✨Hyper-Independence Is a Shield, But Softness Is Your Superpower✨
Early on in my business, I wore my hyper-independence like armor. In my mind, I had good reason to rely ONLY on myself. I had been through life-altering trauma and couldn’t trust many people.
I convinced myself that if I could handle everything alone, I’d never be disappointed, never be vulnerable, never need to rely on anyone.
As a result, I resisted support from coaches. I figured, “I’ve got this” and I can figure out how to scale on my own.
But having this mindset stunted my business growth BIG time.
🥵Quite frankly, it was exhausting. To have to DO IT ALL. I was really burying my emotions behind this armor – this wall I built around my heart to protect myself.
After moving through deep inner healing around this, I met myself with compassion and tenderness. I learned that I could be discerning with who I trusted – but first I had to trust myself.
Hyper-independence is a survival response. 💡
The real superpower? Softness. Receptivity. The ability to allow yourself to receive—love, support, opportunities, abundance.
When I started embracing my FEMININE – my softness, my vulnerability – everything shifted.
Here’s what I did – 👇👇
#1. I hired people to help me. I worked 1:1 with coaches who could accelerate my path. Where I couldn’t hide in a big group – I faced off with myself.
I hired a team that I could delegate to. I invested in my business and support and I naturally expanded my capacity.
#2. I took off the perfection mask and started being vulnerable with my audience and the people in my life. I stopped HIDING behind my doctorate degree and began showing up as ME.
And guess what happened?
Clients showed up with ease.
My relationships deepened.
Life began to FLOW instead of feeling like a constant uphill battle.
If you’re tired of holding it all together, of feeling like you have to do it alone… I see you.
This is why I’ve created my ⭐Rise & Receive membership⭐ —a space designed to help you release the weight of over-responsibility and step into the energy of ease, abundance, and true support.
Reply to this email with “TELL ME MORE” and I’ll share details on how to join Rise and Reiceve. It’s time to rise—not by doing more, but by allowing yourself to receive. ✨
