I had a session with my private coach the other day.

And to be honest? It humbled me.

You see, when you’re running a business, people assume you’ve got it all figured out. That you wake up every morning feeling unstoppable, knowing exactly what moves to make.

But here’s what nobody tells you…

Everyone gets stuck at points in life.

Lately, I’d been feeling anxious. About money. About growth. About chargebacks that felt like a personal attack.

I was constantly thinking about the next thing—the next sale, the next client, the next level.

But instead of feeling in control, I felt like I was running full speed with weights strapped to my ankles.

So I did what most entrepreneurs don’t do…

I asked for help.

And in just one conversation, my coach helped me see what I couldn’t see on my own.

1. Anxiety isn’t about money—it’s about uncertainty.

I realized I wasn’t just afraid of not having money—I was afraid of not knowing what’s next. The cure? Focus on what I can control: daily actions, mindset, and reinforcing the belief in consistent financial growth.

2. Chargebacks aren’t just about cash—they’re about confidence.

Clients don’t ask for refunds because they’re broke. They ask because they’re unsure. My job isn’t just to sell—it’s to reinforce their decision at every step. That’s why I’m implementing group onboarding calls immediately & helping them with their next right thing.

3. Your emotional relationship with money shapes how much you make.

If you’re stressed about money, you make decisions from a place of fear. Fear-based decisions lead to playing small. If I want to grow, I have to believe in my ability to generate wealth consistently.

4. Work-life balance isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity.

I’d been telling myself, “I don’t have time for the gym.” But the truth? Skipping the gym was making me worse at business. When I take care of myself, I perform better. Period. So, I’m committing to a twice-weekly gym routine. No excuses.

5. Business problems are usually mindset problems in disguise.

My struggles weren’t just about clients or cash flow—they were about how I was thinking about those things. The solution wasn’t to work harder. It was to think differently.

6. Morning rituals shape the day’s success.

A cluttered mind leads to a cluttered business. So I’m starting daily morning walks—not just for fitness, but for clarity.

7. You can’t just “sell” clients—you have to lead them.

People don’t always understand what they bought or how to use it. If I want fewer chargebacks and more long-term clients, I need to educate them after they buy, not just before.

8. Scaling isn’t about more work—it’s about better thinking.

If I keep thinking the way I always have, I’ll keep getting the results I always got. Growth starts with upgrading my mindset first, then my strategy.

9. The best investment you’ll ever make is in the way you think.

It’s easy to throw money at ads, software, or marketing tactics. But the biggest ROI comes from working on yourself.

10. Everyone needs a coach.

Even the best in the world have mentors. Why? Because we all have blind spots. Someone else can see what we can’t—and that’s the fastest way to level up.

What’s Next for Me?

Morning walks to clear my mind and set the tone for my day

Group onboarding calls to reinforce client confidence & help them set course for their future

A non-negotiable gym routine because my body fuels my business

Daily mindset work to rewire my beliefs about success

I already feel lighter. Clearer. More in control.

So if you’ve been feeling stuck—whether in business, relationships, or life—here’s my advice:

Find someone who can challenge your thinking. Someone who can see your blind spots, hold up a mirror, and force you to confront what’s really going on.

Even the best need a coach.

I do. You do. We all do.

Because the real breakthrough isn’t in working harder—it’s in working on yourself.

All our limitations in life live in-between our ears.
