Happy Friday!!

The week back after a holiday is always a bit crazy for me, but I’ve got some awesome tidbits to share with you today!  Check them out…

1. Small moves & big impact.  So this week I tried a new barre inspired workout that I’d never done before and while I thought it would be “easy” for me since I was a dancer in my teens and 20’s, I was so wrong!  I was challenged by these seemingly teeny, tiny movements that at first glance didn’t seem like much, but let me tell you, the day after I was so incredibly sore!  I took this as a metaphor for life.  

While I wasn’t doing big jumps/squats or lifting heavy weights (real talk I used 2.5lbs and I was dying!), I was clearly having a big impact on my body.  The same goes for life.  You don’t have to always take big, massive leaps in order to create massive impact.  Often, it’s the cumulative effect of small steps over time that makes the biggest difference.  So, what small step can you take today (and tomorrow and the next day)?  Think about it!  (And if you want to try that workout I mentioned- here’s a free link.  Try it and let me know what you think!)

2.It takes as long as it takes.  When it comes to life and business there are times when I can often feel frustrated and impatient for not being “there” already.  In my head, I often have a timeline of when I think I ‘should’ be there (and usually I feel a bit behind).  But the truth is…whatever we desire takes as long as it takes.  Now, I suppose that’s a pretty crappy marketing message, but with the kind of journey we are on, it’s true. 

What we desire is there for the creating and the sooner we release judgement regarding when it needs to be here…the more enjoyable the journey and likely the faster. So, let’s just take some time to relax about all the “timelines” yeah?  

3.  Celebrate the journey.  Another thing I’ve been pondering that I want to do more often is celebrate the journey as a whole.  Not just that, but celebrate what I’ve done that has gotten me here to this very moment.  As a goal/action oriented person, I’m always on fire with where I’m going next and the next goal I’m ready to crush, but I don’t often stop and celebrate where I’ve been. 

That changes now.  At the end of each month, I am going to spend some time celebrating my “wins” for that month and really taking stock of where I’ve been.  I think it will make a huge impact on how I feel and what I accomplish moving forward. 

4. Surrender first.  I’ve said this before and apparently I needed the reminder as it came up in the book I’m reading now.  If we all just surrendered our desires, problems, challenges, issues, and the like to the Universe first…life would be so much easier. 

Remember, “surrendering” doesn’t mean you let go of the desire, it means you simply let go of your need to control the how/when/who piece.  It also doesn’t mean you don’t have to “do” anything.  It just means you must be open to and follow the inspiration that comes.  Believe me, when you surrender first…life is much sweeter and more magical. 

5. YOU are worth investing in!  As we move through the busy holiday season and into a new year, it’s important for you to know that YOU are worth investing in…and I don’t just mean money either.  I’m talking about investing time, money, energy, interest, momentum, intentions etc. 

Your dreams, desires, intentions, health, peace of mind, growth, and self-care are all worth investing in and the thing is…no one needs to give you permission to invest in you except YOU. So, let this be a gentle reminder to allow yourself the opportunity to invest in you, in whatever way, shape or form you feel called.  Especially as we enter into a New Year.  And as always if you are looking for some support, I’d love to chat with you!

So that’s it for this week!

I hope you are enjoying your Friday 5 messages and I hope you have an amazing weekend!

The past few weeks seem to have flown by in the blink of an eye!  With so much activity here in the U.S. for the Thanksgiving/Black Friday/Holiday Shopping hub-bub, it seems we’ve fast-tracked ourselves into the last month of 2019. 

Earlier this week I received a message from one of my clients and she said something I’ve heard quite a bit this year from some of my other clients which is…

“Lamisha, I can’t believe I’m saying this but the life I am living now is actually the life I dreamed of not too long ago!” 

Sit with that for just a minute. 

Imagine that the life you’ve been dreaming of for who knows how long has finally all come together in full technicolor and you are in a place where you have the money, career, business, relationship, health, family and overall LIFE you’ve been dreaming of!!!  Can you imagine the incredible feeling that would wash over you knowing that what you’ve been dreaming of is not only possible, but it’s here *right now*???

