155: How To Leverage Being Only Two Steps Ahead

Is something holding you back from fully shining your light? Is there hidden resistance in your messaging?

This week, I asked one of my clients how aligned she felt with her brand positioning, to which she said a solid 8 or 9.

Sounds great, right?!

My question was, how do we make this a 10?

It turned out that her sticking point was around her authority – she felt she wasn’t advanced enough in one aspect of her life, which was preventing her from thinking she could support her clients with their similar goals.

She was hiding her light!

You might wonder, if you are suffering with some of the symptoms with the things you want to help your clients with, does it make you a good person to help them?

The answer is yes!

When we find solutions that work for us and works for our clients, we continue to deploy these solutions in our own lives in order to achieve the outcome we desire.

And sharing that personal journey and vulnerability is incredibly powerful.

Guidance doesn’t have to come from some guru who tells you they’ve done everything perfectly, prescribing strict steps that seems unrealistic. People want authenticity and relatability as they seek their results.

When I started sharing here on Goals With Soul how being an overthinker was affecting my ability to manifest, it was a turning point for me.

This really resonated with my listeners and I was asked when I was going to hold a manifesting workshop – this seemed crazy, how could I teach this when I spoke of how much I was struggling with it?!

But there is such value in being just a couple of steps ahead as your clients seek guidance.

The online coaching space is about connection and relatability.

You don’t have to have all aspects of your life fully in shape in order to be a mentor.

It’s OK to be authentic and to be vulnerable in the content that you share.

Let your vulnerability exemplify the core message that you teach.

Enjoy the listen!
