Women's Wisdom

Are you living your dream?

IF YOU AREN'T LIVING YOUR DREAMS, WHY NOT?

Have you tried living it for others? Your parents, your husband, your children, your work...

Have you tried following someone else's idea of success? Climbing the corporate ladder, or getting married or buying a house or having 2.5 kids...

Are you ready to live life your way, on your own terms?

Are you ready to stop Being Nice and instead BE REAL?

If you answered Yes and you're serious about living your dreams, then contact me to arrange a consultation   If not now, WHEN?

In Spirit,

Lauren

Feeling Poor? Read This!

If you have assets worth more than $61,000, you are among the world's richest 10 percent of adults.

Collectively that 10% owns 85 percent of the globe's total wealth.

Here's how the figures breakdown:

>> Richest 1 percent of the world's population owns 40 percent of global assets.

>> Riches 2 percent owns 50 percent.

>> Richest 10 percent owns 85 percent.

>> Poorest 50 percent of the world's population owns less than one percent of global assets.

Feeling less poor now? :D

Say Yes to Success - Instead of Maybe

You may have noticed that Women's Wisdom has been quiet the last few weeks. Previously, we've been exploring our everyday beliefs, the ones we operate from, often unconsciously. I was inspired to go further than just talking about these beliefs, and find a way to help you SHIFT from the old beliefs, to new, empowering ones.

By partnering with a colleague of mine, Ann Ross, who is an EFT Master, we co-created a teleclass series to assist you in releasing - once and for all - old beliefs that get in the way of your success. That's what I've been working on for the last few weeks. So Ta-Da! We're announcing our first inaugural teleclass together - Say Yes to Success (Instead of Maybe).

So often we put conditions on our success based on our fears, beliefs, etc. We want to put an end to that. If you're willing to take a risk, albeit a small one, join us for this transformative teleclass on May 2nd at 1:15pm Eastern. Sign up and details are included below. I hope to see you there!

In Spirit,

Lauren

P.S. - While this may be Ann and my first teleclass together, I've been teaching teleclasses for over 7 years. I just love the energy of teleclasses - the group dynamics, the wisdom, the synergy, the co-creation and most of all, meeting people from all over the world!

Say "YES" to Success (Instead of "Maybe")

No-cost Teleclass - Wednesday, May 2nd at 1:15 pm Eastern

The Law of Attraction states that like attracts like and thoughts become things. As you think, you magnetically attract things which resonate on the same frequency. When you look at your life and see it as a mirror it will be obvious to you where you are not resonating with what you really want. We act as a beacon for all of our thoughts and feelings without exception and we receive what we put out.

So what if you could change your thoughts and beliefs around what is possible for you?

Simply deciding you are going to change them is a great step forward; "practicing" and being aware of changing your thoughts is laudable. However, if you are looking for permanent change and a clearing of your energy system, we have evidence over and over again what energy psychology can do for us. This is the missing link to the Law of Attraction.

EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) changes your body's energy system and your physiology. You vibrate in line with what you want. Manifestation happens much more quickly when you are in alignment with the right vibration and feelings for what you want. There are no "ifs" or "buts" or "maybes"- it happens as a natural process. If you find it difficult to "allow" (one of the key principles of the Law of Attraction) you simply reduce or even eliminate the core belief that holds you back!

If you want to accelerate your success, break through the barriers that keep you from all the success you desire, or create the dream business you have always wanted that you KNOW you can create, join us for this f*r.e*e. teleclass!

Wednesday, May 2nd at 1:15 pm Eastern

Don't worry if you can't make the call - you can listen to it later. Register now and we'll send you a link to the call recording shortly after the live call completes.

This teleclass will be transformational and fast paced and held with deep love and compassion. Are you willing to transform? Are you willing to release the negative beliefs that keep you stuck? Are you willing to take the next step?

The Dream Squashers

It takes money to make money.

Anything worth having takes hard work.

You always have to work hard.

These are the beliefs I heard during a recent conversation with some of my friends who are also entrepreneurs. I noticed that speaking these beliefs did not empower the speaker, but instead seemed to create a feeling of defeat and hopelessness. These beliefs surfaced immediately following an inspired conversation about business visons and bold ideas. The beliefs had the effect of squashing the dream before it ever had a chance to become real. Squashed. Dead.

Let's take a closer look at these dream-squashing beliefs, for the sake of dreams everywhere.

It takes money to make money. Fact or fiction?

There are plenty of examples where some money has been used to make more money. That is definitely a possibility. But is it a requirement?

An event could be held to benefit a non-profit group with all services, promotions, advertising and even the location being donated and all labor provided by volunteers. No money required.

