“The energy of resistance to investing in your future self [health-wise] is the same energy [that] I feel with practitioners having reluctance to talk about money, acknowledge money, [and] hold responsibility around money.” — Meghan Walker
“We can have all the tools in the world that we want with respect to accentuating our health but if we’re carrying this massive financial burden … this is an unrelenting stress … [that] will [not] enable us to flourish with respect to our health.” — Meghan Walker
“Get to it now and you can look back on it a year from now and say, “Yup, this is what I did and this is what I put in place.” And you’ll thank yourself for it.” — Braden Urquhart
What can happen when you get clear on your desires, make decisions faster, and reprogram your mindset from one of scarcity to one of abundance? Joining Meghan and Braden to take a deep dive into these topics is the masterful practitioner, Adele Tevlin!
Trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Adele works with countless practitioners and entrepreneurs, helping them reprogram their mindsets around money, their potential, and their impact. She is also the CEO and founder of the C.E.O Blueprint, a transformational leadership and development company; and the host of Beyond Breakthroughs, a podcast that discusses all things related to business growth, spirituality, manifestation, and universal laws.
In order to make your financial dreams come true, there are two main pieces at play that need to come together: the mechanical side and the mindset. In this episode, Adele takes practitioners through the key pieces of the mindset, sharing how to take the first steps in creating business in your life and business; make decisions from a place of desire rather than a place of fear; and how to make quick, effective decisions that will help you grow forward.

High-ticket offers are one of the smartest things that you, as a practitioner, can implement in your ecosystem. But where do you get started? What does a high-ticket offer even look like? How do you attract clients that are willing to pay for these high-value offers?

Tweetables:
“Selling one high-ticket compared to selling one low-ticket [is] the same amount of work. … Getting that first sale can sometimes be the most difficult — but which one would you rather? And which one’s going to actually help the person on the other end?” — Braden Urquhart
“It has been my experience in life and in practice … that when someone is willing to pay to be all in, they also pay attention. They follow the rule, they go home, and they do it. They are actually not your high-maintenance patients.” — Meghan Walker
“I think when you want to build that business [that scales], if you already have that opportunity or cushion underneath you [of a high-ticket offer], it’s going to be a lot less stressful than trying to do it from the ground-up.” — Braden Urquhart
“You need a solid offer for your 1:1 practice that you know people are interested in and are going to invest in consistently.” — Braden Urquhart
“Stop assuming that people are not going to want to pay for that higher touchpoint — because they do and they will! … It’s just that you haven’t put that offer out yet.” — Braden Urquhart
