You're Afraid of Success. It's a Thing and Here's What to Do
You’re afraid of success.
I know! What?? It sounds insane! The whole reason you get up at 4 AM and drink your bulletproof coffee or kale smoothie is to strive towards success, right?
(By the way, if you think a 4 AM alarm is crucial to success, we need to talk. Text me at 561-473-3318 and yes, it’s really me on the other end of the line!)
Wouldn’t you argue the only reason you do anything is to be successful? So why would you strive to be successful... if you’re afraid of success?
Why is Success Scary?
Because of our ass-backwards understanding of what success means for our lives and happiness, 99% of people are scared of the very things they want.
Why? What would make us so afraid?
What IS the Fear of Success?
The fear of success is tied to a deeply held but seldom discussed belief: that it’s not safe to be happy.
Let me explain: you fear success because success means having it all — in your career, love life,...
The Most Overlooked Quality Blocking Abundance for Women Leaders
How good are you at receiving?
If you’re like 99% of the women when they start working with me, the truth is…. Not very good.
The problem is, most high-achieving women think that by not needing help or asking for support they’re being strong, independent and successful. The opposite couldn’t be more true:
A Misunderstood Essential Leadership Quality
To be an extraordinary leader you must be an extraordinary receiver. You must be able to receive support, inspiration, ideas, perspectives, money, compliments, love, and more.
When you’re blocking your ability to receive, it’s as if you’re putting your hands out in front of you, telling the Universe no no no I’m fine it’s fine I don’t need anything leave me alone!
Which creates a HUGE block to abundance and success for a majority of women. It was a block for me, too!
Two Subtle Ways I (Almost) Block(ed)...
Why Women Underinvest in their Most Valuable Asset
Here’s the truth: too few women don't invest money in themselves.
I’m not talking about spending on a Louis Vuitton handbag. I’m talking about investing money in things that will make you better, happier, and more connected with yourself.
We will invest in everything else — our kids, the stock market, real estate, a friend’s business, art — before we invest money in ourselves.
It’s insane. And it stops now.
THIS is the Safest, Surest Investment You’ll Make
There’s a new paradigm to invest your money: in YOU.
Investing is expending money with the expectation of receiving more in return. You’re either growing or you’re dying, and the only actual asset you have is yourself. So what could possibly guarantee you greater ROI than investing in YOU?
“That woman… no longer exists.”
What happens when you invest in yourself is you step into the abundant being you are. Investing in...
Got Conviction? The #1 Quality Fierce Women Leaders Need Above All Else
I am taken aback by the mindset of lack and scarcity I see from powerful women entrepreneurs, leaders, and visionaries right now. I’m seeing a lot of women fall into a simple but profound mindset trap that blocks the #1 quality leaders need most: conviction. Conviction is what makes the difference between the leaders who make their impact and move their missions forward, and those who do not. And it is our responsibility and privilege to protect and nurture our conviction.
The Mindset Trap Stealing Your Conviction
This is the mindset trap I see countless women leaders fall into: you believe something is going to happen outside you that will interfere with your current success, happiness, and contentment. It’s an external variable dependency — you depend on external variables for your internal wellbeing — and it poisons your success, growth, impact and happiness.
This mindset trap blocks you from feeling happy and from expressing the truth of how...
