EXPECTATIONS
~ ONWARD ~ with Carolyn Herfurth
If you’ve ever set a big lofty goal and worked your ass off to make it happen (only to end up disappointed)... be sure to tune into this episode where I dish on my bullshit around expectations — and how I continue to burn the BS around this topic. Full show notes over at
info_outlinePop quiz time, listeners! What are some of the things you might do when you feel broken?
- One minute, you’re shocked that a coach would have the balls to charge you $40k… and the next, you’re brainstorming on how to scrounge up that $40k
- You do this even as you can’t afford to put gas in your car — but you’re utterly, thoroughly done being broke
- Despite all your instincts, you find yourself buying into a cycle of verbally abusive marketing techniques
- All of the above
If these feel familiar to you, congratulations! You’re in good company with my guest today. Angella Johnson has transformed herself into a messaging and marketing genius despite the guru coaches who tried to steer her towards cookie cutter solutions… and even told her that nobody would ever pay for what she actually wanted to offer.
Well, the joke’s on them, because Angella is killing it. Using the Intuitive Marketing Method, she guides entrepreneurs towards making great money doing the work they love. Known for her simple yet game changing techniques and her authentic vulnerability, Angella is all about working with intuition — not fear.
But fear is exactly how the guru coaches got their hooks into Angella.
“I felt broken, like I needed to get somebody who knew more than I did because I was only making a few hundred dollars a month. I saw a video on Facebook by a guru coach and I was mesmerized. I was so desperate to make money that I was ready to try things anyone else's way — because my way clearly wasn't working.”
In this episode, Angella’s not holding back. You’ll hear all about:
- Why she felt like she was crashing as she approached multiple 6-figures in her business
- The slow realization that she’d built her business by perpetuating the very same “abuse” that made her feel like crap
- The importance of listening to and trusting the little voice that tells you when something isn’t 100% right
- How much better your business will be when you can say, and honor, the word “No.”
In the spirit of not acting like a guru coach myself, I’m not going to tell you that you have to listen to this episode. But I do encourage you to ask yourself, “Do I want to listen to an awesome podcast episode with a kick ass guest?” If the answer is yes, you’re in the right place.
