I’ve been going hard this week. I got all excited about my new programs and freaking ROCKSTAR 1:1 clients and before I knew it my days were packed with trainings, FB Lives, Q&A’s, coaching calls and more.

I LOVE my work.

I LOVE working with my clients.

And my ladies are so awesome, the breakthroughs and results I’ve seen my clients get this week make me want to do cartwheels.

When I’m on these calls I’m full on energy, on top of my game, channeling divine guidance and all that goodness.

The problem?

If I overbook myself, then afterwards, I’m wiped.

Like, need to lay on the floor and can’t talk to anyone the rest of the day.

This is not particularly productive when it comes to running the rest of my business, being in flow, answering messages, creating my new Clarity Cure program or any of that.

Why am I sharing this?

Because we ALL get into a space where we think we can just keep doing more, especially when we care deeply about the work.

I have a bit of martyr in my personality and a history of exhausting myself in order to help others (supposedly I died in my past life saving a child, and I brought a strong need to save the world into this lifetime…which I’m working on).

Anyway, that’s why I have to really watch my boundaries and practice self care like a boss. It’s not personal, it’s necessary.

Because sometimes you need to say “No” more so you can serve more. #truth

So, I had 1:1 coaching calls with the most badass rockstars today — from women who have highly profitable businesses and are craving more flow, to energetic DREAM clients who are attracting their own clients before our first session, and women who are letting go of painful pasts in order to start their own revolution.

I just LOVE this work, this community and getting to be part of someone’s massive up level.

And it was so much fun that the first thing I thought afterwards was “Wow!! I want more clients like these women!” and I promptly got on my computer and got to work, only to realize I didn’t have the bandwidth to even write a sentence, let alone be an energetic magnet for my DREAM clients.

I knew I needed to chill.

To recharge.

But, I was fighting it like a kid who didn’t want to put their pajamas on after a bath.

“Noooooooooo”

“I don’t want to take a nap!”

“Naps are for babies!!”

Well, guess what?

I just got up from a nap. And I am ON TOP OF THE WORLD! Like a new person.

I immediately felt so energized that I got a sh*t ton done fast. While still in bed. On my phone.

And then proceeded to brainstorm with a 1:1 client over voice messenger to come up with a brilliant idea that’s going to totally transform her business and position her as a leader in the health industry.

And had new prospective 1:1 clients reach out, while I was sleeping.

Moral of the story?

We push ourselves and just keep thinking doing more will get us more, help more and create more. I even totally fall for this dumb dumb story.

And guess what?? It’s a big lie!

The most important thing in business is that you’re embodying the energy that your people want more of in their lives. And it doesn’t matter what your business is, your ideal client is never looking for more exhausted, burnt out energy.

So if you find yourself feeling this way, wanting things to happen faster, or pushing too hard…

I highly recommend taking a nap.

And don’t be surprised when you wake up to miracles.
