EP 59: Reframing Thoughts and Overcoming Self-Sabotage with this Meditation
I want to invite us to celebrate ourselves. This topic is close to my heart right now because we are wrapping up my Dream Bigger Mastermind. We are completing our six-month journey together at the end of August, and it has been such an incredible ride.
As we reflect on this journey, I ask my group to think back to where they were in January. I encourage them to remember what their mind was telling them when they came across the Dream Bigger Mastermind. Were they trying to convince themselves not to join? Were they really excited and ready? What was their decision process like?
Start with Self-Reflection
This reflection is important for all of us. Think about something you really desire, something that scares you or something you've been thinking about for a while. What is your decision process like? Do you need a lot of information? Are you impulsive? Do you seek proof of concept or testimonials? Do you check in with someone else? Do you try to convince yourself not to do it because of a fear of failure?
Reflecting on where you were at the beginning of this year, what was your life like? How were you feeling? What were you struggling with? What did you want to change in your life? What goals had you set for yourself?
Transformations in the Dream Bigger Mastermind
My clients in the Dream Bigger Mastermind have had incredible transformations. One client shared that he was trying to convince himself not to join. Despite his instincts and his wife's success with my program, his logical brain was telling him it was too much money and time. He had all the reasons why not. But he still leaned in and joined.
He had an idea for years to launch a community to help men have more vulnerable conversations and awareness about mental health. Right after joining the Dream Bigger Mastermind, he launched his blog and Instagram account. He received immediate positive feedback. This project had been an idea for years, but he hadn’t acted on it until he had the support and accountability of the mastermind.
The Power of Community and Coaching
Being in a supportive community and working with a coach makes all the difference. We hold you accountable and help you reframe your thoughts. We do healing work to identify what parts of you feel unsafe and prevent you from taking action. This process helps you feel safe enough to take the action, even if it still feels scary. And once you take that action and realize you didn’t die, you gain momentum.
Overcoming Self-Doubt
Another example is this same client who was dissatisfied with his job. He saw a job listing but didn't apply because he didn’t think he was qualified. A recruiter approached him, and with our coaching, he trusted the process. He showed up confidently, shared what he could bring to the table, and ended up being offered the job. He even negotiated the salary, despite being told it was non-negotiable.
This story highlights the importance of asking for what you want. So many people sell themselves short and don’t ask for promotions or more money. But if you don’t ask, you’ll stay in the same place. Men often make more money than women simply because they ask for it. So lean into the discomfort and ask for more.
Rapid Progress in the Mastermind
This client not only launched his project and got a new job, but he also got a side consulting job. All of this happened within the first three months of the Dream Bigger Mastermind. We continued to work on his beliefs, anxiety, and sense of deservingness.
Another Success Story: Lucy
Another client, Lucy, a body worker, was burnt out and struggling financially at the beginning of the year. Through our coaching and healing work, she turned her business around, made the most money she’s ever made, and moved to her dream city of San Diego. She started her business from scratch and is already seeing success.
All my clients in the Dream Bigger Mastermind have had incredible wins. They have manifested amazing opportunities, stepped outside their comfort zones, healed their money wounds, and attracted more money. I love helping people up-level their lives and create a life that’s authentic to them.
