I'm your host, Jesse Romero. Let's get started.
Hey, welcome to ADHD owned and ADHD entrepreneurs podcast. I'm your host, Jesse Romero, and we're going to be talking about losing your [00:01:00] sparkle for your business and how to get that back. Okay. This happens to so many of us and it's a normal thing. So let's normalize it happening, but let's talk about why that happens, what you can do to help yourself and also how to avoid that from happening to you so many times.
Look, and the truth is that so many times when we lose our sparkle and our passion for a business, there's a huge connection to your sales being sometimes a driving factor of that.
Not all the times, some people get burned down and lose their sparkle in the highest of their highs during their sales, but for a lot of us, it's the lack of momentum, the lack of engagement, and attention to what we're putting out that's so valuable, that's really hard to deal with. And that imposter voice just gets so loud in our head that we psych ourselves out and we lose our confidence.
So I'm gonna also share with you some of my hacks and easy things that you can implement into your sales systems. That doesn't even feel like you're being super sales and strategic, but more so just an easy casual thing that you're doing in your day [00:02:00] to day as you're running your business that can help you really boost your sales.
It's not that hard, ladies, like I feel like we overcomplicate sales because it is a complex thing. But so many of my clients were doing way too much sometimes, and they were exhausting themselves, keeping up with all of these methods. And sometimes it was giving them results, but sometimes it wasn't even bringing them results and they were just exhausted.
So we have to find the easy, low energy ways of our marketing. And honestly, that's another podcast episode, the high energy versus Low Energy. I talk a lot about this, but I'm gonna share with you some of my biggest hacks to make sure that we are still supplying as we're building. As we're launching things, as we're even in the middle , of meeting the needs of the people that have already paid us,
it's supplying our sales system with progress and making sure that we're creating action so that we can see the results and the fruits and we can connect to the people that desperately need the work that we do. And that can be provided, that transformation that we know we can get them with our work.
So make sure you do whatever you [00:03:00] need to do. Download the episode if you have to come back to it.
But you're gonna wanna listen to some of these things that I propose here because it may just change your whole approach to sales or the way you're viewing things, and that can ultimately change your whole business, I promise you
so something that I've noticed in my own entrepreneurial journey is that when things didn't go my way or when I didn't get the reaction that I was hoping for, especially when it comes to like launching things that really dimmed my confidence and it made me doubt a lot of things. It made me doubt my own abilities.
It made me doubt my businesses approach, the product that I was launching. , it made me feel like Something wasn't aligned, something wasn't right. And that's why there was friction happening. And when you are in creation mode, when you are creating, say a new course, a new product, a new offer, that is like the exciting part, the creation of a putting out something new, like [00:04:00] It can be a little stressful, but it's exciting.
Like it's something new and we're working towards it. Right. And the mistake that I see so many ADHD entrepreneurs do is that they'll focus so much on the creation of the thing that they rarely focus on the actual marketing of the thing until it's like done and ready. And now you have to go ahead and market it to get people in.
And that is a wrong approach in so many, so many different ways, but that is really shooting yourself in the foot because what you need is to, as you are creating, you need to already be marketing and talking about it and trying to get interested people in it so that when you're ready to launch, they're ready to buy.
There's not this like huge follow up. It's more automatic because people have been expecting for this to come out. But if the first time that someone's hearing about it is once it's ready to launch, but you've been creating this for the last four or five months, you [00:05:00] lost four to five months to be leading up to it and, giving shout outs to this thing and getting people excited and ready to buy.
Right. And this is the problem that happens to so many ADHD entrepreneurs is that we will focus so much on the creation and get, make it really nice. We'll focus so much on the aesthetics, making sure it's super helpful for people. And then we don't focus on the marketing until it's time to do the marketing at the end.
And then it's like, you're now having to climb up the hill when you could have been climbing up the hill the whole time and then have gotten to the top and boom, it's ready. Right. So something that I. Always advise is to do the sneak peek marketing has what I like to call sneak peek marketing. And as you are creating, it can practically look like you taking a picture of you on your computer in the creation mode of this course program, whatever it is that you're putting out, that's not [00:06:00] ready yet, but you're barely working on it is showing that it's just, and the caption can be like, So excited to put this out soon, you know, or talking about how this is going to be super helpful.
Who is it going to be super helpful for, right? All of these things while you are in creation mode needs to be happening on your socials, on everywhere else. And that is sneak peek marketing. That is letting in your viewer to see what you are working on and to be curious about it. Then it's when you are going to pick the name is having, you can even have like a poll saying, okay, what name would you pick?
