0:25
fallen a bit stagnant? And final question, do you feel as if you
0:31
are currently only scratching the surface of your immense potential? So if you answered
0:40
yes to any of those, does not have to be all but to any
0:42
of them, then this episode is absolutely for you. If you didn't,
0:47
but this episode got your attention anyway for whatever reason, keep listening because you
0:50
know you're going to get some good nuggets. But especially especially especially if you
0:55
answered yes to any of those, this is for you. Let's go.
1:04
Welcome to Aline with Ali, the podcast for online business owners and entrepreneurs who
1:07
are ready to create the life and business of their dreams. I am so
1:12
happy you are here. So I was perusing Pinterest a few months ago.
1:19
It's been a minute and I came across this ad. And I've talked about
1:23
this before with clients. I've definitely talked about this before in my membership I
1:29
don't know if I've talked about it here, so if I have, then
1:32
just bear with me. But there was a reason why I'm bringing it up
1:34
again because I came across this ad of it was like this beautiful woman walking
1:42
slow motion, and the text over the screen was like disappear for six months,
1:52
come back brand new. Basically like come back as the blah blah blah
1:59
archetype. It was like dark femme archetype or I can't remember it. Every
2:04
time you see the add it's different. But I found this to be so
2:09
interesting for a couple of reasons. Because number one, as often as I
2:14
saw this brand, it had to be working, Like something about this brand
2:15
is super enticing, not only to me but to other people. But then
2:20
also I'm like, why is this so enticing? Like what is it about
2:24
disappearing for a few months and coming back new right as like a new version
2:31
of you? What is that? What is that in us that we find
2:36
that so appealing? And furthermore, is that necessary? Like why would we
2:43
want to do this? And is it necessary to disappear? And I can't
2:46
remember if it was like a month or six months, but either way,
2:52
like is the disappearing piece necessary and I've thought a lot about this. And
2:57
by the way, in case you're wondering this, it leads you to a
3:00
quiz like this in depth personality quiz, and it leads you to some mindset
3:05
app. I can't remember which app. Anyway, I was super I was
3:07
like, what what what is this? And that's what it leads you to.
3:14
But it got me thinking, right, like this is so interesting.
3:19
And what it brought up for me too is memories I remember back in my
3:27
twenties, right, and actually, like even before that, I've had many
3:31
moments where it's like something within me is like we need to change. Something
3:39
needs to change, right, like like we need to judge this up a
3:45
little bit, Like what we're doing right now is not working. And I've
3:50
always loved the idea of of this, this kind of like all around rebrand
3:59
as a human. And I've since taken it into business and we'll talk about
4:02
that. But I even remember, like in my twenties, for example,
4:08
this was well before Chris, well before kids, but I was like in
4:12
college, I was a bartender and in you know, your classic twenties toxic
4:18
relationship that goes on way too long and like being so caught up in the
4:25
drama. And there were multiple times where I was like, you know what
4:29
I should do. I need to just delete all of my social media,
4:33
fully focus on me, like keep contact with close friends and family. Otherwise
4:40
like I've dropped off the face of the earth, and I fully like focus
4:43
on school, read self development, dye my hair, like whatever I need
4:47
to do, get myself strong again, allow myself to like re meet myself
4:54
in the depths of where I am and come out as the new version of
4:58
me, and then and then reintegrate myself, you know. And I never
5:03
did that, and I wouldn't go back and change anything now because because we're
5:10
good. But but I've always wondered, like what I wonder what would have
5:14
happened if I had the courage then to do that. But regardless, I've
5:18
done this in business multiple times for myself. I have met myself in these
5:27
moments where it's like this isn't accurate anymore, right, whether it be like
5:35
the results that I'm receiving in the moment, the way that I'm representing myself
5:41
as a business, as a brand isn't accurate anymore. How I feel about
5:46
what it is that I'm doing and the things that I'm talking about, like
5:51
a change is needed, and any time or not anytime, every single time
5:58
I have heeded this call and I've been able to be self aware enough to
6:02
feel this, this call and this desire for new and I've met it with
6:13
Okay, what does that look like? And let's do the things. Let's
6:15
make the changes. I've always come out the other side with bigger and better
6:23
results experiences, just my own experience of the thing feels better. Right.
6:30
It's like it's like that feeling when you cut all of your hair off.
6:38
That's like the best way that I can describe it. If you've ever done
6:42
that before, whether you ended up regretting the haircut or not, it's that
6:46
build up of like before you're like, I just need to like the old
6:50
has got to go. And it's this representation, this manifestation of I'm different
6:59
now old me is gone. This is the new me now, you know.
