Interview with Lauren Joyce: The Art of Claiming Your Message

Hey gorgeous,

I have a very special message for you today. It’s an interview with my mastermind partner, Lauren Joyce. For the past few months, I’ve been coaching Lauren on claiming her true message (my favorite subject on earth). I MUST share her process with you because you’ll learn what it takes to claim your message from start to finish. Now that she’s clarified her message, her success has gone through the roof. I want this for you, too.

Just a month or two ago, Lauren remembered her purpose. She didn’t find it, she didn’t discover it out of thin air, she literally stopped trying, forcing, “shoulding” and doing, and remembered why she’s on earth to serve.

It’s to help women be magnetic! Specifically in the realm of dating.

Like most entrepreneurs, when we remember our soul’s mission and legacy, it can be terrifying. When we land inside our message that will change the world for the better, we will without a doubt experience resistance. Resistance from our own minds, the minds of others looking in, and even from the Universe.

We will be tested every single day, a test asking if we’re serious about remembering who we really are and what we came here to do.

You see, when we claim something this huge, our ego structure has no choice but to resist at first because our psyche is designed to keep us safe. But with enough mindset work, faith, effort, and the crystal clarity on your message, you will have NO choice but to succeed.

That’s why I want to share Lauren’s story with you.

The difference between Lauren and your average entrepreneur is that she stayed the course, kept believing, and kept risking. Through all the resistance, fear, and upset, she finally said YES to her call, and hasn’t given up.

When a woman remembers her message and truly claims it, the power of her message lifts her through every future roadblock. Procrastination, fear, emotional pain, and even criticism. Lauren has been so lit up by her message that she’s had no choice but to share it. That’s how light works.

When you turn your light switch on, your light has no where to go but OUT.  
When you spread your light, you’ll be seen, and the Universe will repay you for your service.

As a result of Lauren spreading her natural and authentic light, her business is functioning at the highest level it ever has. Her first month of marketing her TRUE message as a Dating & Lifestyle coach, she brought in $13k in sales. This is no joke. Her work became a graceful joy & privilege.

A little back story: Lauren’s magnetic message is different, edgy, and paradigm shifting. She teaches women how to flirt, date, and receive. Because her knowledge of the Feminine & Attraction oozes through her bones, it was almost too easy for her to coach on this subject at first, and that’s why she resisted this for so long.

That’s how it works for many service based entrepreneurs. We try and coach on what we think we’re supposed to coach on (a subject we think will sell), instead of looking within at what we’re meant to coach on. I know the pain of this dilemma first hand.

When we coach out of should, work becomes a chore. When we coach from our soul, work becomes an effortless contribution.

Today Lauren’s message oozes out of her, because it IS her. She isn’t faking it. She isn’t trying to be someone she’s not.

And it shows.

Watch this video to see what’s possible when you claim your message, too. This video will show Lauren’s evolution from stuck & unclear, to THRIVING & CERTAIN in her messaging.

You’ll also get a taste of what happens when I get my hands on your story- your message will be claimed, no question.

Back to you, sister. Wherever you’re at in your business, life, or messaging, trust that you’re on the right path. You’re exactly where you’re meant to be. Chances are you just have to stop trying so hard and just *see* it, the answer is right in front of your nose.

Thank you for watching, and know that I’m rooting for you and your message to emerge.

Love,
Chrissy

I’ll offer you the support you need to move forward in your messaging with grace and ease, just like Lauren. Schedule your discovery call with me  so I can personally mentor you through your blocks that are blinding you of your purpose. Your message is right around the corner.

How to Make an Empowered Decision (without the torture!)

Hey Gorgeous,

Have you ever felt so conflicted between two possible decisions that you’ve lost yourself in the process?

I’ve been there… For the past month!

I’ve been feeling super conflicted lately. I’ve had an important decision to make and felt tortured by my confusion. For some reason, I couldn’t land inside an answer that felt right.

My confusion was getting the best of me. 

To save you some time, I want to share my personal Decision Process with you. This process doesn’t have to take a month. You could very well find your answer in a couple of days- even an hour!

The key is growing your “internal trust muscle” which transforms your confusion into clarity. I posted this video on Friday on my Business Page, and it received so much attention that I had to share it with you too.

