Are you ready to take that next step in your business and truly embody the version of yourself that not only acts like a complete, badass boss bitch? Well, today on the podcast, I'm going to share with you three mindset shifts that I believe you need to make in order to move your business and yourself to the next level. Hey, friend, are you ready to take courageous steps to create a life and business you love?

Hey there, welcome to The Couragecast. My name is Andrea and I am your host, I am so excited to be back with you. You know what, this morning I woke up and it was like fall is in the air. And there is nothing I love more than feeling like the crunch of the leaves underneath my feet, although they haven't completely fallen off the trees yet. But I love having new seasons. And as much as I loved summer, and it's like the best season in the world. I also really love fall. And there are new things happening in my life. There's probably new things happening in your life as we move and shift into a new season. And today I want to talk about what does that shift look like in your life, when you're moving from one belief to the next. So you might be in a place in your life and your business right now where you're like, Yeah, I'm a small business owner, or I'm a coach, or I am an entrepreneur. But I don't really feel like the CEO of my business. And you maybe even don't even know what that is or what that would feel like or what kind of shifts you would need to take or making your life in order to step into that new level in your business. So today, I want to talk about three shifts that you can make when it comes to mindset.

2:45
And how you can start embodying this next level version of yourself within your business. So maybe if you're thinking to yourself right now, like Well, that's a big leap like that, you know, from where I am now. Maybe it just started, you know my business a year ago, and you're already wanting me to like jump into the CEO mindset. Wherever you're finding yourself today, I'm sure there's going to be something that you can take from this particular podcast episode. It was actually interesting, because the other day I was talking to somebody who's very new in the online space. And she's like, Yeah, I already feel like a boss. But it was really interesting, because once we started to dive a little deeper into what her mindset was, there were so many indications that she really wasn't owning up to the level of success that she wanted or desired, or allowing herself to truly step into that level of success. So if you're feeling that way, I hope that you will get something from this particular episode that you can take away, you can implement into your life. And of course, I'd love to hear about that. You can follow me on Instagram at you can follow me on Instagram at at Andrea crisp coach and tell me what one of your takeaways are from this episode. So the first thing I want to talk about is having a paradigm shift. And that's a fancy word for saying mindset shift. Because when you think about a paradigm, which is learning I've gotten from Bob Proctor, when you have a paradigm shift, it's almost like you have this way of being shift, this way of believing shift. So when we're in an old paradigm, we are functioning out of an old way of thinking, believing and being.

4:39
But when we step into a new paradigm or a new place in our lives, we're essentially shifting into something that is leveled up something that is taking us to another space and time and really shifting our way of thinking and being so this is kind of like the actual definition, and important change that happens when the usual way of thinking about or doing something is replaced by a new and different way. Okay, so I probably could have just said that. But I wanted to explain it in a way that maybe you could relate to a little bit more. So the first thing I want to talk about is how to create a new paradigm for yourself, when it comes to your business, because as we know, you know, we are in the business, right, we are taking part in the business, we are the person who is the business in some senses, but really, the business is only going to elevate to the level you are elevating. And even if there are people in your world that are your support team, and people who are, you know, part of what you do within your business, maybe your staff or people who are, you know, on retainer for you or contract with you, they're only going to go to a certain level, depending dependent upon where you are going.

6:07
Okay, so creating a new paradigm for yourself in business you have to ask yourself this question, what would that look like? And what would that feel like? Because you're creating what you desire. So if you're like, I want to feel more freedom, I want to feel you know, that I can flow in my business more that I can, you know, be in my zone of genius, more that I can be confident in what I'm sharing and, and really, you know, position myself, as somebody who knows what they're talking about, then when you're doing that, you have to be very, very clear on creating that new thought, that new way of being in your business. So it's, it's really about how you're showing up. So if you're kind of showing up haphazardly, and you're like, you know, I'm not really going to pay a lot of attention to what I'm doing, I'm not going to put my full effort into it, and I'm just going to kind of throw it together, then you're probably going to stay in an old paradigm.

7:19
Because if what is happening right now is not working for you. It's entirely likely you got to shift that. Okay. So the next thing would be, it'd be looking at how are you making decisions from a higher level from this new paradigm. And I was having this fantastic conversation today with one of my peers, Stephanie, her and I talk every week, and we are talking about really allowing ourselves to be the decision makers in our lives, and to allow ourselves to trust more, that we are being led and guided, and that we have the answers that we need, we don't have to look outside of ourselves for confirmation all the time, we truly do know what it is that we need. And that means that we can make these decisions on a higher level, because we're not looking outside of ourselves to say, Oh, is this the right decision? Should I do this? Should I hire somebody? Should I outsource? Should I you know, start a new program? Should I price it this way? All those questions that come up. But when you kind of peel it back a little bit, and you say, You know what, when I'm standing in my power, when I truly am I really stepping into that boss energy, I am making the decisions for myself, and I am trusting my gut instincts. So maybe that would look like you know, really placing yourself in rooms where there are people who are doing the same thing.

8:57
Maybe going to conferences, joining masterminds up leveling your own game, in order to be in the same mindset in the same paradigm as people who are doing the same thing. And if that feels like oh, I don't know, I don't know which one to join or what I need to do. And you're just kind of questioning what that will look like specifically for you, then perhaps one on one coaching is more. What you need right now is to kind of dial in, how can you shift that thought process that paradigm, those mindsets, so that you can truly step into that boss energy that really calls in what you desire. So, when you're doing that, when you're in that boss energy, you're also creating a new paradigm for yourself when it comes to abundance, money, getting paid, having clients, all the things.