I can tell you with full confidence a part of you might say something like “Oh my goodness, is this really my life???” while the other part says…”But of course!”

Listen friends, you are meant to live the dreams that are in your heart and soul.  You are meant to experience all the magic that your mind can conjure up and not in 20 or 30 years either!  You get to experience it all sooner than you think. 

In fact, in the very first session I had with this client I told her:

“J…you get to want what you want and you get to have it too!” 

 The same is absolutely true for YOU.  Not only that, but I guarantee that when you do this work (mindset, intention setting, flow work) you will (sooner than you think) be living the life of your dreams.  It can be no other way.

And the best part about this is when you do…you’ll tap into a new level of dreams and desires that will make your life more incredible than you ever thought possible.  The truth is, it just keeps getting better and better the more you expand in your mindset and your power.  <—This is what life is all about!

Now, I’m not sharing this with you to pat myself on the back because honestly I’m just a facilitator in this incredible work.  I’m sharing this with you because I want you to know what is possible for YOU. 

I want you to know that while this year may not have gone the way you would have wanted (and it’s been that way for a lot of people), there is still so much incredible magic and wonder to create in your life and it all starts when you decide it is so!

When I asked J how she knew she was ready to take the leap and get support working with a coach she said this:

“When I heard about the opportunity, it just clicked.  I knew I was ready to do the work, but I needed guidance to direct the energy.  I needed help to direct the flow.”

As we all start thinking about what we want to achieve not only this month, but in the upcoming new year I want to know…

Are you ready to do the work?
Do you need some guidance to direct your focus and energy?
Are you ready to look back and say you are finally living a life you once only dreamt of? 

If so, here’s what I need you to do. 

1. You can hit the link below to book a free 30-minute chat to see if I am the right coach for you. (If you sign up in December for a 1:1 program, you will get a bonus session + another custom surprise.)

2. Email me here and let me know what you specifically are looking to change/transform/create for 2020. (I am in planning mode for something coming in January and I need your input.)

Isn’t it time for YOU to live the life you once only dreamed about?  I think so!

P.S.  I just realized when I started my business in 2013 it was called “Life Once Dreamt” and now I’m absolutely fulfilling that vision with clients! How magical is that???

Sending massive love to you!

Happy October Friends!!!

With the seasons and weather changing here in the US, it seems appropriate to chat a bit about one of my (not so) favorite things about life…change.

Now, to be fair…change and I are much better friends than we used to be, but that doesn’t mean I’m comfortable with it 100% of the time. 

Generally speaking I have two sides of my personality…

One side is a creature of habit who loves routine, structure, and stability across the board while the other craves total freedom, adventure, and likes to shake things up whenever she’s tired of the routine.  (What can I say? I’m a bit complicated at times. )

And while “change” isn’t necessarily my favorite thing in the world, I’ve learned to cope with it.  Thanks to being a mother, military spouse and business owner, it seems I’ve created the perfect life to learn how to embrace change…aka not lose my shit completely when I’m told we are moving yet again. 

But the thing I’ve learned more than anything is this…
 

 CHOOSING change for your life…(even when it’s scary) is better than living within the safety of what you know.  

You see, as human beings we are creatures of habit, but we are also here to grow, evolve, and expand into the highest version of ourselves.  We are literally on this planet to not only grow within ourselves, but to connect and grow together.  And yet, the biggest thing holding us back from all the incredible things we want in our lives is the fear of change.

Take a moment to think about some of the things you desire in your life.  Better yet, think about the things you said you wanted to create, shift or change for 2019.

Maybe you want to move out of state, start a business, write a book, get healthy, find your purpose, quit your job, travel the world or something else entirely. 

Why haven’t you done it yet?  What’s holding you back?

If you’re like me, it’s likely equal parts fear of the unknown and the discomfort that comes from making massive changes in your life. But what’s the alternative? 

