It’s so easy to get caught up in thinking and believing that in order for you to receive/have/experience something you desire, you need to somehow figure out HOW to make it happen.But that very act is what’s blocking you from ever MANIFESTING it and having it in your life. The whole CONCEPT of planning for something, and following some kind of system just. doesn’t. work. Not in the way it was meant to be, anyway!The truth is – The truth that many are unwilling to believe because it seems too GOOD to be true (yet it is true!) – Is that there IS no ‘how’.There is only soul.The way to discovering WHAT it is you must do? Is to tune into your soul, ask for guidance, and act accordingly. The way to manifesting your greatest desires is not to ask HOW, but to ask WHAT. ‘What must I do now, in this moment?”“What is the aligned next action to take?”“What would feel good?”“What must I believe in order to receive ____?”Asking HOW is just whining and it get’s ya nowhere. 😉 The HOW will come forth and get DONE without you even trying because you are following soul guidance and doing what feels good in each moment (which is FLOW and flow is what allows you to manifest quickly and easily). You do not need to pre-plan the how. In each moment, you must ask yourself – “What now? What’s next?” And then you act, based on how you feel. You see, you get a PHYSICAL response when an answer comes to you, and that physical response is an indicator to whether or not you should listen to the answer and take...

I used to believe that in order for me to make money I had to do a bunch of boring shit that I hated, and in order for me to make A LOT of money, I was confident that I’d have to sacrifice in a big way. I thought I had the answer to success: First you do the work, then you make the money. The harder you work, the more money you will receive. From a young age, I knew that I wanted to be what I would now call “beyond wealthy” (so wealthy that you can do and have anything, any time, with zero restrictions). I knew that I WOULD be beyond wealthy. I just didn’t know HOW. Until I discovered the “secret” (which wasn’t really as a secret, as EVERYONE and their mother was preaching about it) - work harder. Work hard, make money.Work harder, make more money. Work harder still, make even MORE money.And on and on. I decided I would work hard, and then harder, and then harder still.And the money came, yes it did, but do you want to know what happened next? It came in small little piles here and there. Nowhere near what I was expecting to receive for the amount of time I was spending “doing the work”. I was spending upwards of 20+ hours per day on doing the work. (Seriously. I rarely slept.) I was writing, posting in Facebook groups, selling, creating new opt-ins, creating landing pages, updating my website, contacting people to have me on their podcast/blog/as a guest expert in their FB group, setting up Facebook ads, shooting videos, promoting my offers, posting on Instagram.. I...

If there’s one thing I never quite understood years ago, when beginning my businesses, was how to surrender. I let the doubts and the fears take over and lead me down whatever path it chose (which was often not one that worked out well for me).I did all the things the “experts” told me to do to be successful.I did webinars. I chased down potential clients constantly.I went to networking events. I invested in mentors. I did free challenges. I hosted livestreams.I charged super low prices. … I did all the things. And sure, some of them worked in the short-term, but never for very long, if at all. I always felt myself back at that point again - you know the one of feeling just so overwhelmed and frustrated with it all?There were many times I wanted to quit. To go and get a “regular” job that was more stable (LOL to that belief!).I had so many days that were filled to the brim with a bunch of shit I didn’t want to do, but did because I thought I was supposed to. Every night I went to bed exhausted, and often not much further ahead than I was the day before. Eventually I called in sick on the STUFF.I said “fuck this shit, I’m not doing it”, and I didn’t do a damn thing on my to-do list that didn’t feel fun and exciting. There were 2 things left: “write something” and “sell ______” (whatever program I was selling at the time). And then I did a bunch of other stuff that I FELT like doing. Stuff that most people would see as a waste of time.I watched TV...

I think one of the saddest things is when you don’t allow yourself to have, be, do and experience the things you want in life. I think the conditioning we’re brought up with around wanting MORE being a bad thing, is devastating. And I think the fact that we accept less than what we really desire is one of the greatest of our failures. It’s possible to have what you want, and then some.It’s possible to do what you want, or better.It’s all possible, and it’s possible now. The problem is that you haven’t given yourself permission.Permission to dream a bigger dream and go after it.Permission to ask for what you want, and expect it.Permission to do what you feel called to do, with no explanation of why you’re doing it.Permission to be you.Permission to receive. All this holding back, playing small, acting as though you’re HAPPY where you’re at and with what you have, when you really just are NOT. When are you gonna see that this is not a good look on you?All this SAYING and none of the EXPECTING and therefor, none of the RECEIVING. You can’t receive something you want if you’re not expecting to get it. And you can’t receive something you’re expecting if you don’t first ALLOW yourself to receive it in the first place. You can’t receive the things you want without first allowing yourself to receive in general, and then allowing yourself to receive the very specific thing that you want. I recognized yesterday that I wasn’t allowing myself to receive what I want from my book launch (to be on the Washington Post best-seller list, and an Amazon best-seller).I was...

You and I, we do things differently. We’re not like the regular entrepreneurs who love to have their ducks all in a row, everything organized and plans in place…We are the rebellious ones!We are the rule-breakers!We do things on our terms, always!And I know you know this, but I must say it anyway: You were born for more. Where you are right now - while you’re GRATEFUL for it - is not where you want to be. It’s a good place, a great place, a place you’re oroud to be at and HAPPY to be at, but… Something is missing, something feels just a teensy bit off, and what that is? Is your soul responding. Your SOUL is not happy. Your soul is just confirming to your new normal, but it is ready for you to jump toward that NEW new normal, ya know what I’m saying?Truth be told – You’ve been playing small.Things have been just a bit easy for you lately. Comfortable for you. And dare I say it - BORING for you! Boring because you’re just not completely SATISFIED. Isn’t it time you took off the mask and quit doing a zombie walk through life? Isn’t it time you let go of the fears that are keeping you STUCK olaying at ths level so you can move forward?Isn’t it time you simply chose differently?CHOSE to go biggerCHOSE to receive moreCHOSE to become your next level You are one choice away from a completely different life. You’re killing yourself staying where you are, and you know it. It’s been good while it lasted, but it’s not where you’re meant to stay. Never has been, never will be! You will continue to...