Did anything open up for you after watching this video? Comment below, I’d love to hear from you.

Love,
Chrissy

P.S. Decisions don’t have to be torture. Hop on the phone with me and I’ll help you distinguish your truth from the lie. It’s easier than you think!

Your Feminine Leadership Is Needed NOW

If you’ve been following the news, you’ve probably noticed the trouble we’re in as a planet now. War, Terrorism, Homophobia, Racism, Sexism, Political Anger, Hatred, Murder… Just to name a few.

The root of every single one of these dehumanizing issues is FEAR. The cause is fear. The effect is fear.

Do you know the antidote for fear? It’s not love, it’s not courage…

It’s creation. We must create a new paradigm for love, healing, and freedom to emerge, and the greatest creators are Women. The Feminine is, after all, synonymous with creation.

There’s a reason the Dalai Lama called on women to lead when he said,  “The world will be saved by the Western woman.” He said this in 2009, and it’s 2016 now. We can’t afford to wait any longer.

The Feminine must step up.  Every archetype of woman is needed now. The midwife, the maiden, the little girl, the activist, the warrior, the teacher, the mother, the venus, the wise woman, and especially, the wild woman. Your voice must be unleashed without fear, without hesitation, and without any more excuses.

The work I do with women leaders like you, is to help you remember the purpose you were born with so you never search outside yourself for answers again. When your mission is remembered, the difference you desire to make in the world can finally unfold because your fear disappears inside a purpose that’s bigger than you.  Your anxiety turns into excitement. Your worry transforms into conviction. Your doubt becomes unwavering faith.

That’s why I’m dedicating all of July to your FREEDOM as a woman leader with discounted coaching to get your message out of your trapped body and into the world. 

I’m clear now that my duty as a wild woman woman entrepreneur isn’t to break a new income goal month after month, it’s to serve you and help you unleash your specific message to heal the world. Your impact is what I care about most.

Why? Because our planet is crying out for transformation that only you can create and deliver.

Your gifts have been summoned, are you ready to listen?
>>> Schedule Your Call With Me Now

Now, now, I hear that voice in your head telling you that now isn’t the time. “Who am I to be a leader? Who am I to make a difference?” Well, as Marianne Williamson says, “Who are you not to be?”

The only missing piece between you and your impact is clarity. Clarity on who you are and what you came here to do. You have the experience, you have the power, you have the resources, now all you need is your message.

You and I both know that you can’t afford to sit around on your purpose any longer. You’ve read enough books, you’ve had enough life experience, there is no one stopping you but yourself from making a difference in this lifetime. Every article, book, or speech that has moved and inspired you has led you to this moment.

What if I told you that you could be that writer? You could be that speaker? You could be that inspiration that men & women are literally on their knees praying for now to learn from?!

>>> Schedule Your Call With Me Now

All you have to do is hop on the phone with me. On our call, we create the discounted transformational coaching experience for you to bring your purpose, message, and healing into the world now so fear never stops you again.

These packages will range from $1000-$3500, depending on your needs and desires. These are the lowest prices ever see me offer. It could be a one month long coaching journey, to 4 months with a Skype intensive in between.  We will create this possibility together.

I can’t wait for this experience with you, I’ll be here to answer any questions you have. Just hop on the phone with me.

Being Yourself (Not Matter What)

Hey sister,

Being our true selves can be tricky at times. It takes vulnerability to show up as who you really are because not everyone is going to like it.

On the flip side, if you show up as someone else, or hide your true colors from shining through, you’ll feel the greatest pain a woman will ever experience: your own self-betrayal.

This past week I decided to show up as my true self no matter what.

This video will show you what I learned and experienced from showing up as ME, even when it hurt.

I share the good, the bad, and the ugly side of showing up as a leader today, because we truly have no other choice but to be real and speak up for what we believe in. Some people will hate it, but that’s a good thing.

Hope this short and sweet message served you today. Know that I’m in your corner as you bring your message to the world. If my story resonated with you today, or you need any support around similar experiences that you’ve had around speaking up and being yourself, reply to this email and I’ll personally write you back.

love,
Chrissy

What To Do When You’re Feeling Depressed

Dear one,

If you ever find yourself feeling sad or depressed I have a checklist is for you. It’s what I turn to when dark, heavy feelings try to interfere with my sense of aliveness and productivity.

