Speaker 1

Last week I did something that I hadn't done before , and I talk a lot in all of my programs . I intertwine mindset into them because I think it's really , really important to grow your business Like you . Really . Your mind is what will give up right before your body at the gym , right ?

The same thing happens in your business , and so I always intertwine mindset into everything that I teach . Already I talk about it a lot in my content . However , i have never done a solid hour of mindset conversation before , and so it was a real eye-opener . That number one , first of all , i faced my fear and I did it .

And then number two , that's not gonna stay up there . Number two , that it was received very well and a lot of people had a lot of breakthroughs and that's what they needed to care .

And I think if I would have hid and would have gotten scared and would not have delivered the message that I was feeling in my heart , that needed to be delivered , can we just talk about and imagine the people that would have missed out right on that message ? I had to deliver .

And it is the same thing with a product or a service or an offer when we are afraid to get visible and we are afraid to put ourselves out there , we are truly doing our audience the biggest disservice , because you never know who is watching , you never know who is listening , you never know who needs to hear that thing that you're talking about right now .

Right , you never know . And so when we choose to hide , when we choose to be afraid , when we choose to not show up that day and give our message that is on our heart and we're convicted about , we are truly , truly doing them a disservice . It is not fair to our audience , but it's also not fair to us .

We are allowing fear to win , we are allowing fear to dictate our actions or inaction . We are allowing these things to happen because we're scared . Now , what is what do they say ? fear is ? Fear is something ?

the false evidence oh yeah , it's false evidence appearing real , right , and it's like , okay , if I believe in fear , right , and I let fear like rule what I do , then I also because I can't really see that right And I don't know what's going to happen I also , in the same token , get to believe in faith And I get to have faith in myself , and faith and

belief and certainty that I know what I'm talking about and that this message gets to be delivered to my audience . So many times we are hiding , so many times we are afraid . So many times it's all about us when we're , when we're afraid . And this was a big realization to me . My fears were about me .

They were kind of selfish , to be honest with you , my hives , my friends . What would they say ? Me saying unto much imperfection . Right , that's on me . My audience doesn't care about that , and if they do , they're not my audience . Your audience doesn't care about that , and if they do , they're not your audience .

So , once again , why are we allowing fear to dictate the things that need to be seen and heard by our audience ? Why ? Why are we allowing fear to hold us back ? Why are we allowing fear to stop us from attempting greatness ? Right , we can't get there if we just live in our comfort zone .

We can't stay in our comfort zone and literally be like happy and satisfied . I mean , maybe you can tell yourself that , but you're always meant for more . I think it's I can't remember her name it cosmetics , jamie , okay , i think her name . But she talks about this , about the knowing .

Like you know , you have something deep inside of you and it's just knowing and you know that you , you are meant for more . You know that that you're capable of more .

And there's a quote there's all kinds of quotes , but there's a quote that says , if we actually were like , if we actually did what we were capable of , we would have sound ourselves Like we are capable of so much more . We're just not willing to get out of the comfort zone to do that . We're not willing to get uncomfortable to do that .

We're not willing to push ourselves a little bit harder . We're so afraid of so many things failure , success , what people will say , messing up , being imperfect , somebody seeing us and judging us by that like rejection . So many things we are afraid of and we allow it to stop us . The people who get where they want to go .

They're so afraid Don't get me wrong They're so afraid . However , they move anyhow . They move in the fear . They don't move away from the fear . They move in the fear because they're scared and they're doing it anyhow . They're truly courageous people . None of this is easy .

When you go out and you're like I'm going to start a business , especially an online business right , any business , but really an online business you're putting yourself out into the world .

Even a brick and mortar these days , putting themselves out into the world because if they don't get with a program in social media , they're not going to be successful most likely , right . So why are we letting fear dictate all of that ? I used to ask this question a lot and I said don't ruin my track record , because nobody's ever told me no .

However , if you knew that video could change one person's life , would you get on video ? They could change one person's . Maybe you never get validation , they never tell you , they never buy anything off of you , but you knew it would change your life , would you still get on video ? And the answer has always been yes .

So if we approach visibility , if we approach showing up , if we approach facing the fear and doing the thing we're scared of just like me , teaching an hour of mindset , i'm thinking how on earth am I going to fill an hour ? How on earth am I going to talk about mindset for an hour ?

Like I do five to seven minute videos , i do five to ten minute podcast episodes , how am I going to fill a whole entire , a whole entire masterclass on mindset ? But I did it . I taught two things , two things that have served and supported me more than anything else , identity shifts and personal power .

And I knew that between the two of them they would take away something right . They would take away at least one thing from those two trainings . And I just needed the audience that watched . I just needed them to identify with one of them . They didn't .

They didn't take both of them , just one , one at a time , one for now , one for later , one for now that serves them enough that they don't need the other one later . It's both of them work .

If we work through the year , when you have the tools especially when you're running a business , but any goal that you're going after , anything that you want to be successful at , when you have the tools like mindset to support you , it is a game changer . And when I did a 90 day run , i knew I needed mindset support .

So I hired a mindset coach because I knew I needed somebody . I needed somebody that was there to help me out of the places that I knew I was going to dig myself into because I was prepping right . It was preventative . So when I decided to do next level U , i said you know what I am doing ? mindset first .

It is not like me , it is not the sexy thing , but it is the most helpful thing , it is the most preventative thing , it is the thing that can serve and support us through marketing and money , which are the last two things that we're learning . So if I can get mindset , they're mind in the right place , which we'll build on .

I can't talk about marketing or money without talking about mindset . So I'm just going to build on what we already learned . But all I knew when I created this offer it was originally called a secret offer was all I knew was I want people to experience a transformation , Like . The words that kept coming to me were evolution , transformation , changing lives .

Those were the three things that I knew I wanted to focus on in this program And , honestly , this should be more in a $77 program only because I know what it's going to do for the people that watch video one . If they implement just video one , i already know how it's going to serve and support them . I already know the game changing that is coming .

I already know this . It's just R Like you can watch all the videos in the world . If you don't implement them , it doesn't matter , right ? You can watch all the trainings , you can invest 50 hundreds of thousands dollars , but if you don't ever implement it doesn't matter , it does you no good .

You can't just watch and be like , oh , that was cool , that was nice , that got me fired up , but then walk away and forget everything you just got taught and never put it into practice . This is why so many people get in a bind with over investing and never implement it . But let's go back . I faced my fear . I was still scared .

I was still scared it wouldn't resonate . I was still fearful that I shouldn't be talking a whole hour about mindset . But the belief that I had in the transformation , that I knew I had myself right .

I knew that that was life changing for me and I knew without a shadow of a doubt it could be life changing for somebody else if they received it , the way that I was delivering it and the way that I received it , and so that if I could help one person with that class right , that one hour , one person , that's all I needed . One person .

But more people watched it and they felt the feels as well . So that was a game changer . That was huge , and that is why I will never be put myself in a box and say I cannot teach mindset , because that is not true , because I sure can and I did and I crushed it and I served and supported a lot of people in the process .
