Hello beautiful friend!!!

Okay so the coaching industry is blowing up with new people joining all sorts of premium level masterminds and as these spaces grow I can’t help but feel a little…angry.

Let me tell you, if I had come into a high level space, paying upwards of $20k six years ago I would have failed, not just financially, but on a personal level too. Because here’s the thing, I had a shit ton of trauma that I had yet to clear, and being in that unhealed phase would have ensured that my ego would have been running the show, calling the shots and ultimately running me into the ground along with it.

Because here’s the truth, you cannot build something from your soul when your ego is running the show. You cannot feel 100% aligned, in power, able and confident in your abilities as a mentor when you’re so wrapped up in egoic perceptions of the world born of your past experience of life (i.e. traumas!).

So when you follow a mentor who’s built a business without fully healing from her past (because she was either born happy, joyous and free OR she built the damn thing but also damn near burned it down in her angst after realizing money did not in fact, buy her happiness - I’ve had mentors who fit both molds) it’s so easy for your ego to get wrapped up in the idea that she’s your ticket to making this whole thing work without looking at your addictions, abuse, abandonment issues, mental illness, etc. You end up outsourcing your precious energy to yet another outside “fix” and in turn you receive little more than confusion, self doubt, and ultimately the idea that this calling was never yours to begin with (once you’ve been worn down long enough to believe that atrocious lie).

There’s a better way. And it starts with undiluted, focused healing.

Listen for all the deets on how you can avoid this impending scenario that is and will affect so many soul-called healers and mentors. To heal others we must first heal ourselves. And it is completely possible.

Xo,

Dana

EP 26: How to Raise Your Prices with Confidence and Attract Clients Who Are Ready to Pay w/ Kat Cynewski

The most consistent challenge that crops up with my clients is learning to let go.

To let go of the thought that you know what's best, even in situations that involve loved ones...

To let go of the fears of what people think of you, not being good enough, not having control, and not getting your way.

To let go of the destructive, yet constant thought that if other people did things your way, life would be better for all involved.

Coming from the old spokeswoman of "I need to control everything to be happy" (yours truly) I know firsthand that your ability to (genuinely) let go will directly correlate with your ability to show up, speak from the heart and feel completely aligned and powerFULL while doing so.

Listen to this Modern Day Healer podcast episode where I break down the spiritual mind healing process of letting go of the need to control so you can focus on being the golden vessel of Light you were always intended to be.

**Hitting multiple 5-figure months as an online mentor is 20% execution and 80% a healed mindset.

EP 25: Showing up powerfully in the face of real life sh*t & toxic people

Are you sitting behind your computer DIY-ing the ish out of your business, wishing there was an easier, faster way to hit those coveted 5-figure months - without burning out?

Well there is.

In today’s episode, I interview the incredible Abbi Miller, a holistic business coach and founder of Workwomb [http://www.workwomb.com/] and The Workwomb Podcast [https://www.workwomb.com/podcast-episode-notes/overcoming-revenue-challenges-biz-resilience].

We talk about the dangers of solopreneurship, the art of asking for support, and the fast(er) (and much more sustainable) track to success, inside and out.

If you’re ready to put the dark ages of doing it all on your own with not much to show for it behind you and to step into the light of supportive, holistic business magic, this episode is for you.

EP 24: From struggling solopreneur to multiple 6 figure CEO w/ Abbi Miller

This episode is a BTS look at how I  built the momentum it took to finally experience my first year of sold-out live events,  a HIGHLY successful launch of my first paid group offer, all while selling five-figure 1:1 spots and being a new mom again 🎉

My key takeaway from 2024 is to focus on your X-factor and let go of the rest.

Stop trying to be an expert in any field and instead focus on becoming a master of your own individuality -

watch how much more fresh, real, raw, messy, authentic, and COMPELLING your work becomes to those who want to be fully self expressed as well.

Show up as your true self, no matter what, and that quality of living WILL manifest itself in the quantitative, material form (money, clients...) as a natural bi-product.

I hope this episode helps you to embrace 2025 as your best year yet!!! 

All my love,

Dana

EP 23: Building the momentum to sell out live events, fill up group programs and easily sell 5-figure coaching packages 

Do you remember the initial surge of inspiration and energy you felt the first time you envisioned yourself becoming an online coach?

If it was anything like mine you probably felt a whirlwind of possibilities, knew there was literally no cap on the amount of people you could help, the money you could make, and most importantly the freedom for life you could experience as a result.

There are 100,000s of online coaches working their tails off to execute strategies and reverse engineer systems they see working for other successful coaches, praying in earnest for clients and yet, they come up with less than satisfactory results, for years.

It doesn’t have to be like this.

What if there was a way to escape the hamster wheel of trying and enter a new phase in your coaching career where not only is it easy to attract clients, but these clients are 1000% aligned with you and the vision you hold of a future that hasn’t happened yet?

What if you didn’t just have clients to have clients, or worse, to prove you can get clients, to prove you’re a success?

(If you feel triggered or called out, this is a good thing - many of us have shared this experience of graspiness in the beginning of building our businesses that comes from proving energy. This energy must be erased before moving on to the higher levels of vibration, consciousness, and energy necessary to attract the type of people who desire to experience life through the lens in which you see it and pay infinite amounts of money to do so - because it’s what they value most. This episode will help you do just that!)

What if you were able to recommit to your initial vision, the one where you’re doing meaningful work that makes enough money to allow you to experience the deep presence and relaxation throughout the rest of your life that consequently becomes the lifeblood of your actual business.

In this episode, Claudelle and I speak about our individual experiences with living in the remembrance of the initial surge of inspiration that surrounded the vision we first held for our online business and letting anything that doesn’t align fall away.

Remember your vision, why you started this business to begin with, remember the heightened consciousness that enveloped your being and recognize your job thereafter is to fully become the vibrational match to that initial excitement, enthusiasm and conviction in your path.

The rest is unnecessary and unhelpful. Your only job is to become the energetic signature of your initial vision of success, and the rest will come as a natural by-product.

Cannot wait for you to hear this one - it’s my favorite yet!

Ep 22: Stop crossing your fingers to get clients & tighten your grasp on the concrete energetics of calling them in instead w/ Claudelle Dorion

If you started your coaching business for freedom of time, the ability to travel where you want, be completely present with your family and live life on YOUR terms, your offers and their prices MUST reflect that desire.

Otherwise, how will this financial freedom that’s at the core of this physical freedom we’re discussing manifest??

You have to give it a path to follow, to materialize and become a physical reality, right?

Right.

This is where increasing your prices for your highest-level-of-access to your offers comes into play.

When you charge a small fee of $100-$300 for 1:1 time with you, not only are you eating up the time you could be spending creating more impactful programs for many people, but you’re also eating up your creative energy to do so.

This time-for-money trap also places a quick cap on the amount of money, and therefore spaciousness, liberation, and freedom you can create for yourself and others right out of the gate.

If you’re ready to escape this time for money trap, and offer higher level programs for higher level prices, this episode is for you.

In it we’ll explore what it takes to believe in yourself at the level necessary to sell these increased prices, where you might get stuck, and how to move forward so you can finally build the modern day healing business of your DREAMS and charge prices that make it so.

I can’t wait for you to listen to today’s episode, let’s dive in!!
