But that's absolute BS and a completely unachievable and unsustainable way to grow your biz, be in biz, and support your clients.
We think that the only way to show up, market, sell and support our clients is when we're in one 'perfect' state of 'aligned confidence' and anything other than 'aligned confidence' must be a terrible, horrible, no-good, very bad state to be in and clearly can't be conducive to showing up and selling.
We think being in a bad mood must obviously mean we're not congruent, worthy or aligned, or that our clients will think we're *gasp* also a human being who has shitty days sometimes... so then we obviously shouldn't show up until we feel happier.. right?!
Nooooo.
I beg (BEG!) to differ.
I always say 'The work is the work' and selling no matter your mood brings this right into focus.
Feeling emotional? Be emotional in your marketing.
Feeling like an imposter? Show your people how to move into deeper confidence.
Feeling uncertain? Model moving through uncertainty with trust and grit.
Show your people that you are real, and they will be real with you too.
You can be congruent with your message, aligned with your deepest truth and open-hearted for your people… while also having a hormonal meltdown, an anxious day, feeling time-pressured with life and/or little ones, and feeling a little bit over the fact that the kitchen is so messy, again!
You know why?
Because serving your best-fit clients isn't reliant on perfectionism.
Because waiting for yourself to be 'high vibe' means you and your people are missing out on a whole lot of magic that is here, all the time.
Because your natural state is the only version of yourself you ever need to be.
Because before we are coaches, healers and therapists, we are humans.
And humans feel.
A lot.
(As in, we feel a lot of things, a lot of the time.)
