Hey hey.  Come join us here: www.ivapaleckova.com/limitless 

So. I wanted to give you guys a teaser of what we're going to be activating for you in LIMITLESS next week :)

A total new paradigm of leading yourself and your business.

The old school me was a control freak. And guess what, in some many ways I still am. 

I love my funnels. My flow charts. Controlling my outcomes.

But, what we really need to embody is all shades of the rainbow.

A variety of frequencies. 

The goodness of everything we are.

You didn’t fail and  burnout coz you did too much.

Remember your last business venture failure?

Bring it to mind right now.

You know it not fail because of the market, or covid, or your aging parents. That’s the shame talking.

You know you failed coz you burnt out.

But the burn out wasn’t because you did too much.

Or didn’t do enough self care.

It was this….

Backtrack. How did you succeed to begin with?

Likely you got yourself a coach,

you were on a deadline called ‘running out of cash’,

and you PUSHED.

You got uncomfortable, and you got uncomfortable again.

You went live… a lot.

You grit your teeth and you sent 100 messages to people about  your upcoming event.

You felt awful, awkward, until you numbed it, but you did it.

Then you asked people to jumped on a call with you. You were scared but you did it.

And then you asked people to jump on a cal with you to talk about working together. Hard but you did it.

Then you asked them to be a client.

You started getting clients. You kept doing it. It got less uncomfortable, somewhat.

You told people you loved it, but if you had to be honest… it was not easy.

Then you got your first team member to help. Finally. The rescue was here.

They really weren’t doing the best job, and you didn’t feel comfortable correcting them but you did it.

You asked them to perform, you asked for the metrics, over and over.

You pushed through your resistance every day.

Did all the uncomfrotable things.

Which is what we, the business coaches, told you to do.

You got your revenue, you got your golden star.

Until something happened.

The coach wasn’t there to yell at you anymore.

The bank account wasn’t low enough to make you do anything.

The thrill of calling yourself a finally successful enterpreneur wore off and you didn’t care.

There was nothing to prove any more.

You stopped pushing through the discomfort

Clients were trickling in slower and slower.

Your launches got smaller.

Until the resistance that you have been trying to make go away, finally swallowed you.

______

Sounds familiar? Please tell me if it does.

This could have been prevented!!

But then agin… it’s all perfect, coz… here you are.

What’s the fix then?

You are a human, with emotions.

Emotions like..

Feeling like a self-important fraud when you go live on camera on your Facebook page.

Shame and guilt, when you tell your team members what to do and you see their discomfort.

Dread, when you have to sit down at your computer and follow up with prospects.

Nervousness, when you have to make the ask at the end of the sales call.

You had three options on how to handle it.

#1. MAKE IT GO AWAY. You could have made it go away and numb it out, and push through.

#2. JUICE IT. You could have totally identified with it, and not start your business is the first place.

The result is the same. Fail later or fail now. These emotions will get you sooner or later.

There’s a third option called TRANSMUTE IT.

And that is the work i do with my clients WHILE they are building their business.

We transmute these difficult feelings and turn it into gold.

Shift in perspective, higher level of awareness, insights that turn them into a world class leader..

One who is FREEER by the day.

One who gets stopped, just like everyone, but she will come back, heal her stuff, and move forward, because this is her purpose, to heal and help others.

This isn't an episode for everyone, just for those of you who are interested in plant medicine and not quite sure where to start, I shared my experience with Iboga, Ayahuasca, Kambo, Bufo, Sacred Mushroom and San Pedro. 

Year Review → I call 2021 an enormous success beyond measure and beyond my wildest imagination.

Not for the reasons you think lol!

Yes, there was business success, 7-figure revenue in Q1, which…

lead me to states where I had to question everything and the ideas behind competence, success, achievement… and what followed was….

KALI.

I was made  aware of her presence recently, but I suspect that she’s been around “helping out”

at least since 2019 when 4 days into my pregnancy my lover left the country and I would never hear from him again to this day.

Who is Kali? A Hindu goddess of chaos and destruction who dresses in skulls and looks a little scary. Also the goddess of death and rebirth and transformation.

She will sweep in with seemingly random events and throws your life in chaos, out of love. When you aren't willing to tear your own life of pretenses down, she helps.

She's not gentle about it.

Neither am I, so I have immense appreciation for the “cut the crap” energy.

Magic happens. You are forced to purify, purify, purify.

What followed was an intense cleansing process.

Past trauma.