Which one would attract you more? If your program was about this and have people join in on that decision making of the name for this thing, right? Now, of course you have the final decision and you get to choose whatever it is, but it gives you some insights and it's a small way of letting your audience in on that and also drums up curiosity.
And when it does come out, they feel like they were a [00:07:00] part of it. It feels a little bit more, they feel a bit more connected to that thing because they remember helping you pick the name or they realize you went with a different, whatever it is, right? So even little things like that can be so needle moving when you are ready to launch that thing, right? It's not the first time someone has heard about it. That's what I really want to drive in is that you need to prepare people for your launch way before. And if you're working on this weeks, months before you have the upper hand, because you can be talking about it weeks, months before.
And once it's ready, it's ready. And people are already prepped and primed, right? But the people that don't do this and they wait until it's okay. Now I have to work on marketing. I have no other option. The fun, creative part of it is done. Now I have to move to marketing. And because we naturally don't totally love marketing and would much rather not have to do it.
And people just come to [00:08:00] us. Then it's not going to be great marketing. It's not going to be super strategic. And so I remember with one of the coaches that I worked on, I was like barely giving her an idea of like this new program or something that I wanted to craft. And her first question was awesome.
How are we going to market this? And I was like, Whoa, Whoa, Whoa, Nelly, calm down. Like, what do you mean? And how are we going to market this? Like, I'm, this is just an idea. I mean, the marketing comes later. No. , and as much as I, I always focus on the marketing towards the early stages, I take my own advice on this, but like her literal first question was, how are we going to market it?
And I was like, wait, I don't even know what we're naming this thing or what it's going to be about or all the things that's going to include. , but I, I needed that. I love that reminder of like, okay, cool. But now you can start thinking about your marketing even now in the concept phase of this thing.
Okay. And I think that that's something that people are not really hardwired to do. And so then what happens is that since you [00:09:00] didn't prep your marketing much before, you didn't prime your audience. So this is the first you're hearing of it. You made a few posts talking about it and no one really seemed interested.
All your other posts got more engagement than these. And now you're like, well, dang, does nobody want this thing? Like what's happening? Did I get, did I miss a mark on something? And then that passionate, that excitement that you've had to release this thing starts to dwindle.
And you find yourself dragging your feet to promote this thing even more. The less engagement you get on it every time you post, the more you want to stop posting about it and just say, all right, I'll just chalk it up to a lesson and I'll just work on something else. Or get a nine to five. So this is very tricky to manage.
, and , I have had failed launches before. , and that was very new for me because I was used to selling out my launches. And when I had this failed launch, I was like, whoa, what is happening? And I realize now, and I [00:10:00] actually have an episode, earlier kind of detailing and talking about this. So if you want to go and listen back, But I did learn so many lessons from it.
And there was so much, misalignment with my product and me and where I was at. And there was also this like desperate energy of like, I needed the money because I was going to be closing on a house and this was going to like make that possible. And there were a few other things. But also I did not prime my people enough and my messaging wasn't speaking to the ideal client of these people, which were people that were making consistent money a month, like five K or more a month.
So it was a different kind of bracket of finances. That would make people eligible for this. And so I just wasn't speaking to those , higher income level people, so yeah, I learned a lot of those things,
Your own confidence
---
but something that you have to realize is that your confidence in your business, in your abilities to help people and serve them, it comes from [00:11:00] you.
Your confidence can not be dependent on the affirmation of the people outside of you. Okay. Your business can not rely on outside affirmation. It has to rely on your own confidence on what you believe is true on what you know is true. Not because people said, Oh my gosh, that spoke so much to me while that was so good.
Oh, this person is the best coach for this. You can not rely on outside affirmation. And that's really freaking hard for us because most of us grew up with a childhood where we were not. consistently affirmed as kids and we had to question ourselves a lot and we were more reprimanded than affirmed and encouraged.
And so that builds like a whole mess of things in your adulthood, in your entrepreneurship. And it's just a slippery slope to rely on outside [00:12:00] affirmation. It can be dopamine inducing, you know, like it's chasing the dopamine, chasing the serotonin of when people give you compliments or whatever it is.
And I'm not saying that that's bad. Like, it's a nice thing to have. And everybody wants to have it. But it's the dependent on it. And as soon as you stop seeing those things coming through. Then you start to question yourself. That is not okay. The confidence comes from within, not from the outside.
