[00:00:00] Hello, gorgeous lady. Welcome back to Higher Self and I. Today we are diving into the difference in mindset energetics. Strategy from holding a three K month in your business, two to three K month revenue in your business to a 10 K month revenue in your business. And what I see the difference is when I work with my clients and a lot of my clients will scale very quickly to 10 K months and beyond.

[00:00:28] And what we really work on during that time, Not only to be able to hold that amount of money to hold that amount of clients, but what it actually takes behind the scenes, what it takes from a strategic point of view, what it takes from a mindset perspective, energy perspective, and how you can start doing things.

[00:00:47] Now if you are around the two to K, two to K, two to three K months kind of hitting consistently, or you're just working yourself towards that and you're kind of in that phase where you're like, oh, glad that, like, okay, I've done that now. I'm ready to, to start scaling up to 10 K and, and making 10 K consistently.

[00:01:05] And what I want you to have a look at, if that's something that you want to bring into your business, so let's dive in. The very first thing that we're gonna have a look at today is of course, da, da, da, beliefs and mindset. How much money would you have put on me talking about that first, and actually what happens is when we're stepping into a new amount of revenue, and this doesn't have to be from two K to 10 K, it, it could be from no zero pounds to one k like.

[00:01:38] All of these things that I'm talking about in today's podcast episode can be related to whatever you are working on, the gap that you are trying to jump to. It can be from 10 K to 20 k, just it's all relative in what I'm talking about. I'm just gonna use the example from like two to three K to 10 K today.

[00:01:56] So achieving a 10 K month, it requires. A strong belief in your ability to actually generate a higher amount of income, uh, attract more clients and have that abundance mindset. And your subconscious is going to play a very, very crucial role in shape shaping your beliefs and shaping your attitude and your trust in moving into more money, more success, more wealth, more.

[00:02:28] Team, um, more clients, more energy to hold that being in front of new eyes. It's a real shift in yourself. It's a real shift in your mindset and how you show up for you, and it's really important to know what beliefs are or aren't holding you back when we are moving into that. Because what took you to two to three K months is gonna be very different to what's gonna take you to 10 K and sustaining the [00:03:00] 10 K and holding the 10 K consistently, and then carrying on to build that if you want to go beyond the 10 K.

[00:03:07] So the first thing I want you to have a look at is, Whatever the amount that you're working towards right now, monetary or the amount of clients that you want to to serve, if that works better for you, like the amount of clients that you wanna bring in, or the amount of community you want to build.

[00:03:24] Wherever your focus is right now, have a look at the beliefs of you stepping into that, because a lot of the time it comes down to the lack of, or the amount of trust that you have within yourself. God, I ca I could do that. Well, I've never experienced that before, so I don't think I can. You are fighting a losing battle if that's the belief system that you are showing up to, to create more.

[00:03:56] So where are the beliefs sitting for you around having more or serving more, or holding more community clients money, wherever that looks like. What beliefs come up for you? Straight away. What's the first thing that came into your head when I say we're gonna make 10 K tomorrow? It's probably excitement.

[00:04:15] Probably excitement. But if there's those little tiny beliefs that go, Hmm, well, could you hold that amount? I could. You really could. We really do that. What beliefs are showing up around that? Now I know, and I'm gonna talk from experience when it comes to growing a community and growing a following, I held myself back slash slightly still do because of a belief I have around people judging me.

[00:04:45] So I have to really work on the my belief system around holding more amounts of people on, like more eyes on me and the fact that I can't control what they think about me. I can't control their opinion. I can't control their judgment. I can't control their map of the world, and I have to be okay with that if I want to step into the dream that I'm making for my business and for my life.

[00:05:11] I have to be okay with that, and that feels really uncomfortable and it has felt really uncomfortable. The bigger I get, the bigger the business gets. The, the more I travel, the amount of judgment that I get from traveling is ridiculous, but I have to be okay with that because it's their map of the world.

[00:05:28] It's how they're showing up, it's the beliefs that they come from, and I have to work on that as a belief. So that's just an example of what happened from me going from where I was to where I am now. In the way of like following and having the wealth that I have and having the clients that sign with me and holding that, that space to the clients.

[00:05:47] I had to do a lot of work on the judgment piece. I had to do a lot of work on letting go of the controlling what people think about me because people are gonna think it regardless. I can never control that. And actually it's their map [00:06:00] of the world. It's their beliefs, it's what they've shown up and it's how they've been brought up.

[00:06:05] I can't control that. So I had to do a lot of work in detaching from that belief. Still have to work on it to this day. I had a little tiny viral TikTok video go out yesterday, which was quite vulnerable and quite personal about my, um, journey so far. And oh my God, did I have to do some work on that this morning?

[00:06:26] It felt scary. It felt scary that that amount of eyes of that amount of opinions or comments could potentially come through. I have to be okay with that if that's where I want to go to. So really having a look at the beliefs and the mindset around moving into quote unquote 10 K or whatever that goal is for you.