7:03
And it's funny that I'm talking about this because my hair is way lighter,
7:06
like you watch the videos of these I've recently, I don't know if
7:11
you could sider me blonde or what, but we've been going a little bit
7:15
blonder, a little bit blonder, and I almost went back brunette, but
7:18
I was like, wow, we're already here. Let's keep lightning a little
7:23
bit. And I'm loving it. But it's just funny that I'm having this
7:27
conversation now. But you know, like if you've ever done that before,
7:30
you know, it is exhilarating, that feeling when you heed that call,
7:36
when you answer that call within of like hey, And oftentimes it's not even
7:42
loud, and oftentimes it shows up as this, this feeling of like this
7:50
doesn't feel very fun anymore. This doesn't feel like it should or like it
7:58
has. This doesn't feel like me. And I've thought about this a lot,
8:03
because, like I said, I've felt this many times in life and
8:07
multiple times in business. And I've had multiple periods where in business where it's
8:16
like, Okay, it's time for a pivot and it's time for like a
8:20
reinvention of some sorts. And when thinking about this, I believe the reason
8:28
why this comes up for us and will come up for you, no doubt
8:33
at multiple times in your career, is because we're changing all the time,
8:39
right you are rapidly, maybe not rapidly. I feel like people grow at
8:43
different paces. But you are growing and evolving all the time. And if
8:48
you are focused on self development, if you're an entrepreneur, if you are
8:56
growth oriented, then you are rapidly growing and all the time. So it
9:01
makes sense that every few months or however long, this comes up for you.
9:07
Unless you are consistently allowing your business and your prices and your branding and
9:15
clientele and you know, whatever is representative of who you are as a business
9:18
and brand in your industry, unless these are changing consistently along with you,
9:24
then of course there's going to be a time where you wake up one day
9:28
and you realize, oh, my shoes are too small, right, Like,
9:31
that's what that is. It's like, all of a sudden, you
9:33
wake up You're like, oh, I don't fit into the size anymore.
9:39
I'm too big for this. Why does this? This doesn't feel comfortable anymore,
9:45
This feels tight, This feels uncomfortable. And what this actually feels like
9:50
to me in my experience, is stagnancy is boredom, is like I'm not
10:00
living up to my full potential or I'm not being sincere anymore. That's happened.
10:09
There was one particular time in my business it was the summer of twenty
10:15
twenty one, and I was hardcore pouring into myself in personal development and mindfulness,
10:26
and I was just really taking care of myself in that way. And
10:35
I just like anytime I want to post something online or sell or even sometimes
10:41
like hosting calls with clients. It just the best way I can describe it.
10:48
And you've heard me use this phrase before. It felt like I all
10:52
of a sudden, I was walking through mud. It just didn't feel as
10:54
easeful as it used to. And what I've now learned this is a key
11:01
indicator for me that something's amiss, something needs to be shifted. And back
11:07
in summer of twenty twenty one, I at first I didn't answer this right.
11:13
I felt it, and I was just like, you know, I
11:15
mean, we have a lot to do as entrepreneurs. We have a lot
11:18
going on, especially if you have kids or a busy life in addition to
11:22
your business. So you're like, Okay, maybe it's just a bad day
11:26
or whatever, maybe it's just a bad week. And it kept getting louder
11:30
and louder. I kept getting more annoyed with my business experience and my experience
11:37
of my business to the point that it was like, do I even want
11:41
to do this anymore? And I knew the answer to that was yes,
11:46
but not in the way that I was currently doing it. And as a
11:52
matter of fact, what I also noticed too was I felt like my energy
11:56
felt stagnant, but also my results had fallen stagnant too, And I remember
12:03
distinctly around this time receiving coaching around like being stuck at fifteen to twenty k
12:11
months, which is amazing and I was so grateful for that, but I
12:16
felt like I had hit this cap on what I was doing, so again
12:22
not only feeling stagnant about my experience, but also my results had totally fallen
12:28
stagnant, and it was like, Okay, why am I not able to
12:31
access the next level? What's missing here? And there were a few factors
12:39
of this for sure, Like one thing, and I've talked about this many
12:43
times, so like one thing was I was not feeling gratitude for where I
12:48
was at at all because I was so focused on getting new and getting more.