Trust me when I say this, I was in it last week. I felt the very familiar feeling of depression and to be quite honest, it SUCKED. In full transparency, I still go down dark spirals, but the difference between Chrissy now and Chrissy 10 years ago is that I leverage those dark emotions to my advantage today.

I have a recipe for moving through the pain. (Hint: It’s in the pain.)

If you click the video below, you’ll hear how I deal with depression in real time so you can be more productive and effective without losing yourself completely to the dark hole.

I must lovingly disclaim that none of my advice is meant to replace seeing a Doctor or Psychiatrist. If you are on prescription medication for a psychological disorder I honor what you need to do without ANY judgment. Prescription medication was not right for me, but it might be right for you, in which case, THANK YOU for taking responsibility for your health and happiness. 

How do you deal with dark times and get back in the game? Share with me by commenting below.  I’d love to hear your ideas.

All my love to you,
Chrissy

P.S. The Wild Woman Entrepreneur can’t afford to let depression take her out of the game. She must leave her paradigm shifting mark on the planet now. My Wild Woman Entrepreneur Private Coaching program will help you transform your self defeating patterns and crippling emotions into more productivity, clarity, and power. Find out more below because I’m only taking on TWO MORE private clients this month.

My Response to the World Right Now

Screen Shot 2016-06-14 at 4.39.17 PMHey gorgeous,

Have you ever needed a break to come undone? To chill? To rest? To cry? I made the choice to stay away from email for the past week and a half, and let me tell you, it was hard. In the back of my head I heard this voice yell, “YOU MUST BE CONSISTENT, YOU HAVE TO STAY CONNECTED TO YOUR COMMUNITY OR YOU WILL FAIL!”

Luckily I know better than to listen to that voice of fear.

Instead, I trusted my deeper wisdom and chose to disconnect from this platform so I could reconnect to myself. 

I’ve recently returned from a 5 week adventure across Bali and Western Australia. I landed on US Soil on Sunday night and felt in my empathic ways the trouble that my country is in as a Nation (without even turning on my phone). Sure the jet lag might have had something to do with my hyper sensitive emotions, plus the culture shock of returning from a blissed out adventure on the most feminine island in the world, but I felt something pretty painful when I landed inside a nation that was angry, mourning, or even worse, ignoring. I had no choice but to feel the pain of loss.

There are times when we should work, and there are times when we have to mourn. I chose to mourn.

You see, the US has been through A LOT this past month. A primary election that has called forth ugliness and competition all over social media and the news. Sentencing a rapist to only 6 months in jail, bringing to light the ways in which rape culture and white privilege are still working to silence survivors of sexual violence. Then, the Orlando Attack of hatred which killed 49 people inside a space where the LGBTQ community was supposed to feel free and safe. I’m not even counting the thousands of lives who are traumatized and suffering from Post Traumatic Stress as a result of this kind of hate.

Because of these events, I couldn’t go on with business as usual…
And that’s okay.

This kind of madness leaves a collective wound on all of our hearts, whether we’re conscious to it or not. A scar that will harden us over time if we don’t offer it healing balm now.

The healing balm we need now more than ever is love. Love is always the answer, it is always the way through. Love is an unlimited source of energy. When we share our love with others we don’t lose any love, it only expands and multiplies in power.

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the Shadow. Shadows function and thrive in the dark. When fear, hatred, jealousy, sexual desire, rage, and anger are suppressed or hidden, and not offered the loving space to be explored or talked about, they will own us. When they’re pushed down or ignored, they WILL find a way out in secondary, sideways ways. Ways in the most extreme cases that are violent; ways that terrorize, rape, and kill.

I wish I had a tangible call to action. I wish I could offer some words of inspiration for the world during these times. All I have is this.

The healing starts with us.
Peace begins with you.
The narrative will change when you change the narrative. 

My hope and prayer today is that every classroom, workplace, and home has the space to process these events. The safe space to process their own shadows, their own shame, their own hate, their own pain, their own anger. And of course, I hope there’s the space to share about love. The love that will always prevail if we let it. The love that leads us when we’re broken.