The outside should only be affirming what's already within. And if it's not affirming what's already within, you don't go, Oh, well then I'm wrong. And then you stop to trust yourself. Cause really what what's happening here is that we don't have a trust. In ourselves. We have a huge lack of self trust. We don't trust ourselves when we think something is good enough, when we like something, because it's happened to us many times in our life where we thought something was great.
And then people were like, well, this is not helpful. And then you're like, whoa, I was wrong, but I was so [00:13:00] certain. Right. And those little moments in your life start to chip out your own trust in yourself and losing your self trust. is like, okay, if I could create a like ideal and a perfect world entrepreneur, having self trust is one of the top things I would make sure that that entrepreneur had, right?
If I was creating like a robot entrepreneur that I could create myself, self trust is one of the things that I would make sure that the entrepreneur has, because without that thing, Everything will go wrong and they will become so manipulated and sensitive to the environment sensitive to other people's words that will cause so many blockings and so much sabotage and so much hindrance and procrastination and all of it.
Because we have to trust ourselves, we cannot wait until someone else affirms something to then trust it. It has to come from within. So when you aren't getting all of that [00:14:00] engagement on the social media, of the posts when you're launching this thing, and you're not getting all the engagement that you wanted, that you expected, or that maybe some of your other posts got, you don't go then, Oh, this must mean that it's not great.
This must mean that people don't like me. This must mean that, it's too expensive and I have to change the price before you do any of that. You have to understand. That the way people engage with like sales posts is a little different than how they would engage with like a meme post, for example.
And this is so true. And so many people could tell you this, but some of my sales posts that I've made where I'm very like out front selling something. We'll get less engagement, but you know what it does get? It gets more private DMS or it actually gets me sales. Even though all my other posted so much better, so many more comments, so many more likes and shares this one didn't, but this is the one that actually made the money.
This is the one that actually got people that joined. And when I asked them how they found me, they're like, Oh, I found you from that one post. [00:15:00] I'm like, you didn't even like the post. Actually, you didn't even comment and like the post, but here you are, you bought. And that's just how people move on social media.
It's weird, but that's just how it happens for a lot of people. So just because you see that there was just seven likes on that post doesn't mean that that person isn't making the money and isn't making the sales. I have so many people that would. Private DMV won't like, won't save, won't comment or interact with that.
But they'll DM me to ask me for the link, so you cannot trust the engagement, the outward appearance of the engagement to be the proof that this is good and that people do want this. So you have to remember to not rely on those. things. Now, can they be information and data? They can. It could mean that maybe it just wasn't a great sales post.
Maybe you could have done a little bit better on that. Maybe it wasn't really speaking clearly to, to the ideal people, right? Maybe it was confusing and a confused buyer never buys, right? I'm sure there are different variables. But the [00:16:00] point that I'm trying to make is that your inner confidence of that thing cannot be shaken when the outward engagement, outward attention is not matching it.
They don't need to match. What you need to do is stay strong in your excitement and passion and understanding and belief in that thing that you are putting out. And that's all because as soon as you can crumble that, as soon as that starts getting tapped in and you start to doubt, you start to overthink and be like, Oh my gosh, maybe I priced it too high.
Maybe there's too many modules. Sure. People aren't buying courses anymore. Maybe I needed to make this a, just a one on one thing. It's doing too much and you have to trust yourself. Now, if you never did any market research, you just went by ear and you're just like, I don't know, I'm just going to create this.
And no one ever told you that they needed that, or that that would be helpful or whatever it is. And okay, maybe you have to look at making better decisions and doing some market research before you put something out and [00:17:00] invest so much time into something. Right. But most of the time, We, we kind of do a little bit of our homework there.
, so sales can come in slowly. They don't just all come in quick. And what I have learned is that most time people wait until the last minute or until the price is increasing to actually buy. So up until the last second, do you not have to make any decisions? But when it comes to something that you have already created, a course of program, something that you spend time creating that you it's ready, it's ready for people to come in and for you to serve them.
Do not give up on it just because it did not get any bites. You keep marketing that baby. Okay. You don't stop. You keep going. And that is the difference between an entrepreneur that gives up too easily. That needs the outside affirmation and someone that is secure in themselves and secure in their, in their belief to help people through this thing, right?
That is the difference is that you keep going. Even when it's [00:18:00] not looking like you're going to get any bites, you keep going. You don't give up just because two, four or five people showed up to your free masterclass doesn't mean that it's not good enough and that you should just give up and. Freaking go work out at Walmart or something like don't give up so quick friends.