[00:06:44] The second thing is creating the safety. Again, I speak about this till the cows come home, but creating the safety in being able to hold it. So let's take, again, I'm taking the 10 K as an example, holding two to three K, reoccurring revenue or cash or revenue, whatever that is for you, however you equate it in your head.

[00:07:07] Holding that versus holding 10 K is very different. And actually they're probably, and I'm gonna be talking about this in a minute, but there's probably team members that you need, if you are hitting consistent 10 k, there's probably a better, um, client experience that you need. There's probably more ways that you are gonna be seen and heard and places that you wanna be because you're probably starting to move into passive courses.

[00:07:32] There's a very, it's a very different way of spending money, probably a very different way of investing and a very different way of. Outgoings, your outgoings are gonna look very different. So how are you going to hold that? And actually having the, the ability to know, okay, if I am making 10 K, this is where it's going.

[00:07:52] This is what I'm spending it on. This is where I'm heading in my business, so this is what I need to be investing in. It's gonna look very different to the two three K that you're sitting in right now. Again, equivalent to whatever you are working on. So having a look at the ability to be able to hold that, write it down, this is what I'm gonna spend it on.

[00:08:09] This is where it's gonna go. This is what I'm gonna work on. This is where I'm gonna be. Really educating the subconscious mind on how you are going to hold that, how safe it's going to feel when you get there, because you already know. It's not gonna, you know, fall upon you and boom, there we have it. You know, this is why no one, pretty much, no one who wins the lottery actually keeps the money because they haven't done the work in how to go from earning their wage to earning a a hundred million pounds sometimes.

[00:08:40] And a lot of them end up in more debt than how they started because they haven't created the safety in holding that amount of money. So I want you to do that before you get there so you don't have to freak out when you get there. That's what we are trying to eliminate. We're trying to process that before it gets there, because I see time and time [00:09:00] again.

[00:09:00] I can think of three examples in my head of clients who came to me because of it, who hit 10 K and then didn't again, because it felt so scary and so big, and the prep work hadn't been done to hold it. So they sabotaged and then we had to build back up again. So really, really looking at your ability to hold the 10 k.

[00:09:23] Number three, strategy and execution is gonna look very different. Scaling from three K a month to 10 K a month typically involves adjusting your business strategy. It's going to look different. It's either gonna be like expanding your community or increasing your sales and conversion rate, or improving the way that you speak to people or the, the honing in on your positioning and your messaging and how you show up for that.

[00:09:51] Coming into kind of the creativity and the problem solving and the maintaining the focus, all of that shifts and changes when you're stepping into that next phase, that next level of your business. And you need to be okay with that. And you need to be open to learning that. And you need to be open in maybe shifting a few things that actually might be working that you are sitting on three K right now.

[00:10:14] Cause it feels safe. Maybe it feels like that that strategy that you know, will probably take you to 10 K feels unsafe right now. So you are not stepping into it. You don't wanna bring in more people because it just feels unsafe. So wanting and knowing the strategy and execution around how that looks different.

[00:10:32] How consistent 10 K months. You cannot run your business on a whim anymore. You can't. There's gonna be the tax man involved. You're gonna need an accountant to help you. There's lots of different things that happen when you're holding and stepping into that next level of your business. You can't run your business like a hobby anymore.

[00:10:52] You have to have systems and structures and procedures on how you do things. SOPs for things. You're probably gonna have a team, maybe 1, 2, 3 team members that are supporting you. Are you putting things in place right now, or are you waking up one day and being like, Ugh, I should really write a piece of content today.

[00:11:10] Let's just do that. Now, that ain't gonna fly when you're at 10 k. That's not gonna fly. You're, you're going to have to be more organized and more self-disciplined, which is something I'm talking about in a, in a couple of points time. But it changes. It's a different way of showing up for your business, and it's a different way for showing up for yourself strategically and through the execution.

[00:11:32] Number four, risk tolerance. I speak about this a lot because scaling your business means that you can no longer play safe. You can get to a point, and then you can sit on that point where you know like, oh, okay, this feels quite scary right now, but okay, I think I can stay here for a little bit. You enjoy that and you're like, right, I'm ready for the next level.

[00:11:53] That takes risk. Maybe it's risking I. Risk like the building your risk tolerance and [00:12:00] investing in someone who you know is gonna help you move into that next level. I know that's definitely something what that my clients come to me for because they're at that consistent two three K 4k, 5K a lot of the time.

[00:12:12] Kind of like consistently ploting along, got a little bit stagnant in their business and they're like, shit, I'm ready for that next level. And I know it's myself that's holding me back. And they have to take that risk on themselves. It's a big investment to work with me one-to-one. It's that risk of going, you know what?

[00:12:28] I actually feel like I could do this. I trust Becky and I have evidence that she's done it with other people, but I'm showing up for myself within this container. I don't think she's gonna do it for me. In fact, I know she's not gonna do it for me, but I'm showing up in this container. It means investing in me more resources, exploring new places to, to get your clients potentially in.

