Full Episode Transcript:

[00:00:00] In this episode, you will discover the three essentials for thriving naturally in business, finding those right conditions for you. That will bring you from push-pull energy into a full body. Yes. Welcome to The Uncommon Way where high achieving women, entrepreneurs and leaders niche the rule book and design success on their own terms.

I'm your host, Jenna Harrison, a top ranked business coach sharing business growth strategies of mindset, mastery, and power moves to help you attract ideal clients, a leverage your unique genius and scale with freedom. Let's dive in. Welcome, welcome back to the Uncommon Way. We went on the funnest excursion the other night.

It was a restaurant sampling experience in Palma, and it was set up so cool because you would go with people you'd never met before and you'd sit around and you'd have an appetizer and a glass of wine, and then after an hour time would be up and you'd go to the next restaurant that was on your map.

And you'd meet up with totally different people and have your main course and a [00:01:00] glass of wine, and then there was a dessert following as well. So you got to interact with all of these different people and try all of these fantastic restaurants. Oh my gosh. They were so good. And at one of the tables, someone asked me what I did, and I decided to use one of my favorite methods that I have for networking rather than just saying, oh, I'm a business coach.

I try to create a more memorable experience for people. So I was talking about the idea of right conditions, which I've spoken about on this podcast in the last episodes, but really the essentials of what goes into making that possible. And all three, there were three other entrepreneurs at the table, all of them lean forward and they were like, tell me more about that.

I think I need that. And right then and there, of course, I knew. That other people must wanna hear about it too. There's no way I can have three people there and not have someone else in the world that really needs to hear that. So [00:02:00] this is going to be a very fun episode. I'm gonna talk about those three essentials, those three core essentials of creating the right conditions that naturally allow you to thrive naturally and sustainably, right, that you can keep going with it.

Like an olive tree that thrives naturally for thousands of years in the right environment. You'll also hear about how one of my clients potentially grew her wealth by $27 million through one conversation with the right people. And why push-pull energy is the number one hidden force keeping women entrepreneurs from experiencing both success and ease and how resolving it changes everything.

So let's get into it, shall we? The first thing that needs to happen, and I'm going to stick with the nature metaphors here. You really need to do the weeding. You need to remove what doesn't nourish you, and that seems pretty common sense, but it is [00:03:00] amazing how often women will prioritize other things rather than doing this basic thing first.

I imagine it, I don't know. I don't know a lot about gardening, but I imagine it like trying to get all these fancy nets around the bush that you're growing and all of these like splints that'll help it grow straight and all the perfect organic insecticide. I guess that's an oxymoron, isn't it? And you doing all these things, but meanwhile, there are all of these weeds that are just choking it at the roots, right?

Choking out all of the nutrients, and you haven't even addressed that. So in our world, those weeds look like things like mindset blocks, limiting beliefs, but also the static that our own resistance that gets in the way of us receiving. And I know you know about mindset blocks and limiting beliefs, and in fact, I've been speaking about them in the past episodes recently a lot because they are so important.

But so is the last thing I [00:04:00] mentioned, the the static and the resistance. Because the question is, are you sending mixed signals to your own future? Most women are, they're asking for growth with their words, right? But then unconsciously they're blocking it with their energy. So it's like someone on a date saying, come closer.

Come closer with one hand, but then the other hand to say, not too close. That push-pull energy really confuses the universe. It confuses your clients, confuses opportunities that may or may not be right for you. Are they're not sure. Are you the one or are you not The one? Should they go onto someone else?

And it even confuses your own brain, right? Your energy has to be a full body. Yes. And until you resolve that push pull, you're always gonna feel like you're hustling harder than you should be. So in a recent episode that we'll link to, I talked about my client, Lindy, who came to me saying she really wanted to clear up space in her calendar so that she could expand her [00:05:00] chain of stores.

But deep down, she really didn't want to take that kind of leadership on because she felt like she was so much better kind of being in the weeds and she didn't wanna fail. And we see this all the time. I'm sure you've experienced it. I have definitely experienced it. And often it's based on some kind of belief that we just, it has somehow lodged in our brain that it's true.

