I hope you are all well and this finds you just happy about life. But if by chance it doesn't, we might be going over something today that's actually going to shift your mindset and shift the way you think about your business and about your personal life. I want to talk to you guys today about instant gratification. And I know everybody already knows what I'm talking about when I say those two words. It is absolutely in our face and in every way in society, everybody wants that instant gratification. They want that Amazon package delivered in two hours, right? Not two days. They want those likes on their post and that viral TikTok or whatever it is you put out in the world.

Hey friend, welcome to Deep Healing for Creative Entrepreneurs. My name is Aubrey Barr and I am a subconscious release technique practitioner and photography business owner. I know you are sick of ending your day feeling overwhelmed and exhausted and you are seeking a solution to help you feel creatively inspired and actively engaged in your business as well as personal life. In this podcast, we are going to dig into any limiting beliefs or subconscious programs that are keeping you in a space filled with anxiety and stress. This work is not a temporary solution for your life. No, this is a complete transformation. So grab your coffee or tea and let's start you on the road to healing. And let me just say, you can do this. You are worth it and you are meant to thrive in life and business. So let's.

Some of you listening today to this episode are wanting to start a business and don't know where to begin. Kudos for you for looking at the mindset behind it because wow, a lot of us didn't realize there was so much to the subconscious when you're starting your own business. For the rest of you who already have a business but are looking at scaling or even shifting into a different realm. Maybe it's mentoring that you've been wanting to do or shifting complete genres, right? Whatever you're doing right now where you know you're kind of stuck at one point and you want to grow past that, that is why you're listening today. I'm going to be straight up honest with you guys, okay? I have paid a lot of money to get coaches on the business side of things that will help me form my business, market my business, put out content for my business.

And I'm going to tell you right now, the best coaches and the best programs for me all had a strategy forward approach with a tiny bit of mindset work in the back. Let me explain this to you a little bit, okay? Strategy forward, what I mean by that is that, hey, this is how you start a business. This is how you maintain a business. This is how you talk about it and you share it with people. And these are the points you want to make. And this is how you want to come up with your ideal client and speak to that person. There's all this strategy behind it how many times you should post you know what kinds of questions you want to ask your audience how you want to engage with them all of these are so beneficial and I'm not overlooking them or downgrading them but I promise you your strategy is not as important as your mindset.

And part of the reason why this is so essential is that instant gratification. It's that need to see that what we're doing is working. And the critical thing about this is that what you're doing is not going to work if your mindset is still keeping you in that lower vibration, in that lower world, that one where you don't believe you can scale, where you don't really think you are worth people's time, where you don't really think that you can charge that much and still have clients, right? There's a whole mindset behind that. that people who make a lot of money are the ones who have no issue making claims about their work. They do not tittle-tattle, tittle-tattle, I don't know if that's a word. They don't go back and forth in their heads about, should I do this? Should I do that? No, they do it. They go for it. And whoever wants to meet them on their level will buy with them. They will be in their world. They will choose to work with them.

Okay. When you are stuck in this place, and I know it's subconscious, so some of you may not even recognize it. Okay. So just allow yourself to think, is this me? You're stuck in a place where you know you need to raise your prices, but you don't want to do it. You've been fighting with it because you honestly believe that those people that have already purchased with you will never come back to you. Okay. OK, and even though the logic is not sound there, OK, because we all know that we're all paying extra for things, we are dealing with inflation right in our face where it's super obvious. In the past, it's been slow and kind of like, oh, that feels like it's a little bit more now. Right now, it's in our face. There's no way to avoid the fact that we are paying more for things we used to pay less for.

OK, so when you think about that, why why would we not expect that from those people in our lives that we do work with? I personally do not expect my hairdresser to charge me the same thing as she did 10 years ago. Like that would be crazy, right? But yeah, we put that burden on ourselves and we're doing it from a subconscious level. We are comfortable making $500 for this family session. That feels good to us and it feels sellable. We're not comfortable with asking for $750 for the same thing. Right? We actually have an income line, a salary cap in our subconscious that's saying, no, we can't go above that. And that's what a lot of you are dealing with. But yet you're seeking other strategy, right? You're looking for new ways to market and that's fine. I'm not saying you shouldn't at all. What I am saying is we're getting, putting too much focus on the the strategy and not enough on the mindset.

