One of my brilliant coaching clients, Vanessa Broers, recently reflected on what’s helping her achieve massive financial and internal results – and we decided to share some of her reflections with you. Enjoy!
From Vanessa:
‘Jesse invited me to share what explains my change in state and income and success. What happened? What decisions have I made inside and out? What have I done, inside and out? I love this exploration, and I thought I’d share it here in case any of it is helpful.
- DEEP SPIRITUAL PRACTICE. Separate from Sales Full Stop, I have been in the deepest spiritual container I have ever experienced – which absolutely primed me for the work we’re doing here in this group. It has been about totally understanding my egoic patterning and experiencing deeper levels of self-knowing and expressing – not to mention literal rituals of prayer, shamanic magic, and reconnecting to God.
- WEEKLY SALES CALLS. The necessity to have a weekly sales call has forced me to confront the fear of not knowing who my next client will be and to engage in that process from a place of active trust. I can’t control it, but I also can’t ignore it. As I type this, it elevates my heart rate and can easily pull me into fear as I still realize I don’t know who my sales call will be with next week. But I’m staying with it (and then remember that there are 2 people for me to follow up with!)
So there was definitely a slow build for me as I crushed through all the sales calls and learned more and more about who I am and am not in that process. Which allowed me to claim more and more of my authenticity, expression, and power.
In my sales calls, I’m trusting more and faster. I’m saying yes more and faster to what I want. i.e.: selling the retreats in Mexico, giving myself the Airbnb I want, bringing a babysitter from the US and paying her way, and staying in the beachfront hotel I’m having my clients stay in. It’s all up-leveling me and scaring me at the same time. - DAILY SOCIAL MEDIA POSTING. Committing to daily social media posts played a BIG role. Posting has confronted me every day with where I can see myself and where I see some other version of me showing up. It allowed and demanded I get clearer on who I am and what I do.
- BEING TRUTHFUL IN MY MOST IMPORTANT RELATIONSHIPS. The exploration with my husband Sibe has been huge – it’s the biggest truth I haven’t wanted to look at. So even though I don’t know where we’re headed, it’s opened up a huge amount of honesty, liberation, power, freedom, and clarity. I’d better start deciding what I want, releasing the permission I’m seeking from my husband. This has cracked me open profoundly, but it’s also eliminated a huge amount of vague fear and anxiety and had me feel closer to big money than ever before. Because the truth is where money is created, and anytime I’m hiding behind some half-truth, I’m also keeping myself locked in fear, falsehood, and scarcity. Not to mention the literal experience of feeling like I had to make my decisions in alignment with my husband, and now I’m not doing that. Frankly, I don’t want to need anyone’s permission or use anyone or anything as a scapegoat, and I’m no longer participating.
- MICRODOSING. I chose to do a 6-week micro-dosing program which was so impactful that I’m doing it again in a few weeks. This medicine opened me up to a greater connection to bliss, self-compassion, truth, and courage than I ever imagined. Although it’s way more fun to be blissed out and fearless post-medicine, I can meet my fear with SO much more compassion and trust.
- LIVING MY DREAM LIFE NOW. The Boulder house….this has been huge, huge, huge. Just considering being able to give myself the property I WANT and showing up daily in these conversations with the realtor as if I am that woman (because I am) has called me into thinking way bigger. Allowing my nervous system to get normalized to the higher rent, going to the property a few days a week, and feeling how much my heart opens when I step foot on it allows me to tap into the financial potential and the generosity I can offer. And has me feel more and more what is CORRECT is that property.
It has pushed me deeper and deeper into trust, as the house exploration keeps calling ME into deeper and deeper levels of trusting in the impossible.
First – it was just renting a house that cost $7800 / month
Then I negotiated it down to $7500 plus the renovations I wanted.
Then it was considering a rent-to-own option, and now we are just exploring an outright purchase through seller financing.
Each of these steps has asked me to uplevel what I think is possible, uplevel who I see myself as, scare me into money fear and then meet that with the power to create and trust in the impossible.
It’s asking me for deeper and deeper levels of trust and vulnerability. With every step I take, I want more and therefore risk the disappointment of not getting it, which pushes me back into trust.’
