Becoming Someone Who Trusts Themselves and Their Words
The Energy of Your Message with Sarah Lucille
We're talking about the practice of self-trust and at least three areas it shows up when you're tapping into your boldest messaage and what you came here to say. Even before ChatGPT, the most common question people had about marketing themselves was "what's the best way to say this?" But, ChatGPT doesn't do a very good job at digging much deeper than what you already know...or what can be taken from elsewhere. This is especially for those with a big message that helps people heal. You could be a wellness practitioner, healer, yoga instructor, artist, therapist, life coach,...

When Building an Aligned Business Feels Hard Before It Feels Easier
The Energy of Your Message with Sarah Lucille
When you've followed your passion or chosen yourself and, at first, it feels harder... In today's podcast episode, I'm naming something that came up again and again in December for me, for clients, and for so many founders I spoke with behind the scenes. The question: “How do I make this work long term?” Even deeper than that: "Is it always going to feel this hard?" In this episode, you’ll hear: Why doing the aligned thing for you can initially feel harder than staying in familiar (but draining) patterns How those patterns of hustle, status, and “making it work” get mistaken for...

The Cost of Being Yourself in Business (And, It's Worth It)
The Energy of Your Message with Sarah Lucille
"I want to make my message feel more like me...and I want to repel the right people and also attract the right people." I love this question and it's something I get to dive into with a client this week. AND, I wanted to bring it to the podcast to share something that you won't hear many talking about in the messaging and copywriting space: There is a cost to being yourself in business. But, yeah, it's worth it. It's not just time, money, or even mindset. When you make a bold declaration about what you want, and you really mean it and are ready to own it, anything...

Legacy Message Part 3: What You’ve Been Afraid to Own is What Makes You Magnetic
The Energy of Your Message with Sarah Lucille
The part of you that certain mentors couldn’t handle and that systems tried to silence is exactly what makes your message magnetic. When your greatest gifts weren't always well received, it makes sense to tuck them away. When you bring depth and curiosity and intuition into spaces that rely on you and others settling into the status quo, and chasing standardized ways of living, you'll meet resistance. You're a disrupto. But, that's kind of the good news now. When you challenge the status quo, you're shifting paradigms. And, that's the kind of messaging that makes a difference. It's...

In today's climate, now more than ever, there's a reason it's so important for the creative and spiritual folks to really find their own words right now.

When You Have to Choose Between “It’s Business” & the Integrity of Your Message
The Energy of Your Message with Sarah Lucille
How do you stay in integrity with your message when you need to sell? We're going to talk about what happens when we abandon ourselves as creatives in the name of "business." We'll get into: Why "do people want this?" can start to erode the integrity of your message when you're a creative When you might be self-abandoning and how to come back to yourself and the purpose and depth of the message you're here to share Why you don't need everyone to understand your message or what you're creating right now Do an integrity check with your own message and work and why it...
info_outline"I want to make my message feel more like me...and I want to repel the right people and also attract the right people."
I love this question and it's something I get to dive into with a client this week.
AND, I wanted to bring it to the podcast to share something that you won't hear many talking about in the messaging and copywriting space: There is a cost to being yourself in business.
But, yeah, it's worth it.
It's not just time, money, or even mindset.
When you make a bold declaration about what you want, and you really mean it and are ready to own it, anything that has been lingering around in your life that contradicts that version of you will make itself really loud.
And, your tolerance for it will feel a LOT different from before.
This is all an important part of the process of BECOMING someone who actually says and does the thing.
It's not for everyone.
But, if you're here and listening to this, or even a little interested, I have a feeling you're in the right place for you.
I'll be breaking down the 2 really important energetic shifts that happen when you're ready to step into your boldest self-expression yet.
Then, I'll get into a Future Self exercise that takes this well beyond mindset or habit changing.
If you know you have a real, timely and timeless message to share and that it's imperative you finally do it bravely and without holding back (no matter what others say or think), then this is where I'd begin.
Everything I'm teaching today is part of the 6 month mentorship program, Energy of Your Message, where I work with you to get into the energy of your boldest Self and your boldest message yet so you can creatively bring that into everything you put out there: your emails, podcast, books, program materials, and marketing.
You're not a boring joe schmoe marketing bro, so why market like one?