We are resistant. So be effing resistance and don't give up on the thing that you spend so much time creating. You have to think more strategic. You have to think more on your marketing. You have to have a good marketing plan in order to put something out. And this is the biggest issue that I see that happened to so many ADHD entrepreneurs.
And I see this come through my Facebook group where people are like, Oh, I did this live workshop free. And like only one, two people showed up or nobody showed up. And it is the most depressing thing that can happen to an entrepreneur is when not that many people show up and you're like, wow,
you feel like a loser. It sucks so bad, but you have to make sure that [00:19:00] you don't allow that to drive in more lack of self trust in yourself, that it doesn't cause more doubt in your abilities. Honestly, it was maybe just a time zone thing. Maybe you didn't pick a good time. Maybe you didn't market it, which is most likely what happened.
Making one or two posts is not enough, babe. We have to put out way more posts than that. Okay. Like so many people were like, yeah, I put out two posts, but like, I haven't heard anything yet. No one has bought my baby. You only put out two posts. What are you talking about? It has to be more than that. And you haven't been speaking about it for all these months that you were creating it.
You just introduced the concept, like it's not going to happen that quick. Right. Also if you're on different platforms, like make sure you're posting on all your platforms. This last month that I was, , promoting the March social media accountability group. I posted, I made one to two posts on my Facebook group, and then I made like maybe two to three posts on my Instagram.
, I was not trying to like heavy market this because I [00:20:00] didn't want a huge group of people. I wanted a smaller group of people to buy. Also was a kind of a last minute thing that I decided to set up. And I can talk more about that later. But my Facebook group is what ended up bringing in the most people that joined.
I think I had maybe like a handful of people that joined from Instagram, but the rest of them joined from my direct Facebook group. And most of them were people that I had never engaged with before. They knew nothing about me before this. So that was fun. So you've got to look at which platform is doing better.
And Knowing that I was able to show and have data that like my Facebook group still is doing great for me. It still sells for me. And in my next previous launches and marketing attempts, I need to use that more. I think I was utilizing Instagram more. And actually this is based off of previous years when I had, you know, my bigger Instagram following Instagram is what would sell out my stuff.
My Facebook group did barely [00:21:00] nothing because I wasn't using it. , I didn't have to use my Facebook group cause my Instagram was doing so well and would sell out my things. So yeah, so you have to look at also some of the data that's showing up and don't be afraid to ask people to DM them
to directly invite people to join your thing.
Private exlusive invite strategy
---
I love when coaches have done this and like if I had talked to them before and we had been talking about this and then like weeks later they have something that they think would be good. Just checking in with me and being like, Hey, like I'm putting out this thing.
And I know we talked about this before I was thinking it'd be a good fit for you. Now I'm different because I don't have all of the like icky salesman triggers cause I've worked on in them so much. And I'm not, I'm not easily triggered by people selling to me. I don't get offended by it anymore. So I don't get offended by this and I actually think it's really nice of them to think of me even if it's just like, even if they're saying that to so many different people, I don't care.
I believe the best in people. But I have actually [00:22:00] bought from coaches that have done that. I remember there was this one coach that I was looking at her program because I thought it would be great for me. And the price was going to go up and she sent me like a message because we had been going back and forth on it and she sent me a message saying, Hey, just wanted to give you a little reminder that.
, the price is going to go up tomorrow and I didn't want you to miss that. And I appreciated that so much because also ADHD, we need all the reminders. , but I, I appreciated that she reached out personally and I signed up. I was like, dude, thank you so much. And it was great. It helped me. And something she said was like, yeah, I always feel Like I let God nudge me on the people that I need to like follow back up on and like you were one of the people that I felt God wanted me to, you know, kind of nudge back and I was like, Well, you were you were hearing from the Lord because I did.
And that program was super helpful for me and I did learn a lot from it. So don't be afraid to slide into people's DMS and be like, Hey, I know you [00:23:00] mentioned that you really wanted to work on this later down the road, like I'm launching this and I think you'd be a good, a good person for it and send those DMS.
If people have engaged with your posts, your sales posts about it, keep those people in your rotation to check back in on. If they haven't bought yet, go, Hey, I noticed that you were liking my post or you commented on it. Let me know if you have any questions, if this would be a good fit for you.
Easy. Those little messages could convert for you and they take you no time and you need to get over your BS fears of having to DM people like that. We're in business. This is what you do. You reach out to people. Are you selling snake oil? No, ma'am. No, you're not. You're selling something that can give them a transformation that can give them a result.
