punch the anxiety monster 😈

Last week, I was speaking to one of my private clients on a video call.

She’s been sensational at what she does.

But some questions that came up:

“What would you do in this case?”

“What would you do to improve my offer?”

“Shall I stick to automation or get a VA?”

We went through all her questions. But there was a sense of uncertainty in the air.

This uncertainty is transcribed to a feeling of anxiousness.

I dove deep into the conversation, then paused for a minute.

“Here’s a virtual hug. Every little thing, is going to be alright”.

She turned around and said, “That’s what I wanted to hear
”

So I promised her we’d do everything together in a hybrid ‘done for you’ / ‘done with you’ environment with close proximity in 2024.

She smiled, and sent me heaps worth of work by the end of the day.

“I came to get clients, and you’ve helped me find myself”.

That was the best thing I heard to end the year.

Because a big part of my role is decreasing that sense of anxiousness and tackling uncertainty.

You know what you’re doing. But it’s your thoughts that stop you.

I, too, face them daily. And I’ve learned to embrace the demons.

I even give them names, and characters.

I realize that volume demolishes all doubt.

So, putting things in action. Creating movement.

Slaps that anxious monster in the face.

Just like going for a run. (If you're on Strava, hit reply and let me know, let's be running buddies).

It might feel off, but once you get into motion it gets better.

The best thing you can do is turn that thought into action.

Go do it. It makes everything better.

The maker is within you,
