294 - The way you talk about your business—especially to yourself—can shape your results more than you think. 

In this episode, Heather and I expose two phrases that seem harmless but are actually stalling growth, crushing confidence, and leading to inaction. We’ll show you what to say instead, so you can take your power back and start seeing real progress.

What to Listen For:

• How to recognize language that disempowers your business mindset
• Why follow-up isn’t “pushy”—it’s professional
• How internal dialogue affects your ability to grow
• Why that unexpected success might be more repeatable than you think
• What really happens when clients don’t respond (hint: it’s not personal)
• Why waiting for clients to prove their interest is holding you back
• How to shift your thoughts to feel confident following up
• What it means to own your results—and your progress
• Why these mindset shifts create higher conversions and more joy

Small shifts in language can lead to big changes in your business. When you stop giving your power away with these sneaky phrases, you’ll show up more confidently, follow up like a pro, and finally start seeing the growth you’ve been craving. 🎧 Listen now and reclaim your momentum.