Relationship with self.

Narcissism.

Valuing weird stuff, like success for the sake of success.

Constant seeking and searching.

Needing to be respected or seen as a success.

Hiding and pretending (also known as lying) to others and to myself.

Judgmentalism.

Seeing others as more than/less than.

Control.

Endless pressure and carrying the world on my shoulders.

Perfectionism, superdoing, superwomaning.

And on and on and on.

If you think “what the heck Iva, what kind of hell were you living in?” - that seemed kind of normal, like normal ego stuff. A lot of it was not even conscious.

There was one thing, in particular, that was hell that brought grief so deep I could not even face it.

Months and months of resistance to spending time with my own daughter, who is just about the happiest most loving toddler and there was no logical reason for it.

I thought well, as a working mother-father 2-in-1, that’s just how it is.

I was always a good mom through it all, but I would count down to her bedtime so I could exhale.

Healing that, and falling back in love with her as well as with myself, was the biggest gift of 2021, but I had to heal everything else on the list for the heart to open back up.

I cannot even begin to tell you how grateful I am to have had the resources, the teachers, the support to be able to dig this deep.

And so…

Going into 2022 I am…

WILLING!!!! (Screams on top of her lungs).

I trust so much the process (of life). I highly doubt 2022 will be smooth sailing but that is so not the point anyway.

I am willing to follow my soul and my heart even when I disappoint others and it's completely irrational and people think I have gone nuts (lol i have been told that this year too.)

I am willing to continue turning into goo anything that's not pure.

I am willing to experience and feel any emotion that arises.

Willing to stop, and do absolutely nothing when that is what is needed (that is the scariest one on the list.)

Willing to stop mid-sentence, if my soul and heart says stop.

Willing to let go of anything that stands between me and freedom and, willing to say or do ANYTHING that will free another.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Iva Paleckova is a mindset and strategy coach for entrepreneurs, a CEO of  LeadersBreakFree.com and the host of the Break Free Show on iTunes.

She is known for taking her business from 0 to 7 figures in 18 months, as a single mom to an infant, and the creator of the Break Free Process.

We have been through a lot as an entrepreneurial community. Many, many entrepreneurs are at the end of their rope. The vast majority of the tactics that worked in 2020 don’t really work anymore, but it isn’t about the tactics at all.

It’s actually a beautiful transition.

People are smarter. They smell agenda from distance.

Many don’t want to get on sales calls.

If they want to buy from you, they want to decide that on their own terms without sales pressure.

If they talk to you, they want it to be a human-to-human conversation.

They don’t want to attend your free events unless they actually know it’s going to be worth their time and not a 7-day pitch fest with a bunch of withheld information. It’s not about the money, it’s about their time.

They want to know how to work with you because more than ever they realize the importance of transformation, but they don’t want to jump through 898784 hoops and loops to get the info on how to work with you.

But most of all, they can’t be bothered with inauthenticity. They want to work with a human person. They don’t care about your certifications. They want to know that you have been through the craziness too and now are here to tell stories about it.

This all is beautiful and is forcing us all as an industry to uplevel, into INTEGRITY.

My intention for the last days of 2021, is very different than you might think.

I chose death.

I asked and prayed for the courage to SEE, and DIE EVERYTHING that does not belong to 2022.

Aspects of me, my brand, and my business that don’t belong.

I asked multiple clients to leave and released others.

I shut down our instagram profiles and did heavy-duty cleanup.

I shut down the S.E.R.V.E. method retreats. I LOVED the serve method, and it’s an amazing concept and it has served many, but - it’s a zone of genius for me, not a zone of magic. And there’s a difference.

I launched a new concept, the Break Free Process, a free inner journey experience (beta version happening in January.)

Old mission: Do a lot, make 6 and 7 figures, and hopefully be happy because you have the money.

New mission: Your CEO metamorphosis.

I call it metamorphosis because it literally is turning everything that doesn’t belong into a goo ina cocoon, so you can be a butterfly.

It takes SO MUCH courage to metamorphose.

Most people are just trying to put wings on their caterpillar. That is NOT a transformation. The old does have to die if you are going to re-birth your business.

Where do you start?

Some crazy difficult questions. And if the answers don’t push you, you aren’t doing the work.

#1. The stuff I am teaching - is this in my zone of magic? Because there’s a difference between a zone of genius and a zone of magic. You can be GOOD at something, really good, but if it’s no longer your purpose, eventually you are either going to end up broke again, or feeling like crap, or both.