Then, when the time is right and appropriate, I wonder if we can offer our enemies some love too. I wonder, if maybe… just maybe, we’ll see those enemies were children once, who just wanted to belong. Children who wanted to be heard, seen, and loved. Children who were dealt some shitty lessons and developed damaging tools for living because their basic needs were never met.

I’m not justifying any killer or abuser’s actions, I’m just asking for a new conversation. A new listening. A new hope.

I’m not saying that time is now. I’m not even saying that this is possible. But in my process now I’m committing to ending the discourse of us vs. them and instead only using the word we.  Because at the end of the day, we’re all on the same planet now with the same beating hearts, the same color blood, and the same color tears. This is the only ounce of hope that is getting me by today. I don’t know if this will last, but I’m going to hold on as long as I can.

That’s my message for you today. I have nothing but my brokenness to offer you, and if you’re feeling broken too, I’m here to share your pain.

I’ll see you on the other side, because no feeling is permanent, that I know for sure.

All my love,
Chrissy

How to Feel at Home Wherever You Are in the World

There comes a time, when it’s, just… Time.

Time to speak up. Time to make a video longer than 3 minutes. Time to share the truth despite the discomfort it will bring up inside those who listen. Time to be messy and blubbery. Time to be imperfect. Time to post a video without asking for anyone’s opinion or permission in advance.

Thoughts in my head:
“Is this brand suicide?”
“Will they judge me?”
“What she think?”
“What will HE think?”

I just caught myself writing the words, “I’m sorry for…” and I’m cutting that out now. I’m unapologetically sharing this video as a stand for all women and men who have secrets they’re ashamed to share aloud. I’m shining light on the darkness now, because it’s time.

Instead of “I’m sorry,” I want to say “Thank YOU,” dear sister. Thank you for hearing my story.

Here it is, “How to Feel At Home Wherever You Are In The World.”
A video describing my evolution as a traveler. How I’ve re-written my traumas and anxieties abroad into new stories of resilience and courage as a Wild Woman Entrepreneur.

I posted this video on my Facebook Biz page yesterday after 24 hours (and 9 years) of holding it in. The response has been breathtaking. The support out of the woodwork, the “shares” from complete strangers, and the women who are speaking up now as a result of hearing my story made me cry multiple times yesterday.

Being a Messenger is edgy, scary, and paradigm shifting. What I shared yesterday went against the status quo. I had so much physical, emotional, and mental resistance that I had to move through in order to hit “post,” but I was lifted by a force bigger than my brain, telling me that it was time. I didn’t want to share my story. It was a must. 

I spoke about a taboo that too many women on this earth are silenced by. I the ended silence yesterday in an effort to take back the night of every woman or man who didn’t have the strength, consciousness, or voice to say NO in the moment.

Did you know 1 in 4 women are date raped in the US? That number is horrifying, but the worst part is, that statistic only shows the number of cases reported to the police. Whatever shame you’re still carrying, sister, for anything that has happened to you in the past, I promise you you’re not alone. Healing is available. A new empowering story is available.

If you take a moment to really listen, you’ll notice a New Beginning tugging at your heart right now. Begging you to say YES to your power, strength, and purpose. Are you ready to say Yes?

I know you are.

There’s a pull in every woman’s heart for freedom. For me, I had to transform my pain into my purpose- that’s where I found it.

all my love and gratitude,
Chrissy

How To Feel Great About Your Body (in 20 minutes) When You Feel Like Shit and Don’t Want to Wear a Swimsuit in Public.

IMG_0168Hey from Bali, gorgeous!

Do you ever struggle with your body? Does the thought of wearing a swimsuit make you want to crawl into a hole? Maybe you tell yourself, “When I lose those last 10 to 20 pounds, I’ll be happy.” Or maybe you compare yourself to every other woman out there who has a “better body” than you.

Believe it or not, as I travel the island of Bali in a swimsuit 90% of the time, similar thoughts have been coming up for me which have knocked me so far off the spiritual wagon that I’ve questioned my sanity at times.

Here I am, on a trip of a lifetime, on the the most spiritual island in the world, worrying about my body.

More specifically, my stomach.

I want to share with you in real time how I deal with body shame; how I move through the judgements and settle back into love with 5 simple steps. I’ve used these steps on myself, and as proof that they work, I just asked Steve to take us a nude beach next. This sh*t works.

