Are You Stuck In A Victim Mentality In Your Business? (+ practical steps to get out quick smart)

Have you ever been stuck in a victim mentality in your business? My guess is you have been even if you didn’t realise it…

We all do it.

One day we’re sailing along happy-as-Larry, growing our businesses; the next, we are blaming someone or something for things not going our way.


We can fall into being a ‘victim’ without even realising we’re doing it!


And while we all do this from time to time, the key to staying out of ‘victim mentality’ is to be aware we’re headed into the loop, see how quickly we can catch ourselves, and take action.

Top Working Cafes In LA

Working for myself provides some fantastic benefits, one of those being able to work in different locations around the world.

I have had the pleasure of working from cafe's in Paris, Abu Dhabi, Miami, LA, Mexico, Singapore and New Zealand - and let's not forget Bondi and Burleigh Heads, Australia.

At each location, I make sure I try some new venues with new menus and keep notes on who stands out so I can share my favourite places with you.

Are You Truly Open To FREEDOM? (I wasn’t until this happened this week…)

As I write this to you from high up above the world I am feeling a massive sense of freedom (yup, I’m currently experiencing one of my bucket list experiences – flying from NYC to LA on Virgin America First Class - (a whole other post to write on this experience!).

In fact, this entire trip has been all about FREEDOM at a whole new level of awareness and unfolding for me.

How To Get Into Your Creative Flow (Lessons From NYC)

I see so many new health coaches get stuck on being creative – coming up with ways to market their purposeful packages, getting creative with naming their packages and programs, coming up with website and sales page copy that sells or creating blog posts that knock their readers’ socks off.

I’ve witnessed an idea that perhaps some people are ‘born’ more creative than others. I happen to think it is not that way at all.

The Blunt Truth Behind Working From ‘Feminine Flow’

I went to the Internet Marketing Party here in Austin last night and when the guest speaker shared his $4 million dollar launch secrets, his parting quote was ‘sorry folks, this does NOT happen by sitting on your laptop on a beach’

The crowd laughed a knowing laugh.

He had such a good point.

Anyone who is running a really successful business is still ‘working’ to make it happen.

And as female entrepreneurs, I think we are looking for that magical ‘balance’ between freedom and success.

While I see so many female entrepreneurs wanting to live a freedom-based lifestyle, I do think the conversation in female only circles tends to quite skewed.

How To Stay Focused On Your Business During Chaotic Times

I know a lot of us are facing chaotic, uncertain times at the moment so I wanted to share how I have dealt with chaotic times in the past to keep focused on moving the needle forward in my business…

The last few days have been a challenging few. Right now I should’ve been sitting by the pool at my hotel in Austin.

Instead, I am sitting on my sofa at home, cramming in some work before my husband wakes up.

2 days ago, just as I was starting to pack for my month-long trip, someone rang to let me know John, my husband, was in an ambulance on morphine, and on the way to the hospital.

I won’t go into all of the details, but he’s now home – with a broken collarbone – and we’re navigating the next steps of surgery, healing and whether he can look after himself while (if) I’m away.

And you see, this is just the way it is to be an entrepreneur.

How PR Changed My Business And Upped My Expert Status

When I first started out as a new health coach, I noticed the same people seemed to get all the attention in the media. Their names consistently came up in places where I was hanging out online.

On the one hand, I was happy for them, because I firmly believe in appreciating the success of others and seeing that what is possible for someone else is therefore possible for me.

And it’s great that people are doing meaningful work and getting attention for it. Everyone deserves to have the highest success when they are authentically sharing their gifts with the world and uplifting others.

But..... on the other hand, there was one thing that kept nagging at me…

3 Ways To Get Your Spark Back (When Nothing's Going Right!)

“I feel like I’m putting myself out there. I’m doing talks on Health & Wellbeing at the gym, and I’m posting on Facebook, but it just doesn’t seem to be going to that next level. I want to be getting paying clients.”

“I feel frustrated because I’ve been putting in a lot of effort it seems and I’m not getting results.”

“Where am I going wrong? I know my stuff. I feel I should be way more ahead than I am.”

Sound familiar? Not only do I hear this often from new Health Coaches in my UPswing Mastermind, but I went through this exact scenario myself when I was starting out.

Let me offer some relief by saying this…

It is absolutely normal to be feeling frustrated when you’re not getting the results you hoped for.

Your inner child IS going to start getting stroppy and grumpy if you’re giving, giving, giving and not getting.