9:58
Somebody asked you a question. If you were to be really, really honest with yourself right now, do you believe that you can charge?

10:09
Do you believe that you can charge higher prices right now for your services? Or do you feel like you vacillate between getting a client who will pay for your services, then it's like, two weeks of crickets, nobody's there, nobody's knocking on your door. So you're like, oh, my gosh, I need like a flash sale, I need a slash on my prices. And, you know, hope that someone comes in on like a new offer, right? Like a reduced offer, right? When you're doing that, and trust me when I say this, because I have done this. It really is playing around with your energy with how you feel about yourself or your value. There is nothing wrong with having a sense to offer somebody a lower price on something.

11:06
But to slash a price on something, because you are in scarcity is a whole different ballgame. So stepping into that paradigm, stepping into that new way of being when it comes to abundance money clients in your life, really is about how are you showing up when it comes to your money mindset, to your abundance mindset to believe that you can charge what it is you believe you can charge? Because no matter what anybody says, and tells you to raise your prices, or tells you to do that until you are feeling aligned with it until you can have a full body Yes, around it. It's not going to feel right. So it's all up to you. So what does that look like? Well, it looks like when you're having an abundance mindset that you are fully aligned with everything you are doing. And when you are then you're creating offers, you're putting out prices that feel right. And it's not about whether or not they match industry standards, whether they're higher or lower or comparable. It's about what you feel you want to be charging, and what feels good for you and the transformation that you're providing for someone else. I think oftentimes we get, like really caught up in well, I don't know, you know, should I price it this way? Or should I go higher or lower. But at the end of the day, we're not really taking a look at what is the outcome? What is the result? What is that person walking away with? What is the transformation they are having, that they need you that they want to hire you. And if it, if it really is something that they truly, truly want, then they're willing to spend the money on that. And the third thing is creating a new paradigm for yourself, when it comes to being a leader or an influencer, an expert in your field. And the way you know whether or not you're being seen as the expert or not, is whether or not people are trying to sell to you.

13:21
Or you're selling to others. This was something that I literally, like just recently had this huge like aha moment for myself. I actually talked to one of my coaches, and I said, You know what, I feel like I'm being sold to a lot. And she said, Well, how are you showing up in your business? How are you showing up online? And she said, I never get sold to? And I was like, What do you mean, you never get sold to? She's like, well, I positioned myself as the authority as the leader. And to me that was like, Oh, well, maybe I'm not really like showing up as the authority and the expert, which means people think that I still need something more. And like I've said earlier, we already have everything we need ourselves, we already have all of the answers within ourselves. I mean, there are strategies and there are things that we can learn, obviously, that's why we're hiring people. That's where we're working with people who are experts in their field. But at the end of the day, how you're showing up energetically within your business within your online presence within your communication, your emails, just in how you are is a huge indicator in what you believe to be true about yourself and about your business and how people are going to perceive you and whether or not you're going to be able to move your business forward. Okay, so you want to always be adding value consistently showing

15:00
Up to add value, that doesn't mean you have to be there every single day. I mean, I don't personally believe that that's what you have to do, you might hear people say that all the time,when you feel energetically aligned to do so, then absolutely show up and share exactly who you are. That's why I love having a podcast because oftentimes, like today, I'll record two episodes. And I will get ahead by two weeks. So when it comes to next week, and I'm getting ready to go out of town, and I'm in my cycle, where I'm probably not going to feel like I really want to be like communicating in this way, I will already have recorded, edited, and have a podcast ready. So energetically, I'm not trying to make something happen, that doesn't need to happen during that time of the month for me. So really understanding when I'm showing up and how I'm showing up, but consistently putting out content. Hmm, see how that works. Okay, so you want to add value, position yourself as an expert and authority, and really share more with your audience on your existing platform. You don't have to, you know, reinvent the wheel, you can do what you're doing right now in the space you're in. Or you can invite yourself to be on someone's podcast, asked to be on their podcast, or you can do an IG live to or whatever works for you.

16:36
As long as you are showing up as the expert and the authority, and really, truly believing that you are. So when it comes to really showing up in that CO boss energy, it's about creating a new paradigm around what it is that you believe to be true about yourself and your business. And then once you have that mindset, once you know exactly what it is that you need to do specifically, then it's all about embodying that, and integrating that into your business. And that is exactly why I created the new limitless VIP experience. Now one of the tracks that we have, is really dedicated to stepping into that CEO boss energy. And for so many people that are sitting in this kind of like, I don't know, and for so many entrepreneurs that are waiting for something to manifest in their business waiting for something to happen and are not really sure. What are the steps that they specifically need to take. This is why I created this day, is to give you an up leveled version is to give you an up leveled experience, so that you can step into what it feels like to be a CEO to be in this upgrade in this upper level in your life. So that you can start embodying it. And oftentimes people think, Well, gosh, you know, like, it's quite a hefty investment. And like, is it just really one day? But here's the thing you're not necessarily paying for one day, you're you're really investing in your transformation, you're investing in? How are you going to shift where you are now and step into this new paradigm for yourself? What is that going to look like? How are you going to embody that? What steps are you going to take? How are you going to implement and integrate that into your everyday life and business. And so in the VIP experience, not only do we spend a day to do that, whether it's in person or virtual, but we take the next 30 days. And I help you do that, I help you walk out the process, and hold you accountable to taking the steps that you said you were going to take. Because at the end of the day, we want to see you have a transformation. There is something that you set out to do. There is a God given divine purpose calling on your life. And in order for you to truly step in to that. It requires you to really embody what that means for you so you can help others get the transformation.

19:35
