mindset Archives - Small Business Coach, Women Business Coaching - Client Attraction

Today, I am writing to you from Florida, getting ready for 10 powerful days of client events, breakthroughs and lasting transformations at our 3-day Mindset Retreat experience next week. (It’s not too late to join us for Mindset. People are still registering here. You can too.) 😉

So, I’m totally loving that our trip down memory lane has brought us to this week’s video.

It’s what I live. It’s what I breathe. It’s what I teach my clients and also my 3 children. It’s everything.

This one’s about 6 minutes long. You’ll see how a snarky comment on a post I’d written inspired me to create my most popular video ever… It will teach you exactly how you can achieve any of the things you want. Watch it now:

Your clarity of intention and positive expectation are the fuel for the creation of any dream you have.

It’s simple. Which is why most people are overlooking it, searching instead for something complex.

I know it can be difficult to believe in prosperity and there being enough for everyone, as I told Susie, when we are surrounded by people who have bought into the cultural conditioning of lack and negativity.

It can be difficult to maintain a high vibration and really claim the ideal vision of the future that we see for ourselves, and then bring it into our lives.

It requires vigilance. And hopefully finding others in your life who share the same commitment to achievement and growth.

Ultimately, you have the power to choose in every moment, like I said in the video. Your thoughts. Your focus. Your attention. Your actions.

Choose wisely and you can indeed manifest anything you want.

Here’s to your abundance!

Fabienne

P.S. When you have an intention of what you want, and it is specific and clear, and then you power that intention with positive emotion and action…it will be so. It is law. <3

 

 

 

 

 

If you’re anything like me you’ve had a sense, for most of your life, that you weren’t like most other people. And while this may have been difficult at times, the good news is…

…it’s because you’re wired to be a business owner. And not everybody is!

You’re not meant to stick to the status quo of doing unfulfilling work and being beholden to someone else’s rules of how to play the game of life.

However, this doesn’t necessarily mean that business ownership comes easily to you. In this week’s 5-minute video I want to share why this is… Watch it now:

One of the best ways to increase your business results is to acknowledge the truth about yourself and how you’re wired to take action in your business.

It’s being willing to look at the things you rock at, as well as the things you aren’t especially strong at.

After all these years of coaching growth-minded business owners, I’ve found we fall into these two general categories that I explain in today’s video.

I hope that you are able to see yourself in one of them. Knowing yourself and being honest about the “bigness of your back,” as I mention in the video, is the first step in getting out of your own way and creating an even more successful business, one that is more profitable and bigger, but also gives you more time and freedom than you have now.

Your “wiring” is your ally. It is your gift – once you embrace it, amplify the things that work, and do something about the things that don’t.

It’s what makes you, well, YOU, and what gives you the courage it takes to forge a different path than others are willing to risk (I meant what I said in the video…no soul-sucking existence will do for people like us).

Harness your strengths…your creativity, your resourcefulness and your ideas. And I believe that you will absolutely harness the income, freedom, fulfillment and meaning that drives you.

You’re awesome,
Fabienne

P.S. It really isn’t about the money, is it? I get it. This conversation is about so much more than that. It’s about living life on your own terms, self-actualizing and making a real difference with your life, through your business. It’s so worth it. Oh, and incidentally, that’s when the money comes. (wink wink!)

There is a video I’ve been sitting on for a while, and I wasn’t sure I was EVER going to share it with you…because honestly, it’s not our typical buttoned-up business testimonial type-of-thing. I would have put it on the bloopers reel.

At first, I worried that it wasn’t professional enough to show you. That people wouldn’t take it seriously. And then I reminded myself that I don’t make decisions based on what people think of me (and neither should you). So, here goes

It’ll give you a little taste of the love and laughter we experience in The Client Attraction Business School tribe (separate from all the awesome business stuff we do).

I dare you to watch it now and not laugh (and if you love it, you belong with us):

If you read between Tom and Tulis’ improvisational lines, this moment in time is a very real representation of some of what happens in our meetings, apart from all the ninja business-building exercises, reverse-engineering of business goals, high-level masterminding, accountability structures and all that fun “professional” stuff we do. Read between the lines and you’ll see the deep bonds we form here…

And Tom and Tulis are right. We all need a community.

You CANNOT do it alone, and who would want to anyway, when you can be in the company of others you will end up calling your best friends after just one week?

There’s no question that we are a unique tribe of supportive business owners. If you think we’re your tribe and want to massively grow, AND have fun and make friends at the same time, fill out your application to speak to one of our Strategy Coaches today by clicking here (it’s free).

