Owning your mastery and committing to the professional story you want to share with the world is the best way to boost your confidence AND save time and energy as an entrepreneur. πŸ’―

I get it –– the idea of mastering anything can feel intimidating. Imposter syndrome, perfectionism, and self-doubt can sneak in and have us asking, “who do YOU think you are calling yourself a master of your craft?”

But here’s the thing: when you give yourself the space to claim your superpowers, you tell the world you’re not messing around. You know WHO you are and WHAT you’re here to do.

Are you ready to own your mastery and move forward with greater clarity and efficiency? Drop a πŸ”₯ below!

Your voice and perspective are the most powerful tools you have for building a sustainable business. πŸ“£

I had to learn this lesson the hard way when I was starting my own business. Like so many of you, I was used to shrinking myself in practically every environment I was in.

As women, and particularly as women of color, we’ve been conditioned in our professional AND personal lives to sit politely until given permission to speak.

It’s time to take back our power and that starts with embracing and appreciating your voice and perspective. πŸ’―

If you don’t trust what comes from within yourself, you’re going to limit your impact and the ability of your business to grow and thrive. Period.

When was the last time you truly set aside time to rest and THINK? πŸ’­

Yet we wonder why we’re struggling to come up with new ideas or move the needle forward on certain projects. πŸ€”

It’s not rocket-science –– we literally have 24 hours in A DAY and the systems we’re a part of in our personal and professional lives are designed to take up as much of our time as possible. Your time and your freedom are not anyone else’s priority! πŸ’―

If you’re ready for a more EMPOWERED relationship with your calendar, start by scheduling time to rest, think, and dream. πŸ—“

You already know what it takes to perform in the corporate world. 🌟

You’ve worked hard your whole life getting the good grades and into the good school. You earned those good internships and landed that good job.

You may even be thinking about your next promotion and how you need to perform in order to make it happen. πŸ“ˆ

But here’s the thing: starting your business IS a promotion of your talents and it could be the key to achieving the success you dream of.

Don’t just settle for a title or paycheck someone else has decided you’re worth –– it’s time to give yourself the promotion you truly want. πŸ”₯

I’d love to know: what’s YOUR dream promotion? Share what you want to be the CEO of below! πŸ‘‡πŸΎ

It’s being the CEO of my time, joy, and freedom for me πŸ’―

Having the confidence to make the leap from corporate is about closing the gap between who you are meant to be and who you feel trapped into being. πŸ’―

This is the FIRST step to building a successful, sustainable business.

It’s not about your website or marketing campaigns or hiring the right folks… without the confidence of knowing who YOU are meant to be, you’ll find yourself trapped all over again.

But what if the “leap” from your corporate job to your dream business felt more like taking a STEP in the right direction? What if instead of blindly jumping away from the security and stability of being an employee, you knew exactly where you were going next? πŸ—Ί

This is the confidence COMPELLEDβ„’ can give you. Visit the link in bio to learn more and join the waitlist today!

Between the demands of your personal and professional life, chances are you’re tired of playing tug-of-war over your time. 😡

But before you make any major changes, you have to get clear on what it is you REALLY want.

Without mapping out your next steps or knowing what your end goals are, you’ll simply find yourself trapped by the responsibilities of a new role.

Take the next 10 minutes to visualize what you’d love your day-to-day schedule to look like. Open your notes app or grab a notepad and block out time hour by hour. πŸ“

Physically seeing where your time is going each day can help you determine where you’d love to see some changes!

One of the hot topics on everyone’s minds these days is the concept of building generational wealth. πŸ’°

This is the financial legacy you want to leave behind for generations to come. πŸ’—

When we talk about generational wealth, we often think of real estate or investment accounts, but without income that supports us in building these things we’re never going to get there.

All corporate jobs have one thing in common: a ceiling or cap on how much you can earn. 🚧

You have to get real with yourself and decide if you can make that amount of money work for you, your lifestyle, AND your dreams… or do you need to make some changes.

There is an opportunity cost to everything we do, especially when it comes to building your own business.

At the end of the day, choosing to prioritize yourself and your dreams is going to piss some people off. πŸ˜‰

Of course, having a support system of people you love is also essential which is where communication comes in.

If you’re thinking of making a big change, it’s important to get clear on your values and goals so you can articulate them to others. πŸ“‘

The more clarity and confidence you have around what you want to do, the easier it will be to get your loved ones on board. πŸ’—

So much of our success is measured by our outputs and what we accomplish in a given day. πŸ“ˆ

But I want to take a moment to talk about INPUT. These are the things in your life that re-energize and re-invigorate you.

In order to recognize what those things are, we have to embrace the necessity of stopping. πŸ›‘

Stopping literally creates space for us to explore what fuels us, what inspires us, and what our next steps toward those things might be.

Today, I encourage you to STOP. Right here. Right where you are. And embrace the space around you. ❀️️

When we’re constantly rushing from one thing to the next, it’s easy for us to avoid feeling the fullness of our human experiences… at least for a while.

But eventually, all that pent up sadness, anger, and even joy needs to go somewhere!

Are you giving yourself enough space to fully feel your emotions and experience the most human elements of yourself? ✨

Oftentimes, especially as creatives, we have a tendency to hide our vision from the world until we’re absolutely ready to share it. 🀐

While there’s certainly a time and place for nurturing an idea and giving a new project the space it needs to grow 🌱 the only way for it to thrive and build momentum is by putting it out there.

Today I want to challenge you to think of who you can start sharing your ideas with. πŸ’­

Look around at your village or your creative community and find three people you trust and let them know what you’re dreaming about doing. You never know what doors may open for you! ✨

Thanks so much to @beingbossclub for having me on. I loved our conversation and think you will too! Find the full episode wherever you get your podcasts.

I’d love to invite you to take the next 60 seconds and dream with me. πŸ’­

Start by taking a few deep, nourishing breaths to begin. Closing your eyes, bring to mind a beautiful memory…

It doesn’t matter what it is –– but a memory of a beautiful moment in your life. Allow yourself to go there.

Now, think of a time when you felt most alive in your work or in your business. Whether it was last week or a decade ago… go there.

Think of the parts of yourself that felt the most joyful, adventurous, playful, or pleased. Feel into it. πŸ’—

Now, open your eyes. Ask yourself why or where you’re not permitting yourself to experience that feeling in your life today.

Acknowledge it gently and without judgement. This is simply an incredibly important first clue about the work you need to do to get where you want to go. ✨
