You know what? Here’s one of the worst ways to continue holding onto your LACK and SCARCITY mindset: CONTINUE SEEKING OUT THE CHEAPEST OPTION Just because you COULD do/get something cheaper, doesn’t mean you should. Just because you COULD do something yourself, doesn’t mean you should. Just because you COULD save/hoard the money, doesn’t mean you should. Just because you COULD, doesn’t mean you SHOULD. Especially when it comes to YOU and YOUR business. I mean for shit’s sake, where the fuck are your priorities? Aren’t YOU important? Isn’t your TIME important? Isn’t your CONVENIENCE important? (And for the record, the more important you feel, the more EASY - a.k.a CONVENIENT things feel, the more in flow you are, and thus, the more MONEY you make.) So saving money and cutting corners is a really fucking STUPID thing to do because you’re telling the universe that convenience, that high-vibe feeling, and TIME are not important to you. Even though you’re SAYING you want those things. Which is confusing as hell – And so – You just. Continue. To struggle. With getting what you want! Because the universe is not sure what the hell you actually DO want!! Stop signing up for every damn freebie you see, thinking it’s going to make you millions. It will NOT. Stop buying the cheapest programs you can get from mentors hoping it will get you the same results as 1:1 mentoring will. They will NOT. Stop telling yourself you have to wait for what it is that you want. Stop allowing yourself to struggle. And for the love of freshly grilled tofu (don’t knock it til’...

I don’t care what anyone tells you. You are good enough. You are good enough to ask for (and receive) everything you desire. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have “credentials”. It doesn’t matter if you didn’t finish high school. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never made a single cent doing what you do. It doesn’t matter if you think your content sucks. It doesn’t matter if someone else is further ahead then you are. You are enough. You are perfectly PERFECT in every single way. This is my love letter to you: I love you because you are honest. You tell it like it is and that makes me happy I love you because everything you do, I can tell you’re doing it because you truly want to help and inspire me. I love you because you make me feel welcome. I love you because I see you busting your ass every day (I appreciate your hard work). I love you because you are friendly and gracious. I love you because you ASK for the sale. You aren’t afraid to sell me what you know I need. I love you because you’re you, you’re not afraid to be you, and you stand by who you are. I want you to know that it truly doesn’t matter what anyone thinks of you. It doesn’t matter if someone calls you crazy, or unstable, or over-the-top, or reckless, or WHATEVER. They are the one with an issue. 🙂 Your work matters. Your message matters. YOU matter. There are SO many people in the world that so desperately need you in their...

I want you to know something that you may not understand about yourself: Right now – You’re sabbotaging. You’re telling yourself that you can’t have what you want, or not yet, maybe later. You’re allowing others to dictate the actions you make and don’t make. And the worst part? You’re denying the fact that you are WORTHY. You are worthy of EVERYTHING you desire, and not only are you worthy of it, but it was meant for you. If you can see it in your head, you can see it in front of you. You really can be, do and have EVERYTHING you want. That’s not just some cute little saying I made up one day. It’s the truth. I know because I’ve done it, and I continue to do it as I up-level my life. Do you ever think about the things you want and then dismiss some of them because they’re too much? Do you say you want something, but then never fully go after it, because it seems impossible to make your reality? Don’t you WISH you could stop doing that shit and just start going after what you want without feeling scared? I don’t think I have to tell you this, but I will anyway: You can have it ALL. It doesn’t matter how crazy it may seem, or how “unlikely” others tell you it is. It doesn’t matter if no one has ever done it before. It doesn’t matter if it appears to be something that will take too much time or cost too much money, thus making it unrealistic. That doesn’t matter. Let...

If you ever want to make an introvert feel like they want to die, throw her into a room full of people trying to talk to her. Any other introvert out there will agree with me on that! Which brings me to the story of my first ever in-person networking event… I’d been working with my coach for just a few weeks. I hired her because I was brand new to the coaching industry, and although I knew A LOT about business and making money online, I knew nothing about the coaching industry or how to make money teaching people everything I knew about business. Although I didn’t have the money, I hired her anyway (thanks, Visa, for the loan!) because I know that only stupid people say NO to something they know they need. Sure, I could have figured it out on my own. I didn’t NEED a coach. Except, I wanted to get known and make money VERY FAST. Which meant – I needed someone to help me do that. So I hired my coach. And one of the first things she told me to do? Go to a networking event so people get to know who you are. *cue internal screaming* I tried to get out of it. I gave as many excuses as I could. I said I’d do ANYTHING ELSE, just please not this, don’t make me do this!! But – She said I needed to do it. She said it would help. She said it wouldn’t be “that bad”. Easy for her to say; she wasn’t the one that was being told to...

I truly believe that we are all good people. We all have a desire to do good in the world, we all want to make a difference in some way, and we all want to help others. Ask anyone if one of their goals is to do good, make a difference, and/or help others, and pretty much every single person will say YES. Because that’s what good people want to do. I remember reading a book a few years ago, and in it was the message that everyone is selfish, and I agree - to an extent. We ALL are looking out for ourselves first, we all tend to make decisions based on how they will affect US, and we’re all looking for ways to make OUR lives better. I think it’s important to be selfish, frankly. I think that if you’re NOT selfish, you end up becoming resentful to those around you. And so, selfishness is not really something I see as a negative. That being said, I think it’s also important to acknowledge that just because we’re all pretty damn selfish, that doesn’t mean we don’t care about others. It doesn’t at all mean that we’ll push and shove and screw over other people so that we can get what we want. It just means that we’re sticking up for ourselves Doing what we know would make US happy Making sure that WE are taken care of and looked after Because when we feel good, we want to share that feeling and make others feel good. I was journaling about money this morning, as I do every...