#2. Do I need the courage to release some clients?

#3. Do I need the courage to release some team members?

#4. Do I need the courage to release aspects of my program, or my program altogether?

#5. Do I need the courage to change my launch strategy?

And then there is you. To be authentic, you need limitless freedom of self expression. You need to die everything that’s holding back from your most glorious, authentic, expression. The questions to ask are:

#1. What are you afraid that if people knew about you they wouldn’t work with you?

#2. Do you believe that you have to show up a certain way, or say/deliver certain things for people to like you/want to work with you?

(I guarantee you have at least 5 rules for yourself.)

Part 2.

We have been walking asleep.

Now what? :-P

The pain that we are experiencing. The emotional rollercoaster, the sickness, the pressure, the stress.. is the pain of having prayed to false gods and aligning with inauthentic values.

If you have made it to this point and you had a moment when you said “SHIT. I have been deceiving myself and others my whole life.” huge congratulations.

What’s the big deceit?

You know, some people believe that flying into a building and killing a bunch of people is going to take them to heaven.

We think it’s weird.

But we think we have our values right.

No, we’re just somewhere else on the scale of lost and found.

We are ignorant and completely innocent.

No sin is even possible. You just don’t know what you don’t know yet.

I’m no different. I’m lost in so many ways I haven’t even seen yet. I’m sure this post will be cringe-worthy a year from now, you know what I mean? :D

(I HOPE it will be cringe-worthy {in the most self-compassionate way.} I hope my eyes open wider and wider.)

Where have we gone wrong then?

#1. We think if we can line all of our ducks in a row, assure complete certainty and security, and feel in control of life, we will reach a state of happiness.

(We chase certainty.)

#2. We think that if we get everyone to approve of us, agree with us, like us, love us, admire us, respect us, life will be fabulous.

(We chase validation.)

#3. We think that if we stand out, be unique, different, and special, do more, be more, have more impact, we will be at the top of the mountain.

(We chase status.)

#4. We think if we just figure out the right way to be, follow the right people, have the right opinions, think the right things, be part of the right circles, be in the right room, we’ll get there.

(We chase getting to heaven.)

#5. We create a system of hierarchy of bad, good, better, best, and sort people on our ladder. We evaluate, grade, and compare. And then we do the same thing to ourselves. Size 2 is better than size 13.

10,000 followers are better than 500.

Achieved is better than lazy.

(We one-up.)

And without questioning we have bought into some interesting thing. For example:

That super-productivity, achievement, doing, and being more, is good. Are we sure about that?

That good parents should keep their kids from struggling. Are we sure about that?

That education and knowledge are important to success, and success is important. Are we sure about that?

That climbing the social ladder is what to strive for. Are we sure about that?

Now, women should be more feminine and slow down and men should be more masculine. Are we sure about that?

========

We have been walking asleep. Instead of discerning and questioning, we have been looking to others to give us the answers.

They must have figured it out.

Welp - most of them haven’t.

I mean, look at us, funny humans:

We are injecting ourselves with toxic stuff to heal our bodies.

We poison ourselves with processed food to soothe our feelings.

We jump from one bad relationship to another in search of completion.

Some people fly airplanes into buildings to “get there.”

….

I went to try yoga over and over, just because I thought I should, and just didn’t get it.

I tried to potty train Lexi when she was 18 months to no avail, just because I thought I should.

I have maintained friendships, just because I thought I should.

Life became a set of made-up rules and doing things that sounded good, but were they really aligned?

Valuing what everyone values, just because - if this is what other people think and do, it must be true.

Time to wake up, and start realigning.

If you are at 6 figure mark, this is for you. 

6 figure business means.. 50k income. And that means, without a team, easily 60 hour workweek. 

Which means... $24/hour. 

That's fine. But that does not allow you to afford the support that you need and grow your business. 

So... let's talk about what keeps you from going to 7 figures.

So what IS really overwhelm? 

For us super-doer extraordinaires it's this: 

It's a feeling OUT OF CONTROL...

You have your endless list of things you want to be done,  and you want it done RIGHT THIS SECOND. 

It's basically the narcissistic ego going "f** I can't control it all!!!." 

Let's work with that! 

"I got myself some victimized clients... what now" 

Everyone else will tell you 'uplevel your clients'. 

And it's NOT GOING TO WORK :). Do this first. 

