How to Claim Your Power

Nothing in life is perfect. In fact, we are all imperfectly perfect. It takes a mindset switch to get out of your own way and understand what your true power and potential is and to share that light bulb moment with others so that they can rise too.

We created Powerful Steps in 2019 after farewelling my last client (who happened to be Drew Barrymore) because the timing felt right and after 20 years of creating and building other people's brands it was time to create my own.?My husband Craig Watson walked away from corporate life a year ago and together our intention is to build a global community of women fueled by human connection so that they can shine a light in the business they represent.

Our goal is to give others access to our connections across the globe to create and build their own powerful personal brand through a series of programs, events and business retreats so that they can lead with heart not ego.

I believe in asking for help when you hit a roadblock in life. It wasn’t always the way I lived life, but it is now. I ask because I know someone somewhere can help demystify the energy block we are facing and show us the runway possibilities we can move forward on. I also realize I cannot fix another person’s journey if they are not willing to fix it themselves.

In life we have a choice: do we want to be with toxic people and fulfill societal expectations just because they are our family, friends or work family or do we choose to live with freedom in our hearts because we know there is a better way forward?

Here are five powerful steps to consider that will allow you to create the space to understand who you truly are and what you want from life to claim your ultimate power.

1. If you’re feeling stuck, create a positive mantra to counter the painful thoughts. The more you rinse and repeat the power of where you want to go, your energy will shift away from your negative situation.
2. Invest in doing your “own work.” This means understanding what patterns you need to break to get to the next level in life. You will find when you invest in working on you and understand your trigger points you will feel a sense of freedom to walk away from what no longer serves you by creating space for new and exciting opportunities to find you.
3. Be gentle with yourself. Don’t expect an overnight miracle to happen because it won’t find you until you’re ready.
4. If you’re in a situation that is causing you pain, accept that the other person may not apologize. That’s OK. Remember that’s their story, not yours. You cannot “fix” someone, but you can fix yourself. Forgive the experience and walk away to embrace other opportunities. You don’t need to sizzle in a shit pit for one more moment of life.
5. Engage in self-care. A happy heart is a magnet for miracles. If you want to attract miracles make the time to receive them. Take time out in nature, go for a run, book a massage, and switch your phone off. The secret whispers of life will find you and you will be grateful you took the time to stop and listen to thrive.

To claim your power means creating the time to understand who you are and what you want to do in this lifetime. From there all it takes is a series of powerful steps and you will never look back, only forward as you live life on your own terms attracting the right people and opportunities into your life and career.
