Get in babies, we're 💜✨making it magic✨💜

In EVERY single Law of Attraction run-down, there’s a specific rule that I have always hated: Taking massive action.

Like, no thank you? If I wanted to take massive action in my life, then why would I need this book on manifestation?? Manifestation is supposed to help me get the things I want without having to do the work to reach my goals!!

When I started working on the project @BigWorthEnergy, though, I FINALLY learned the value of this particular concept and why it’s so vital.

I have spent a LOT of my life stuck in perfectionistic procrastination, sitting on projects until I felt like they were perfect enough to launch. Only, they were never perfect enough to launch: There was always something else popping up that I needed to add or create or polish.

And then I’d get frustrated, because I was doing all this work behind the scenes and yet nothing in my life was changing. Wasn’t I taking action??

In a sense, no. I was creating movement, which is what we’re doing when we convince ourselves that planning our strategy, organizing our files, or queuing our IG posts is the same as publishing new content, sending out that email, or launching a new course.

But since movement was keeping me busy, I kept telling myself that I was doing enough. Then I’d wait for things to start showing up in my life, and I’d get SO annoyed when they didn’t. I kept waiting for my life to change, for big things to happen, for manifestations to come through…and instead, it would be crickets.

That changed last November, when I decided to launch @BigWorthEnergy before I was ready. It was scary, and NOTHING was ready. I hit publish on that intro post and then spent the next few weeks trying to play catch-up on every single front. If I hadn’t done it that way, though, I probably would still be waiting to launch that project.

So then I started to think about all the other ways in which I was holding myself back because I was convinced I wasn’t ready to move forward.

Babies, my intuitive business was one of them.

I didn’t yet have a biz name I was 100% sold on, my website was still a mess, and I had so many different ideas for offerings I wanted to create and topics I wanted to write about that I got overwhelmed every time I even thought about it.

And none of that has changed! I’ve come to realize that maybe I’m not 100% sold on the name, branding, or strategy yet because I’m not supposed to be. If I know anything, it’s that messages and signs are sometimes just pebbles along the path instead of end game. Maybe this is supposed to be a work in progress. I’ll either fall in love with my biz name or it will lead to a better one; I’ll either polish my current branding design or hire someone who is much smarter at this stuff than me to create a new one. Who cares! It’s not like it’s going in the Smithsonian - I can change it whenever the f/ck I want!

So instead of waiting until I feel like everything is perfect, I’m putting my money where my considerably-foul mouth is and taking action on a lot of things I’ve been meaning to do for months, including this biz.

Because after all:

If you want the energy of your life to change, then you have to actually do something to change your energy.

Do You Have a Referral?

As a member of the We Should All Be Millionaires Club (did you know? As women, we all really should be), there is often a LOT of discussion in the Club about figuring out who your ideal client is and how to find them. Not to be smug about it, but I can’t relate: I already know who my ideal clients are, and they’re reading this right now (psst: that’s you!).

Great people know great people, and because of you, a veritable miracle has occurred with this business: Almost my entire business had been built exclusively by referral. No marketing, no ads, no psychic fairs…just the raddest ladies in the land sending their friends over for a reading.

So to say thank you, I’m upping the ante on my referral program (I’ve got an official spreadsheet and everything!):

Now, when you directly refer someone to me for a reading (make sure they’re mentioning your name when they book!!!), instead of $5 off your next reading, I’ll send you an email with a personalized code for $15 off any session of your choice.

These codes are buildable, so you can either cash them in right away or keep stacking them up for a free session (I’ll send you a new code with each additional referral)…totally up to you!

Bonus: When you refer me to followers on social media via posts, FB Group comments, IG Stories, etc, send me a screenshot of the shout-out and I’ll send you a code for $30 off your next reading. This is a total build-a-bear code, too - the more you do, the more you get.

New Offering: Quarter Readings

I love planning out my year with a year-long reading by finding out what the big themes of the next 12 months will be. 6-month readings are even more fun, because you get to narrow the scope and dive a bit deeper into what’s coming up for you. But Quarter Readings? Get outta town with all that deep-dive three-month realness!

Quarter Readings focus the current three-month quarter you’re living in, and will give you deep insight into what those months will look for you…and better yet, how you can get the most of them.

Right now, Q1 Readings for January, February, and March are available until the end of January (and then they close until 2022); Q2 readings for April, May, and June will kick off in March and will be available until the end of April (and so on).

You can schedule all four Quarter Readings in advance…and, as mentioned above, if you act fast, you can lock them all in before my rates go up!

What I’ve been loving lately:

Astro-Biz Digest :: Theresa Reed

Rachel Rodgers mentioned Theresa Reed in a recent podcast, noting that her friends had told her that Theresa is never wrong. So obviously, I had to sign up for her Astro-Digest. And you know what? She hasn’t been wrong yet.

New Moon Astrology by Jan Spiller

I used to be suuuuper into new + full moon stuff, and then I sort of fell off it. This book, recommended by the above-mentioned Theresa Reed, got me WAY back on my new moon bullshit again.

Star-Powered Brand by Leslie Tagorda

Leslie is in the We Should All Be Millionaires Club with me, and I love her stuff. This book is no exception!

CHANI app

If you haven’t gotten You Were Born For This by Chani Nicholas yet, my bb - you are missing out on a book that could literally change your life (you will want the hardcover vs the ebook, as you’ll be doing a lot of referencing throughout). Her app is a perfect compliment to it, and it is SO GOOD.

2021’s Numerology Forecast by Jackie Bateman

Jackie’s Numerology Forecasts are sooooooo goooooood. She did one for me last year and I finally ended up just hanging it on my fridge because I kept referencing it so often. They’re detailed and personalized, and you’ll love the insight they give you into what’s coming up for you this year. Get yours here.

The Numerology Guidebook by Michelle Buchanan

Speaking of Numerology, if you’re curious about what all this math is and why it matters, I HIGHLY recommend this book. I love it so much - it’s been so helpful to break down the numbers in my life and figure out how - THROUGH THE POWER OF SIMPLE ARITHMETIC! - to bring more of what I want into it.

Until next time -
