You Have Ideas ā€“ but You Believe You Have 'No Idea Where to Start'

Entrepreneurs are rarely short on ideas.Ā 

And then we tell ourselves:Ā I have no idea where to start.Ā Ā šŸ˜¢

Let's ban the phrase, I have no idea where to start.Ā 

Itā€™s a familiar and comfortable narrative that has youĀ brainwashedĀ into believing you're stuck.

Iā€™m calling you out on this BS because your internal story is blocking your business growth.šŸ’°Ā 

You insist you're clueless and instead focus on external messaging like ad copy, SEO, and email automation.

Here's the thing.Ā 

šŸŽ‡Your internal messaging is more important than anything else.

Because marketing rarely works when your internal story keeps hammering that you have no idea what to do.

Our words create our worlds. šŸŒŽ

Ā And ourĀ communication is ā€œan inside jobā€Ā that no SEO guru can tweak.Ā 

When you start with Step 1 and commit to cleaning up your internal story, you'll have:Ā 

Ā šŸŽÆQualified leads and decision-makers joining your list and community.Ā 

Ā šŸŽÆPeople who love engaging and sharing your content, so you have more visibility...

My Client Was Full of It, and You Probably Are, Too

Humans are born with only 2 fears: the fear of falling and the fear of loud noises.

Science proves it.

Everything else youā€™re afraid of was learned, most likely in your childhood (0-7 years old)

And we carry these fearsā€”and the stories behind themā€”with usā€¦for years.

ā€¢ You talk about being afraid of heights.

ā€¢ You talk about being afraid of dogs, spiders, or snakes.

ā€¢ You talk about your fear of public speaking. Then, you give momentum to your (learned) story by talking about the presentation you messed upā€¦in 2012.

Our words create our worlds. šŸŒŽ

And they usually keep us from growing ourselves and our businesses.

So, what are you afraid of, aside from maybe falling and loud noises?

My client, Don, was reflecting with me about how transformative this fear lesson has been for him.

Donā€™s a super smart techie.

He was studying computer languages long before the rest of us found the Internet.

His programs have been used by the Pentagon and White House; so cool! āš”

But until a few ...

The #1 Issue that Keeps Slowing Your Business Growth

I want to get in front of people who can hire me; I want to grow my business!Ā 

Thatā€™s what Iā€™ve been hearing these past few weeks on social media and from my own client calls.Ā 

Look, social media gives each of us access to the masses.

So, itā€™s not hard to get in front of peopleā€”even the right people who are your dream clients.Ā 

Still, thereā€™s a challenge that most entrepreneurs and coaches donā€™t recognize.

šŸŽ¤Itā€™s this: What do youĀ SAYĀ when you get in front of your peeps? šŸŽ¤

If youā€™re like most of my clients, when we first start working together, they say the same thing.

šŸ‘€Youā€™re not aloneā€¦

  • Maria thought her problem was only having a few small clients (and struggling to make money). Then she realized she needed the confidence to talk about herself in a big, bold way.
  • Chris thought he wasnā€™t closing enough sales. Then he realized he didnā€™t feel worthy enough to speak up.Ā 
  • Heidi knew she was doing something wrong. She got crickets when trying to engage potential clients and repor
