🎧Episode Highlights [02:18] The Glass Ceiling

• Diana leads the Ascend Mastermind program, where she guides elevated entrepreneurs to expand in various ways.
• They talk about money and abundance and what being a creative entrepreneur means.
• Entrepreneurs often create their glass ceilings from a deeply ingrained corporate life culture and beliefs.
• It takes a lot to unlearn ingrained societal systems and realize your capabilities as a creative entrepreneur.

[05:11] Breaking the Glass Ceiling

• As entrepreneurs, we can make things out of thin air. We then get to charge what we want for what we create. 

Diana: ‘Instead of deciding, ‘Oh, this is how I'm making money. This is how much money I'm making a month, and this is what my budget is,’ we get to reframe that and say, ‘Wow, I can actually make as much as I desire because magic comes out of my fingertips—because I can create anything out of thin air.’

• Remember who you are and what you can create. The glass ceiling you’ve imposed on yourself or that’s been imposed by others is not real. 
• You can create whatever you desire. Get out of the corporate mindset that says you have to work within boundaries.
• Creative entrepreneurs don’t have boundaries and limits — we’re not stuck in a cage.

[09:09] Realize Your Limitless Potential

• Take note of any limiting beliefs in your language. Adopt the belief that you have limitless possibilities.
• Think of five different ways you could make $10k next week as an exercise. Be creative and open-minded.
• Opening your mind and realizing what's possible is part of breaking free from the cage of societal norms.
