You know, the memory of who you 'are' is so much more powerful than the identity of the person you're trying to become simply because it has more evidence and has been 'true' for longer.
In trying to change your life and get a new result in your business, you have to let go of the memory of who you thought you were and allow yourself to consider a new identity and narrative...every single day.
Look around you right now...
The room you're in is telling you who you are.
The worries / dreams you woke up with are telling you who you are.
The clothes you're wearing today are telling you who you are.
Even the emails you receive are telling you who you are.
They all support a narrative. And you believe that narrative so much, you act it out and act within its framework every day.
Even if you have a vision board, or list out your goals or are going to the gym to hype yourself up, underneath all of this, two things remain true:
(1) You must fill the void your yearning created in order to get the result - we do this by looking for ways to feel good and taking creative action; and,
(2) You must remove the narrative that is sabotaging your result on loop, without needing the poor result to flip the script! Oh my!
In today's episode, I want to do something a little bit different. I want to explain to you what I know about the three levels of manifestation, one of them being 'grit work', I want to show you how to measure the strength of your intention by the actions you're taking, and I want you to get honest about your next move.
Look, for a long time I've found it hard to balance the narratives of manifestation and hard work. I don't like it when someone focuses exclusively on one end of the spectrum when they both have a place. The key, it turns out, isn't in how they're different, but in how they're the same.
If you wake up with positive expectation that good things are coming your way and use your own unique edge to actually create something magical in the world, you're well on your way. The only things left to do are to fill any void of yearning and remove the block that sabotages the result when it comes and you're there.
I want to formalise this process for you today and help you find more reasons to believe in your vision and take bolder, truer action towards it. Manifestation and work come hand in hand. They're friends, not enemies.
So, press play to:
Learn about the three levels of 'manifestation' the books forgot to tell us. See where your subconscious intentions are in conflict with your conscious intentions and bring things in balance. Break your vision down into 'levels' to really see what it will take to make it happen. Get a gritty, honest and somehow magical boost to keep going on your journey of transformation. I really hope you enjoy today's episode and it unlocks something for you that helps you go bigger in your efforts and energies today.

Look truth be told, a coach CANNOT hold you responsible to get important things done in your life and business.
If you really want to achieve an outcome that matters to you, there are four things I would do:
(1) List your project in order of importance.
(2) Create 'containers' that make you produce key outcomes because people are expecting them / paying you for them.
(3) Create deadlines you cannot wiggle out of.
(4) Use a coach to run through your work, get important feedback and pick their brains on how to make it better.
Press play for a quick spot of inspiration on how to be more productive, hold yourself accountable and move your life and business forward.

There comes a point in your journey that you can no longer push through the pain to change your life and grow your business. Instead, you must sit in the discomfort of your pain and heal the subconscious pattern you're repeating.
Changing at this subconscious level of patterning will lead to new thoughts, new behaviours and new results in your life and your business.
But, it's not easy work! At the first level, you need to spot the pattern. Then accept responsibility for changing the pattern. The stop the pattern when it loops again.
In today's shorter episode, I'm going to show you how getting into debt three times taught me how to heal using this approach, rather than hustle my way through my pain.

This is the truth of how I went from zero to £100,000 in online sales in my online coaching business.
Look, I know you’re trying and I know you think it should be working right now. You took the leap to build your online business, you’ve made sales here and there but it feels too hard and you’re wondering: Will this ever work; have I got what it takes?
IT WILL AND YOU DO but -
You’ve got to do what will actually work and I’m going to be really straight and tell you what those things are right now.
The truth is it’s harder than a lot of people will tell you online. For this to work, you've got to be so hungry for this to work, you've got to feel like it’s your life's mission to show up in this way and make this work, you've got to focus on learning the proper skills of positioning value, marketing, mindset and sales to turn on sales and set yourself free.
I know you want more clients and I know you can help more people. But I also know that the best coaches don't win - the best marketeers do, every time. So, if you want to build an online business and be an online coach or course provider, you've got to accept the fact you're about to become an expert in online marketing and selling. And I'm going to help you!
So here's the bottom line. In a job, you get paid for showing up, regardless if you do the work or not. In entrepreneurship you do not get paid for showing up. You get paid for two reasons: (1) You added meaningful value to someone who was willing to pay for that value; and (2) Enough people got the chance to consider that valuable offer in the first place. If you’re not making sales it HAS to come down to one of those two things and both are skills you develop with work, trial and error and well, more work.