Why am I sharing about this? Because this pain isn’t just mine.

Body Shame is a Western Woman’s disease that we’ve inherited from the media, photoshop, Victoria’s Secret, and every Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition. It’s time to end this cycle for our daughters and daughter’s daughters; it starts with us.

But wait, what does this have to do with business?
How we do one thing is how we do everything.

At the beginning of the year I shared my new monthly income goal with my coach, and she asked me why I desired that number. My response was, “because I don’t want to worry about money again.”

She lovingly invited me back into reality, and told me that even if I made $20-$50k that month, my worry about money won’t go away. My beliefs about money must shift first, or else I’ll be chasing numbers with the same worrying thoughts chasing me.

In other words, your beliefs and consciousness around money must transform before the money comes in, not the other way around.

Now let’s relate this to your body. If you believe that you’ll be happy once you lose the weight, you’ll keep running around the hamster wheel chasing happiness with yo-yo dieting. What if you chose to love your body, now? Exactly as it is? Not just loving how it looks. But loving it with your choices. That’s when the happiness and acceptance shows up. Your beauty can’t be denied when you choose to love your body now, with your thoughts and actions.

Here’s the video recorded from our amazing villa in Bali! Click the image below to watch.

Afterthoughts…

As I prepare to take over the Celebration of Woman workshop as a certified Facilitator in September, which supports women in loving and accepting their bodies as they are now, all my lingering shadows are showing up for me to feel through and heal. This is the Rite of Passage I speak up so often. I’m in it, and I’m grateful.

When we step into the light our shadows are going to show up whether we want them to or not (when we least expect it). Like right now, on my blissed out vacation in Bali.

Thank you for ending the body shame cycle with me, and if you need any support in this area, don’t hesitate to reach out by responding to this email. I always love hearing from you!

love,
Chrissy

Why I Love Being A Woman (When I Used To Hate It)

Hey gorgeous,

Today, I love being a woman- but I used to hate it.

  • I used to hate the attention I attracted on the street because I felt unsafe and objectified.
  • I used to hate my hips and broad shoulders, despising my feminine physique because I looked different than my teammates on the track team.
  • I used to hate my menstrual cycle and the mood swings that came with it.
  • I used to hate my feelings so I ran to prescription medication to manage my anxiety, depression, and anger.
  • I used to hate dancing so I turned to alcohol for the courage to move and have fun.
  • I used to hate being alone so I settled for ANYONE who would date me.

You get the picture….

The good news is, those self-deprecating cycles ended when I participated in a workshop that changed my perception of being a woman FOREVER.

The workshop is Celebration of Woman, a 3.5 day retreat designed for women to remember who they really are. I participated in this workshop for the first time 4 years ago, making a vow to bring this work to other women so they can experience the similar healing and self acceptance.

I’m now returning from leading this workshop for the 6th time, and I’m more awake than ever to the power of being a woman. Something so beautiful happens when “all is welcome” – when a woman is cheered for and celebrated through her own darkness and back into the light. Look at these gorgeous women below!

This workshop allows every woman to experience basic feminine freedoms:
The freedom to be seen.
The freedom to speak up.
The freedom to love her body as a temple.
The freedom to dance.
The freedom to sit in stillness.
The freedom to be happy.
The freedom to be real.
The freedom to love.
The freedom to forgive.
The freedom to believe in something bigger than herself.

I feel moved to share this with you because I trust in my gut that you desire these freedoms as well.

Do you desire to put the laptop away and give the woman behind the business the attention and love she deserves to let go?
Are you longing to be seen and heard inside a safe and loving space to heal old stories and pains?
Do you want to love your body exactly as it is now?
Do you want to love yourself, and I mean..all of yourself?
Do you want to claim back your joy after years of exhaustion and putting others first? 

It’s possible!

A woman’s birthright is to love. When you have the space to release all the baggage that keeps you up at night, your essence of love is revealed. It’s a kind of self-love that you get to define for yourself at the workshop.

Our workshops are filling up FAST, so if you want to to claim your spot in our September workshop, I invite you to set up a call with me.

I want to get to know you and support your struggles as a woman.
