• Was thinking clearer after the call about “What are my ideal clients doing incorrectly” (my ideal clients are people that want support to help them realize an unfinished course, unmet goal, a wish unfulfilled, etc) So when I did a market research question I heard this as their problem:
    -They are getting discouraged
    -They are getting…Read More

    • Hi Whitney, these are very valid points for not finishing something. I think there is also a tendency to over-buy/ consume as there are usually plethora of offer on the market and on the internet and SM, we think this one will do the thing and fall into the marketers’ trap when – depending on what you do but that applies to a lot of stuff – we…Read More

      • You have a great point, Claire! Which makes me wonder… can you get clearer on the overcommitting? They are overcommitting to multiple courses/coaches/support.

    • Hi Whitney, I am wondering what mistakes people make that lead them to feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, trapped, overcommitted?

    • Hey Whitney! Can you put a picture in your profile please? A pic of your lovely face? Maria will be at the 3rd wed this month to answer tech/substack quesitons!

      • will add a pic and get caught up here later – still not sure how best to navigate this platform so will get familiar with it soon (partial luddite here!!)

  • This idea comes from somatic movement – 1st you have to yield (relax) to gather your resources and push/stretch to an action or goal. I thought I would get people’s feedback. And I’m thinking about using my recent accident as part of some articles. Might as well try and make lemonade. 🙂

    • Love this. There is an expression in recovery “don’t just sit there, do nothing” which I love. Or as my parter’s uncle who is a doctor is prone to say…”sometimes you have to go slow to go fast” (usually related to healing)

      • Thanks Whitney, I love this quote, ”sometimes you have to go slow to go fast”. I’m not sure if it might be a little repetitive to 1or2, but worse case, it can be a substitute. In the meantime, it is a great statement that I think everyone can elate to. Thank you so much for sharing.

    • Love this Joel, also I think :
      Relaxing allows room for healing
      Often time healing from injury and disease is about connecting to the body

    • What Whitney said – I was also told “Don’t just do something, sit there,” as in take the time to feel into what is happening and allow yourself some space/time before acting, rather than what we are usually pushed to do is “don’t just sit there, do something!”.

    • mistake 2 is good!

    • One of the mistakes that I have made is not recognizing my body’s cues or signals that I need to rest or relax. It took me many years to recognize those little cues so that I could sit and do nothing to give my body the time it needed to heal.

  • Hello – I’m looking forward to joining the Club this week and getting started. Currently I am developing a program to help women tease out a dream, desire or goal that is either a whisper, or an old roar untapped and bring it to life through accountability, good old cheerleading and baby steps that lead to leaps. I am also doing training in…Read More

    • what came clearer on who you help, Whitney, in this first week of working on the messaging. It is fun to see what we write one week and how it can be clearer or deeper a week later. ❤️

  • Hi All,

    In February I want to focus on my new 1:1 program – it is built on various modalities I use and I feel will be more robust than what people buy most of the time : a Pack of 3 sessions.
    Could you have a look at the landing page (I went back to the content lesson on Landing pages) and tell me :
    Is it small enough when I talk about…Read More

  • Okay, I’ve created a proof of concept for my monthly “newsletter”. I’m open to any and all feedback – particularly on how I’m framing the intent in the introductory section. This issue is a little fat, to give a sense of the kind of articles I’m imagining. Let me know what you think! Any kinds of content you’d like to…Read More

    • @megandougherty I love the simplicity and efficiency of this post. It gets straight to the point and provides immediate value.

      I wonder if you could simply this line, “There are a few different ways you can position a podcast on your website and in your sales process to increase your know like and trust factor, shorten sales cycles, and let…Read More

    • How can we make it more about them – less about you in the last line?
      “we’re going to be looking a”

  • Content Type: Thought Reversal Post- is this clear and effective? Thank you. 🙏🏼

    Title: The LIMITATIONS of mindset work.

    As a leader, I’m sure you’ve done lots of mindset work over the years. And, it’s likely taken you a distance in your success.

    🔥 However, it is limited.

    Here’s the thing.

    • what do you mean by “And, it’s likely taken you a distance in your success.”?

      • @amyhager “And, it’s likely taken you a distance in your success.”? = mindset work has helped them to achieve some success… but mindset work requires focus, energy and time. Does this make sense? Is there a better way to say this?

    • I am getting lost in this too: It takes a toll on you… and frankly, you have other things requiring your time, attention, and desires to fulfill that you’d like to use your energy for, right?

      Mindset work involves dealing with your thoughts and beliefs. These exist as part of your nervous system, personality and Ego.

      As such, whenever cir…Read More

      • @amyhager Mindset work comes with a cost- time, energy and focus- essentially, when we do mindset work we’re wrestling wiith our thoughts, beliefs and stories.

        Maybe i should just take this section out? Would it make sense without it?

        Bottom line: circumstances are always changing which requires constant mindset work… which takes a toll on…Read More

    • small tweak: 🔥 Navigating changing your mindset while in a leadership role means there’s a lot of activation, which is where stress arises from. You’re constantly working with your mindset- trying to reset your thoughts and untangle from your beliefs.

    • This is SOOOO Clear: 💎 What if you could access a part of you that doesn’t change in response to circumstances? A part that remains unchanged even when your whole world feels turned upside down, giving you access to your deepest wisdom.

      💎 What if you didn’t need to wrestle with your thoughts and beliefs?

      You CAN reconnect with this part of you…Read More
