Hi Soulful Friend,
First off, if you are a veteran and are reading this, I want to authentically thank you from the bottom of my heart for your service.
I totally know that feeling you get when you wonder, maybe even doubt if anyone is really reading or paying attention to what you are putting out there in the world in your emails, social media or whatever channels you might use to communicate to your people.
This can lead to deciding that maybe staying engaged and in touch can drop down your priority list. Has this ever happened to you?
🙋♀️ Guilty as charged, right here! Yup, even though I help people with the mindset and action plans to make sure that this doesn't happen...it does still happen to me. Especially when things in life and business feel a little unbalanced or unsettled for one reason or another.
Well, let me share an experience I just had yesterday that really hit me in the heart and has re-energized me around my outreach to you and the many people who follow me.
I was attending a local Chamber of Commerce luncheon as a guest. A man named Todd was at the table I decided to sit at. As we were going around doing introductions, he asked me to repeat my name and business again. He then said-
"We have met before. At Fort Collins Start-Up week last January. I get your emails and I really enjoy them. You have a really unique perspective on things and I've never met a business coach who shares the kind of wisdom you do. You are a really compelling and impactful writer."
I immediately felt a little bit embarrassed that I didn't remember him and then the feeling of shame crept in as I realized that I have shared anything with him or you since September. I acknowledged both of these things and said "Wow, I receive that. It is really meaningful to know that people read my messages AND find value in them."
He then took this a little bit further and said "I want to really highlight the fact that I get a lot of emails and I mostly skim them, but yours I always make sure to read." WOW. Thank you Todd - for sharing this.
So here I am accepting the signs from above that I am supposed to be reaching out to you. I'm showing up and reaching out to:
-
Share my journey
-
Offer tips & inspiration
-
Uncover new insights
-
Let you know about upcoming opportunities you might find valuable.
There it is again...my SOUL showing up. :) I want to remind you that you have special things to share with your audience too. If you are doubting it for one reason or another, know that you are not alone AND that you can decide to take action.
Whether you think you have something to say or not...someone is paying attention you just might not know it. Faith is more powerful than proof.
Send the email. Post the post. Attend the event. Reach out to the person.
Now. Stop waiting and take action. Consider this the sign you maybe were looking for.
Next- I want to share about the upcoming Soulful Entrepreneur Summit. The rest of the email is about this super fun offer that we are calling the Manifest Sale! Keep reading and watch this fun video and then GET YOUR TICKET- it's only $1 for a limited time.
