    The easiest psychological hack to make people see you as the authority

    When most people think about authority, they think about better messaging, smarter funnels, and more strategic content. In this episode, Ramona flips that idea on its head. She shares a psychological principle that is simpler — and more powerful — than constantly tweaking your messaging: People believe what you tell them. Not through manipulation. Not through fake proof. But through repetition, embodiment, and conviction. If you don’t intentionally shape what people believe about you, they’ll form conclusions anyway — often based on your hesitation, inconsistency, or lack of clarity. This episode dives deep into how to use repetition, integrity, and bold positioning to create real authority — and turn your brand from “interesting” into essential.

    Why “Authentic Content” Is Killing Premium Brands (And What Actually Works in 2026)

    This whole conversation about “authentic content” is off. If you want to sell high ticket. Attract premium clients. Be invited on stages. Create a brand people are proud to be part of.. .. it’s not about how messy your bun or life is. 👉🏻 It’s about creating a world people want to step into. In this episode, Ramona dismantles the 2026 obsession with *authentic content* and explains why messy-bun relatability is not only overrated, but actively repelling premium and high-ticket buyers. Drawing from over $300k invested in mentorship and her perspective as a fast-deciding, high-level client, she breaks down why authenticity-as-a-strategy is always calculated, why relatability is not the same as trust, and why the brands that win in 2026 are not the most exposed — but the most intentional. This episode reframes authenticity back to its real definition: originality, authority, and depth — and shows how cult-status brands are built without sacrificing privacy, leadership, or desire. If you want clients who decide fast, pay well, and stay — this conversation will change how you create content forever. **>> More from AIMING HIGH ** Cult like Launch Code: [https://aiming-high.com/cult-like-launch-code](https://aiming-high.com/cult-like-launch-code) The Obsession Switch: [https://aiming-high.com/the-obsession-switch](https://aiming-high.com/the-obsession-switch) All info about the **Cult-like Launch Intensive** hit a DM on Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/ramona_oxenbauer/](https://www.instagram.com/ramona_oxenbauer/)

    The Real Reason You Can’t Relax After a Big Month

    You had a big month. The numbers looked great. The money came in. And still — your body already knew you’d have to recreate it. In this episode, Ramona breaks down why most high cash months don’t create safety — and why businesses built on hype, traditional launches, and adrenaline will always keep you on edge. Because big months driven by events, attention spikes, and pressure feel good… but they never feel stable. Inside this episode, you’ll learn: - Why hype-driven income keeps your nervous system on high alert - The hidden cost of relying on traditional launches, events, and cash injections - Why momentum is still exhausting — even when it “works” - How adrenaline-fueled businesses quietly lead to burnout - The difference between hype, momentum, and obsession - Why obsessed buyers don’t wait for you to sell - How cash cow offers create real income stability Ramona shares what actually allowed her to stack 32 multiple five-figure months in a row — without constant pressure, urgency, or manufactured momentum. Because money that comes from hype keeps you tense. Money that comes from obsession lets you breathe. 🎧 Listen now and learn how to build income that doesn’t require you to recreate yourself every single month.