And, come join us on next week's retreat: www.ivapaleckova.com/retreat 

Thank you all so much for your beautiful responses. I felt really blessed to receive so many beautiful things. 

And then there were some difficult ones. 

So... here's my response to those. 

The same strategies that are working for one group are failing for others.

So we think there's something missing. 

Better strategy, better tactics, better platforms. 

But no, that's not it :) 

Here's what the business coaching world needs, I think. 

By the way, here's the registration for our next retreat next week: www.ivapaleckova.com/retreat 

My whole life I managed everything, and I am really good at it.

I had zero interest in ever not being that. 

In this episode I take you underneath of what is the process like for an over-achieving super-doer to move into a place of trust and love. 

Enjoy! 

There is a reason you are avoiding sales and it's not what you think it is. ... 

This is probably the most controversial message that I have recorded here. 

You hear, "everything is working out for us" or "everything is perfect as it is". 

Is it...??? 

Hmmm. What about mosquitos?? I don't see them exactly serving me in any way. 

How is everyone's positionalities about covid and the vaccine exactly making this world a better place? 

In this podcast I am sharing my coming to terms with mosquitos and the vaccine. 

If this resonates, reach out at iva.paleckova [at] gmail.com 

aa

A completely from the heart and uncensored experience from my journey towards joy. Enjoy! 

What is it that I am doing this for again? 

I am going through the motions but I don't feel motivated, or inspired, AT ALL. 

I fact, I really can't even remember WHY i had this 7/8 figure vision anyway. 

I really don't feel like doing any of it. Urgh. I need a rehab, and do something else, but what exactly?!?   

Maybe it was the wrong dream to begin with. 

Maybe I am on the wrong path. 

But what is that new path?

It's not coming to me, and it's so frustrating. 

If that sound familiar, this is the episode for you :) 

I see this all the time with our clients. So much so that I just finished recording an entire module on this for my QLE’s.

People come and say:

“People aren’t showing up to the sessions, I don’t know what to do”

“My clients keep giving me the ‘I can’t afford to keep paying for this’”

“I am so heartbroken because my clients aren’t getting the results”.

SO. I want to do some troubleshooting with you on this week’s podcast and talk about the 4 reasons why that’s happening.

By the way, plesae make sure you are jumping into our retreat: www.ivapaleckova.com/retreat 

And to book a call, go to ivapaleckova.com 

In this podcast I will walk you through what's working and what's not working in the world of online launch strategies, what are the strategies that ARE working, and what are the ones that are not.

My personal battle with the FRAUD syndrome.

When I was first trying to launch my business coaching practice, I could not get any clients for 10 months.

Why? I felt like a gigantic fraud. I had just had to close doors of one of my restaurants, and had no business coaching clients.

I knew that I was really good at some things in business, not great at others, but what was really in my face was:

This was then. Long time ago.

But... it has come back as I transition in my business. 

register for our next retreat: www.ivapaleckova.com/retreat

Let's have an honest conversation about why you aren't converting. You're either winning or growing so celebrate the failures.

See you on the next retreat!!! www.ivapaleckova.com/retreat

Do your inner work IS your purpose here, that is why you came.

LIFE.

The most unlikely episode 100.. just so happens to be about my week 8 last week.

It is impossible to describe everything that went on last week to have me come out on the other side feeling whole and complete for the first time in 33 years, but here it is.

I have seen this many times.

Without clients, colleagues, and also my coaches.

First they try doing zoom retreats and they have incredible, incredible success.

And then the same tools, same strategies, that were once working… just STOP.

And the first place we go is this:

What am I doing wrong?

Maybe I need a different strategy?

Maybe I started charging too much?

Maybe I need to change a coach?

Maybe this doens’t work any more?

And then they start questioning, and doubting, and panicking, and working… HARDER.

True story. We just bombed our retreat. We hit a little over 50% of our target.

What are the questions you have to ask yourself??? 

Let's go. 

Ladies, its time to flip the script, burn the ship, and 10x. 

But what it will take from you is... being UNREASONABLE. 

See you at the retreat! www.ivapaleckova.com/retreat 

On this episode, I dive into the 3 step delegation process I train my clients on!

Step 1: Make your wishlist

Step 2: Design your 5x (using the Kelly Roach 4x method) metrics

Step 3: Design your 5x i 6 weeks training system

This is the final big conversation we will have in this book, but it is one of the most important that I want to have with you.

You cannot, and will not, scale a business and have a life that you want to have, full of joy, adventures, freedom, and family…. Without a TEAM.

