priming your mind for failure & disappointment, you are actively sending out the energy of- “this isn’t going to work anyway, so I’ll just go through the motions.” There is zero creative, powerful, joyful, flowing energy in that space. 

It’s also like packing for a trip to Alaska when you really want to be in the Bahamas. (I’m guessing you don’t do that.) So stop it. Prepare for your success in mind, body, energy & action. You are *so* much more likely to experience success when you do.

2. What do you need? Support from below or support from above. Recently a client said  “All this time I thought I needed support from below, when what I really needed was support from above.” While she was referring to a work situation, this applies to us all!

You don’t need anyone to lift you up & hold you there when it comes to your dreams and desires. What you really need is someone who sees the power in you & calls you *UP* to your next level. Yes, they will guide & support you from that space, but you are doing the things to make the magic happen. And friends, this is exactly what this coaching thing is all about. I already see the power in you & I know what is possible. “The work” is helping you remember that so you can step into that vision with more ease.

3. Inspiration is only as good as the action it inspires you to take. Otherwise, it’s just words you might find on a cat poster and respond with “Aww isn’t that nice?  Do yourself (& your goals) a favor and get inspired & do the thing. 

4. If you’re frustrated & feeling impatient because things aren’t moving forward the way you want/need them to, it might be a reflection of you not moving forward with YOUR stuff (aka mindset, inner thought work & your path). Get busy. You already know what you need to do & it’s likely the thing you’ve been avoiding. (Said with a heavy dose of love.)

5. Lean IN.  When our minds are a mess & the struggle is real, one of the first things we do as humans is retreat or step away from the very support we need most. Everyone does it for a different “reason” & it almost always comes back to limiting the growth we know we want & need. If you have a practice of doing this it’s time to stop. Lean into your support system & if you don’t already have one…what are you waiting for?

These nuggets are just a few of the things that come out of the calls I have with clients & they are so damn powerful!

Just imagine what can come from working on YOUR stuff.

P.S. Remember, I only have a handful of spots available in my 1:1 program through the end of this year. If you’ve been thinking about what this work can do for you & you’ve been going back and forth about reaching out, I highly recommend you get on my calendar ASAP.

You + Me for the next 6 months is guaranteed to transform your mind & life in ways you can’t even imagine right now. Let’s go!

Happy Tuesday Friends,

Today, I want to share with a little mind-hack that will help you get a better handle on all things mindset & hopefully support you in shifting your thoughts & beliefs faster than ever. 
 

The mind-hack boils down to this…
Blame it on  your brain. 
 

Your brain (aka your mind) is a really amazing tool when it’s working with & for you, but it can also be a pain in the butt sometimes because it’s…

– Lazy- It wants to use as little energy as possible to understand & process the world around it. It uses shortcuts, old stories & thought patterns (that we all have been practicing out entire lives) more than it is willing to look for another way. 

-Like a helicopter parent- Anything that is outside of your norm or uncomfortable is often deemed as dangerous. To combat this danger, it will get your entire body up in a tizzy with anxiety, fear & racing thoughts about why this thing you are thinking of doing is absolutely a terrible idea. It screams “danger” at virtually everything that is new because it’s trying to “keep you safe”. 

-Always looking for problems- It’s not that your brain *wants* 99 problems, but it is often trying to protect you from the potential problems that could occur by hyper-focusing on them under the guise that it can find a solution to them all. (It can’t but it’s sure going to try.) Unfortunately, it never really gets to the “solution” phase of things so your mind just spins & spirals out of control. 

–Convinced it “just doesn’t know”- It is convinced it doesn’t know the how, who, what or the path forward & these thoughts are often enough to keep us stuck where we are because we start to believe it too. It wants a full-proof, safe & secure plan with multiple back-ups before it is generally ready to take a step forward. 

-Busy- It’s busy doing all of the above the majority of our lives and it will continue to do so unless we learn to work with our brain/mind & understand it’s confusing (yet good intentioned) ways. 
 

And it just so happens that mindset & energy work (the two things I will talk about until the cows come home) is the key.
 

So I guess the mind-hack is really this…

Blame it on your brain AND interrupt it’s nonsense when it’s not working for you.

When you understand that your brain is just going to do what it does (everything I listed above), then you don’t have to get caught up in the stories, fears, & other nonsense in conjures up. You have the opportunity to interrupt the pattern to shift & change your story, the meaning & weight you give to any circumstance & choose differently.

Different thoughts & beliefs.
Different energy & actions.
Different stories & practices.

And you do all of that more consistently, effectively & powerfully when you do the mindset & energy work consistently & with accountability. 

Mindset is so much more than just thinking “happy thoughts” & saying a few mantras here & there. It’s deep work that requires attention, focus, consistently & often accountability.

??? Can you do this work on your own & see results…YES you can & you probably already are.

???  Can you choose to invest in yourself & expedite said results…YES & you will be blown away by the outcomes.

As always, the choice is yours to make. 

Choose your own mindset adventure & know that if you are someone who has done some of this work already & you’re eager to see what else is possible for you, it might be time for the level-up.  

So, if you’re doing the mindset work & interrupting the brain doing what it does…keep going.
And if you’re not, this is your sign to get busy. 

Remember, you are more powerful than you know & you already have so much that is working for you.

You are so much closer to your breakthrough moment than you realize & a few mindset tweaks are just the thing to take you over the edge.  <3

AND…if you’ve been going back and forth about working with me & you’re afraid to book the chat because your brain is doing what it does…practice interrupting the nonsense & get on my calendar anyway. It will be the best thing you’ve done for your mind all year. 😉
