2:33.4: And so I'm here to remind you that you are a very, very, very powerful being and that you get to decide, you get to have the choice about what it is that you want, where you wanna go. And so I want to tap into what might be holding you back. 3:27.4: One of the very first ways that I see people blocking themselves from having a great boutique is fear. Fear of success, fear of failure. Fear of what will other people think. Fear of I'm not good enough. Fear of what if I run out of money? 

5:08.6: It's okay to be nervous. It's okay to be in a space of feeling unsure about what could happen. It's okay. Feel that feeling. See it.

9:20.3: Anyone can set up a schedule, actually. But what I will tell you is that it takes you sticking to that schedule and it takes you deciding that you're gonna show up for that schedule.

10:34.4: I find a lot of people that start boutiques just aren't taking themselves seriously. They're not taking the business piece of it seriously. They think, oh, I can just dabble here and I can just dabble there and I can disappear, and I can come in and I can come out. Guys, consistency and patience is what builds a business.

12:30.4: So where in your business, again, are you blocking yourself? Where are you in fear not taking action around taking your business more seriously? Stepping up into more of a, what I call a CEO role, right? Boutique, CEO. 

17:19.0: The third piece of what's holding you back, I will tell you is accountability. What I see so often in my groups, what I see so often happen with boutique owners is we live in our world, our little lonely world, and we don't have the community of positive support.

17:57.4: Accountability is why we start to feel more responsible and more serious about our business. 

21:52.6: I want you to check in with yourself and ask yourself why you're not doing something about it. Why you're not showing up for your business, why you're not showing up for your life. Because something deeper is going on and something is blocking you. So get to that root cause, and start to take some action.