One of the biggest wake up calls for me was asking myself this question…
 

What if nothing changes???

So…what if?

What if where you are right now with all the desires you want to make never actually changes because you let fear get in the way? I don’t know about you, but that was enough for me to leap right on out of my comfort zone. 

The truth is, if you desire something different than what you have now, change will always be part of the equation.  There’s just no getting around that. (Believe me, I speak from experience.) And while I’d love to tell you it will always be easy and effortless, I can’t.  Change and transformation come with a bit of growing pains that in hindsight are always totally worth it (and honestly never as bad as we think they will be.)

So, with all this talk of change and transformation, are you ready to recommit to your desires for the final quarter of 2019?  Are you ready to embrace change and enjoy the magic that comes from it?

If so, I’ve got some good news for you!

SOS Program is BACK!!!

I’ve decided to bring back my SOS Program for the final quarter of 2019.  If you don’t know what this program is, it’s a 3-month 1:1 accountability and support program that will not only help you create the shifts and changes you want, but help you build a sustainable mindset to keep you going well into 2020. 

It includes: 3 Calls (1 per month) + Unlimited  video messaging between sessions for 3 full months.  It’s a power-packed program for a fraction of the cost of my signature mindset program. 

Investment: $175/month or 1 payment of $450 

If you’re interested in claiming one of the 3 spots available, hit the link below and let’s get you scheduled for a free chat to see if it’s a good fit for you.  

I am so pumped about this last quarter of the year and I can’t wait to help YOU make the changes you might have been sitting on this year.  

Are you ready???

If you’re not quite sure if you’re ready to take yourself, your business, or your life to the next level, consider these your big red flags that you ARE.

Leveling up is part of how we grow, but more than that it’s about actively choosing to grow, evolve, and become who we were really meant to be.

If you know that your time is NOW, and you want some support with building the proper mindset and taking the right actions, I encourage you to book a free chat with me so we can discuss my NEW Level-up Experience program.

Check out my website at www.lamishaserfwalls.com or book a free consultation here.

I want to share something with you that took me a LONG time to learn (and if I’m honest, I forget this little gem often so it’s as much for me as it is for you.)
 

When you STEP UP to LEVEL UP…you will often be tested.

Now I’m not saying that the Universe will test you to see if you are worthy of your desires, but you will most certainly begin to feel some sort of resistance. 

What I am saying is that when you DECIDE, DECLARE or powerfully PROCLAIM what you are no longer willing to put up with and step into the magic and power of who you really are…sometimes there appears to be a glitch in the system.

On the outside things look like they are moving in  exact opposition to where you just DECLARED you were going and it’s totally normal.

The key here is to maintain your level of faith, trust, and belief in what you’ve just claimed as yours and to keep moving forward as if that thing in front of you isn’t even there.

–>You keep believing.
–>You keep trusting.
–>You keep your mind and eyes on the prize because YOU know what you are creating.

And friends, I can’t tell you how many people get stuck at this point because of what they SEE.

It is imperative for you to LOOK beyond what you SEE especially as you begin to align your thoughts and actions with your new direction.

So, if you find yourself in a bit of an energetic pickle where things aren’t exactly lining up in the way you just declared, know that you are in fact on the right track.

What’s yours is coming and you MUST keep your eyes, mind and heart on what it is you are stepping up to…it’s the ONLY way.

So, if you’ve been struggling a bit with your new desires you’ve declared and you’re seeing something different than what you’d like to see, here are a few things you can do to keep your mindset strong…
 
• Double down on your mindset work
• Meditate
• Go have fun
• Do anything to take your mind off what’s seemingly not working out

Basically do whatever you need to do in order to anchor in the KNOWING that what you’ve decided and declared is already on the way to you.  All the “stuff” you are seeing is really just old news energetically so don’t worry about it. 

This is one of those things we are *all* dealing with at the moment so on August 22nd @ 7:30pm I’m hosting a free masterclass to share 6 Tips to Up-level Your Life. To make sure you receive all the call details make sure you sign up HERE.
