A couple days ago, I was in a live group coaching session in our membership program. A woman was asking me a very practical question about attracting clients. It all seemed very innocent until …
… in passing she says, “I found a new way of making videos where I don’t have to show my face. I can do a voiceover on top of footage because no one wants to see my face anyway.“
She continues on to her question.
I stop her, “W–wait a minute! Rewind. What did you just say?”
She looks at me with big, beautiful, unblinking eyes, caught off guard that I stopped her mid-sentence.
I continue, “Did I just hear you say that no one wants to see you on video?”
“Yes!” she exclaims.
“Where did you get that idea?”
She proceeds to admit she’s been doubting herself.
I hold silence as I look into her green, glinting eyes before sharing with her how much I personally loved watching her videos …
This is a young woman who had never even considered starting her own business. She came into our membership last year for herself, to raise her frequency, and feel more confident and alive.
Then, a few months into the membership, she discovers that – deep down – she wants to start her dream business, have the freedom to make her own schedule, and get paid to help people using her gifts.
We watched her go on an amazing journey of making videos, having breakthrough after breakthrough, finding her voice, feeling confident and joyfully being visible.
She even found her message & created a potent online course with me in Confident Course Creation School™. She was on fire!
I asked, “How did it feel for you when you were making videos, confident on camera, consistently sharing your authentic voice?”
Without hesitation, “Amazing!”
“And when you took CCCS, how did you feel when you were mining up and unearthing your valuable teachings, designing your program that can help others for years to come?”
“I felt powerful.” she says with a big smile beaming on her face.
Interesting …”But, I thought you said you no longer want your face on video. What happened?”
Silence.
I proceeded to tell her that there’s something every big-hearted soul who wants to brighten our world needs to know about …
It’s called UPPER LIMITS! This is a term coined by Gay Hendricks. It’s super sneaky, often hidden, and it’s very REAL!
Upper Limits are ultimately a cap on how good you’re willing to feel. When things get too good, Upper Limits will lead most people to self-sabotage.
I asked her and I ask you now …
How good are you willing to feel?
How much pleasure are you willing to experience?
How much confidence are you willing to allow for yourself?
I hold her gaze, “Because what I hear is that you reached an Upper Limit. You reached a point where things got so good that you had to talk yourself down from there because it felt like it was too much.”
She starts crying, nodding in agreement.
“Do you know when you stopped allowing yourself to feel good?”
Her eyes widen, accessing something deeper, “I have this belief inside that if I feel too good, someone will die.”
BOOM!
There it is.
Through further facilitation, she was able to look within herself at the innocent misunderstanding her younger self made after a painful life experience.
I share this with you because we all have our own versions of vows we’ve unconsciously made that neurotically thwart a fully-lived life.
No matter how badly we want something, if we don’t uncover and clear our energetic blocks, it will be very difficult to go beyond them.
The good news is that …
Just like this glorious soul, you’ve got amazing potential inside of you that you were born to actualize. Life’s creative impulse is on your side!
You’ve got power, confidence, pleasure, joy, fulfillment, wisdom, wealth untapped & bursting from within wanting to come into manifestation in your life …
But, without brave action and consistently clearing our energetic blocks, Upper Limits will continue to pin us down, leading to a life LESS than what we know we’re capable of.
And I know firsthand, how painful this can feel.
I also know how beautiful it is to be set free into a well-lived life.
With all of this said …
I invite you to reflect on your Upper Limits this week.
I also invite you to own how magical, powerful, & capable you are.
I believe you have unique gems of wisdom planted within you that you were born to share & that you are one-of-a-kind AMAZING … which is why I share these love letters, videos, & audios with you… to help you remember.
