In this week's episode of Aligned & Ambitious Radio, we are going to do an impromptu training and talk about our 2020 goals and intentions because we are already into the New Year. 

“It's easy to feel that motivated with fresh energy for the first couple of weeks in the new year, but that dwindles away for ninety-eight percent of the country. I want to talk to you today, and I'm gonna talk to you about this throughout the entire year, to make sure that you're accountable, because it's so easy to set goals and then not see them come to pass." 

I love goal setting, and I’m never going to tell you not to do it. All throughout this episode, I am going to show you some effective ways on how to set your goals. Setting goals is the fun and easy part. When you set your goals, you also decide what you want, what your life looks like, and how much money you want to make. The less easy part is filling in the steps to get to where you realize those goals that you set.

Truthfully, the reason why people fall off the wagon is that they set this goal and get super excited about it but, they don’t actually know how to achieve it, and it just feels so far out of reach. Setting business aside for a minute, you will do well with a little life audit every once in a while. This is where you reflect on what really worked for you in the past, figure out what the wins were, and what areas you need to improve on so you know what are the things that you want to do differently today and in the future. 

Since we’re on the topic of reflection and looking back into the past to figure what we need to keep doing and what to release from our schedule and life, I want to emphasize the power that lies in journaling or as others would say, putting pen to paper. Once you do this, things begin to flow more than you would actually believe.  It allows you to start to see your mind more clearly as opposed to just typing things up.

Stay tuned until the end of the episode to learn why journaling is so important, as well as the things that you will be doing this year on your way to fulfilling your dreams such as making decisions, living in your own terms, and following your own rules. 

We have so much power and control over how we experience our life than we give ourselves credit for.

In this week's episode of Aligned & Ambitious Radio, I am going to talk with you guys about what the last 12 months in my business have looked like, and explain the progressive levels of growth that it has undergone.

“(At) the beginning of the year, it seemed that this moment right now was super, super far away. I wanted to really just give you like a month by month, play by play on what happened, how I got here, how everything kind of fell together.”

Throughout the episode, I will talk about my entire journey and detail the things that transpired from when I first started in August 2018 up until recently, in 2019 which is my first full year in my business. To say that it was a good year would be an understatement, as it was more than that on many levels.

Episode #24: Breaking 100K in Year One of Your Business

It was in 2019 that my brand did over one hundred thousand dollars in sales, finally surpassed the six-figure mark, and my company officially became an LLC, which is really exciting. 

However, I will be the first to say that entrepreneurship is not a linear journey by any means. Often, we think that it is only a series of steps that subsequently elevate and stack on top of each other. When in reality, the road ahead is filled with these jagged lines all throughout, without a fast track lane going to the top.

What you can do is have a firm mindset to keep taking the next step forward. You will reach Point B from Point A eventually, all you need to know is the next step, and then figure out the next one from there. You don’t even need to know what is going to happen 6 months from now, you just need to be present in the current season and moment of your life.

In this week's episode of Aligned & Ambitious Radio, let me take you along with me as we look back at a career milestone I just achieved recently -- my first 18k month. 

“I really didn't put much of anything in December and I kept telling myself, I'm pretty much just going to take the month of December off. Obviously, aside from the clients I have and showing up for you guys and posting on social media, I’m not going to launch anything, I'm not going to get into any projects and not going to do a lot of collaborations or anything like that. I just really want December to be a quiet month.”

Obviously, I’ve been super excited as this is something I did not expect owing to the fact that I have been really detached from pretty much everything in my business in December. As far as my mindset goes, I really expected it to be a slow, quiet month. The opposite of that is what happened, and to me, it is a full-blown date with destiny.

Episode #24: Breaking 100K in Year One of Your Business

The inspiration for this episode actually came from you guys. Since I've gotten a lot of feedback saying that you love it when I share the numbers, so I am now strongly considering to do a sort of financial review on a quarterly basis. Together, we will look into what my expenses were, what my profit was, and talk about how you deal with those things as you grow into your business. 

Actually, I haven’t been one to talk about numbers. Especially when I was just starting, it seriously intimidated me because then, it was something that I did not totally understand. Now, I am excited to talk about it with you and let you in on all of the things because I think it really makes a difference as it is a very important conversation to have. 

So, stay tuned until the end of the episode as I take you on a journey in revisiting one of the biggest surprises I have received in the past year.

In this week's episode of Aligned & Ambitious Radio, I am sharing with you how I integrated into the life of a CEO and how that integration process has literally skyrocketed my business.

“I believe that I experienced these leaps of quantum growth because I always prioritize my energy and I always prioritize embodiment over strategy and being over doing and really stepping into that next level version of myself before anything else.”

Throughout the episode I will discuss my journey over the past year.  For example, there were some really high moments and some really low moments, and interestingly enough, the month when I was going through a lot emotionally and took time to step away, was also one of my biggest months.

Episode #45: How to Build a 6-Figure Personal Brand

One thing that I’ve learned over the course of the year is to constantly reevaluate my business. People LOVED my stuff before I pivoted to business coaching, but I didn’t have many paying clients, so I had to ask myself who am I serving?  Am I attracting clients that don’t want to invest in themselves?

