I see a lot of women posting a meme…
“If you know me from a year ago, you don’t know me.”
You know, because they’ve changed,
grown,
evolved sooooooo much.
And, of course, I applaud it.
I grow and change every day.
That’s sort of the point. (of life)
I would HATE not to become MORE
every single day.
I can’t imagine a day in which I don’t grow in SOME way.
It’s literally unacceptable.
And while I may seem
BOLDER,
more CONFIDENT,
more DETERMINED,
than I was at 10 or 20 or 30…
I’m not.
I’ve ALWAYS been that girl.
I’ve always been the girl willing to stare down a challenge.
To fight when attacked,
to be suspicious,
to be slow to trust…
and QUICK to walk away when trust is broken.
I’ve always demanded loyalty,
and given it.
I’m still very much a loner.
I still have a “problem with authority.”
I still am DRIVEN by freedom.
I still don’t care what other people think.
I still don’t try to impress anyone.
People never had to “wonder” if I liked them,
if I was in love with them,
if I was ANGRY with them,
or hurt by them.
The same is true today.
I’ve always been a communicator.
People have — for decades — complained that I’m an over-communicator.
I’m STILL all of these things.
Perhaps I’m MORE of all of these things,
and I’m (I hope) WISER with how I wield certain strengths,
but I’m still all of these things.
One of my best friends and I met at 8 years old. Out to dinner a few months ago, she said, “You know… I met you when you were chubby and had huge glasses and you were 8. And you were as confident then as you are now.”
How COULD an fat, 4-eyed ugly duckling
be confident?
Because my CONFIDENCE has never had anything to do with what someone else thought of me. My confidence, my ability (preference?) to stand alone, to bet on me… has NEVER had anything to do with anything really…
My confidence muscle is finely honed.
It’s an inner thing,
an inside job.
And PART of my work within the walls of Women Who WOW is to help other women become — and SHOW– more of themselves… to bet on themselves… as a PREFERENCE, as a HABIT, not as a last resort.
To show and be MORE of themselves,
NOT ONLY to create a category of one in the business world, where they don’t have to “outrun” competitors,
but also…..
so they LOVE showing up everyday…
where they can LIVE, LOVE, and WORK
FULLY EMPOWERED (financially and otherwise)
AND
FULLY EXPRESSED…
where they are confident TODAY,
and every day FROM today,
showing up as the FULL THEM.
So that next year,
they can say,
“If you knew me a year ago,
you STILL know,
have ALWAYS known,
the real me.”
Showing up ruthlessly and unapologetically YOU
is an incomparable business strategy. There’s nothing like it, there’s nothing that can replace it.
It makes money,
but also..
friend…
it does so much more than that.
It allows you to make a deep impact,
to have a lasting influence.
And THAT is what Women Who WOW is doing….
Increasing Income,
of course.
but also, increasing impact and influence of our members.
If you are CURIOUS about Women Who WOW, message me today. I have a 30-day program that I want to give you… to help YOU BET ON YOURSELF.
