You can make this stuff up

Published 12 days agoย โ€ขย 2 min read

I was driving the 4 hours home from my Dad's this weekend, listening to one of my favorite books - "Excuse Me - Your Life is Waiting" - and I happen to catch 11:11 on the clock. So of course, I started putting my 'wants' out there, loud and bold and on repeat - you know, just in case the Universe couldn't hear me. ๐Ÿคฃ

"I want to bust through any unconscious limitations around money, this work, and anything else that's blocking me. I want my work to reach the people who are ready for it. I want $10,000+ coming in per month consisently. I want financial FREEDOM...etc, etc." - until the clock clicked to 11:12.

When I glanced back up, this truck was in front of me like it came out of nowhere. I literally hadn't seen it, but there it was with its big, bold message right in my face:

"$2500+ WEEKLY - AFTER ALL EXPENSES"

I burst out laughing and fumbled for my phone to get a pic because you just can't make this stuff up. It was exactly what I said I wanted! That "plus" felt like a wink from the Universe that it's not only listening - it's got me.

This wasn't about the money - it was about the reminder:

I'm not doing this alone. Whatever I need shows up - it always has! The new idea, the perfect solution, the right person to help or guide me, the epiphany that breaks through something I can't see. This time that AHA moment was this:

I don't need more money to feel free - I need freedom from the belief that money creates my freedom! BAM! ๐Ÿ’ฅ

The truth is, I already live my life the way I want, regardless of what's in my bank account. That freedom is why I've always worked for myself. What trips me up is the belief that I have to figure it all out alone, do it all perfectly, or reach some arbitrary level before I'm allowed to call it successful.

Ahem - 30+ years tells a different story. ๐Ÿ˜‰

We all have limiting beliefs rolling around in the background, but that's all they are - beliefs. And they can come flooding to the surface at the most random times, triggered by the most random things. They show up as self-doubt, fear, unworthiness, anxiety, fill in the blank.

Whether they're about money, relationships, love, or our own value and worth - they aren't true, were never true, and only limit us because we habitually listen to them. The key is to root them out so we can see them for what they are instead of who we are.

That's true freedom, my friend.

I'm here for it.

With love, ๐Ÿ’— Kate

Reader, you know how you can hear or read something that was there all along, but it finally clicks in? I love that! It's music to my ears when someone says "Oh wow, I've never thought of it like that". We can get so used to looking at something we don't even see if for what it is. Sometimes just a tiny tilt of our head can change the way we see it - that can change the way we think about it - that can change the way we feel about it - that can change our damn life! ๐Ÿ’ฅ I still remember the day...

Warning Reader - this one's a little raw. I was just with a client who had the rug pulled out from under her in a relationship recently, and she kept apologizing and saying she felt stupid for feeling so sad - that she should be able to shake it off - that other people have it so much worse. It broke my heart to hear her shame herself for how she felt, like it was an inconvenience. It was not. But that's what she was conditioned her whole life to believe - that she was "too sensitive" and she...

Reader, I gotta share what happened since that shift I had on Monday... I finally landed on my YES! ๐Ÿคธ Backstory: I (unknowingly) lived with betrayal trauma for 5+ years โ†’ I finally divorced and recovered โ†’ 2 years later my anxiety and panic were off the charts โ†’ I found parts of me I didn't even know I'd lost in the trauma โ†’ I healed THOSE parts and finally came all the way back to who I AM โ†’ I created a process that gets to those parts FIRST, so you don't get stuck in the aftermath of...
