Lately my inbox has been flooded with offers to listen to teleseminars, try out coaching programs and learn to live a happy prosperous sunshine and rainbow life. The promises sound glittery and full of hope, so I check it out only to hear yet another lifewasreallyhardbutthen I made it to the other side of glory and look at me now tale. Call me crazy but what I really want to know about was that part you strung together under your breath or glossed over with your magic spirit wand. How did you get your business from startup to multi-million dollar self help empire? And while you're at it, can you tell me about what you're currently struggling with because I'm just not buying it that you no longer struggle to keep the faith, like Ever.
I'm looking for a little more Real in my spiritual self help world and little less, as my beloved refers to it "airy fairy foo foo".
Here are just a few of the things I would like to know from all of the Tony Robbinses of the world (and no, for the record, it's not his offerings that I've been listening to so this is Not in any way a critique of his practices) and since I know that Tony doesn't read my blog, I would actually like to hear from all the various rungs of the ladder from brand new coaches to longtimers. If this isn't a space you're currently in (like ME sometimes), then can you please tell me about when you were and how you moved through it?!?
Do you see the sparkly and shiny efforts of other soulpreneurs and wonder why you are the only one who can't get your shit together?
Does everything need to be perfect before you take action?
Are you tired of faking it til you make it?
Do you love, love, love how you help people but resent your to-do list?
Do you possess hundreds of tools to move you forward but can't seem to apply them?
For the record, the term soulpreneurs was coined by my coach Lisa and I adore it... you know, people doing the work of their heart that they just Have to do or they aren't them. Some of you are nutritionists, hairstylists or energy workers - many of you are coaches like me. I'm looking for some honest and vulnerable feedback (if you've read my blog you know I'm willing to lay my crap out there just as much as my successes, maybe more) and maybe even a few of the questions you wonder about or the topics you wish were covered better. Let's all improve soulpreneurship, one blog comment at a time! THANKS!
Finding freedom in choices, balance and FUN. Breaking a few rules to things the way that my heart tells me (but nothing illegal!) and sharing the honest journey of a soul that wants to make the world a better place starting with myself.
I'm not a soulpreneur, but I appreciate your honesty and openness. I think that in general people tend to pretend like they have it all together even when their worlds are falling apart. I think it's partly a safety mechanism (it's hard to be vulnerable all the time), and partly cultural.
