Why did I choose to start an online business? Well, part of the reason, like for many people I assume, was for more freedom… With my life experience and challenges I knew my business had to be coaching, because it is helping other people that gives me purpose I put the work in, started to put knowledge and strategy together, but very quickly, I realized that “knowing what to do” was only a small part of it It was during the early part of the process where I understood, that what it was really all about, was mindset… All of the work that I had done to improve my mindset up until this point was really beneficial for me But I realized that it was more than just freedom and helping others that I was doing this for… I was starting an online business, because it was what my mindset was leading me to I now knew that I was made for more, and I would not be able to live with myself in the future if I did not at least try What I would say to anyone who is at the early stage of their online business Is whilst your mindset can be a challenge, it can also show you the way… You know deep down that you are made for more, and that you have the potential of doing so many great things… So all I can say is, don’t sit on the sidelines, go for it, take the action and put the work into becoming the version of you that can make it all happen 🙌 #bestversionofyourself #mindsetreset #freedomlifestyle #freedomofchoice #onlinework #remoteworking

In early 1992, I noticed that clients were coming into the workshops with all kinds of negativity. I knew we couldn’t have the outside world intruding on the workshops and that clients’ worldly issues couldn’t be allowed to prevent the workshops from getting off to a great start. So, I introduced The Positive Focus thinking tool. It always works to make every meeting predictably positive, and it’s now become a precondition of any meeting I’m in. I’m very protective of the environment of the company. I won’t let what’s happening to people outside of work have a negative or distracting impact. This is because I want to be a source of positivity, and we want the Coach environment to be a positive one that can be useful for dealing with tough things in your personal life. Today, every meeting begins and ends with a “Positive Focus.” All team members in the meeting share something specific they’re excited about, proud of, or looking forward to. And what happens is that everyone is immediately energized and focused on the purpose. Everyone contributes. Our meetings are more efficient, with positive momentum, so within a short time, everything important is discussed, decisions are made, roles are clarified, and a scheduled plan is activated. We also end with a Positive Focus, where everyone shares something useful and valuable they got from the meeting. Try using this Positive Focus tool in your meetings from now on, and notice how things change. What’s your Positive Focus for today? #Mindset #Entrepreneurs #Growth

It hurts my heart to see people stuck in their heads. Their heart is in the right place but they get lost in the knots of their mind. This is what lacking clarity in your why looks like. "Why are you here? Why do you do what you do?" Those are the two most important questions for us humans to answer and yet many lack clarity in these which affects how they lead in their life and at work. IS THIS YOU? - You feel you are not rooted in your vision for your life and work? - You feel lost or confused with your course in life and at work? - You struggle with making decisions on what next? - You are not sure of your life mission and why you are here on this beautiful earth? DO YOU DESIRE TO: - Find more confidence in how you show up in the world through your work and in your life - Feel more clarity in your vision and life path - Feel rooted navigating life through its ups and downs - Be more confident in decision making - Feel more energised and inspired and lead from this place Let's connect with your WHY, together. Be ready to get the biggest energy boost of your week! I def bring on the energy in this workshop. 😂 This is for all leaders, entrepreneurs, freelancers, creatives, and personal development enthusiasts who wants to get more centred and lead their life with more clarity and confidence!

My prices are rising...... 📣   However, this will not come into effect until 10 days time..... 🕰️     If you have been considering my coaching services for some time, to help you to #1 perform better, #2 become happier and #3 to become the BEST you can be, then reach out today to benefit from current pricing….    Increasing your prices it is not always easy. However, one of the most important lessons I have learnt Is to BACK yourself💥. There are 3 main reasons that I am doing this.    #1 Enhanced service – This week I announced a new partnership with Peter Barker, a business expert with over 25 years creating and building businesses 🚀. Peter will also be providing his expertise to help my future business clients. In addition, I have brought in Amy Nicholas into my team, who is an expert in helping successful individuals to alleviate stress, switch off and to operate in a state of flow ⭐️. #2 Client results – The results my clients have received have been life changing 🎉. As a result of this success, I have been recognised for my achievements, including winning a national award (the best business life coach of 2024) 🏆 #3 Bespoke service – My focus is always to fully commit to help my clients achieve the most amazing outcomes, and so this will allow me to provide even more bespoke support for my clients 👌   If you would like to find out whether we may be a good fit, then reach out today for an exploratory discussion, before this changes takes effect👇 Ps: Huge thank you to Peter Barker for sharing your wisdom at day 4 of my 5 day mindset challenge today. As Peter mentioned, when you get the "thinking" and "doing" right, the opportunities are endless 💡 #growthmindset #purposedriven #performance

It wasn’t always like this. Ask any business owner that looks successful from the outside, who still finds time to: Relax. Take time out. Indulge in a hobby. Whatever. “How do you manage to find the time to do XYZ?” … and they’ll usually respond with that top line. And for bloody good reason! Namely: they had to go through a lot of trial and error before they realised how to work smarter, not harder. I never thought I’d be in a position to just sit with a coffee on a Friday afternoon and not stress ☕️ (I’m actually at home with one, but it doesn’t look as glamorous, so this is from a few days ago when I came up with this post idea, but you get the gist 😂) Because everything depends on me, so I should be constantly working, right? Nonsense. Success doesn’t work like that. And if you’re running a business, but you feel like it’s running you, that’s a sign. A sign that something needs to change. It could be a broken system. It could be an unhelpful thought pattern. It’s probably both. But I know EXACTLY how you feel. Which is why next Wednesday I’m running my masterclass on how to beat business owner burnout. But if you’re a senior leader or director experiencing overwhelm, this is for you too. It’s totally free, and in the first few minutes I’ll be sharing a simple exercise to get to the bottom of WHY you can’t take time out. There’s still time to sign up - I’ll leave a link in the comments 👇 But I’d love to know - what do you really wish you had more time for?