For juicy context, here are some of those key ideas:
 
(1) Get into the world:
First and foremost (hilarious phrase!?) you’ve got to get out in the world and sell things. Content will not lead to sales, no matter how great it is. What leads to sales is webinars, masterclasses, live workshops, discovery calls, freebies with a clear call to action.
In the beginning, I understood this deeply. I made a lot of content to help build my brand and build trust, but I was ALLLWAAYYYSSS launching, selling stuff, trying stuff. I’d put on events in local coffee shops, I’d book hotel venues and put on talks every month, I’d go live on Facebook and announce new course launches. When I look back on my journey, I can see I was out there in the world. I was making new connections ALL THE TIME. I was meeting people. I was making pitches and offering things and I built my business one client at a time.
Now, I tend to do long copy PDFs, and online masterclasses and workshops rather than live stuff. Back then, I did a lot in person.
So ask yourself: How many times have I offered something low risk to bring people to the front of the room this year? If you can 10x that you will massively increase your sales.
 
(2) Tell people what you believe:
Don’t share boring generic sh!t and DON’T YOU DARE USE CHAT WHATEVER IT’S CALLED TO SHARE YOUR CONTENT. I don’t even think you can use it for ideas if I’m honest. No-one wants to hear from a robot and no-one wants a generic summary of waffle off the internet. They want to know what worked for you! They want your powerful insights. They want the map you made! They want a human's journey.
So honestly, get really deep with yourself and think about two things: (1) What is the one big outcome you can deliver right now for clients; and (2) What is the truth of what that will take. Go make that content. Go write those mailers. Go build offers in answer to that.
 
(3) More time with clients:
Listen - get on calls with clients, offer more group time, offer more live time, offer more 121 time. If you’re not making sales right now, being tight with your time is hilarious isn’t it?! Instead offer more!! Double the time they get with you.
If you

The best coaches / trainers in the world aren’t the ones who make all the sales. The best sales people are the ones who make all the sales.
What I mean is that they use very specific sales strategies to find customers, position the benefits and ask for the sale.
In my experience, this is the part a lot of purpose driven coaches and course providers avoid. Sometimes it’s not even conscious. They’ve literally never been taught how to sell. What I find these people doing instead is posting content that doesn’t really show the product, move the customer forward or link to the next logical step in the sales process.
So, if you want to make more sales in your online coaching / education business, press play to learn:
(1) The difference between ‘lead’ content and ‘brand’ content and why your current content isn’t generating sales + how to fix this instantly;
(2) The one thing you can do in your week to instantly drum up more business and make more sales online; and,
(3) How to tackle the mindset of selling and online sales in a really different way.
This episode is motivational, strategic and tactical. 
I think it’s a bit of a corker.
 Please do enjoy.

In this episode, I want to bring you behind the scenes of this book writing process and tell you three things that are changing the way I think about 'commercial success' and the very act of finishing your purpose-led work (your art) and letting it be seen.
I think all of us have something purpose-driven within us; a form of art we want to share with the world. In the beginning, we must allow room for the messy start so that we can get our first ideas onto paper, and then see that process through to a commercial polish in order to help that art be seen in the world.
I'm covering:
The process of writing a book and book proposal How to create deadlines you can't wriggle out of and why this is so important Different ways you can use 'frameworks' to breakdown the work and develop your ideas I'm also covering context for the book including: 
How I managed to change my subconscious programming on debt and abundance How I started the 'healing' work to change my life What it truly means to change I hope you enjoy!
