As an independent, high achieving, eldest daughter… my money story was always: “If I want more, I have to DO more.”
So when I got into business for myself and I set these big cash goals… to hit them I needed to spend more hours/ take MORE responsibility/prove more/show up more… MORE
And because I’m a badass mambajamba who can handle a LOT (and ofc never needs any help hehehe if you can relate you’re my peoples) I kept handling it
I made my highest cash months getting so good at compensating for a business model that required too much of me and hopefully asking 🚨THIS QUESTION 🚨 will help you avoid the same:
🪄✨ How little of me is actually required to create an exceptional result?
This question changed EVERYTHING for me because some of the work I have been paid the most for has also been the easiest work for me to do.
I can hear someone explain the problem and see the hidden pattern almost immediately.
I can look at a piece of messaging and know exactly why it isn’t landing.
I can catch the belief underneath the behavior before someone even realizes that’s the conversation we’re having.
And for years, I would look at that kind of work and think: “But that was easy for me.”
NOW I know that:
Your mastery is SUPPOSED to make things easier.
You are supposed to get faster at seeing what matters.
You are supposed to need fewer steps.
Your best clients are supposed to need less hand-holding because the quality of your thinking has increased.
Your business becoming simpler is not evidence that you’re “getting away” with something.
It can be evidence that you’re finally getting paid for the part that took you YEARS to become this good at.
And this is where I think a lot of high-achieving women accidentally cap themselves. Because if you’re still reading, I’d bet my whole business that you don’t actually have a problem making more money…
You have an unconscious identity that was formed around how much you could do and how useful you are that is keeping you doing the most and earning the least (or burning out to get there).
My world is where we say… with love… f*ck that identity. and build a new one 💁🏼♀️✨👸🚀❤️🔥