12:52
So that was huge for me to be like, whoa, whoa,
12:54
whoa, I'm so deeply grateful for what it is that I do. And
12:58
when I was able to reconnect with that gratitude for the business that I have.
13:03
That was wildly helpful. And also I had to answer the stagnancy and
13:11
the energy, Okay, what is it? What is it about what I'm
13:16
doing right now that is not working? And for me it was it was
13:20
that I had grown so much that darn near everything from the offers I was
13:30
putting out, to all of my branding, to the content that I would
13:37
share and the things that I would talk about, to even the mentors I
13:41
was working with, even like friend groups. Right like like I just felt
13:48
like, Okay, some things they got to go, Like they need to
13:54
be jug up, they need to be shaken up and changed in some way,
13:56
or they've got to they've got to go because these are not working anymore.
14:01
And when I got clear on those things and more importantly, actually took
14:03
action and then those changes were actually visible like like you know, it was
14:13
it was the proverbial business haircut is what it was. It was like I
14:18
went from you know, I had like ass length hair to all of a
14:22
sudden I got like the boss Bob. And when I made these changes and
14:28
it was like whoa, this is this is her, but she's not the
14:33
same, and it led me to like those stagnant fifteen to twenty k months
14:41
shifted to thirty, shifted to forty, shifted to consistent fifty k months and
14:46
kept growing consistently. From there, I get led to this to the new
14:50
that I was looking for. It led to that new, to that new
14:54
level. But in order to get the new, there's got to be new,
15:00
right, Like, you can't keep doing the same thing again and again
15:03
and expecting different results. We know this, we hear this, but it's
15:07
so cliche that it's something that I feel like can very easily slide under the
15:16
radar. Okay, So if you're resonating with any of this right, if
15:22
you feel like you are feeling disconnected, you feel like, again the results
15:30
aren't matching what it is that you should be, what you're doing on the
15:33
outside is not reflective of who you are on the inside, then maybe some
15:37
sort of reinvention is in order. And I just want to share too,
15:41
this is really really something to think about because, as we know, you're
15:48
going to get mirrored back to you how you feel within right as within,
15:52
So without, if you are feeling bored, if you're feeling stagnant, if
15:58
you're feeling disconnect. Did you don't feel great gratitude for where you are?
16:03
You're not having a good time, then what are you going to get back
16:07
in your business? You're going to get a lot more of the same.
16:11
So what can we do to not only be more of that accurate representation of
16:18
who you now are as a rapidly growing and involving human being. Because I
16:22
know everybody who listens to this is rapidly growing, involving all the time.
16:26
What can we do rapidly or to more accurately reflect who you actually are,
16:30
but also to make you excited again, to reignite that passion for your business
16:41
again. This is really big. I feel like this is something that not
16:44
a lot of entrepreneurs talk enough about. Even there can be some of you
16:49
listening right now. And I've been in this experience too, where the results
16:55
are resulting. You are making good money, you have clients that you love
17:00
and that you adore, and you're doing work that you are connected to.
17:04
But something about the way you're going about it feels blaw right. The passion
17:11
has died down a little bit, in the same way that you can experience
17:15
this in relationships, like anybody who's been married for longer than five minutes,
17:18
say amen, because like we've all been there, We've all been like,
17:22
it's not that your partner all of a sudden sucks or is it right for
17:25
you, It's just that we got to freshen it up a little bit.
17:30
We need to reconnect, We need to remember what we're in this for.
17:36
We need to read aside, recommit, reinvent this next level of us as
17:44
a couple, as a union, to embark on the next level and to
17:48
reach a new level in our relationship. In the same way that that is
17:52
so true in your relationships, whether it's with a romantic partner or a best
17:57
friend over the years, this is so true in our businesses. So in
18:07
my experience, it starts kind of quiet, right, It starts as like
18:12
maybe this is just a bad day too, that was maybe this is kind
18:15
of like a bad, weird week to why is this getting louder and louder,
18:22
And sometimes you don't want to heed the call because it's like, you
18:26
know, we spend so much time getting ourselves to where we are, and
18:32
it's like the last thing I want to do is is now change things?
18:36
What about consistency? Well, baby, you're You're the consistent factor here.
18:41
You shifting your prices, you playing with your branding, you playing with your
18:47
offers is not being inconsistent. This is you creating new for your current clients
18:55
and probably new ones that are going to be attracted to this new iteration of
19:02
who you are. But I fully get it. I've fully had those thoughts
19:07
of like, oh my gosh, change again, switch it up again.
