Happy Friday Reader!
​

I've had the same conversation about six times these past couple of weeks. With clients, with people close to me, with myself. Fear.

One of my clients said it flat out: making that first invitation, sending that email, that DM... It's not the words that are hard; it's her head, her mindset. She just needs to push send.

Someone close to me is ready to start her own thing, and the only thing in her way is putting herself out there. So a few mornings this week, I sent her pictures — coffee, journal, the fire on my back deck, the slow morning that's possible when you design your business this way- and said, "Freedom starts with that first email." (Side note...she sent it out this week, and immediately had 2 responses to set up meetings. 🙌🏼)

And someone else... ready to hire, finally, after doing it ALL herself for way too long... and suddenly the money side feels scary. But girl. What could you do with all that extra time?!

Fear can hold you back. But it only takes ONE tiny step to make it feel real. Even if it's really scary.

That little bit of space you carve out can make more space for you to spend time doing the things that actually light you up!
​
ONE tiny step can move the needle so much farther than you might think.

I've got my own fear thing going on too. My heart's been sitting on a big decision for about three months now. Not ready to talk about it yet. But dang, fear is hard to get past, especially when it involves other people. If you've got something like that circling, I get it.

So here's to taking ONE SMALL STEP. Saying yes to yourself. Because when your cup is filled, so is everyone else's around you.

If your one step has anything to do with building income beyond your treatment room, come talk it through with me. Book a free Expansion Session.

Why Doesn't the Mirror Match How You Feel? Aging, Self-Image, and Botox​
Amy Wall was named US Esthetician of the Year in 2016, and running on adrenaline behind the scenes. What she built afterward wasn't a better product. It was a completely different way of looking in the mirror. She's amazing...trust me, you'll want to listen to this one. We could all be a little kinder to ourselves in the mirror. 😘