And that's just the way, it's one of my most recent clients also wants to expand her business, but she's worried that it's just gonna require so much of her, right. So much energy that she just doesn't have to give. And that push, pull energy has really been holding her back. I had a client named Crystal who really wanted to exit the industry that she loved so much, which was health and wellness coaching, because she had convinced herself that it was so hard to work with clients in that field because you were always having to drag them along to the results that they say they wanted.

But it [00:06:00] turns out that wasn't true. But we can see why. If your brain thinks it's true, of course you're not gonna pursue growth in that industry. I helped her to create some clear decisions about who she wanted to work with, and then go out and really capture the language of those kinds of people, and that way build evidence in her mind that those people really existed, and then she could lean in with this really clear choice, clear decision energy.

Book out her group program in one go with really aligned clients. Now, full transparency. I'm not saying it's always like that. I'm not saying you make one clear decision and all of a sudden you get booked out. But honestly, it has happened to me and it has happened to clients of mine. And so I do think it's important to at least show what's possible.

And because I know how important it is to see what's possible. I make really strategic decisions about what I'm asking clients to do based on what I know their growth [00:07:00] area is. So for instance, when I held a retreat for the Clarity Collective, we went to a luxury resort in Mexico and it was all inclusive.

They were waited on hand and foot. It was the most delicious, I was about to say decadent, but I guess it was decadent, but it was also just delirious delicious experience. For a lot of us women who are used to giving and giving and giving and not receiving it created some friction. It's like, oh, is this really right for me to live this way?

Is this really okay? Should I feel guilty? Is it too much? Is maybe the other shoe gonna drop if I'm, is it fair for other people to not live this way and for me to live this way? And it, it was an amazing. Relaxing retreat, but it also kicked up a lot of resistance on purpose so that we could clear that static and allow them to move into that life because they all wanted that life, but they also all didn't want that life.

You get me? [00:08:00] Right? And that leads really well into the second essential, which is expanding your pot. Again, I'm sticking with the nature metaphor. But often when you buy a plant at the nursery that's just flourishing with flowers, it's because it has reached its full potential in that pot, but then it can start to wither when you get home and it's because it just needs a bigger pot.

Now the roots need more room to expand and grow. And for us, unfortunately, we keep ourselves in these smaller pots in environments that don't really serve us in ideas about what we can and can't create. It's not our fault, it's just that we haven't been exposed to broader ideas. We haven't been exposed to a group of people who are all making seven figures and therefore it's easy for you to do the same or who did it this way, and therefore they know that you can absolutely do it that way.

You've never even considered that way. You've been knocking your head against [00:09:00] the wall over here trying to do things this way. Again, we think we're swimming in an ocean of possibilities, but actually we're in a fishbowl inside the ocean, and that fishbowl is our mind and it keeps us going round and round and round with how we think things need to be.

Once my mastermind was having a conversation about our five-year vision, and one of the women shared that she thought about selling her business and she kind of looked at us a little shyly and she said, and I'm thinking I might wanna sell it for like $3 million. And we all stopped and immediately told her, no, no, no, no, no.

That was bananas because it was already earning almost seven figures a year. So why would you sell something where the lifetime value is obviously so much higher than the price you're selling it for? And right then we said, we see something more like 30 million. Obviously that was completely new. Blew her mind.[00:10:00]

But she was able to acclimate to it in her body and within a month or so she was, that's what her goal was. That's what she was starting to talk to people about and that's what started feeling natural for her. And therefore, there was no way she was going to sell that amazing business for 3 million.

Maybe you all are like me, that you used to have a corporate career and everyone around you just thought that you should be happy with that. Maybe there was that little voice in you saying, but there must be more to life than this, right? There must be more. My potential must be bigger than this. But at the time, I had never heard of coaching.

I had never heard of any business where you didn't need to get a loan for capital to open it. Therefore, it didn't even occur to me. My pot was just too small for too long. I was like, I knew I wanted a business where somehow I could travel the world and be location independent. Did that mean I needed to be a travel agent?

I just couldn't figure out the [00:11:00] pieces. But if I'd had someone that could say, Hey, look, you know, this is absolutely possible for you, or I'd had a group of friends that were already living it and or working towards it themselves. My life would've been very, very different, and I would've started this business a decade sooner.