That way you don’t have to miss out on this type of fun any more. Plus, you learn how to have an amazing business, make more money while gaining your life back and have a community like no other at your back.

I mean, really… What could be better than that? 😉

You can apply to map out your next 12 months at no charge with one of our (also awesome) Strategy Coaches here.

Come have fun with us,
Fabienne

P.S. “Not only do you get business advice, you get centerpieces”??? Yes Tom and Tulis, you have taken the testimonial video to a whole new level. For. Sure.

Do you know what actually turns great ideas into results?

It’s not the ideas themselves. No matter how brilliant, they aren’t going to do one thing for us or our business…

Until we implement them.

So why don’t we always implement what we know we need to do? What’s the culprit most often to blame for our inaction?

Watch this week’s 4-minute video to find out what’s getting in the way (and what to do about it):

Business owners have been telling me for years, “Sure, Fabienne, I’ll implement that idea when I’ve got everything PERFECT!”

Here are my thoughts about that…

I am 16 years into my own business and I still don’t have it perfect. I still change my mind. In fact one of the BIGGEST changes I’ve ever taken on in my business is coming this fall. It’s big and I’m doing it, even if not everything is completely worked out yet.

I know that you may want to have it all figured out before you go for it, whatever “it” is.

The problem is, the product of your quest for perfection is PARALYSIS.

Like our Shero in this week’s video, strap on your cape and do “it.” Do it messily. Do it imperfectly. Do it on shaky legs and with a knot in your tummy. And then learn from your mistakes and make it better.

You’re not going to have it be perfect. Ever. So get over it and just do the thing. Write the book. Make the call. Send the letter. Hire the support. Work with the mentor. Raise your rates.

This is how successful businesses are made.

I hope this week’s video inspires you to take action on something you’ve been procrastinating this week. Pick one thing. And do it. Today.

Okay?

So much love,
Fabienne

P.S. If you’re a rockstar at photoshop (which I’m not) feel free to create a pic of you (or ME!) in that shero cape and email it to me. I think we all need a picture of ourselves in that get up. 😉

P.P.S. By the way, you’re awesome. Just want to make sure you know that you’re doing a great job. Keep going. I’m proud of you. xo

I’m with my Leverage Track students today, teaching this particular group of 50+ six and seven figure business owners how to turn everything in their business into a SYSTEM, so they can gain their life back and dramatically multiply their revenues.

And you know what? I’ve yet to tell them HOW to do it.

The “how to,” I’ve realized, always needs to come AFTER a few mindset shifts, otherwise, things don’t get implemented as quickly.

That said, today’s training video is the first of three on the mindset shifts required for you to take bigger action. It’s something I taught at our Growth Track meeting recently, and I think you would really benefit from it too.  

Because the truth is that I can teach you all the most effective marketing skills in the world, or show you the best way to create systems for doing anything, or the easiest way to create passive income, but if you don’t shift your mindset to embrace this new way of doing this, nothing will happen. Which leads to more of the same.  

So, in this week’s short, 2-minute video, here’s the first of those three mindset shifts that I believe will really be helpful for you. Watch it now:

You see, trust is one of the most valuable assets a business owner can have, and trust comes from being consistent.

Consistency is better than rare moments of greatness.

And at some point, you get to decide to be in it for the long-haul for those you serve…

Which is, btw…

How you play to win.

You in?
Fabienne

P.S. Going it alone is way too hard. We all need some help from our peers who get us. If you don’t have a room full of people to pinky swear with like our students did in today’s training video, find an accountability partner to pinky swear with.

P.P.S. This is the last email I’ll be sending you from the United States for quite some time. Our year-long adventure of living in Paris starts this Saturday. I am pinching myself and at the same time, a bit overwhelmed when I think of what needs to happen between now and our plane taking off on Saturday, to be honest. Send me some good juju! xoxo

I know it’s cushy in your comfort zone…

…but what I know from 16 years of leading boldly with my heart, and reaping all the benefits of this, is that ALL of the magic you seek actually happens outside of what is familiar to you.

(Let that sink in.)

Everything you want, and I mean everything, is right beyond what you consider “comfortable.”

In this week’s short 3-minute video, I share with you my secrets to playing boldly (like moving to Paris with my family next week or writing a book in 6 months) without losing my sanity.

Watch it now (and try not to laugh when I demonstrate my “trick,” in heels no less, OK?):

Whether you have a decision to make about hiring a new team member, investing in yourself or creating a new revenue stream in your business, to have it, you simply have to get a bit uncomfortable.

Successful people make these decisions strategically, intuitively and quickly. They ask the question: “Will this move me toward what I want?”

