To be honest, over the past year and a bit, I have been struggling with fear.
To the point where I stopped showing up online as much as when I started my business out of “fear” of what my family and friends think of me.
I also “feared” failure. (Don’t we all?)⠀
It had gotten to the point where every month or so I would get a great idea for my business, plan it out, do the content schedule, create the graphics, schedule the launch, and then… NOTHING. ⠀
😨😨😨Total digital stage fright.😨😨😨⠀
I would spend weeks planning it out and getting super excited about the opportunity to help my community and then, I would let “fear” take over and tell me the usual things.⠀
“Katee, who do you think you are to do this?”⠀
“Katee, you don’t know what you are doing.”⠀
“Katee, who is going to buy that?”⠀
The list goes on and on…⠀
As my girl Marie Forleo puts it: “Fear is your soul’s GPS.”
“With the exception of those moments where fear is keeping you alive,… (Definitely listen to those moments!) “one sign is if you can’t get a certain idea out of your heart or mind. No matter how hard you try it keeps popping back… Anytime you imagine moving forward toward that idea, you may feel afraid…
But what if we misinterpreted the signal?
What if fear’s message wasn’t “Danger” but “DO IT!””⠀
This chapter of “Everything is Figureoutable” by Marie Forleo really hit home for me and made me get back on track with an ongoing idea that I had been putting off, out of fear, for the last 2 years.⠀
It’s time to put fear aside and share what I have been working on that I KNOW will help people to gain confidence in their marketing so that they can make a greater impact on the world.
If you are ready to break through your own fears of running an impact-driven business, this one is for you!