19:14
Yeah, it's like a haircut, do you want it or not? Okay,
19:17
maybe we don't cut a full bob, but like, what about some
19:19
highlights? What would be the proverbial highlights in your business and brand? Something
19:26
has got to shift and that's going to look different for every single one of
19:32
us. Because at the end of the day, as business owners, as
19:36
the leaders of our businesses and the founders of our businesses and the captains of
19:44
the ship, it's our job to stay fresh. It's our job to keep
19:48
the fire alive, to keep the passion alive for what it is that we
19:52
do. It's our job to create an in our world and maintain an inner
19:59
world that is a match for what we want to see on the outer world
20:02
and what we want to attract in and as business owners, especially online business
20:07
owners, it is our job to market ourselves well in ways that make us
20:12
excited, that's connected and authentic to who we are right now, so that
20:21
that what we put out as marketing and content and when we show up,
20:26
the energy is there. If you have ever made a post just to post,
20:33
or that you're just like, I just need to post something, just
20:36
get this out, you remember how that went. There's a big difference in
20:41
a piece of content, or even go back to a launch that you've done
20:45
in your business where you are so like, genuinely excited for what you're putting
20:52
out into the world and the way that you're putting it out into the world,
20:55
versus when you're tired or you're not, like you don't really love.
20:59
Maybe you love what it is that you're selling, but you the strategy isn't
21:03
aligned, or the content isn't aligned, it's not going to go as well
21:08
as the one where it is. It's just not so if you are feeling
21:15
stale, flat board, like you need to shake it up a little bit,
21:21
like what you're doing isn't you any more? A reinvention is in order.
21:29
So let's bring it back to this question of Okay, if we were
21:34
to do this right, like the proverbial haircut for the business and brand,
21:41
because we're going to keep this focused on business and brand obviously, because that's
21:42
what we do here. But like, what is this vibe of disappearing?
21:49
Is that necessary? What I have found in my experience Okay, and this
21:55
is just my opinion on this, I have found it is an option,
22:00
but it is absolutely not necessary. Not only is it not necessary, but
22:03
it's also not feasible and not realistic for most most people, right, Like,
22:08
if you've got an ongoing business and brand, it probably does not make
22:15
sense and it's probably a little irresponsible to disappear, you know, for six
22:22
months, maybe a month. I know many people have taken months off.
22:25
That's one thing. But like, is it necessary to do the job of
22:32
reigniting your passion, reinventing yourself, putting out the new into the world.
22:37
In my opinion, the answer is no. It's an option. You could
22:41
absolutely do that if you want to be that badass and fully pour into you
22:47
and come back brand new. I love that, and that's available to you,
22:52
but it is absolutely not necessary again in my humble opinion. Okay,
22:57
So before we get into because I'm gonna share with you, like some things
23:00
that I want you to consider. If you're like, okay, this is
23:03
me, I need this. I some thing's got to change and I'm ready
23:08
to shake it up a little bit in the way that I present myself and
23:11
things that I do and reignite my fun again. Here are some major reinventions
23:18
to think about, because this is standard. This is something like if you
23:22
go and you think of like, you see this a lot in famous people,
23:27
and those are the examples that we have obviously that we can find and
23:33
we can actually like see the evolution of somebody. It's mostly famous people,
23:37
but anybody who has been in the game for longer than five minutes, they've
23:42
reinvented themselves, probably multiple times. This is how you stay in the game,
23:48
right like growth and evolution is the game across the board. No matter
23:52
what and how you do that is You've got to stay magnetic. You've got
23:56
to stay interesting to people. If you've never change, you might be appreciated
24:03
for that for sure, but there's always going to be like this shiny new
24:07
thing over here. And I'm not saying this needs to be a comparison thing.
24:11
And I'm certainly not saying you need to change anything in order to keep
24:15
up with somebody else. That's absolutely not what I'm saying. But I'm saying,
24:22
as you grow and evolve, you need to have the level of self
24:26
awareness and discipline who say, Okay, what is this next version of me?
24:30
And how do I represent that now? How do I be true to
24:34
this? Now? What does that look like? Sometimes these are tiny,
24:38
little pivot changes. Sometimes these are giant, giant, giant changes. So
24:42
I'm going to give you a list of famous people who have made giant changes
24:48
and reinventions in their careers and it's worked out really freaking well. So starting
24:53
with number one, Taylor freaking Swift right, huge reinvention. She was like
25:00
country sweetheart to pop superstar to indie folklore. Right, She's done this multiple
25:07
times in her career. Lover or hater doesn't matter. She is a queen
25:12
of reinvention. We love that. Arnold Schwarzenegger, John Cena, the Rock
25:18
right, these pro wrestlers or you know, Arnold was a bodybuilder, but
25:25
they go from this pretty interesting career fighting or building muscle if you're Arnold to
25:33
famous actors, wildly famous actors, by the way, Arnold then goes to
25:38
be the governor of California. Like, you can't reinvent more drastic than that,
25:45
if you really think about it. It's kind of crazy. Kim Kardashian,
25:51
we all know how she started in the game, right, being famous
25:53
just because or you know whatever. Do you think the reason is to now
25:56
being this giant brand mogul. Jennifer Lopez was a backup dancer, then turned
26:03
to actress, then turned pop star, then turned back to actress to super
26:08
Bowl. You know, super Bowl started the super Bowl one of them anyway.
26:15
Gwyneth Paltrow oscar winning actress to the creator of massive brand and business Goop,
26:25
Lady Gaga, insane pop star, insanely successful pop star to a pretty
26:33
good actress. Jordan Peele of Key and Peel comedian and actor, switched to
26:38
writing, producing, and director a massive successful horror movie, get Out,
26:45
And now he's doing more horror movies when you probably would have typecast him as
26:51
just a comed you know, a funny guy for his whole career because he
26:52
was so darn good at it. Now he's doing like completely the opposite.
26:57
Jessica Alba, actress to and actually I think before then she was like maybe
27:03
a model or something turned actress turned the founder and CEO of Honest Co.
27:07
I think she's the CEO anyway, She's founder of the Honest Company. Okay.
27:11
So these are huge examples of people who, throughout different stages of their
27:18
career, dared to not only ask the question who am I now to Okay,
27:25
now, how do I represent myself as that new version to the public,
27:29
to the world. This is not easy. Making these changes are not
27:34
easy. But I want you to go back and think of all of these
27:37
examples. Do you think Taylor when she was freaking killing it as a country
27:44
star, the writing was on the wall. She had already made it.
27:48
Do you think when she was deciding to skip genres I'm sorry, switch genres,
27:53
which at the time wasn't as popular, wasn't as common. Do you
27:57
think she had any doubt when she was going to do that? I would
28:02
guess so. I'm sure there were a lot of naysayers out there. And
28:06
I remember I remember when she switched to pop and everyone was like, Okay,
28:08
this isn't gonna last. This is you know that, there's no way
28:11
this is whatever? Now look at her, right, you know? I
28:17
think if you were to go to Jessica Alba and say, hey, you
28:19
you were, like, you know, a pretty good actress. If you
28:22
had kept at it, you would have continued doing great work, right,
28:26
Like, do you do you think she felt nervous about starting a clean beauty
28:32
company? Probably? But do you think if you went to any of those
28:37
people and you ask them, do you regret it now? Do you think
28:41
their answer? B yes, doubt it. So it's normal to feel a
28:48
little bit of trepidation when you want to make any kind of change in life,
28:55
but especially in your business, especially as an established business and brand.
29:00
That's normal. But the difference between the average normal person and people who go
29:08
on to do insane things like the list of people that we have named and
29:12
other incredible business owners that we haven't named, is because they're able to walk
29:18
with that fear and follow their intuition and their gut in those impulses anyway,
29:25
and make those changes and take the risk of doing something new and presenting themselves
29:32
as somebody new. So three things that I want you to do. If
29:37
you're like, okay, this is me, A change is a coming.
29:45
How do I do this? What does this look like? I want you
29:48
to consider these three areas and what I would do if I were you,
29:55
I personally would journal on these and see what comes up. But the big
29:59
piece here is the follow through afterward. Okay, that's the most important piece.
30:04
So if you feel like there's a reinvention in order, I want you
30:07
to think of these three things. First thing, we need to realign what
30:15
it is that you need and that you want. Okay, you're rapidly growing
30:22
and evolving. What you're going for may not be the thing that even gets
30:27
you excited anymore. What you do to take care of yourself, what you
30:33
do to keep you to keep you happy and just operating on a normal level,
30:40
may not be the thing that's aligned anymore. So let's take it to
30:42
like basic needs and levels, the way that you what it is that you're
30:48
eating and caring for yourself, the things that you're doing for fun, the
30:53
people that you're hanging around. What we need to realign. We need to
30:57
get clear on like what is this next version of you that you're calling in
31:03
and pro tip here if you're not sure what that next level is, like,
31:07
what do you want it to be? Like? What where? So
31:11
remember when I said I was like stuck I was feeling stuck at fifteen to
31:15
twenty k months. My next level was fifty k. It was like,
31:19
okay, I'm ready for Like when I was just thinking of like the monetary
31:26
results, what does that look like monetarially, monetarily and that also looked like
31:30
different types of offers that I was creating. But at first it was just
31:34
like, okay, the results, that's okay, So like what do you
31:40
want it to be? So and I know I said I was going to
31:42
keep this to like business and brand, but we'll talk a little bit outside
31:47
of that too, because we're we got to look at a holistic picture,
31:51
because as the owners of businesses and brands, you're a human first, right,
31:56
So we got we got to look at the hole. So this might
32:00
be something where you're like, okay, this next version of me, like
32:05
she she feels a certain way, right, she feels a certain way in
32:08
her body, she has a certain level of energy. Okay, so what's
32:13
the next thing that we need to reach that. Maybe it's a new workout
32:15
routine, Maybe it's eating differently, Maybe it's letting go of a vice that
32:21
you know is old one point zero version of you to tap into two point
32:25
zero version of you. But we've got to get clear on I would do
32:30
this in every area of your life, in health, in business, in
32:32
relationships, personal, Like, look at every area and ask yourself, what
32:38
what do you need right now as a woman and a boss to be realigned
32:44
with what it is that how you're feeling within, how you want to feel
32:47
within. That's the first area I would look. The next thing that we
32:52
need to do is we need to recalibrate to your new normal and your new
32:59
desires that you're calling in. So when you start attracting in or when you
33:06
easily attract things in, it's because it's it's off of a pedestal. And
33:09
we've talked about this a lot in this podcast. It's when you keep things
33:14
on a pedestal, pedestal that you're keeping it within an arms distance of you.
33:19
So when you normalize what it is that you're doing, that's when it
33:23
kind of becomes your new normal. Right, it's just who you are.
33:27
So there was that point in time where I had totally normalized twenty K months,
33:30
Like I get up and I make twenty k months. That's just what
33:34
I do. And the key here is it's we still feel grateful for it,
33:39
but it's also not shocking. It's it's your new normal, you know.
33:44
So what is the new normal? What is this thing that we need
33:47
to recalibrate too? And oftentimes this looks like taking that next thing off of
33:53
the pedestal. That's one of the best things that you can do. Okay,
33:59
you want to hit amount of downloads on your podcast, take it off
34:00
the pedestal. It's not that like you're the one who's adding meeting. You
34:05
want to hit XK or x figures in your business, take it off the
34:08
pedestal. What that means is removing that meaning. So if it feels big
34:15
for you, if it feels like something that's only available to the best of
34:20
the best, or you know, whatever the story is, you are attaching
34:22
meaning that is unnecessary. Hitting money has no meaning, results have no like
34:31
we attach all of the meaning. So this is why some of you,
34:37
when you hear that I was hitting fifty k months or twenty k months and
34:43
saying that it wasn't enough or that I wanted to hit more, you were
34:46
like, I couldn't even imagine hitting that, right. It's because the meaning
34:52
that you've attached that is very different than what I had attached to it and
34:57
in the past. This is such a good example because in the beginning of
35:00
my business, one of my first big goals was to hit twenty k months
35:07
that like, I couldn't even fathom that. I could not fathom twenty thousand
35:13
dollars coming to me in a month, let alone multiple. That was like
35:22
to me, that was like my I made it moment if I could do
35:25
that, do you know what I mean? So there was that point where
35:30
we're like, like I can pull up journals, I have journals where like
35:35
that's the thing that I was made fitt. I make twenty k months,
35:37
Like I would like write it again and again, I make twenty k months,
35:39
twenty k months, twenty k months. And I had it on this
35:44
on this pedestal, right, And as I continue going, it became this
35:49
thing that like, as I got closer, it was just like it came
35:52
this thing that like would be cool to its inevitable. So it started to
35:55
become normalized. And then I hit it, and then I hit it again,
36:00
and then it became this normal thing. So do you see how that
36:02
shifts? So I had to recalibrate then to what is the new thing?
36:09
That I need to take off the pedestal. What are these things for you?
36:15
What is it that you are attaching unnecessary meaning to on your you know,
36:22
quote unquote next level that we need to remove and attach that meaning that
36:25
we need to re surrender to. This is huge, huge, huge,
36:31
huge when you're ready to calibrate some more, because again it's we don't even
36:38
realize that we're doing this, but we have these things, these people,
36:43
these moments, these experiences on this pedestal, and because of that, we're
36:49
keeping it within arm's reach of us, because it is outside of us,
36:52
because we've never done it before, because we can't imagine, because it would
36:57
be so cool, it can you can still feel like it would be so
37:00
cool, and you can still hold the excitement for it without keeping it at
37:05
arm's length. And then finally, the like the really fun part, in
37:09
my opinion, if you have an online business and brand, like I said,
37:13
one of our jobs is to market ourselves in a way that holds the
37:16
magnetism of what we feel inside. That's a match for how we feel on
37:21
the inside. If you feel like a freaking boss and that ultimate best,
37:30
most real, most most authentic sword for sure. But I guess like,
37:42
the newest version of you, you know, the most evolved version of you.
37:49
We need to integrate her into everything outside of us, right, and
37:55
especially as business owners, this is a piece that will a lot of people
38:00
don't realize that they're missing because they keep going with the same branding, same
38:06
color, same vibe, same content, same style, same strategy, same
38:10
same same, same same, because it's what they used to do before,
38:14
because it's what's worked in the past before, because it'd be too complicated,
38:17
too annoying to whatever to change it. So it's a mismatch. And then
38:22
they wonder why they keep attracting more of the same people, experiences, results,
38:30
and how they're feeling on the inside is not being reflected on the outside.
38:35
It's because how you're really feeling on the inside is this, Like you're
38:38
not answering the call, so you're getting that's what you're getting reflected back to.
38:43
Right. So the third piece is how do we integrate this next version
38:50
of ourselves within and without inside of us and outside of us. How do
38:55
we how do we match the next level we are that we're calling in within
39:02
inside of ourselves to where like this is who we are now and outside of
39:08
ourselves for the new that's going to come in, for the new brand,
39:15
and clients and people that are coming in. When you get these things a
39:19
match to each other, you're gonna blow your mind. That's just a fact.
39:25
And again I've said this like anytime that I've had these moments in my
39:30
business where I answer, just it feels like a call, Like that's what
39:32
it feels like. It feels like this itch, this urge of like something
39:36
needs to change, something Like I just feel like it's that haircut itch,
39:39
right, I need to just change it all. It doesn't have to be
39:45
all. It could be as big as small as you want to. But
39:46
like you answer the call, and when you do, I believe what happens
39:52
is is because you're now a match for how you're feeling inside and you're matching
39:55
it to like this outside manifestation of the inner. It's like it takes the
40:01
magnetism level to a degree that you haven't experienced in a long time. It's
40:07
just fallen a little flat, it's fallen a little stagnant. That's why you
40:12
feel that way, right, So a reinvention is in order. Are you
40:17
allowing yourself to do that? Are you allowing yourself to play in business,
40:22
in life, in whatever area. It's so freaking fun. And I personally
40:30
do not believe that we need to disappear to make this happen. We get
40:35
to do this at any point. You could do this overnight in some cases.
40:39
Sometimes all it takes just tiny little tweaks here and there to get insane
40:45
results because you're shifting. You're not only shifting your point of attraction, but
40:51
the frequency. That's what that is, right, Your point of attraction is
40:54
the frequency. When you match the frequency of those levels, that's when you
41:00
can attract it in. So definitely reflect on those three prompts for you.
41:09
But anybody who wants to take this deeper, and you're like, Okay,
41:15
I want to do this, but like, for real, I want to
41:17
do this, but not alone, Like I want to go deeper on this,
41:21
but I'm not exactly sure what this looks like. This is actually going
41:25
to be the focus of my next class. So I personally have shifted a
41:30
few things in my own business. I've reinvented a few new offers in my
41:35
business. I'm going to tell you about those now because I think you're really
41:38
going to like them. Because one of them includes a low cost membership that
41:43
you can cancel anytime, and I'm going to be teaching classes in a way
41:47
unlike anyway. Well, I've done this a few ways before and they worked
41:52
really well, and I'm going back to this model that I used to do,
41:55
or that I've done a few times. It just it wasn't something I
42:00
did consistently. And now I'm making more of a thing. So let me
42:04
tell you about it. First of all, my next class that I'm teaching
42:07
is called Reinvention. So we're taking this and it's going to be on steroids.
42:12
So if you're feeling like you want to do this in a very in
42:16
a much more tangible way and have fun with it, come to this class.
42:22
We'll put the link in the show notes, and there's a couple of
42:25
ways that you can get it. So you can buy the class by itself,
42:30
which is perfect, right. You can just get the class. That's
42:32
one way. But then I also now have this brand new low cost membership
42:38
again that you can cancel any time. So I have another membership that's a
42:43
year long commitment that's all in the membership, and if you're in the membership,
42:47
you get all these classes I'm about to talk about. But this new
42:52
membership are for those of you who you don't want the year long commitment,
42:57
but you want to get access to multiple programs for a good price. That's
43:04
that's this next membership. So it's called the LFG Membership. Let's fing go.
43:09
That's that stands for and it's ninety nine dollars a month. We also
43:15
have a pay in full nine hundred and ninety where you get two months free
43:17
and you get a to the moon strategy call with me. So if you
43:22
want to sit down and strategize with me, you can pay in full for
43:24
this and you get that as a bonus for a limited time. But with
43:30
the LFG Membership, I have a list of teachings that I'm going to teach
43:35
over the next year. You can see it on the sales page. You
43:37
can see the full list. I've left space for a few that I'm gonna
43:42
I want to, like allow myself. I want to I don't want to
43:45
plan everything out to the te so I've left space for programs that come inspired
43:52
over the year. But I've already had this list of things that I'm teaching
43:55
brand new or reteaching. But the way that I'm teaching it is in one
44:00
class. Okay. So one thing that I noticed about myself as a business
44:07
owner, as a mom, as somebody who like I've got a full life,
44:10
right, one thing that I noticed about myself is while I appreciate programs
44:16
and investing in whatever the program is, that I need to learn the thing
44:22
the skill that I want to learn, while of course there's a time and
44:25
a place for them, what I don't love is when it takes days and
44:31
days or weeks or months. Like to me, if I want to learn
44:37
something, I want to learn it fast. Okay, I will, of
44:40
course take the time to integrate. I'll do what I need to do there,
44:45
But as far as the concepts, if it takes longer than a few
44:49
months or or day months of course, weeks or days. If it takes
44:54
too long, I'm out. Like I don't have personally the bandwidth I do,
45:00
but like I don't want to have the bandwidth for that. I guess,
45:02
like, just give it to me, you know, like we don't
45:06
need to take so much time. And I've talked to a lot of clients
45:09
who feel the same. So it's like, Okay, I want to offer
45:14
my classes in this way right, like where I tea, there's and I've
45:19
been doing this again. I've done this a few times and you'll see me
45:22
market it like, Okay, this is no fluff, is succinct. It's
45:23
to the point like I'm just giving it to you raw nasty here. I'm
45:28
like, I don't need to sugarcoat it. We're just like getting to the
45:30
good stuff. I've done that, and those classes tend to go really well.
45:35
And I think that's the reason why. So with this membership, if
45:38
you were to join the membership, you get over the well as long as
45:43
you're a member. This list of programs I'm gonna be teaching over the course
45:45
of a year, and it's gonna be done in these one time transmissions and
45:50
sometimes it'll be an hour, sometimes it'll be multiple hour transmissions that you can
45:54
come and you can watch the recording, you know, however many times you
45:57
want. But the point is like we're just getting it done. You know.
46:01
It doesn't need to be like this long drawn out thing. Some things
46:05
that you some concepts and teachings. Yes, right, there's some things that
46:08
I can't include in this membership because it takes much longer than a one time
46:14
transmission, but there's a lot of things that can be taught in that way.
46:20
So anyway, that's the new Vibe again. That's called the LFG Membership.
46:23
You can join right now ninety nine dollars a month, and the first
46:28
teaching in this is Reinvention and it's taken place on February ninth at six pm
46:35
Central. You can be there live with me, or you can watch the
46:37
recording. And again you can either grab it through the membership at that price
46:44
or you can just get it by itself. Either way, we'll link it
46:46
in the show notes so you can take a look. But yeah, if
46:50
you're feeling this, if you're like I need this, like it's a change,
46:54
is definitely in order for your your outer to reflect your inner or your
47:01
inner to reflect what you want to see on the outer. Reinvention is for
47:06
you. It's going to be so much fun and it's gonna reinvigorate and reflect
47:16
the next level for you. So anyway, that's all that I have for
47:21
you today. If you ever have any if you have questions on that,
47:23
you can always reach out to me on Instagram at Ali I Reeves. But
47:28
I love you. I hope you have an amazing rest of your day,
47:30
and I will see you here next week. Bye.