How about the dream of building a pottery retreat center? Needs are lodging for people to stay overnight. Options: Start with what you've got using existing lodging on the property or get sponsors to pay for building of cottages in exchange for advertising.

And what about bartering? There are several professional bartering networks around the country where people exchange services like massage, web design, PR, coaching, etc.

Maybe the more accurate belief is:  Making money takes an exchange of energy. (the energy can be in the form of dollars or time or labor or...)

Next belief: Anything worth having takes hard work. Fact or fiction?

This one's easy. So winning the lottery isn't worth having? Whew - that's a relief :D  Or when you receive a lovely gift from a good friend, it's not worth having because you didn't work hard for it? Really?

Next: You always have to work hard. Fact or fiction?

How do you define working hard? It is working at some task you don't like? Or one that is unpleasant? If you're doing something you enjoy, is it still working hard?

In recent months, my hardest working days have been spent getting dirty, hot/cold, hungry, sore muscles and worn out rescuing starving horses. The last rescue, I worked from 11am to 11pm, non-stop on my day off from my regular work. Did I work hard? You bet. Was it worth it? You bet! These horses were now safe, fed, and never to be hurt again. I never sleep better than when I've been 'all used up' making a difference and serving our fellow sentient creatures.

So I ask you again - If you're working hard (aka expending effort) doing something you love or that honors your values, is it still working hard? And if so, how do you discern it from working hard on something you don't enjoy?

One final note: it is not at all uncommon to have these dream-squashing (DS) beliefs surface immediately following the expression of a dream or a soul's desire. Coincidence? Not likely. These days, I look at these DS beliefs as confirmation of a big dream, a grand vision worth achieving. These DS beliefs also present a fabulous opportunity to clear out what is no longer serving you and definitely not serving your dream. It's just what you need to achieve your dream!

Until next week, In Joy,

Lauren

P.S. - Need some help clearing out and releasing those dream-squashing beliefs? Consider EFT - Emotional Freedom Technique - a fabulous tool for clearing out the old gunk quickly. And watch for my upcoming May Teleclass/Program co-created with Ann Ross, EFT Master, designed especially for Entrepreneurs. Space will be limited to ony 15 participants. More information on EFT, including a downloadable workbook, is available here.

What if you don't want to be Famous?

These days there is so much information on the Internet about how to get famous, get known now, be remarkable, find your niche, etc. And there's alot of GREAT information.

But what if you don't WANT to be famous? When I think of famous, I think of high-profile movie star or an appearance on Oprah. What if you don't want that kind of visibility and attention?

Maybe not wanting to be famous is a form of self-sabotage. Or maybe it's a result of being sensitive to judgment, attention and criticism. Or maybe it's just crazy.

Let's take a closer look...

Is it that you don't want success? Or is it that you want success on your terms?  I seriously doubt you want to be mediocre. Maybe what you really want is to make a difference. So is there a distinction between wanting your work to be known, but not necessarily YOU?

Let's take a real-life example. I'm passionate about Animal Rescue and specifically about addressing the pet overpopulation problem. It is unacceptable to me that we put 4-5 million cats, dogs, puppies and kittens to death every year in this country's animal shelters. On average, over 75% of the animals going into shelters - die. The only answer is Spaying and Neutering our pets, addressing the problem at the root . I want every pet to have a wonderful, forever home. EVERY PET!  This is WORK  I'm passionate about and work that I want to be FAMOUS and KNOWN - NOW.

In the name of this WORK, I would do alot to get it out there in public - taking the attention, being more visible, and being the advocate. I wouldn't do it it to promote myself; but I would do it to promote the WORK.  Note the distinction?

When you think about being famous or getting known now, what part of you responds? Does your ego jump up and say "Yes, that would be great!". Or does your mind jump in with some form of criticism or negativity? Does your heart expand or shrink? Do you get a knot in your stomach? All of these responses are valuable input and insight and clues as to what's important to you.

Maybe "getting famous" or "getting known" triggers some beliefs about what you will have to give up. Do you believe that to be successful, famous and known that you will have to give up your privacy and your sanctuary? Do you believe you will have a ton of obligations, responsiblities and commitments? Maybe you believe you will lose your free time and open space. Or that your calendar will be booked from dawn to dusk. Are these your beliefs about being famous? Or getting known? Or success? if so, then no wonder you don't want it! :D

My past experience with being known and being the expert (from corporate America) was that I was in  high demand. That part was OK. What was not OK was having people think I was the only one who could help them and not having the option to say NO. I was not in control of my own schedule. That leads to overwhelm and burnout.