And yet, it is one of the biggest hurdles that entrepreneurs face and I have spent the past few years trying to figure out why.

Why are entrepreneurs not getting the help they need?

Reason #1. They don’t have the money.

But... as you will find out, that is the very reason you SHOULD hire a team. 

By the way, if you want to discuss how we can train YOUR team to be profitable,  this is a link to book a call:

The time you invest into the funnel depends on the stage of your business, generally speaking, you and your team’s effort will be split something like this:

Lead generation: 20% of your time and effort

Lead nurture: 30% of your  time and effort

Lead closing: 15% of your  time and effort

Servicing clients and generating referrals: 20% of your  time and effort

Operational, finance, and other ‘behind the scenes’: 15% of your time and effort.

This evolves as soon as you get to the low multi 6 figures for you as an entrepreneur. At that point you will be making a MAJOR transition towards:

Hiring: 10% of your time and effort

Team training, coaching, teaching, and accountability: 30% of your time and effort

Strategy: 15% of your time and effort

Content and brand leadership: 15% of your time and effort

Serving your clients: 15% of your time and effort

Operations: 15% of your time and effort

I invite you to take a look at your calendar right now and look where your time is going right now and your homework for the day is to have a complete reset and rebalance of your time blocks.

So far you have wrapped your head around launching a hybrid 1:many service, and doing free 7 day retreats to enroll people to work with you.

You also know that you have to fill your retreat with a number of people depending on how many new clients you want.

That in itself, however, isn’t going to be enough.

Sales is so much more than that in your company. And if you are truly committed to building a sustainable, real business, then this chapter is going to be crucial to your success.

I am guessing you have heard of a funnel in your business and how it works.

Too many times entrepreneurs tell me this:

“I love what I do, but I hate marketing and sales. I just love serving people”.

Sounds familiar?

What if….  everything you do in your marketing WAS in fact serving people?

What if you woke up excited to do your marketing and sales because you knew it was making so much positive difference in the world?

What if every piece of your marketing materials was in complete alignment with who you are?

I’ll never forget the day I took a morning walk with Lexi in a stroller on a walk with a friend.

Inspired by a theme of a reality TV show about billionaires, I asked him “If it was a question of life or death of both of your kids, would you be able to make a million dollars in the next 90 days?”

He said ‘no’, you?’

I thought for a second.. And reluctantly said ‘yes’. In fact, I knew if I really had to, I could do it in a month.

I quickly did the math, what would it take if I had no money in the bank account?

I knew exactly what I would do.

In this episode I discuss what it is. 

To 10x your business, you must 10x your courage.

If there is one thread that keeps entrepreneurs stuck at the level where they are at, it’s staying safe and playing mental gymnastics to avoid acts of courage.

Here are the 6 stages of discomfort. Where are YOU at right now?

Stage 1.

You have been working ‘behind the scenes’ on content. Spending hours on blog posts, emails, even books, or outline and content for your program. It makes you feel good. You feel productive. But, deep down you KNOW that none of this is going to serve people or scale your business. And the minute you are finished and it’s time to go talk to people or get on camera… the strategy changes and you go back to… content creation.

Stage 2:

You have purchased a course of a program that teaches you how to build funnels using ads or social media posting or whatever form that AVOIDS you talking about your program to people YOU KNOW. You get very excited about automation. At first it sounds so great - passive income, creating courses, or selling through funnels. But for whatever reason it never actually converts or makes you money.

Stage 3:

Or, you got to the point where you said ‘okay, funnels didn’t work, I’m going to do speaking. I am going to go on other people’s platforms’. So you buckle up, schedule some speaking engagements, maybe one a month or one every two months, , 10 or 20 people show up, t doesn’t yield the results, so you give up and go back to #2.

Stage 4:

At some point you have the breakthrough in sales and marketing because you have been at it long enough. You realize there is no way around human connection, visibility, doing sales, and being on camera. So you go live, a lot. You do facebook 5 day challenges, workshops on zoom, or whatever the latest trend. You are closing sales, but when it’s time to hire your first full sales rep or a coach, you just can’t seem to make that step. It’s too uncomfortable.

Stage 5:

You have now gotten over your fear of hiring. You got someone to join your company and do sales and marketing or operations.  They are a huge help, but far from profitable. You know you want them closing sales and driving the growth of the company, and you keep bringing it up, but you are scared if you push them too hard, they will quit, and you will be alone again. So you still aren’t scaling as much as you would like to.