They don’t keep doing the same exact thing and expecting different results. They create new circumstances.

But this doesn’t need to be scary. It can be as simple as taking one small step in faith…

It’s the quote we all know and love: “A journey of 1000 miles begins with one step.”

IN. FAITH.

Too many people believe that they have to leap, that the way to the results they want is to take a running jump, see if they can skip all the individual steps and make a perfect landing at the top of the staircase.

That, my friend, IS scary!

And totally unnecessary.

As I said in today’s training video, all it takes is ONE step, in the direction of your desire. Just outside of your comfort zone… And then do it again. And do it again.

And before you know it, there you are. Goal accomplished.

Be brave. You already have what it takes,
Fabienne
P.S. How did you like my dramatic acting skills in the video? 😉 If I can do THAT on stage in front of 400+ people, you can definitely get out of your comfort zone too.

 

(In this week’s training video, you’re actually going to see a lot of the “real me” my students appreciate, meaning, I’m not sugar-coating anything. You’ll see me get on my soap box, I’ll gently swear, you’ll see my spiritual side and even witness my eyes well up in tears, all while I take a stand for you to stay out of fear as you build your business.)  

OK, here goes. You’ve heard me say it before and I’ll say it again:

Successful entrepreneurs do the things that others are simply not willing to do. And sometimes this means we do the thing that we might perceive means that we are “failing.”  

Watch this week’s 5-minute video to hear what I did when I first started my business, my own story of doing it and why you shouldn’t feel ANY shame around this topic: 

Fear is the killer of dreams. It is THE lowest vibration on the emotional spectrum, and it is beyond challenging to take the actions that we need to take to succeed when we are afraid about our ability to pay the bills, like I was.  

And so, if you are experiencing fear around your business, your first step is to do whatever it takes to raise yourself out of fear. It is vital to your success.

I’ve been there. And the reason that I am HERE today is because I assessed my resources, asked for help and made some cash-on-the-side.

I consider this week’s video required viewing for anyone who’s within the first couple years of their business or experiencing a little “dip” in revenues. I hope it inspires you to focus on the actions that move you toward your destination. And for 99% of us, that means focusing on where we can generate CASH.  

You can do it too! I believe in you, 
Fabienne 
 
P.S. Do you make a wish on 11:11 too? I’m always so happy when I catch it on the clock or my phone. Go ahead and make a wish when you watch the video, as if it is that time on your clock too. (Maybe you can wish for some cash-on-the-side, just for the short term.) 😉

(A loving warning… I’m going to be a little bold today.) 😉 

OK, here goes: 

You may think you want things to change. But the question I have for you today is… 

do you really? 

Do you have the audacity to be one of the few who actually becomes the person who achieves the goal or vision of your future self? 

Change sounds great… 

But in reality, change feels Un.Comfort.Able. And we are programmed to avoid it at all costs. 

In this week’s video, I get super real with you about the ego, fear and what it looks like when your old reality meets your new paradigm. It’s not often pretty, but it’s crucial you know this. Watch it now: 

 

When presented with an opportunity to experience change in our lives, our minds automatically go to the things we perceive we have to give up. We focus on the: 

Costs over rewards 

Losses versus gains 

Excuses versus possibilities 

And therefore, most people don’t experience change, even when they really, really want it. 

“The more important the goal or vision is for your soul’s evolution, the more resistance you will encounter as you pursue it.” 

And yes, damn. It sucks. I know, all too well. 

I would rather you know this now, so you can use this to your advantage going forward. 

Here’s the good news, though: 

You can outwit your ego, by understanding that the resistance you are facing as you move toward the things that you want is a sign that you are on the right path. 

Your ego is the most powerful opponent you will face in the pursuit of your business growth and personal evolution. Your ego would much rather you stick with the reality that you know (and don’t really want anymore) versus the future you want (but don’t know yet.) 

And the biggest tool that the ego deploys to achieve its goal is fear. And the fear SEEMS real and scary. 

This message to you today is a message from the other side of navigating my way again and again and again through the fear and false panic point I talk about in today’s training video. 

If you want to achieve your potential, surpass your goals and leave your mark on this world, you simply must learn to do what it takes to be afraid and do it anyway. 

There is gold on the other side for us bold hearts who are willing to bravely go through it, instead of looking for the “easy” and “painless” way. 

Rewards beyond our wildest imaginings await. 

I believe in you. More than you know, 
Fabienne 

P.S. It’s my intention that this message inspires you to be bolder and braver. Remember it’s a “false” panic line. Once you get through it, you realize there wasn’t ever anything to be afraid of. <3

You know the movie with Bill Murray? The one where the guy wakes up to the same day over and over again?