So it is crazy to not want to be famous? Is it crazy to not want a media kit and press releases so you don't get asked to be on TV or radio? Does it make a difference if you promote your work vs. your Self?

Hmmm... This is a great opportunity to look at your beliefs around success, being known, and being famous. If they work for you and empower you - great! If they don't and are getting in the way of what you want then it's time to transform your beliefs. (See Resources section below)

Here's to your Success - whatever that looks like for you!

In Spirit,

Lauren

WHO do you need to BE?

WHO do you need to BE to have the life and the work you desire?

I'm not talking about marketing strategies, or systems, or niches - I'm talking about what qualities, characteristics, strengths do you need to activate to have the life you want?

I've heard many people, including myself, talk about wanting a successful business, a profitable business and those same people honestly believing that they are ready for that success, right now. But are they really?

Here's a simple exercise to determine if you are truly ready to allow your life and business to become successful now. Read the exercise all the way through once and then close your eyes and do the exercise.

Take a moment now to intentionally connect with you body in this moment, in present time. Take in some deep breaths, each time with the intention of becoming fully present and being with your body.

Feel yourself relaxing and settling into your body. Feel your body relaxing into the chair. Keep breathing deeply.

When you feel relaxed and connected with your body, notice it for a moment. Is there any part of your body you become aware of? How does your body feel, in general? If you can sense your body, then you're ready for the next step. If not, keep breathing deeply and relaxing until you can connect with your body and feel it.

Now that you're connected to your body, allow yourself to imagine your successful business or successful life. Imagine all the business coming in, all the customers you're serving, the income, your schedule, etc. Or imagine your life the way you want it, with all the rich details, including what your days are like. Keep imagining it until you can feel it in your body. Add details until it feels real.

Then ask your body if it is ready for this success. Observe your body. Does it stay in the expansive place of your ideal business/life? Or does it constrict or become tight somewhere?

If your body stays expansive, then you are most likely ready for success, as you've defined it, now. If your body gets tense, then your vision of what you're wanting is most likely in conflict with some other part of you.

WHO do you need TO BE to have the life you're wanting?

Maybe you need to be courageous, adventurous and a risk-taker. Or organized, systematic and disciplined. Or maybe you need to be inspirational, motivational and a public speaker. Maybe you need to be able to handle chaos without losing your center. Get the idea?

Knowing WHO you need TO BE and activating those qualities within yourself will bring success TO YOU. It will allow you to realize your vision.

BTW, if you're not sure WHO you need to be, keep focusing on your vision of your ideal life/business. You will attract the resources and experiences to activate those qualities within yourself.

Until next time, take good care of your Self -

In Joy,

How is your Relationship with Money?

One of my favorite exercises from the book "The Energy of Money" is writing a money auto-biography. You write about your history with money - your experiences, your thoughts and feelings about money - at different times in your life. When you're finished, you look over your auto-biography and see if there is a theme.

My money auto-biography was 14 pages long - I have alot of history with money :D  When I looked for a theme, I could see that for most of my life, I felt enslaved to money. It was my master and I felt I had no freedom.

In contrast, for a number of years in my late 30's, I was making alot of money and was able to free myself from the master/slave relationship with money. I didn't have to worry about money any more. So I didn't - I just went unconscious around money and paid minimal attention to it.

Only recently, having done alot of personal growth and work around my relationship with money & my beliefs around money, has my relationship with money been transformed. I never thought it was possible, but money is now my ally - an energy at my disposal to flow in the direction of my Soul's desires.

Money was a big, gnarly, scary dragon that I thought I had to slay. Imagine my surprise when I discovered I could befriend the dragon, climb on its back, and ride into the heavens!

How would you describe your relationship with money?

If it is less than what you would like it to be, consider joining me for an insightful, transforming adventure in the Energy of Money Book Club. If you do the work, your relationship with money WILL change. You don't have to take my word for it - you can try out the book club for 2 weeks before committing. Click Here to Register

Whatever you choose, know that money can be your ally!

True Wealth

"True wealth will follow you when you truly
care about your money, understand it,
and rejoice in all it can do.
You must care for your money
so that it can care for you."
- Suze Orman, "The Courage to be Rich"

Care about your money? I don't know about you,
but I have often seen my money less as something
I cared about (except for wanting more of it),
and more like a necessary evil.

Now I'm changing my relationship with money.
It is an ally that helps me create a lifestyle
where I can be my best and give back more to
the world. The more I have, the more I have
to give. And the more positive attention I
put on it, the more it seems to multiply.

Start caring about your money. Start thinking
about it working for you vs. the other way
around. Start today!
