the fabled “bargain-bin breakthrough”
I came across the most interesting post on my social media feed a few weeks ago. It was a long, vulnerable post where a woman confessed that she was finding it overwhelming to juggle her growing career, all the new clients coming in, hiring people to delegate things to and managing her home life on top of it all. Then she did an interesting thing… she asked everyone for “advice on how to expand [her] capacity” to handle it all without sabotaging her momentum and growth. The comments poured in with people offering all sorts of time management hacks, “tips”...
evade and avoid
I speak to hundreds of women about money every year. Not just clients, but also women interested in working with me who book exploratory sessions. At the end of those conversations, we always talk about money and what they want to invest in working with me. Ten years into this business, I’ve had around a thousand of these calls. And I’ve learned A LOT about the stealthy ways in which people sabotage their money and even reject money that is wanting to come to them. The way a woman shows up for and reacts to the money part of her...
scary stalker
A few weeks ago I was speaking with a client about a big problem that had popped up for her recently. An irate customer who was obsessed with demanding all his money back, even though she had responsibly delivered the service he paid for. He was borderline stalking her online and kept threatening her over email. Then in the same week, I spoke with another client who was having a similar experience. A woman had signed up for one of her programs and seemed to think that 38 years of problems could be solved in one 3 hour VIP...
contagious money thoughtforms
Me and clients eating dinner at the top-rated restaurant on the island of Santorini during a mastermind retreat in Greece A few months ago, I was on the phone with a woman who had built a gorgeous business with lush retreats in tropical locations. One look at the pictures of her events and you’d be left drooling. The flowers! The vistas! The warm pictures of beautifully decorated rooms where her clients came together! Except she had one problem. She had figured out exactly how to make what she does ‘work’. This meant, she had finally figured out a proven...
daddy issues, money issues.
Picture of a client at one of my mastermind retreats in Santa Barbara. Several years ago, I was scrolling through Facebook when yet another ad from some ‘guru’ offering to ‘triple my revenue’ popped up. I rolled my eyes, clicked ‘hide ad’ and moved on. I’d spent two years stuck at $300,000 in revenue in my business at that point. I’d hired at least 5 - 6 different coaches and experts, read at least three books on the topic and been tempted by at least fifty social media ads (of which 20 I bought something from) that promised the...
sore tush
A few days ago I got this comment on Wednesday’s blog post about ‘Money Ghosting’ aka how we go into avoidance around money. I was thrilled to receive that message because yes, ‘not being able to make the days work’ is one of the ways that we go into avoidance around working with our Money Capacity. Don’t understand why? Have you heard yourself saying the same thing? If so, read on. First, I know how you feel! This year I decided to study Herbalism (plants have always been a passion of mine). Going to Herbalism school while running my business,...
hamster, meet money wheel
A picture of one of my clients on retreat with me in Santa Barbara A few years ago, I found myself on the phone with a client who couldn’t stop crying. She’d been running her business for three years and with a lot of hard work built it from a tiny passion project into a thriving business. What I especially loved about her business is how soulful and creative it was. And it was exactly because of this that her business had grown and touched the lives of so many people. Except, here she was, almost inconsolable. This beautiful, creative...
money ghosting
I noticed something really interesting last week which revealed to me a tricky way in which we sabotage our Money Capacity without even realizing it. Here’s what happened… Last week, when I announced that we were opening up a BRAND NEW virtual Money Capacity retreat, I asked for all who were interested in signing up to write back with a, “hell yes!”. We had SO many ‘hell yes’ emails in our inbox, that there were more hell yesses than there were spots available in the retreat. This is when the tricky thing happened... When we sent the link with information...
TW: you won’t believe what goes on
Last week I told you we’re going to talk about Money Capacity for the next few weeks. I announced three NEW virtual retreats dedicated to expanding your Money Capacity. Within just a few hours dozens of you had written in with a “hell yes!” to enrolling. I also prepared you for the fact that in our convo about money for the next few weeks, we won’t be discussing the same stuff every money guru talks about. This conversation will be DIFFERENT. It will go deep, instead of barely scratching the surface. And I warned you that you might get triggered...
the money convo no one’s having
In the last few weeks, we’ve been diving deep into expanding your capacity for more visibility and it has been an absolute BLAST to see how engaging this topic was for so many of you. But now that all three virtual Visibility Capacity retreats are officially sold out and closed for enrollment (!!!), I want to switch our conversation to another area where we are constantly hitting a ceiling… MONEY CAPACITY. Now HOLD UP--here’s what we’re NOT going to do… We are NOT going to have the same old conversation about money that you see every ‘manifestation’ and...