And you are badass at it and you are qualified enough to do it. So. You're just offering a lending hand, right? So just get over all the excuses in your mind that, no, I don't want to be icky or what if they say no, what if they say no, they say no, that is [00:24:00] it. You move on to the next one. You move on to the people that are bought in that want it.
So another technique also is. Reaching out to the people. If you do this right, and you have been priming people and doing the sneak peek, strategy, then you want to go ahead and start messaging people about your offer and start getting spots in, in the backend before you've even launched this thing.
Like I would say one to two to three weeks before you officially launch it. You go into the DMs and you start talking to people about it saying, I think this would be a good fit for you. I'm only giving this like super secret offer to people. You discount it. You can discount it to 300, 20, 30, 40%, whatever feels right for you.
Whatever makes sense. But you give them a discount for buying before it comes out. And how awesome would it be to say, okay, just launched four spots have already been taken. And you're like, what? You just launched in four [00:25:00] spots or have already been taken. Yeah. Cause they were working behind the scenes, baby.
Okay. That's how you do it. And people want to feel it. It's an exclusive. Discount an exclusive invitation that you are doing. I've had some coaches use this on me and I honestly really liked it. I appreciated it and they weren't like random coaches. I had never talked to. They were coaches that I was speaking to that.
I felt like we were friends. And yeah, I appreciated it. So. That is definitely one. It's like the VIP pre launch, strategy, and that ensures that you already have some spots in, and it's just social proof to be able to say like, so and so many spots are already taken. So and so has already gotten it, whatever it is, right?
Sales is your Lifeline
---
So that's another strategy, but you have to realize that sales is your lifeline. Okay. You don't get to help people and use your, your genius, use your skills, use your knowledge to help [00:26:00] people. Unless your sales is doing a good job of connecting you with the people that need your help. . And your sales is a bridge.
There's you at one side of the bridge and you're, there's your ideal client at the other side of the bridge. And the actual bridge is your marketing and sales. And marketing and sales is just connecting you to the people that need you. That's all it freaking does. Okay. Stop complicating it and stop being so afraid of it.
So when you do not pour into your sales, when you do not do anything, when you're not strategizing, when you are not putting any effort into your marketing, into your sales, then you are basically saying, I don't really want to help people. I don't care for people to get in transformation. I don't care to help people.
That's what that. That's what that's saying to me. And it's not what you would actually say. It doesn't feel true, but it's saying my fear is bigger than my desire to help. And boy, you could clock me because my fear is not bigger than [00:27:00] my desire to help. It has been previously in my business. I have let in fear and rejection.
And burnout and all of the things to stop me from serving people that I know I can serve. It stopped me from my mission. And I just refuse to go back there. I refuse to let that be my reality and my norm. It won't, it won't anymore because I've learned my lessons and I've learned how to jump back from that.
So you not making sales and doing marketing is stopping you from giving people the transformation that they can have with your help. And that's real selfish of you. I don't know if that's how you need to hear it, but that's kind of selfish of you to put your own fears and rejection in the first place over serving other people.
Who does that serve? Who does that help? If you put your own fears, well, in your mind, it helps protect you from it, right? But what do you need protection from? We're big girls. We can handle it, right? Give yourself the space and capacity to [00:28:00] mess up, to make mistakes. And you have to affirm yourself. But so many people quit their jobs, shut down their businesses, literally get burned out and go back to a nine to five because their marketing and sales were not doing the heavy lifting for them.
So they lost their passion. They lost their glimmer. And that is so sad. And it happens to so many of us ADHD entrepreneurs. It really does. And what I have seen is that it's always when I ask them, well, what happened? It's like, well, no one was buying anymore. You know, it's always that like lack of affirmation of, of the sales coming through and letting that creep in the self doubt creep in the lack of self trust creep in that.
I'm not good enough. I'm not expert enough. I should just go back to something easier. I'm burned out. I put too much pressure on myself. So now I'm burning up, you know, all of those things, right. And this happens to so many more people, more people than you could ever imagine. And when I talk about this, I [00:29:00] always see the light bulbs go off on people's head when they're like, wow, I never realized that it is my lifeline because it is our mission to serve people like we're here on this earth to serve others.
Like when you are selfish and you only serve yourself, like, shoot, you could spot those people. You could spot the people that are arrogant and only care about themselves. Like. What a sad life to live, right? But ADHDers are so empathetic. We have such a big heart and such a big desire to help other people that we want to be out there helping people.
