If you created your own personal styling business, chances are you did it because you want to work for yourself, help create impact in people's lives, AND love the freedom and flexibility from own your own business.

BUT…. working for yourself can be a slippery slope and you may end up feeling like it’s more of a job you hate than the business you love.

On this week’s From Hobby to Full Time podcast for personal stylists, I’m giving you 4 tricks you can use TODAY to create a sustainable business that won’t let you burn out.

Question: would you give up Netflix or Instagram scrolling to create the business of your dreams?

In this week’s podcast, I talk about a line from Marie Forleo’s book that says: “Nothing changes if nothing changes. Be bold. Break your patterns. Step away from societal norms that suffocate your life.”

I deleted Instagram from my phone. I don’t own a TV and rarely watch screens (okay, yes, I do binge watch Lily Singh on YouTube, thank me later). Getting rid of these societal norms helps me cultivate the mindset I need to succeed.

How far will you go?

Oh there ain't no rest for the wicked

My sister submitted the question: How do I make money grow on trees?

And I actually laughed out loud - a little because it’s just funny, but also because hey - wouldn’t it be nice?

We know money doesn’t grow on trees (literally and realistically, it just doesn’t) but the phrase is imbedded into our psyches. Take the Cage the Elephant quote - I saw them at Red Rocks in Colorado and while I didn’t know any other lyric, I knew and belted this one.

It’s an ingrained belief in so many of us - as it is with a lot of our money stories.

We say and think it without thinking. And yet, if you follow any sort of manifestation, law of attract readings, books or podcasts, there’s something to being able to attract money and it starts with base beliefs (and of course action, consistency, etc.).

From my own experience, I can best sum it up this idea like this: I known unshakably that the Universe (spirit, God), has my back and things always work out for me. I am eternally and alway grateful for my present moment. I’m clear on my desires and I have no attachment to my timeline, the specifics or how I’ll get there.

This will NOT drop $1,000,000 into my lap, but it sets the framework for cultivating strong beliefs and an abundance mindset. It can be tricky and it sounds NUTS, especially if you come from a background where money is limited, you have to work super hard to get it, and you’re always only scraping by.

I used to have extreme panic attacks around money. I would cry at unexpected bills because I feared I’d be throw into poverty, not be able to pay things, and never get what I wanted. In a coaching program with Jim Fortin, he asked the question: Have you ever lacked or has the situation you feared ever come into play? It stopped me in my tracks. Because I have spent MONTHS crying and worrying about money. And no, none of what I’ve feared has ever come into play. I know that I am fortunate and extremely blessed, but I’ve always been able to pay bills, my lights have never been cut off, and I can buy organic at the grocery store. But what struck me here was how much wasted energy I put on worrying about  money - when those worries never came to fruition.

I made the decision then that I would work to change my mindset around money. That coaching program basin 2017. It’s now 2020 so this decision has taken me about 3 years to really, truly feel, live and believe.
