THAT NEEDY SHIT YOU’VE GOT GOING ON? WHERE YOU’RE HOLDING ON TO NOT QUITE RIGHT INSTEAD OF INSISTING ON AWESOME? LET’S STOP THAT
I want to talk to you real quick about that needy shit you’ve got going on. You know –
The GRASPING you do.
Where you hold on.
Desperately.
(Embarassingly, let’s face it)
To something that’s just, well –
No.
Actually.
And you tell yourself –
It’s not so bad! They’re not THAT high maintenance … whingy moany … lacking in EVERY FUCKING THING you demand in a client, a friend, a lover, yourself.
Oh, and when I say you demand? In your dreams, baby, because while you SAY you want the best, are the best, work with the best, do the best, ETC, what’s actually happening?
So let’s talk, you and I, let’s sit down, you and I, let’s CHAT, you and I, let’s get REAL, you and I, let’s get our shit TOGETHER, you and I, and when I say you and I oh TRUST me I do mean both of us, because never forget:
Any lesson I pass on to you is one I’ve first WELL kicked my own butt on first 😉
And coming from that KINDA tender place of having learned my lessons hard, in business, first, with money, next, in fitness, at one point, and now in life and LOVE, I’m gonna tell you this:
When you let go of the needy shit, you feel a DAMN fine sight better. You can BREATHE again. You can hold your BACK up, and fucking SMILE. You look hotter too, for SURE.
And also?
(And you might wanna write this one down)
When you stop holding on to the not quite right I guess it’ll do for now it’s just how it IS and it’s all I can GET shit –
You make way for your SOUL people to find you.
And I was thinking, today, about this, today, for oh so many areas, today, and I was listening, today, to messages, today, from my BADASS clients, today, all of whom basically just check in or get on a call with me to tell me how awesome both they AND I are, and then what they’ve launched | sold | created | unleashed, oh, and “thank you Kat, you’re the best!”, and I was thinking about how AMAZING coaching is these days, and then I was thinking back to some years ago when it felt –
Ugh.
A drain.
Hard.
Frustrating.
And I thought (and perhaps you’ve said this too?! But I’ll wager you don’t really mean it!), I thought –
“I HATE coaching! I’m NEVER DOING IT AGAIN!” *stomps foot and storms off*
And now – ?
I have fucking STANDARDS inside’o’my STANDARDS baby.
And oh my heaven and earth holy GOD I can tell you that when you start working with your SOUL people life is so.damn.FINE!
This don’t just apply to business, you understand 😉
So here’s what I want to tell you.
Today.
A message.
Today.
As my fingers fly quickly over my keyboard to get this out, wine at the ready, friends about to arrive at this beautiful wine bar, a live performance ahead, for this evening’s festivities, but I can NOT turn into that until I turn this out for you:
“Are you scared about business?” “Do you think it’s okay to keep marketing as usual right now?” “I just don’t really know what the appropriate way to show up is right now” “These are uncertain times, business is definitely going to suffer!” “Should I do pandemic marketing?” “Should I NOT do pandemic marketing?” “I hate
I wonder, when things don’t go your way, you don’t get what you want or you find yourself feeling down and out, hurting, confused about how such and such happened AGAIN or why you still didn’t break through, do you actually pause to ask why you chose that? Or are you so gung-ho about picking
Sigh. Why is it, do you think, that we need to hear things a thousand times over (and then some!) before we actually ‘get it’, and that when all is said and done if it’s a SIMPLE answer and one that might actually be fun, easy, freeing, we just don’t trust it?! Can I tell
I know you want to just make it up as you go, believe you can follow that damn flow, never have to answer to NOBODY, no, not even your own self, but can I ask you a question? ^^ how’s that actually working out for you? Not in a surface-answer “I did this, I did