Absolutely. Hands down. And the third essential. I couldn't really think of a gardening metaphor for this. You let me know if you think of something, okay. But it's really leaning into your uncommon way, aligning with who you are. An olive tree doesn't try to be an apple tree, right? Nature isn't hustling to make things happen.

It is abundant, right? It thrives naturally by being exactly what it is. And it also never says to the tree next to it, oh no, no, no, you take the water because I don't want the water. I heard that from a coach once. I thought it was so profound. 'cause so many of us do that unconsciously. But nature just [00:12:00] receives abundantly and it gives abundantly being exactly who and how it is.

So will you. Trying to be the apple tree, that's the hard route. What you were given is exactly what you need to do your best work and live your best life. So what is your uncommon way? What are those gifts and what are those needs? What are the daily conditions you need so that you can tune in? When you know who you really are, what your secret sauce is, and then you have strong clean decision energy around what you wanna create, who your best fit clients are, who you wanna work with, what you're moving towards right now, how big you want your business to be.

That is when everything moves. Back to what I was saying, right about this push pull energy. Your energy, it's like a magnet. And if part of you is pulling in and then the other part's pushing away, everything's polarized. Nothing sticks. [00:13:00] But again, when it's Oh, so decisive. Right. And when it's just this full body, yes.

Both consciously and subconsciously, you easily attract what you've been waiting for. If not, if it's muddled in consistent energy, you tend to get muddled in consistent results, which is where the majority of people unfortunately, spend their lives. Like I've had several clients who just really undervalue the things that come really easily to them.

And so they're convinced that that can't be the thing that they should be honing in on or selling or talking about. It's so evident to people around them who can see what a special trait that is that they have, or a special skill that they have. But I suppose it's just human to undervalue what seems so normal to us.

I can't describe how amazing these olive trees are around here, like the swirls and curls around these. Ancient trunks of these trees and [00:14:00] how they formed. It's just mesmerizing to me. I'm gonna, I'll post pictures in my stories this week of some of them, an olive tree. Were like, no, no, no, but I really wanna be like an apple tree.

It would just seem so unfortunate. That's the best word. I can come up with such an unfortunate waste of who it is and what it was given and what it's really here to be. So in this episode, you've learned about the three essentials for thriving naturally in business, really creating those right conditions for you.

The first is about weeding things out, doing the weeding, and hopefully, you know, I do have a very special offer, which is a seven week reset for anything that you think might fit in this category for you. Any mindset block, any limiting belief. Any static that you have that's blocking your way to receiving, let's clear that out.

The second essential is [00:15:00] expanding your pot, getting around other people that can help you see bigger, and I forgot to mention that it's actually a skill you can build as well, to think thoughts you haven't thought before, to stretch your own mind in that way, and that kind of skill building is really more appropriate for my mastermind program, the Clarity Accelerator.

And then obviously in that same program, the main focus is leaning into your uncommon way, but whether you choose to do this work with me, with my clients, or on your own or with somebody else, those are the three essentials. Weeding out what doesn't nourish you, expanding your pot way beyond what seems currently likely or possible for you.

And then aligning with who you are, leaning into your uncommon way and owning that. I'm thinking about maybe releasing a guided meditation around these subjects. Those are so fantastic because when you are listening, your brain can't [00:16:00] do two things at once. And so when you're really absorbed and listening something, it allows a space, it allows an opening.

It helps you adopt those beliefs and create change more than when your normal brain is activating and you're thinking about all the but what ifs. But could it be, but wouldn't that mean that you know all the objections that come up in your brain to these new ways of thinking? I remember my coach when I was first starting out in business and I had so many different hangups.

She would create audios for me, and I would listen to those things. 24 7, well, obviously not 24, but my waking hours, walking the dog, washing the dishes, driving in the car. It was just all I was listening to make sure that my brain was just being bombarded by these new ways of thinking that I really desperately needed in order to clear the weeds, get rid of all of the gunk that just was not serving me.

So if you think that would be helpful for you based on what we've been talking about today, or you [00:17:00] can just relax into the thoughts about what you know to be true about you, about how close you really are, about how maybe those fears that you have or those worries, concerns you have are actually just static to your own receiving.

Just hop into my dms and let me know. Alright, my friend, have a wonderful rest of your week and let's talk again on Tuesday.