There’s actually a powerful process there for you to apply to your business.

One of the things that stops many business owners from growing their business is Self-doubt

“What if I fail?”

“What if this is another thing that I don’t follow through to completion?”

“What if I’m not good enough?”

“What if I let others down, again?”

These are more common than you probably think.

Yes, you may have made mistakes in the past, we all do. (God knows I have!) But what if you permanently learned from your past experiences so you didn’t ever repeat them again, instead of letting any of these self-doubting thoughts stop you from taking big bold steps toward your future growth?

That’s the Groundhog Day process I’m teaching in this week’s training. It’s really, really powerful. Watch it now:

I use this process with my Team all of the time, every day. All of our clients at The Client Attraction Business School use it. (They say to each other, “Just GHD it.”) I use it with my kids, and it’s also a process my husband and I use at home.

If you woke up every day and had the opportunity to have a “do over,” what would you do differently?

You would do more of what worked and less of what didn’t, right? That’s what this process allows you to do. So when something doesn’t work, instead of succumbing to self-doubt…

Ask these questions instead:

What worked? Claim your success!

What didn’t work? Take responsibility and own the situation. Be willing to go deep.

What would you do differently? This is where the learning happens that you can apply going forward.

What non-negotiable systems, standards and procedures will you now put in place?  

You see, mistakes aren’t the problem. Failures aren’t the problem. Past experience is not the problem. The problem is repeating the same pattern over and over and expecting different results.

Be willing to do what others are not willing to do, and follow this process that allows you to learn and grow from your experiences. Your results will soar because of this Groundhog Day process, just like hundreds of our clients experience.

How do you think you could use this GHD process going forward? Let me know in the comments!

Big hugs,
Fabienne

P.S. Let this be something you DO and not something you KNOW. Implementation of this process is the pathway to your exponential growth. I’m here cheering you on!

A question I get asked A LOT is… “You seem to coach a lot of coaches. I run a _______ business. Is The Client Attraction business school for me?”

The answer is “Yes!” We mentor just about every type of business owner under the sun. Even ones that don’t usually seek out coaching.

This week I’d love to introduce you to my friend Joe Biba. Joe has a construction company in Wisconsin
In fact, the day before I met Joe, he’d spent 12 hours on a roof.

Because Joe WAS the company…he bid the jobs, did the jobs and billed the jobs.


Until…he met us.  

Just wait ’til you hear what changed, in less than 5 months.

Today’s shot-in-the-arm inspirational video may just be what you need to watch today (you must watch until the end to hear the part that makes me tear up every time I watch this video): 

 

Wow. Right?!?

Not only was Joe able to retire his tool belt in less than 5 months by learning to leverage his business and clone himself, he was able to increase his revenue by 30% that first year (which is significant for a construction company).

He discovered a passion inside of himself, that he knew was there, but couldn’t activate without the support of our supportive trust-based community.

And it all happened once he decided to take the leap of faith and join us in CABS.

I hear it all the time. “The other students at CABS see more for me than I could ever see for myself.”

As Joe so perfectly shared, it is “life changing and transformational to have people who have my back.”

Joe is now happily in his 3rd year in the CABS Leverage Track. He says he wouldn’t ever dream of leaving. His income and freedom have escalated dramatically since joining us, and he says that this is the best thing he’s ever done for the growth of his business, and even for his personal life.

Being here with us has paid for itself in spades for Joe.

It will be one of the best investments you ever make too. And it’s why I hope you stay for years to come…

Because this tribe keeps you accountable and on track, because there’s no BS allowed here.

I’ve found that creating success in isolation is nearly impossible. (Perhaps you know all too well what I mean.)

All of us have a propensity to fall down a rabbit hole and get off track.

But when you come to our meetings and plug in to this community (most of our business owners plug in daily!) you have a mechanism in place to keep you moving toward your goals.

You have the support to keep YOU going where you want to go.

Come on, fill out your short application to speak to one of our coaches today. Let’s map out your next 12 months together, at no charge.

And if you, like Joe, decide to take the leap of faith and join us, you too will scale your business and get your life back.

Here’s to you getting off the roof and retiring your own tool belt, whatever that means for you.

To your success…
Fabienne

P.S. The proven process we have for you here will show you, step-by-step, how to get from where you are to where you want to go – whether you are just starting out and have a few clients or are maxed out like Joe was… Your only job is to say YES to your bigger future by clicking here and then leaning in…to the training, the awesome accountability and the loving support that we have waiting for you.

Let’s do this! xo