[00:12:50] A lot of times it means having a look at your product suite. That one offer that you got very used to selling. That happened to me. I got very, very used to selling one-to-one, wasn't taking any risks. You know, like it's really shifting into a new way of doing things and you have to be and step into the bravery of that.

[00:13:09] The bravery of trying something new, the bravery of going, wow, okay, this feels really scary, but man alive, if I am hitting that amount of money or bringing that amount of clients in, that is, oh, what could I do then? That's already, you've already worked that out in step two of this podcast. So yes, your risk tolerance is higher, so that means your bravery muscle needs to be stronger.

[00:13:30] And number five, time management, productivity, self-discipline. This is something that I come back to time and time again with my clients because you have to say you're gonna do something and you have to follow through, and that is a muscle that you have to train. It is. Again, and again and again because it comes to self-trust comes to the first point that I spoke about in today's podcast.

[00:13:55] That, that trust of yourself to be able to do it. And as you grow and as you get more clients in, or as you are making more content, or as you're speaking to more people, your time management needs to be shit hot. Really, really good. And again, you can't be like ramp because you've probably got a team supporting at you at that point.

[00:14:17] And this is this something I learned the hard way because this is what I used to do, is I'm like, right, I fancy launch in something tomorrow, so guys, you wanna help me? Mm-hmm. No, that's not how it works anymore. You need to be forward planning. You need to be focusing, you know, Q3 is already planned out for me and we're.

[00:14:34] Still four weeks out. So you know, everything needs to be planned and focused and knowing where you are going with your content, with your messaging, with what you're selling, with who you are, what you're stepping into, that needs to be better. You, you know, your subconscious mind is going to really help you with this if you trust yourself and you can keep improving your time management skills.

[00:14:59] [00:15:00] Comes back to the prefrontal cortex, you know, the c e o brain of your, the c e o of your brain. You need to be using that. When we are scaling to 10 K, you can't be on a whim anymore. And yes, of course you can still have the flow and you can still put things out that feels good or you know, like, uh, what you, whatever you wanna talk about.

[00:15:18] But it has to have structure to where you are going. It has to have structure to what you are working towards rather than grasping at thin air, trying to hope that this one's gonna land. And then the last one that I wanna speak to today is actually like honesty with yourself. Like that constant evaluation and in and adjustment and letting go of what you're making it mean because when you are kind of building and, and building bigger, and playing bigger and getting into that bigger space, whether it's.

[00:15:50] Bigger in the way of the people that you, the amount of clients that you hold, or the money that you make, or the way that you show up for your community. You need to be honest with yourself. You need to be working on yourself. You need to be adjusting, and you can't make it mean anything other than the business transaction that you're doing because when you're constantly making business, transactions mean something about yourself that you're not good enough or this is never gonna work for me.

[00:16:17] Like that doesn't fly when you are playing big. It doesn't fly anymore. So evaluating your pro your processes, evaluate, evaluating your progress, adjusting the strategy accordingly, analyzing your results, identifying the areas for improvement. That's sometimes hard to look at when you are your, your, your, your own business, your your personal brand.

[00:16:37] And actually that detachment of, of being able to be adaptable and resilient and receptive to feedback and. Allowing yourself to refine your business strategy needs to come from a place of like, okay, this has nothing to do with me. This is just genuinely what needs to happen for my business to move forwards.

[00:16:56] It can't be about you anymore. It's, it's more transactional. It's more about what the, what does my business need? It's not what do I like? Yes, what do I need? Of course. But like when we're, when we're looking at growing and scaling your business, what does my business need right now? It's got nothing to do with me in the way of how I'm making this mean.

[00:17:16] Something about me and my identity. It's about the business. We have to separate it and we have to detach it. We have to become neutral. I no longer get hung up on nose or. The way things haven't worked the way I want them to because I've become neutral to that, because I can't hold onto that. If I hold onto that and hold onto the thinking, it's something about me.

[00:17:43] I've wasted two weeks. I haven't got two weeks to waste. So really detaching from the stories that you make. It mean if it doesn't work and things aren't gonna work, you know it's business, it's trial and error. That's what business is about. Like we have to be here for trial and error. So letting go of the [00:18:00] detachment of what you make it mean for yourself.

[00:18:02] So those are the five things that I will always look at with clients, especially my longer term clients. Three months, six month, one-to-one container. But to recap beliefs and mindset. The ability to hold whatever you are working towards, the strategy and execution will have to shift change, be more, um, precise in what you're working towards.

[00:18:25] Your risk tolerance and bravery muscle will be stretched, and you have to be okay with that. Time management and productivity and self-discipline has to become a thing that you hone and work on. And lastly, the, the ability to detach and have that continuous evaluation, continuous adjustment and be okay with that looks very different.

[00:18:48] So I hope this has opened your eyes in. Some way, shape, or form. Again, if you have any questions, drop into the dm, send me an email. I'm here to support you, and if it's one-to-one that you're after, if you are looking from going from that two three K mark, or you know you're stuck in that stagnant of your business right now and you are ready to step into that next level with safety and stability and sustainability.

[00:19:10] I am your gal. I'll see you on the next episode. Bye-bye.
