Us wholehearted women in business tend to find that hard. When we’re out of our comfort zone and feel a bit stretched, we often make it mean something about ourselves. We attach a story to it. There are the facts and there’s the drama. To be successful in business we need to stick to the facts instead of getting caught up in the emotion of it.
- I don’t want to bother them
- What if they’re already working with someone else
- What if they can’t afford to work with me
- I’m not far ahead enough
- I’m not trained enough, I’d better sign up for another course first
- I should refer them to someone better
To move past that discomfort you could:
- Use EFT/tapping
- Do breathing exercises
- Do yoga
- Put some music on and dance
- Journal how you’re feeling, fully feel it and allow the discomfort to pass
The key is to stop waiting for it to go away, because it doesn’t. When you become successful, the upper limit problems come in and you are likely to start sabotaging your success. At those times it starts feeling really hard again. When that happens, do not use it as reason not to contact those prospective clients, not to do that webinar, not to write that book or create that workshop.
My biggest self sabotage has been going of to learn something new. We can feel quite good about ourselves when we’re learning because we are growing & expanding. It doesn’t really challenge us to step outside of our comfort zone though. It doesn’t challenge us to do what will actually make us more successful which is making money.

Think about what can you do today to keep moving forward, even if it feels uncomfortable. Make that call, book that workshop space or send that email. You can do this. Be bold, be brave. Because your dreams matter.
