The title says it all...

Today I was crying on my bathroom floor... hysterically... and I followed it up by eating a white chocolate raspberry bundt cake.

I was tempted to eat the bundt cake on my bathroom floor... but I was crying too hard to eat anything.

So what was going on?!

Well, today, was just one of those days where I could no longer pretend that I was fine.

Everything that had been bothering me for the past week or so just caught up...

It was just one of those moments where EVERYTHING felt wrong.

My body image was awful.

My business felt awful.

How far...

This topic can be applied to ANYWHERE in your life, but in this blog-post-rant I'm going to focus on entrepreneurs.

Discounting yourself is disrespecting yourself. End of story.

When you set your price for your services (or your career, if you're not an entrepreneur), you're deciding what amount of money you feel good receiving for your work.

You're deciding what you need to show up for your work, your clients and your business...

And if you go back on that... and accept less, you're LITERALLY telling yourself that you're not worth what it is you desire.

Now, I'm not talking...

Most people I've ever worked with over the past 13+ years have SOME idea of what their ideal situation would like... and MAYBE have taken the time to get clear on what that could look like... but are SO petrified to ask, that they just keep going about their life HOPING that one day things will just get better.

A long-term goal of mine in my business has been to be featured in other people's group programs, podcasts and speaking events.

When I first started my business... 3+ years ago, this was a dream that I put on the shelf as "something I'd focus on later..."

But as I grew...

Most people go about changing their life completely backwards.

They wait until they SEE the results in their physical reality to believe they're on the right path.

Ex: if they want to get healthier in some way, they wait until the scale says they've lost weight to know they're following the right plan.

Or if they want a business, they wait until they make more money to confirm that they're doing the right things... or that their marketing is on point.

This often leads to a giant circle of "doing things and hoping it works".

Which is annoying, exhausting and usually doesn't...

This topic is definitely a cliche... but it's a popular topic among the personal development world for a reason.

And as I sat down today to write at my computer, with my steel cut oats topped with strawberries (that are amaze BTW), cacao nibs, gogi berries, shredded coconut and almond butter, I felt stuck with what to write...

So I asked myself what is true for me right now?

And that's how amazing I feel after shifting my mornings.

Years ago, my mornings used to look somewhat like this:

4 am wakeup

Sometimes get some fasted cardio in

Grab my overnight oats, throw on some clothing...

You can't deny the power of getting shit done...

And as soft, compassionate, feminine & relaxed as I am... I also embrace the power of getting shit done.

In order to get anywhere in life, you have to get shit done. You have to get clear on what you desire, on what needs to happen and you have to get the shit done.

Sure, you can pay other people to help or do the things for you.

But only YOU can show up for your health. Only YOU can show up for your relationships. Only YOU can show up for your business, your dreams, your desires...

No one can do it for you.

I'm surrounded by...

Here's where most people fuck up their goals.

They start taking action. They feel really good about the way they're showing up. And they feel like they're definitely moving forward.

But fast forward X amount of time... they start doubting it.

And so they start energetically giving up. They stop taking action in some way. And they start believing that what they're doing isn't enough.

This leads them to start looking for the evidence of what ISN'T going right to confirm what they THINK is true...

And this is where people either give up fully, start backing down on their goals or continue...

Living an inspired life is more than just waking up every single day.

It's more than checking off the to-do list.

It's more than going to school, getting a job that pays the bills & having benefits.

And it's more than getting married to somebody you love, having kids with them and getting a house... maybe going on vacation occasionally.

Sure, those things can be part of it- if you desire, but living a full inspired fuck-yes-life is different for everybody... but have you ever actually questioned what that looks like for you???

Or did you just end up following some path...

Don't sit like that...

Cover up your chest...

Close your legs...

Classy women don't act like that...

These were all things I was told as a child that caused me to be so fucking scared to own my sexuality and femininity.

WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. FUCK.

For years, I was scared to be "too sexy" or "attract the wrong attention".

And this caused me to feel caged in... and just not like myself.

I put myself in a box of "weight lifter, nerd & classical musician"- none of which I associated with being "sexy".

Which inherently is flawed...

But the truth is- we ALL have the ability...

I wrote this as an email to my email list this morning, but it was TOO FUCKING GOOD, not to document on the blog:

After helping thousands of humans become happier, healthier & wealthier over the past 13 years, I've come to know a few truths about people who succeed vs people who stay stuck in their same patterns.

In this email, I share some of the biggest commonalities amongst people who struggle and stay stuck... because I want you to be able to identify your behaviors and ultimately shift them.

The truth is- if you want a different reality, in any way, you can...