What I realized was that most of my paying clients either were entrepreneurs or wanted to become entrepreneurs, so I decided to shift my business and focus on helping female entrepreneurs.  This was one of the scariest but also most rewarding decisions I made in my business. It literally tripled my income.

This didn’t come without a lot of inner work though.  I’m constantly going back to integrating with my goals and overcoming limiting beliefs.  The lesson that I want to stress throughout this whole process is there will always be things going on in your life that are hard and uncomfortable.  That may be an emotional situation or a financial situation, but don’t let those things keep you from being brave and chasing your dreams. Become the CEO you are destined to be.

“ … I went to an event with him last November and I took away so many different things than I took away this time. So it was just a different experience, because I was in a different stage of my life. I'm in a different stage of my business. I'm in a different stage of my marriage. And you receive information, you know, depending on which stage you are at in these different places.”

In this weeks episode of Aligned & Ambitious Radio, I am going to be talking about my 3 biggest takeaways from my experience at Date with Destiny with Tony Robbins.  After this experience this year, I have decided that I will be committing to myself to attend this event once a year, because there will always be new takeaways depending on the stage of life I am in.

The first topic I will introduce is establishing that you have the power to DECIDE what actions you take and what this life means and where you’re going in the lifetime.  The second topic I want to introduce is reaching your goals isn’t what makes you successful, it is who you become while reaching these goals. And finally, I want to talk about the energy you bring in with becoming who you are meant to be, and the energy your relationships provide, and how to appreciate all aspects of your life and just be in gratitude for all the amazing things to come.

“Building a personal brand is about transferring your emotions and your energy. So, it is not just fonts and colors. Your brand comes through in so many other places.”

On today’s episode of Aligned and Ambitious Radio, we will be drilling down personal branding, and how you can use your story to transfer you and your business’s energy and emotions to potential clients.

Branding is so much more than the colors and fonts you use, in fact, no one really is going to care about that.  What people care about is how you make them FEEL.

“Hey guys, what's up? I am super excited to come on and talk to you guys this afternoon. About setting a goal, but not putting all your eggs in one basket when it comes to hitting a certain amount of members or a certain amount of income.”

Today on Aligned and Ambitious Radio, we’re going to talk about the power and importance of detachment. 

Often, we tend to get so fixated on a goal so we can make the most out of a certain situation or in other cases, when you get so overwhelmed with excitement everytime special offers come around thinking it is the best offer that will come our way. 

A perfect example of this is the year-end goals that you’ve set and the deals you give out towards the end of the year to make the most of what you have left in 2019. 

I should know. I actually got trapped in that myself and my coach had to talk me down a little bit. So, that’s why I thought that this is what I need to come on here and talk to you about which revolves around why you really have to detach from the end-goal you set or it will only cause you to self-sabotage your business.

“I'm super excited to talk to you guys today because obviously I just got home from an event this weekend with my mentor and it was awesome. And I've had so many of you guys messaging me like, oh my God, it looks amazing, and it was so amazing and I learned so much.”

This week on Aligned and Ambitious Radio, I am going to share with you my biggest takeaways from the event I attended over the weekend and I am so excited to let you in on the things that I learned. 

I went to the conference thinking that my biggest takeaways will be about sales, marketing, making strategies, and those more technical business activities, but it was not. These things are definitely important to having a successful business and career, however there are bigger underlying factors that ultimately contribute to achieving the goals that we have set for ourselves. 

Achieving those goals has everything to do with your mindset which resonated so deeply with me, so stay tuned until the end of the episode as I share them with you and many other things that will help uplevel your mindset, your business, and your career.

“I told myself this morning, was it safe to sleep in like it's safe to rest. It's safe to once in a while just chill. Like you're going to get up. You're still going to get things done. Your business is still going to be fine. You're gonna be fine. It is safe to sleep in."

Today on Aligned and Ambitious Radio, we are going to discuss reassigning meaning to things that are important for self care, like sleeping in and letting your body rest, that we may identify with as having a negative connotation, like being lazy.

Another example of this that I touch on in the podcast, is my story around how growing my instagram audience is hard.  This week I changed my mindset and told myself it’s easy and my instagram growth has been amazing. But the point is, it all comes down to the energy and your mindset and beliefs around those blocks that are creating resistance for you.

If you can reassign and change the meaning you are assigning something, huge amazing shifts can happen.

“I have been brainstorming a bunch of mini trainings because I've been starting to do those a little bit more, and you guys love them. I've been on my Instagram story doing many trainings. I've been in the Facebook group twice a week, doing all the trainings everywhere, and I've gotten really good feedback, and I know that this is a question that everybody is asking."

Today on Aligned and Ambitious Radio, we will talk about money objections and how best to handle them whenever we encounter one. 

Let’s face it, money objections will always be present in every business. The only time that they will ever be truly gone is when everyone has all the money in the world. No matter how good you are in sales, or how amazing your offer is or how powerful the transformation is perceived to be, there will always be a group of people that you will receive objections from. It may be out of fear, out of distrust, and a plethora of other issues that they are dealing with already. 

You just have to learn to recognize that these people who are just unwilling to invest or just don’t have the money to invest at all are not your ideal clients.
