The Shift Mindset Coaching

Gratitude

Grateful for growth
Grateful for peace
Grateful for family and friends
Grateful for health
Grateful for stability (mind, body, soul)

Grateful for highs
Grateful for lows
And everything in between

Grateful I don't have everything figured out, because the beauty in life is that it unfolds exactly as it should when I surrender and "flow" ❤

Completed the Gobble Gooble 5k this morning.

Some people were racing for time. Some people were there to enjoy family time. Some kids had scooters. And some were solo and focused on personal health goals.

The point is...everyone was running their own race. Even though we were gathered in the same place, we were focused on doing the race OUR way at OUR pace.

Life is short. There's no need to compare. Stay focused on running your own race. Gratitude help

What are you grateful for today?

How Much Faster Could I Move Without The Baggage of Other People?

This was a question I asked myself 5 years ago as I was learning more about the root cause of my “people pleasing nice girl” persona. 

One day as I journaled before bed, I realized that all of my stressors that day were for reasons outside of myself.

My therapist at the time taught me about “Life Traps” (self defeating patterns of thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that keep us stuck).

My particular life trap theme was “Subjugation”. Somewhere along the way I had learned to let other people have their way most of the time. It’s a pattern of behavior that leads you to do almost anything to be liked…even to the point of going against your own best interest.  

Two types of subjugation stood out:

Self-sacrifice: (subjugation out of guilt, want to relieve the pains of others)

Submissiveness: (subjugation out of fear, anticipate rejection, retaliation, or abandonment)

Tomorrow I’ll be sharing the #1 Secret to Building A Wellness Business WITHOUT Cutting Off People You Love. 

If you’ve been following along the past 3 weeks you probably already know what the secret is….

But tomorrow I’m going to dive deep into WHY cutting off people you love is actually detrimental to your success, and WHY “more time to work on your business” isn’t the actual solution to your current business woes.  

Even after doing a ton of internal work around boundaries before starting my business, in order to SHIFT to the next level I had to move beyond the EXTREMES off boundary setting (aka cutting people off) 

To a more nuanced and fluid approach that required a different version of me. 

✔You’ve invested in branding.
 
✔You’ve invested in marketing

✔ And you’ve invested in a bomb website and social media posts.

Now you’re at a point in your entrepreneurial journey where you must invest in YOURSELF as the CEO.

It’s time to SHIFT from Surviving CEO to THRIVING CEO. 

Self-sacrifice, over-giving, burnout cycles rooted in a lack of self-care, and hustle culture rules simply WILL NOT DO👏🏾.

🤑Anybody Else Ever Tried To Throw Money At Their Problems? 👇🏾Read This👇🏾

👑You’ve Declared It’s your winning Season.

And You’re Starting To Show up and give it your all in your Wellness Business…but you’re feeling overwhelmed 🥴

And wait…what’s that…

You’re about to hire a VA and start Building a TEAM?

Ayyyeeeeeeee🎉🎉🎉

Let’s Gooooooo 🔥🔥🔥🔥

You’re a BOSS boss now
**slow nod of admiration**

But before you try to start managing others….

Answer This Question:

Have I successfully learned how to manage MYSELF?

Virtual Assistants are great

But if you’re having trouble creating and maintaining with yourself, others, and within your business

Adding a Virtual Assistant to the mix won’t be much help.

I know you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stressed out, and you’re trying to figure out how to get that never ending to-do list done

I know you’re ready to spend more time in your “Zone of Genius”, and delegate the less-critical tasks to a Virtual Assistant.

But here’s the thing…you can’t outrun yourself.

Hiring that VA to delegate tasks to WON’T “Increase Your Peace”, but there IS something you can do instead.

Join me tomorrow on IG Live at 1pm EST where I’ll share the reasons WHY hiring that VA won’t “Increase your peace”….and give tips for what you can do instead.

Doing the “right” thing at the wrong time is a waste of time, money, and energy.

I’ll see you tomorrow at 1pm EST!

Be Well,

Who’s in the Drivers Seat In Your Business? 👇🏾

You started you wellness business to help others live a more healthy and fulfilled life.

As the CEO of your business you are in charge of goals, timeline, and HOW your company achieves it’s goals.

🗣You’re moving too “slow”…..

🗣You’re not “successful” until you hit THIS goal

🗣 You’re not a reeeaaallll CEO (because no other business needed time and space to GROW right? 🤦🏾‍♀️)

So Who’s in the driver’s seat of your business?

If you’re constantly feeling burnt out I can guarantee the internal rules you’ve been following are not your own.

Because a well rested, well loved, and well nurtured CEO will get BETTER results than a stressed, overworked, and sleep deprived CEO.

❤️Your family matters.

❤️Your loved ones matter.

❤️Your Joy, Peace, and overall Quality of Life MATTERS.

As a mission driven Wellness Entrepreneur your personal values and beliefs won’t ALLOW you to build a business in a way that neglects your mental, spiritual, and emotional well-being.

This Fall I’ve created a space for you to Slow Down, REST, and Recurpurate while ALSO making progress towards your business goals.

You’ll follow a simple curriculum and receive 1:1 and group support as you learn to Create and Maintain Healthy Personal Boundaries as the CEO.

So who’s in the drivers seat of your business?

Burnout is a sign that you need to reevaluate things, because YOU are in the drivers seat as the CEO.

If you’d like support not only Creating, but MAINTAINING healthy boundaries as a Wellness Entrepreneur, type “SHIFT” in the comments below for more info.

Allow yourself to RECEIVE the gift of support as you Create and Maintain HEALTHY personal boundaries with ease.

Much Love,
❤️Coach Dee

Are YOU wearing YOURSELF out? Read This 👇🏾

6 months into building my Wellness Business I sat in my office exhausted, and as I blankly stared at the wall it hit me.

I had left the “rat race” only to re-create the same rules and expectations for MYSELF that had driven me crazy in the 9-5 world.

Sure, I invested in sales, branding, and marketing coaches. But I didn’t take time to examine unhealthy mindsets and beliefs that were deeply engrained in my psyche.

The business rules I followed were steeped in White Supremacy and Survival Culture, and quite frankly NOT the type of business model this startup Wellness Entrepreneur could relate to.

🗣 Hustle til you die. (Because only hustle creates results…)

🗣 Go hard or go home. (Because life HAS to be hard…)

🗣 It’s lonely at the top so normalize cutting off everyone you know! (Even people that add value and that you love and enjoy)

🗣 There will be sleepless nights, and you’ll never have time for fun. (Because apparently you’ll sleep when you die…)

✅ YES, you have to make changes to your personal life in order to make space to nurture and grow your business.

✅ And just like any other MAJOR life change, you won’t be as available to friends and family as you once were.

❌ But NO, you don’t have to operate in extremes.

All that pressure you’re putting on yourself is evidence that you’re still operating in SURVIVAL mode….and that’s ok ❤ Because helped you be successful in your old life.

BUT…there’s also a little thing called BOUNDARIES that helps you achieve your goals WITHOUT going to extremes.

And I’m here to help you create HEALTHY boundaries, because boundaries are not created equal.

👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾
