This one is for the business owners and entrepreneurs of the group.

But if you’re not one don’t be phased…

There is some juice in this for you too

Because this game-changing principle

Is applicable to all relationships

Fair exchange.

I know, I know you have heard it before.

But,

It runs deeper than you may think.

It isn’t just dollar for time

It isn’t just product for money

It isn’t just a trade.

When I work with business owners I find an extremely common thought process.

“The exchange that exists at the transaction point is the money for the service”

But this is untrue.

There are many unconscious and conscious exchanges that occur that are either spoken or unspoken.

And in this.

There are many unconscious and conscious expectations that occur that are either spoken or unspoken.

And these unconscious unspoken expectations are the driver of the slowly eroding perception of the value of the product or service.

Both in the eyes of the business owner

And

In the eyes of the client and customers.

Now you might be thinking how…

Well, let me explain.

Within our offers, we have multiple value points.

And for each value point we have an expectation of use.

And if we are unaware of our true expectation for how we want the client to interact with that value point (e.g. FB Group), in the way that provides us the exchange we desire

We end up judging our product or service as “not good enough” and feeling ashamed or guilty about it.

This unconscious unspoken expectation of the client or customer to interact in a certain way with a value point drives the erosion of our perception of the product.

Then leads us to overcompensate to make up for it.

Let me share how I discovered this.

When I first stepped into my coaching business…

I had a weekly community Q+A as a part of signing up for either my group or my 1 to 1
And to utilise this you had to ask questions.

But I barely got any questions, and not many people would show up for them.

So I started to build up resentment towards my clients for not asking questions and not showing up, BUT I also started to feel guilty that I wasn’t providing the value I promised because people weren’t showing up.

And so I started going over on sessions times.

Over-discounting other products

Giving up my boundaries to fill this feeling of it not being enough.

I knew something was off.

And had explored it from many angles

But it wasn’t until I asked myself the question

“At the moment of transaction, what is it that I am expecting from my clients that I have communicated and I haven’t communicated?”

I went through and wrote a list, and then POP…

Like a wave through me,

I felt the resentment and guilt shift.

“I expected them to show up for the lives, add value and be a part of the community”

In exchange for

“The live Q+As, the group and being connected into other like-minded individuals”

But I had never communicated this.

Because it was something I was giving to them as a bonus…

You know ADDING VALUE…

And because I hadn’t communicated the expectations at the transaction point, no one knew I expected it.

I didn’t even know that I had an unspoken unconscious expectation of exchange that I expected to occur for the bonus value.

And so I was getting the feedback of guilt and resentment to awaken me to this.

Once I realised this.

It shifted the entire way I approach all my transactions.

And the entire way I look at my business offers and products.

And the way I get my clients to explore their transactions in business and in their personal relationships.

Making this shift stops the erosion of your service’s worth in your mind and the overcompensation pattern.

And so understanding what you expect for each value add and value point of your service or product is important. 

To maintain the feeling of fair exchange within yourself, with your customers and clients, and with yourself and your business. So you don’t build up resentment and resistance to them.

So I encourage you to explore the questions of Wisdom below.

You will most likely find that you have some unspoken, unconscious expectations eroding yourself, your relationships and your business transactions.

Remember:

The name of the game is fair exchange.

But if you are unaware of what makes it fair for you, you will be out of exchange with those around you.

My wisdom came at a cost. 

I’ve been through:

+ parents divorcing 

+ not seeing my biological mother for most of my pre-teen & teen years 

+ all kinds of unwanted sexual experiences

+ divorce 

+ physical and mental abuse in a relationship 

+ eating disorders 

+ suicide attempts 

+ panic attacks 

+ death

+ so broke and getting food from the Salvation Army 

+ major depression 

+ self-harming 

+ relationship breakup 

+ relationship breakup 

+ relationship breakup 

+ relationship breakup 

+ relationship breakup (that’s not a glitch – I’m an expert at those)

Oh the trials. 

The tribulations. 

The fire I’ve been in. 

The fire that’s been under me. 

The fire has run through me. 

And yes. It’s created me. 

But it hasn’t been easy. 

I have built bridges, made connections, and worked my arse off to appreciate the underlying hidden perfection (twelve years of a line, on average a week of applying the Demartini Method). 

The insights that have been birthed from these make me appreciate that in the deepest darkness, there is light. 

And that in every moment, there is a purpose. 

Let me say that again, just in case you missed it. 

Every. Single. Moment. Has. Purpose. 

Every seed sits in darkness before it’s birthed. 

Without my darkness, I wouldn’t have the wisdom to share with you.

Wrap your mind around this…

Everything around you was once an idea.

Imagined in the mind’s eye of someone else.

Or even imagined and created by you.

Your phone,

Your car,

Your bed,

The clothes you’re wearing,

The home you live in…

Even more powerfully, the life you are living.

I remember when this hit me.

I was staring at a skyscraper,

From the pool deck on our honeymoon in 2016…

“POP”

A tear ran down my cheek.

We can manifest from our mind’s eye, into our reality.

This huge building was once an imagined idea.

That was now standing in reality as a reflection of that individual’s vision for it.

This really blew my mind.

I mean it really really blew my mind.

It was a paradigm shifter…

It made me really grasp the power of being human and the limitlessness of our potential.

To literally be able to imagine an idea,

Build it in our minds,

Then create it into existence.

If you do not grasp the limitless of this power,

Sit for a minute.

Take a few deep breaths and then look around you.

What is man-made that you can see?

This was someone, somewhere, at sometime’s idea.

That you now have these things surrounding you.

Now even more powerfully…..

Take a close, deep, honest look at your life.

What ideas did you have for the life that you now live?

What did you imagine and envision for yourself that you now have?

What was once an idea that is now a reality?

What are you creating right now that was once an idea?

I hope you are starting to grasp the reality of this now…

It isn’t some hocus pocus bullshit.

It’s REAL.

It’s POWERFUL.

It’s what makes us as humans the ultimate creators when we focus on creation.

We literally have the power to create the life we want…

The deep, meaningful, intimate relationship,

The life-altering business,

The high-income,

The wealth,

The new industry changing products.

ALL of it.

You just have to have the courage and the belief in yourself to go after it…

Commit to the creation,

Create a plan,

Start building it.

Take the time to go through the “Questions of Wisdom”. I specifically created it for you to get in touch with your inner creator and increase your belief in this part of you.

Look through your entire lifetime, and you will uncover the magnificence of what you are capable of creating.

QUESTIONS OF WISDOM

What ideas or vision did you have for your life, that your life is now a reflection of?

What did you imagine and envision for yourself that you now have?

What was once an idea that is now a reality for you?
What have you imagined, that you have then created and manifested?

What are you creating right now, that was once in your mind’s eye?

“Every morning I wake up and just know that today is going to be just as hard as yesterday. And I’m convinced that tomorrow will not be any different than today. Is this what depression feels like? Because if it is, I’m depressed.” – Client A.

It’s Okay to Not Be Okay.

Yep. It is.  

It’s important to understand that depression can manifest in various ways and doesn’t always fit the stereotypical image we may have in our minds. 

If you believe that depressed people don’t get out of bed, mope around and look sad then you may not recognize the actual signs of depression in others or yourself.

Sometimes, people who are depressed can seem perfectly fine on the surface, which makes it challenging to identify the problem.

Unfortunately, this lack of awareness and understanding can lead to individuals ignoring their symptoms or others dismissing their struggles as simply being moody or seeing the world through a negative perspective. 

This is why it’s important to recognize that depression can come in many forms, and it’s essential to pay attention to the signs that may indicate a problem.

Here are some subtle ways you may be depressed. 

• When you lose sight of what is important to you, you fail to see it as the first step that can lead to depression.
• When you find yourself staring at the ground when you walk rather than out into the world.
• When we feel malaise about life and lose hope for the future. 

5 Signs You’re Ignoring Being Depressed

If someone cannot see that they are depressed, even the most convincing proof will not help them change their mind. Here are some signs you are ignoring your mental health and depression. 

1. You believe and give weight to your internal critic.  
2. You avoid and control your feelings (including feeling sad or down).
3. There is a huge gap between what you want and what you have, or between who you are and who you want to be. 
4. Your thought pattern is on a “struggle cycle,” where you find short-term gratification that doesn’t change once the feeling of gratification has passed. 
5. You have lost your purpose or direction in what is important to you. 

Steps Toward Transformation

If these five signs of depression are showing up in your life, rest assured that you are not alone. And you don’t have to stay on struggle street a moment longer than you choose. 

Maximum Growth was created to help you to get to the root cause of your emotions and help you to find more meaning in your life, which kicks depression in the butt.

I had this idea recently to do a review of my finances with a fine tooth comb. I wanted to know what a year’s worth of anything would cost me.

Opening my bank account on my browser, I begin searching between January 1st and December 31st 2022 on what I spend on various items.

• Personal Development: $46,498
• Health (in getting well again): $9,897
• Travel (not paid by work): $4,388
• Fitness: $2,852

The list was more extensive but it made me reflect on what is a year’s worth of anything.
It’s interesting to see how much I have spent on certain items that I may not have thought of as being that expensive.

For example, my personal development was a large portion of my spending, but I can see the value it has brought me in terms of new skills and knowledge. My coach helped me to see the value I offer in business, build my confidence in my path and purpose.

The return on that investment for the year was 3 fold. I’d invest more again to know I can make a bigger gain. That’s a year’s worth of something highly valuable.
Plus, the return continues as I don’t forget what I learned, I only grow more by learning more. #learningintoearning

On the other hand, my health expenses were unexpected due to being sick and off work for 31 days in the first six months of 2022.
I almost fell off my chair when I saw how many days it was.

It made me realize the importance of taking care of my health and a year’s worth of health is worth. Priceless.
Ok, so not priceless, everything is worth something. For me, it cost me being able to offer my service to the world. And that feels like it affects my soul. #ouch

Lastly, I love to travel. Especially being able to travel with Bonnie and for her to see the world. Time out gave me quality time with family and friends, plus the ability to put perspective on business. With perspective, I can come up with new and innovative ideas.

The idea of having Justin Wiseman to partner with me at Maximum Growth was born from time in Salt Lake City. (Did you miss that news?! Check out this post to learn more).
This exercise of “what is a year’s worth” has made me reflect on my spending habits and what each area that I have spent, and what is the return on that investment.

It has given me a clear picture of what a year’s worth of anything truly costs.
I now know I can set better financial goals for the future with this concept in mind.

I encourage everyone to take a closer look at their own finances and see what a year’s worth of anything is for them.

Firstly, this is a long post and, just in case you were wondering, this post is sponsored by caffeine and my undying appreciation for writing.

Being in the service business, we can sometimes get the balance out of whack.

Running a service-oriented business often requires a delicate balance between doing what you love and delegating responsibilities to others.

It is especially tricky when you are a new business owner and trying to strike the balance between saving money (and you doing the work) and investing in others to grow the business.

Striking this balance is essential for growth and success, as it allows business owners to focus on their strengths while leveraging the skills of others to expand their reach.

For me in 2022, the balance was waaaaaaay off. I was working 12 hours a day, plus being a mum to Bonnie, which meant working until past midnight most nights, very little time for much else.

My head was so full of a million things that needed to be done and I was stretched beyond my limits. It would have been OK for a month, but rolling into the fourth month in a row was starting to take a toll.

I dropped the ball, I made mistakes, I sent emails to the incorrect list, the timing was off in calendars. It was a hot ball of mess. (thank you for your patience too)

On one hand, I love what I do and that I sincerely care about my clients and that is the driving force behind business.

But the day that I realized that I was ‘burnt out’ and I couldn’t take another client session was the day something had to change.

I took four weeks off work (only a week extra than originally planned) and I got to work. The focus: How to strike a balance between doing what I love, building a business – oh and getting my life back again. 

As the universe provided, I had an all-expense trip for five days to Salt Lake City, so I took the opportunity to deeply reflect on my life.

If I solely relied on personal inspiration for growth and sustainability, I’m limiting myself.

My struggle was with areas of business that I didn’t love. I wasn’t paying attention either. I couldn’t keep up with the demands of running a business alone.

Delegation is critical for growth and sustainability. By empowering others to handle routine tasks and responsibilities, you  free up time and resources to focus on more strategic initiatives.

Additionally, delegations can bring new perspectives and ideas to business, helping to drive innovation and growth.

I wanted to delegate more, but I wanted to delegate in a way that meant the people who worked with me were equally invested in growing Maximum Growth as I was.

 

That is when an idea popped into my head. Justin Wiseman, a dedicated student at Maximum Growth, a business owner, a coach, would be a perfect fit in business. We have complimentary skills inside of business while sharing a love of coaching, universal principles and self-development. It’s the perfect business partnership.

We started a conversation and you know when you know that you just know.

It was like that. Roll on seven weeks later and Justin is now an equal partner of Maximum Growth. (check out the Facebook post if you missed it).

We are now able to leverage the strengths of each other, plus our automation queen Clavel who joined MG at the beginning of the year, so that we are able to grow Maximum Growth and lead the community in an inspiring way.

I am not recommending nor saying everyone has to get a business partner to grow. I know for my private coaching business, I don’t need someone to partner with, I can do that with the help of my executive assistant and some great processes in place.

But as Maximum Growth is a business, we have to adapt and evolve as the business grows.

This year is about doing more of what I love, filling all my buckets up, not just with work, but family, friends, fitness and striking the perfect balance between all my values being fulfilled.

How about you?

How’s the balance in your life going? Is there too much of one thing? And not enough of something else?

Curious to know, hit reply and let’s see how we can help you strike the perfect balance so you live up to the light that is within you.

Depression is a mental health condition that affects millions of people worldwide. Even those who know universal principles and coach people, find themselves sliding down a slippery slope of depression and can’t seem to stop the fall. 

 

There is clinical depression, which is intense and persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and worthlessness that interfere with daily functioning.

 

But what about mild depression? It is lingering but not enough to make you stay in bed all day, but just enough to be like a black cloud hanging over you that you can’t seem to shake.

 

Many individuals are often unaware of the signs and symptoms of mild depression, and may even ignore them altogether. 

 

When we ignore it, bottle it up, and not deal with it, it can lead to a delay in seeking the help that is needed to overcome this mindset. 

 

Having worked with clients this week who were experiencing between mild to severe depression, I wanted to share with you the three signs that you may be experiencing depression and ignoring it.

 

1. 1. You’re experiencing physical symptoms.
      
      Depression can manifest itself in physical symptoms, such as fatigue, lack of energy, and changes in appetite and sleep patterns. If you’re feeling run down and exhausted, even when you’ve gotten enough rest, it could be a sign that you’re struggling with depression.
      
      Crying about small things, hiding from the world, not wanting to go out, not wanting to share your personal life. Depression can manifest itself in many different ways, and these behaviors are often seen as symptoms of the condition.
      
      Similarly, changes in appetite and sleep patterns can also be indicators of depression.
       
   2. You’re struggling with negative thoughts and emotions.
      
      Depression often comes hand in hand with negative thoughts and feelings, such as hopelessness, helplessness, and low self-esteem.
      
      If you find that you’re battling negative thoughts and emotions and can’t seem to shake them from your thinking, it could be a sign that you’re dealing with depression.
      
      It’s important to acknowledge these feelings, understand the thinking that is creating them and seek support to help transform depression into living life again.
       
   3. You’re losing interest in things that once brought you inspiration and enthusiasm.
      
      One of the hallmark signs of depression is the loss of interest in activities that once brought you inspiration. You might have been in a relationship, and it is high value, and you are no longer in the relationship.
      
      You started building a coaching practice and then, after a short period of time, you lost your drive to build it.
      
      If you find that you’re no longer interested in things that you once loved, it could be a sign that you’re struggling with depression.

 

Depression is a complex condition that can impact many aspects of our lives. 

 

I know for me personally, last year, I invested a lot of time working through my low levels of depression. It felt like being in a dark tunnel and wondering when the darkness would lift. 

There were so many changes in my life, I found myself in a place in business I didn’t want to be in anymore. I was doing too much and not delegating enough- at my expense.

 

It felt like never-ending changes and having to adapt and pivot, continuing to apply mindset questions even when sometimes I wanted to curl up in bed and sleep all day. 

2023 has definitely turned a corner as a result of lots of hours of working on myself, my fears and fantasies. I can’t wait to share them with you this coming week.

 

In the meantime, if you’re experiencing any of the signs discussed above, we have a community who sincerely cares about you, and classes that help you to overcome depression and regain your sense of spark in your life again. 

 

Classes are back for 2023. 

So please come and join us, or share with a friend who could benefit from this email. 

 

Looking forward to seeing you on the inside,

Relationships are some of the most fulfilling and meaningful aspects of life. They offer a shared life experience, a companion, and a sense of belonging. But despite the perceived positive benefits, relationships are not without their challenges. 

 

The struggles people face in their relationships can impact our ability to work, focus, and make effective decisions. Knowing how to navigate these challenges can help you stay on track and on purpose in life and in business.

 

All relationships are unique. There is no one right or wrong way to be in a relationship, and what works for one couple might not work for another. It’s about what works for each other and the relationship.

 

Having coached business owners in their personal and professional lives for 13 years, what I have noticed is that there are certain universal struggles that people face in their relationships, and it can be helpful to understand why they occur and how to address them.

 

In relationships, some people feel trapped or stuck. This can happen when one or both partners feel that they are not able to be themselves, grow, or express themselves fully in the relationship. 

 

The more’ stuck’ or ‘trapped’ one feels, the more they believe leaving will ‘free’ them. But if we live by universal laws, you can never have one without the other. You’re free inside a relationship but trapped outside.

 

For example, a client I worked with who desperately wanted out of a relationship was free to do what they wanted, when they wanted, and became trapped financially as they only had one income to support their three children.

 

Every relationship has to manage conflicts and disagreements. When two people come together, they bring with them their own set of values, beliefs, and habits, and it is inevitable that they will clash from time to time. 

 

We live in a culture where arguing is seen as negative and agreeing is seen as positive. Arguing is neither right nor wrong; it is a clash in communication and an opportunity to seek common ground and work together to find a solution that works for both of you.

 

Fear is another common struggle in relationships. Whether it’s fear of losing your partner, fear of being vulnerable, or fear of being rejected, fear can have a major impact on your relationship. 

 

Make fear your friend, and face it head-on. Talk to your partner about your fears and work together to find ways to address them. In our Maximum Growth Business Class, we apply a series of questions to clear the fear each quarter, so there is less in the way of having the life you love.

 

So, it’s the month of love, and regardless of your relationship status, I wish you oodles of love flying your way.

P.S. Our doors open soon to join Maximum Growth. Know someone who’d like to join? We’d love an introduction to see how we can help them. 

 

 

 

 

This week in Australia, a new airline, Bonza, launched. 

 

It offers low-cost flights to some hidden regional and major capital cities. 

 

As part of Bonza’s phased rollout of flight releases, you’re able to book flights to 12 destinations on 15 routes.

 

Shouldn’t we all jump up and down with excitement?

 

Ah… Sit back down.

 

No. The flights go to random places like Coffs Harbour on the Sunshine Coast or Newcastle on the Whitsundays.

 

It is like saying you want to fly from Brighton to Oxford in the UK or Bloemfontein to Polokwane in South Africa. 

 

Every new business requires a business plan and then takes action to execute it. 