I mentioned my coaches earlier. Every coach that I had that I have a high amount of respect for, and I absolutely love that I spent money on their program, every single one of those know without a shadow of doubt that mindset work is super super powerful. And it is often what people need to break through their current income levels or their current growth strategy. Because maybe you're growing so that you put less time into your work, but you're still making the same amount, right? It's not always about that money coming in, right? Either way, it's scaling. So those people absolutely know that. And actually, Actually, one of my coaches sent out an email about me two days ago. I was completely shocked to read it. She was talking about scaling your business to 10K months. And she is a very, very good coach. I know that sounds like a... Total selling point now because we hear it so often, oh, you want to make 10K in one month, right? And it's definitely out there. I'll give you that. But this coach in particular is crazy good at what she does. And she is very much worth the investment. But she sent out an email about that. And she talked about how people are always wanting that instant gratification. They are wanting that opportunity to put in, even just purchase a course, and then think that the next Oh, bam, 10K, I made it, right? And it sounds so dumb when we just say it, but it is subconsciously what we're expecting. We're upset because it didn't work in the first month, right? We don't think that we have to put that much time into it because we're learning it. That's what we're here for. We think it's supposed to be fast.

But nonetheless, I wanted to read a little bit about what she wrote because I think it's the best advice and it just 100% goes along with my way way of thinking about how I work on the subconscious mind. So I wanted to share some with you guys. Okay. It says, how long does it take to make 10K a month? This is the most common question I get asked. And the answer is always, it depends. It depends on what your childhood looked like. It depends on your ability to handle pressure. It depends on how long you take to make decisions. Because your childhood, your traumas, and your conditioning affect how you show up for your life and your business. And how you show up defines the results you'll get. This is 100% true. This is what I have seen over and over again. This is where people miss the mark. People will spend days, hours, months working on strategy, and they still won't be able to to succeed because their mindset is not accepting of their new goal and their new growth, okay?

The main motto, you can achieve anything you want, you just have to work harder. And if you haven't reached your goal, then it's because you haven't worked hard enough. You guys hear me talk about this all the time. It's that hard work mentality. It's a generational trauma. And it's absolutely the reason why a lot of you can't make passive income and you can't make sales quickly, okay? Totally, you guys, listen, this is totally, totally, I made up a word for this. It is totally fixable. Like a hundred percent, you can get past that. It's not going to hold you back as long as you know what to do about it. But she went on to say, It wasn't until I understood how to manage my capacity, work through a lot of my childhood trauma and workaholism, and investing heavily into becoming aware and healing those wounds that I was able to scale to 100K months. And just a side note, I personally know that she makes well over 100K in a month at this point.

But she goes on to say, your business success will not just depend on the strategies you you know, but also on your early childhood and generational experiences that have shaped your whole life. I know many of you struggle to show up and let yourself be seen. You struggle with imposter syndrome or not feeling good enough. That's why I wanted to introduce you to my VIP client, Aubrey Barr. Now, I was absolutely flabbergasted at reading this email because Because she's absolutely talking about the mindset work that I love and talk about all the time. And she 100% agrees with me. Someone who's making way more, let's just say it, than I am, okay? Way more. But she understands the value of the subconscious work that I do. And I am honored that she understands that and that she shares that with her world because because she has a lot of reach out there. So that definitely made me happy.

But let's be honest, if I didn't go out every day and share this passion and this knowledge with people, and be able to help them move past their limiting beliefs, and guess what? I show up, even though it doesn't always feel like I'm getting that instant gratification. I'm not always getting top downloads on my podcast or, you know, a crap ton of people on my YouTube videos, which are few and far between. Like not everything I do is going viral and getting all that traction that feels beautiful and accepting and amazing, right? But guess what? I'm still out there. I'm still doing my thing because I believe in what I do. And I have a why underneath here that says, you know what? You need to help other people to understand. What is actually holding them back, and then show them the blueprint. Show them the way in which they're going to be able to move past these issues.

Because no matter what business you have now, it will not succeed if it keeps coming across these negative thought patterns. Eventually, you will give in. Most people are not strong enough to keep fighting and fighting day in and day out without getting that mindset shift and mindset support. This is the ultimate goal of subconscious release technique and being able to heal from the inside out. So wherever you're at, I invite you to join us for Deep Healing for the Creative Soul.
