I’m at the airport right now, in the Air Canada first class lounge, and I just noticed that I’m one of the VERY few women here. My sister is travelling with me and actually walked around and counted 13 women and out of around 50 people. Every 1 out of 5 is female. What the fuck is up with lack of women in first class? WHY are there not more women travelling in luxury? I also couldn’t help but notice that when we walk around we get some strange looks from the men here. As if we’re in the man cave and aren’t welcome. Guess what - we’re not going anywhere. GET USED TO WOMEN TAKING OVER. And although I’m sure most of the men here are enjoying this experience on someone else’s dime (thanks to their J-O-B), it’s still hard to miss the fact that there are not enough women enjoying this experience, too. This just reinforces my mission of making sure women all over the world learn how to profit from their own self and their own life, so they can enjoy the same thing their male counterparts already get to enjoy moreso. It’s total bullshit. I’m done with men getting more than we do. I’m certainly no feminist, but I also believe in equality and the fact that women don’t get to experience the same luxuries as men (not as often, anyway) really just pisses me off. Feeling like you don’t deserve it? Feeling like you need to worry about others first? Feeling like you’d rather save money? You’ve got a mindset block, sugar, and need...

Feel like you’re just spinning in circles right now? Get out of your head. You’re blocking success by believing things have to be complicated. They don’t. In fact, success actually comes much faster when you’re working from flow, are in tune with your wishes and desires and actually just start doing what you want. Seriously. Internet marketers have RUINED us and brainwashed you into thinking being an entrepreneur is fun and easy all the time. Rewarding, yes. Exciting, yes. Worth it, yes. But easy? Not a damn chance. This shit isn’t easy. My business is actually a whole heap of CRAZY. It’s chaotic, it’s messy, it’s all over the place. But wouldn’t you know it, I make an average of $50,000 EVERY SINGLE FUCKING MONTH, and growing. This isn’t because things are easy and fun, it’s because things are HARD and fun and that’s the whole fucking point! The hard stuff is what will get you results. And you know I want the results, so I put on a smile and get the hard stuff done every day off the week, no complaints. And if we’re being completely honest, deep down I really love the hard stuff. I love facing something big, scary and unknown, looking it in the eye and saying YOU DON’T SCARE ME, I GOT THIS, I OWN YOU! It’s like getting results from exercise: If you stop when things start to hurt or feel somewhat uncomfortable, nothing will improve. Your body won’t change, your athletic ability won’t change, your mindset won’t chance. You have to push through the pain to get results! This is why...

Lessons are everywhere. They’re a part of life. And they’ve definitely been a big part of my life and my entrepreneurial journey. Less than 2 years ago (and honestly, probably before that, too), I did something that I’m not proud of (but I don’t regret, as it taught me a valuable lesson) – I WAS LYING TO YOU ON A DAILY BASIS. Every day I would show up and put on my mask. I would be who I thought you wanted me to be. I would say the words I thought you wanted me to say. I truly just wanted you to like me. I wanted to stand out in a group of thousands. Tens of thousands. Hundreds of thousands, really. I wasn’t honest with you. It was all a facade. I created the “perfect Cassie” in my head and I delivered her to you every day, cringing every time because it just didn’t feel RIGHT. It didn’t feel like ME – And that’s because it wasn’t. It wasn’t ME, the real me, that I was sharing with the world. It took someone on the outside, someone who knew me offline, to notice and basically shake the shit out of me, saying “why are you one person online and a different person offline?“. Good fucking question. And so I stopped being two people from that day forward. I’ve never once looked back. I’ve never once regret it. I gave up trying to be perfect (fuck perfect, anyway). I gave up trying to please everyone (as if that’s even possible). I gave up filtering myself and sounding like a motherfucking robot...

Enough is enough with the head games you’re playing with yourself. Saying you want one thing but then accepting another. Being adamant that THIS IS YOUR TIME, but then giving up when things feel hard. Listen, you and I both know that there’s only one thing you truly want in life. The question is, why the fuck haven’t you stepped up and taken it? Because yes, that really is what you need to do. The first step in receiving ANYTHING is to accept that it’s meant for you and consider it already DONE, then act accordingly. But what you’re really doing is just HOPING right now. You’re crossing your fingers that you’ll sign that new client, hit that new money goal, go on that vacation, hire that mentor, buy that home. You’re wishing for it. You’re not accepting it as YOURS, right now, even though it may not be physically in your possession just quite yet. You see, everything you’ve received in your life thus far has been received because you accepted it before it was actually given to you. You made up your mind that it was yours and then it appeared. This is great, except that most people do it backwards and end up with a bunch of things they don’t actually want because that’s what they expected. That’s what they told themselves would happen. If you’re constantly in the mindset of “I’m so broke”, you will always be broke. If you’re always saying to yourself “this is too hard, it will never work”, then guess what - it will never work. But on the other hand, if you start saying...

There have probably been many ups and downs in your life. You’ve probably had shit thrown at you, you’ve fallen on your face, and you’ve FAILED more than once. I’m even willing to bet that you’ve quit and given up on yourself all your life. You see, when things feel HARD, that’s when you give up. That’s when you quit. That’s when you say you can take no more. And the sad reality is that you’re right. You CAN’T take anymore. Because you’re not cut out for this kind of life. You’re not ever going to achieve what you want. At least, that’s what you’re telling yourself by quitting. Listen, if you want something bad enough, you will do whatever it takes to get it. You will fight for it with everything you’ve got. You’ll take the pain You’ll forfeit the sleep You’ll spend the money You’ll endure the stress You’ll do it all, happily, without complaint – IF it’s something you deem worth fighting for. Think about this – What do you really want? Seriously. Think about this. WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT FROM LIFE? How do you want to live? What do you want to do? Who do you want to be? WHAT. DO. YOU. WANT? Get crystal clear on what your dream life actually looks like and hold that vision in your mind while you ask yourself: is this kind of life worth fighting for? If the answer is no, repeat the process of uncovering your TRUE dream life until you get it right. If the answer is yes, then you know what you have to...