 

You can’t jump into your business if you have a vague idea of what you want, how you will market, get bums on seats or clients in sessions. 

 

I’m going to make a big assumption that Bonza has a plan in place. Especially since in 2020 the travel industry came to a screaming halt. The launch of a new business like Bonza could mean a sign of recovery. It costs a bomb to start a new airline, you don’t want it to come crashing down (oh God! Not the plane or the business!). 

 

The upside is, they are a company, and share the responsibilities around them. 

 

Being a solopreneur, you have to be the decision maker, the executioner, the CEO, CFO, CMO, COO, everything within the business. Maybe at some point in your business, you move from doing everything on your own to having help.

 

In the meantime, it can be challenging for several reasons:

 

• Financial instability: You’re responsible for all expenses and income. This means they have to bear the financial burden of running the business without the safety net of a larger organization.
• Lack of resources: You often have limited resources, such as time, money, and personnel. This can make it challenging to handle all aspects of the business and can lead to burnout.
• Isolation: Without a team or co-workers, you can experience feelings of isolation and loneliness. This can also impact their ability to bounce ideas off others and receive support.
• Responsibility: There is no one else to rely on. Everything from sales and marketing to finances and operations falls on the solopreneur’s shoulders.
• Difficulty in scaling: You may struggle with growing their business, as they often lack the resources and manpower needed to expand.

 

Starting, growing or thriving in business in any industry is no small feat. It takes courage, determination, and a clear understanding of yourself, your business and the market.  

 

Not everyone aspires to have a big business like Bonza, but you might have an unknown and unexplored destination in business you’d like to travel to and unsure how to get there. 

 

At Maximum Growth, in our Business Classes, we work every week of the year on your mindset around business. It takes what you imagine, and shifts your internal world to match your vision and goals. 

 

It’s a very inspiring 1 hour class, every week.

 

Come join us and make 2023 when all your business goals come to reality, see you in class.

“If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything.” This rings in my ear this week.

It is important to know your values and have a set of principles that guide your actions and decisions. When you don’t have a clear sense of what you believe in, it is easy to be swayed by others or to fall into what others want for you. You end up living someone else’s life. 

One of the most important things in life is to have a sense of purpose. This purpose can come in many forms – it can be a yearly goal you’re working on, focusing on your health, building a business, or a lifetime goal you’d love to achieve.

Whatever it is, it gives you a sense of direction and helps you navigate through the ups and downs of life. When you have a clear sense of purpose, it becomes easier to make decisions, set priorities, and stay focused on what is truly important to you.

Let’s face it, it’s not easy to define what you stand for. We have to sort through the other voices, what we think we want to get clear on what we truly want for ourselves. 

This process can be difficult and uncomfortable, but it is necessary to truly understand yourself and what you want to stand for.

Once you have a clear sense of what you stand for, then it is being oh so brave to act in alignment with what you decide. This means being true to yourself even when it may be difficult or uncomfortable, and even challenging someone else.  

It also means being willing to take a stand for what you believe in, regardless of who will stand against you. 

Standing for something means being willing to question the status quo and to challenge the status quo. This can be difficult as it can create conflict with those who may disagree with you. 

For me, it is the essence behind Maximum Growth. What we stand for is:

Maintaining equanimity with others and equality within self

Seeing the hidden balance and potential in our experiences

Share meaningful things with the world

Find fulfillment in what we have while striving for more

We also believe firmly that no great thing is created suddenly, any more than a bunch of grapes or a fig. If you tell me that you desire a fig, I answer that there must be time. Let it first blossom, then bear fruit, then ripen. #Epicitius 

Results take time. I stand firm in that there is no easy or quick fix, but consistency is key. That is why we have weekly classes for you to join every week to go deep with your mindset work, find the problem under the problem and deeply transform your business, leadership and life. 

I know the work is deeply healing and life-changing. 

So I’m curious, what do you stand for {first_name}? What are you willing to stand for and go against the crowd because it is something you believe in?

Remember, when you stand for something, you are less likely to fall for anything.