You have great clarity on the main goals you've set for your business in the next year. You have a great understanding of them as a whole. But, you find yourself struggling in the day to day week to week activity as you're focused on the large annual targets. What you're missing are micro goals that keep you focused on your present actions rather than distance future end points. This mindset can prove overwhelming and exhausting creating burnout leading to missed opportunities. You're likely bringing the wrong thoughts and energy into your current work thus decreasing your overall effectiveness. For example, let's say you need 10 new sales to hit your goal this month. When you wake up and hit the ground thinking you need to go out and find 10 deals today, it can undermine the excitement and energy you'd normally carry with you throughout your day. Instead, focus on finding one deal at a time until you hit your goal. Waking up thinking you need to land one deal today or one deal the first half of the day feels much better than thinking you need to find 10 deals today. Micro goals help keep you stay on track with your daily actions which, when repeatedly consistently, lead you to success on the overall targets. Creating granular micro goals is something I work on weekly with my clients. We focus weekly on specific activities, have check in calls, evaluate and then recenter, as needed. Focusing on the present better leads to future success. Ready to recenter your focus onto your current actions to create better results? I can help! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I offer 1:1 Zoom coaching engagements to help my clients take the right actions consistently to achieve their desired results quicker.

If you notice you’re SO busy, busy, busy,  but aren’t actually making all the money you want to be, it’s a sure sign you’re sabotaging yourself🙈👀 Here’s what I mean, If you aren’t signing clients consistently, your brain is sabotaging you with “busy”💯 Busy is actually one sure fire way procrastination shows up And procrastination is the number form of self sabotage As an expert in how your brain works and how to remove self sabotage, let me tell you how it works Your  brain uses “busy” tasks to avoid taking the hard, sticky, but money making actions that will sign your next client It can look like, working on your website, creating an ebook, networking all the time, but not taking next steps to sign clients from that networking, creating a PDF or some kind of product that sounds so exciting, cleaning and organizing your office, and so many other things that just do NOT move the needle to your goal of signing your next client. It’s because the actual money making actions… 😔 feel hard 😔 feel scary 😔 feel overwhelming 😔 take effort and energy, what?  Seriously? YES! Putting effort or energy into something doesn’t have to equal HARD. But your brain connects the two, so it avoids it at all costs. Truth is, Once you get to the root of “busy” and remove it you will be completely amazed at how you don’t need to avoid the money makers any longer.  🔥You will show up like a flipping badass for yourself and get those paying clients booked in. Let’s make this your story NOW Let’s not keep putting off getting the support you need in this moment No need to keep putting up with this in your life or business Your best next step right now is to book in your complimentary coaching session with me for this week.  On this coaching session we will, 👉Dive into your current biz activities and see where the mindset and / or strategy gaps are 👉Identify the primary resistance to that is preventing clients from flowing in easefully 👉Map out an action plan for you to work both on mindset and implementation, so you can make the necessary shift to book that next paying client fast. Book in your free coaching call here https://lnkd.in/euauHcUw I cannot wait to help you book that next client!

Why is getting feedback from your clients important to you? I am adopting a different approach to feedback, and framing it as: - 1. Crucial for continuous improvement, which meets my high need for change. 2. To strengthen relationships and encouraging open, direct communication, building trust and supporting mutual growth and transformation. I emailed one of my client's who attended the Free Ignite Flow Masterclass to pop me her thoughts and feedback when she had a chance. (She was only one attendee on the Saturday Masterclass) 😊😉 "Firstly a million thanks for my private Masterclass, what a PRIVILEGE I really enjoyed meeting up and sharing, and I really appreciate your time! I felt energized, and positive and really refreshed after our session. I know that I must replace my passion so will keep on searching, reorganize my space and concentrate on some Meditation! I will also be mindful of my exercise routines and teach myself to enjoy my new ‘ lack of structure ‘ lifestyle. I will also look out for activities that are not draining. Thank you once again." I did mention could she add where to improve, but perhaps that's best as a formal feedback session or written survey. 🤔 Why is getting feedback from your clients important to you? How do you ask for feedback from your clients? How do you decide what to implement and what to leave? #freemasterclass #feedback #flow #flowstate #enjoywork #passion #potential #meaningfulwork #workfulfillment #vision #careernavigation #selfawareness #selfdevelopment #growth #choice #drainingtasks ##wantrepreneurs #solopreneurs #entrepreneurs #businessowners #findingmeaning #workfulfilment #careercrisis #careercrossroads