And that is what fuels our purpose. We feel like we're living in our purpose when we do that. But how can you live in your purpose and change people's lives? If nobody knows what you do, nobody knows about your offers. Nobody is buying from you because they don't know about it, right? You're not changing any people's lives that way.
The free Method to get the ball rolling
---
And something that I have shared with my clients is that when you are trying to build this backup, bring back the passion and sparkle for your business again. If [00:30:00] putting out an offer or putting out something with a price tag still feels a little out of your capacity, that's totally okay.
Start with free stuff. Sometimes just doing things for free helps bring back that passion. Why? Because it keeps you in your purpose of serving people with your geniuses, with your knowledge, right? So put out a free offer, offer to help people for free, like two or three people, whatever it is, put a limit on it.
and help them for free. And you will see that even just doing that will help bring back the sparkle because you need to stay in your purpose. And that can help you then launch into putting out something paid. Right. So that is something that I really have seen makes a huge difference putting out these like super short, like this last offer that I just put out was like a super cheap, like 18 offer that I then.
Brought that price up to like 30 something. And by the way, I had like six or seven people buy once the price went up. So people don't stop buying once the price goes up. [00:31:00] If you thought that people will still buy. And next time they're going to be quicker to buy when I say the price is low and it's going up.
So yeah, you have to make sure that you find something that's within your capacity. Don't just like push yourself to something that's way out of your comfort zone for the moment. And it's just going to lead you into deeper hiding and deeper going into your shell. That's not what you want to do. You want to find something that seems like , you're going to have to make the first leap, but it's a leap that you'll be able to land on your feet on.
Right. So find ways that you can serve people, even if that's market research calls, even if it's free discovery calls where you give value, even if it's a free live where a free coaching call, whatever the heck it is, babe, you have to find ways to stay in your purpose. That's how you get your glimmer back.
That's how you get your passion and your enjoyment for your business again. Is through helping people. Really, we would want this to be through your marketing through yourselves through the things that you already [00:32:00] have to offer. But if none of that applies and start with the free stuff that will help you get your ball rolling.
Okay, it makes all the difference. Trust me. And in the next steps. As you go through your business, selling things and closing things and all of the stuff, you need to make sure that you are focusing on your marketing and sales and seeing it from the standpoint of this keeps my lifeline to my business.
This keeps me aligned to my mission and purpose. It's not a way that I'm scheming people or that I'm taking away from people. Nope. It's the way that you are adding onto people's life and allowing for transformations to be unlocked for people. That's what sales and marketing does. Those are the belief systems that we have to rewire dualist switcheroo knee in your brain, because that's what's going to help you propel your business forward.
You're not selling snake oil. So stop trying to feel like you're this scheming salesman. You're not, you wouldn't scheme someone just for the money, right? No, you wouldn't. So stop treating yourself as if that's what you are. And if [00:33:00] someone makes that assumption about you, Okay. So what people have made weird ass assumptions about me before.
And I could care less because that's not, that's so far from the truth, right? I am secure in myself. I'm secure in the skills and the genius and the knowledge that I have and the ability to help people because I've seen those results come in. I've seen people completely change their life around and their business around because we work together and they were go getters and we went all in.
And I know what that looks like. And that is an addicting feeling. It feels so good to be in my mission and in my purpose. And I just want to help more and more people do that. That's what fuels my sales and marketing. That's what fuels me from putting out sales posts and adding CTAs. That's what fuels me.
It's not the desire for more money. Oh, I could care less about that. It's a desire to help people. And I know that if you're listening to me, you're the exact same way. So. Stop putting yourself in the backseat, start taking up space in your industry, start showing up as an expert that you [00:34:00] are and start talking to people about your offer.
Okay. You can always come back from it and stop being afraid of people watching you and making a fool out of yourselves. Ooh, I'm going to have to make another episode on that because that is a big one is the fear of embarrassment, the fear of people watching you and your launch going terribly. And then people like talking behind your back.
None of that actually happens, but that's what our fear tells us. So I'm going to have to make another episode on that baby because that is a big one. But I hope this episode served you. I hope it ignited some things in you and it's going to make all the difference for you. Let me know what you got out of it.
I'll see you at my next episode.

And also it's gonna help your [00:35:00] brain soak that in even deeper. So win-win. I love connecting with you guys and if you want more of these conversations or even have questions about what we talked about or anything A DHD entrepreneurship related, then you must join my free Facebook group.
