What if you CHOSE to dream bigger + to stop playing small?
What if you DECIDED that you were meant to break the status quo + have more than just “good”… more than just “fine”…
You started your business because you believed that being your own boss was the right path for you.
If you wanted to live by someone else’s rules, & stay on a safer path - you could have stayed in your 9-5.
But you didn’t - you CHOSE the life of an entrepreneur.
??That is how I know you don’t actually want to play small ??
But you’ve fallen into stagnation and are roaming a plateau right now…
Right now you’re working with clients but:
? you’re not charging what you REALLY want to
? your cash-flow is lower than you desire
? your clients don’t make you feel good about work (or they do and you love them but you wish there was a bit less to do!)
? you feel like you’re trading time for money but there’s no routine, your days feel jumbled, it feels lethargic - so much work but you never feel like you get anything done!
I know what that feels like because this was me 2 years ago and it was some of my clients only a few weeks ago…
I’m telling you that you can:
?? raise your prices, standards and boundaries and have dreamy clients pay you without objection
?? have higher cash-flow in your business so you can feel more free with your money

?? work with clients who value your skills and give you fulfilling work to help them make an impact
?? feel good about your day to day routine because you’re organized, productive, efficient and include plenty of time for play, exercise & mental rest in your life
?? have a marketing strategy to create content that feels good, that is exactly what you want to say and that doesn’t make you feel sleazy or inauthentic.
IF you stop playing small and stop ignoring these 5 truths:
1. Where you are right now is not unique.
?Others have passed where you’ve been before and the challenge you face is both predictable and solvable.
?2. Your letting the opinions of others dictate YOUR life
?Fight for what you want, be kind to others but blaze ahead without letting the words of others anchor you down.
?3. You won’t always know what you’re doing and that’s a normal part of the experience.
?4. You are in control of your income and finances.
?Regardless of whether you’re in a 9-5 or an entrepreneur, changing your circumstances around income and finances is always within your control
?5. Your thoughts are not your truth.
?What you think, believe and feel is valid, but it’s not always the truth. Look at the facts, look at your life and find the truth.
?Let me know if this lands with you!