Stage 6:

You pushed through, figured out how to teach and train your team and hold them accountable, which resulted in a crazy growth in your company. The tower seems to growing tall, but the base is a little shaky. You realize you don’t have a great billing system in place, have no business insurance, and you aren’t 100% sure if you are following the employment law. You have mickey-moused this business together. But the idea of hiring a CFO, a decent CPA, or a high level business coach that can really push you to the next level is paralyzing. You JUST made this money and the last thing you want to do is spend it.

At the time of recording this podcast, we have just closed our first almost 600,000 month and are on track to become an 8 figure company in the next 18 month.

We are one of the the very few coaching companies in the space growing this fast.

You are likely going ‘good for you, but over half a million dollar month is SO not where I am at! :D ’.

So let me backtrack so you understand just how unlikely this was for me to achieve.

18 months ago, I was not in a good place. I was a single mom to be, 6 months pregnant, and starting over from zero in my business coaching practice.

Doing all the things, tons of content, building courses and recording dozens of videos in a single day, working with a VA optimizing facebook ads, working on landing pages and social media content all day long.

In today's episode, we will discuss:
- 1:1 vs. 1: many vs. hybrid programs
- What are the essential components of 1:many programs
- How to price your 1:many program
- When is a good time to transition

Multi 7 figure leap in 18 months: What it took 

We are at $550k monthly revenue. 18 months ago I was wondering how I was going to pay the bills and my operations manager who was working 10 hours a week.

People don’t believe me when I say we over 200x’d our revenue in 18 months, and tht’s okay.

In today’s episode I want to break this down for you but before I go  there let me make one thing clear.

This isn’t about the money.

This is about the transformation that happens for me personally, for the 6 people on our team, and for the thousands of entrepreneurs who have gone through our free retreats and the dozens and dozens of clients who have been making the same leap, at a faster space.

The transformation is mostly spiritual, and allows you to get to know yourself as a completely different human being.

So let’s get started!

This episode is definitely not for everyone and I am pretty positive I will lose some audience, but - pretending perfection is not the name of the game as I think I have 

After almost 5 years of considering, hesitating, not feeling ready, making judgments about it, it was time to dive in and have mother ayahuasca show me what I need to see to further evolved. 

Just coming out of the most difficult 2 days in the past 18 months following the second ceremony, I wanted to share my experience with you.

I have miscommunicated big time with our clients, and with you. Let me set the record straight here.

Here it goes.

Week 8 is NOT a week off.

It’s not a week of relaxing, doing nothing, and binge watching television.

Week 8 is the hardest work you will do of the 8 weeks.

It’s the inner work where you put the past in the past, heal as much as you can, and receive inspiration for the following 8 weeks.

Here’s what I have seen happen. People either

If you want to grow your business, you have to grow yourself. This happens by running your business, taking daily emotional risks, moving through fear, but also, slowing down before you speed up again.

That is what I do every 8 weeks.

That is not to say I don’t do fun stuff. Lexi and I have done a lot of beaching as well, but 6 - 8 hours a day I am doing the inner work…

I always bring this back to the tomato plant concept.

Your plant won’t continue growing if you don’t weed out what has been holding your tomato back and don’t pour some water and sunshine at it, and that is what week 8 is.

Week 8 is about your tomato... 

Whether you have 3 clients or 100, it is important to not be doing this alone.

On this week's podcast, I will talk about hiring a profitable first or 5th team member.

I’ll discuss:
- The #1 thing during the hiring process to make clear to attract the best candidates
- The 3 keys to really empowering onboarding
- How to get your team member to pay for themselves within the first 30 days with the right training

_

In today's episode, we will chat about the length, pricing, and structure of the program that is the right fit for you.

You will also learn the 4 essential components of a powerful program that drives results that you can be really proud of.

Our clients are closing $30k, $40k, $50k, and $115k in their first 7-day free retreat.

How? We’re creating a short and sweet tactical training next week in the It’s Her Business show and we will walk you through how it works.

We’ll walk through:
1. The structure: when to teach and when to sell
2. Lead gen: how to fill your retreat with 250 leads without spending $$ on ads
3. Numbers: how to guarantee success of your retreat

Last week I had a very difficult presentation where I was very close to breaking into tears during the presentation.

Why? The one thing I was most afraid of that someone was say was said out loud: “You just care about making money”

Today I want to break down what resilience means :)
