You don’t know, what you don’t know…

A few years ago when I was still working in the corporate world, I had a boss that used to say “They don’t know, what they don’t know and it is our job to teach them”.

At the time it didn’t really make sense and since I didn’t care much for this particular boss and how she ran the company, I just let it go.

But, just the other day I was chatting with my wife and that quote came to mind and it totally resonated.

It was like a light switch had turned on and I finally understood what she meant and it 100% applies to what I do in my work every single day.

Truth be told, I’m more than a coach. I am much more of a teacher and the coaching work I do helps to bring to light the things that my amazing clients can’t quite see.

I help them tune into the things they can’t tune into.

I help them break through the mental blocks they didn’t know they had.

And then I TEACH them how to do all of that themselves (using tools like the ones I teach in the Grow, Evolve, Become program) because my work is all about EMPOWERMENT.

Now, does this mean I can help everyone in the world? No.

And even if it did mean that, it’s really not my purpose.

The women who are destined to work with me are already undergoing a transformation. They know that there is something out there that they don’t quite know and subconsciously they are seeking a way to find the answer. They may not even know it until it pops up in their newsfeed or they stumble upon one of my articles.

In fact this very thing happened for one of my recent clients:

“There is an expression that “when the student is ready, the teacher will appear.” How grateful am I that Lamisha was that teacher and the Universe literally put her in my path, because that is what happened: Lamisha appeared in my Facebook feed and, through conversation, we found each other.” ~ V.F.

That is the true magic of this work. When you are ready for change (and you are open), the person, group, network, or resource you need just pops up seemingly from out of nowhere and when you follow your inspired action-magic happens.

So what kinds of things don’t people know?

Some people:

Don’t know that THEY are the creators of their own reality and have the ability to create a life they LOVE.
Aren’t aware of how important how they FEEL is to creating that amazing life
Don’t know about the Law of Attraction
Aren’t clear on the ways they are blocking what they desire from coming into their lives
Don’t know that it can be EASY
Just don’t know HOW to make it all happen

Do any of those things resonate for you?

Today, I want you to ask yourself a few questions:

What do I LOVE about my life?
What do I ACHE for in my future?
What don’t I know that might change my life and future forever?
What do I need to DO right now to move me forward?

It may be hard to figure out what it is you don’t know right now because, well you don’t know it, but you might just get an answer that surprises you. Be open to what may come up and LISTEN.

And if you are feeling the pull to reach out for help, why not schedule a Free 30-Minute Connection Call? I’d love to chat with you and learn a bit more about you and help in any way I can.

All you need are the tools…

How Words Can Become Blocks…

October 28, 2014 by Lamisha

I first want to say thank you to everyone who read, commented, shared, and responded to my latest article in the Huffington Post titled: 12 Universal Laws That Will Change Your Life for the Better. I am deeply grateful to everyone for your kindness and am looking forward to connecting with each of you either through my blog, on Facebook, Twitter, or by working with you one-on-one.

It’s long been said that words have power and when you think of that phrase you probably think of ‘positive’ or ‘negative’ thoughts. You might think of words that empower us and uplift versus those that tear us down. And while there are words that generally create a positive or negative feel to them, I want to talk about something a bit different.

I want to talk about words like ’email’ or ‘sales’ or ‘newsletter’ or ‘career’ or ‘money’ or ‘abundance’ or other seemingly simple words that might be thought of as neutral.

Even neutral words can be charged with a positive or negative vibe depending on how we feel about them. One word might resonate positively for me, but for you it might feel a bit negative or heavy.

So, why am I talking about words and vibes?

Because many times the words we use (and the vibes attached to those words) hold us back in some way.

I’ll give you an example:

A few months back I was working with a lovely client who is also an entrepreneur. She is incredible at what she does and is very good about making a list and doing what needs to be done except for when it came to her newsletter. (Those of you in the business world know how much emphasis is put on your list and the newsletters you send to your list.)

My dear client was stuck. No matter how many times that newsletter ended up on her to-do list, it never got done. She procrastinated, avoided it, and would do 100 other things before she would think of taking care of the newsletter.

Why?

Because the idea of it was overwhelming. The importance and power that was placed on the dreaded newsletter made her cringe. She wanted it to be perfect and couldn’t bring herself to sit for the amount of time it would take her to get it to perfect.

After some digging we realized it wasn’t the actual newsletter that was sending her running for the hills. It was the vibration and feeling that was attached to it that was.

I suggested that instead of thinking of it as a newsletter she think of it as just an email. She sends emails every day to her clients so what is one more? Changing the word also changed the vibration that was attached to the activity. She no longer needed to fret about sending perfect emails because she emails were easy for her.

Words can become like brick walls, blocking you from being, having, or doing exactly what you need to get to where you are going.

If negatively charged words are your issue (and I assure you we all have something like that), then it can be as simple as shifting the word a bit which also shifts the vibe.

I’ll give you another example.

Just yesterday I had a conversation with another client who was struggling with doing ‘sales pitches’. Every time she got to the sales part of her call, she would freeze up and stumble a bit. She didn’t want to be pushy or sales-y or sleazy about it and desperately needed to find a comfortable way of dealing with sales.

I noticed the negative charge she gave to the word ‘sales’ and we chatted about changing the idea of a ‘sales pitch’ to simply an invitation, because really that’s all it is. The word invitation instantly feels lighter, brighter, and open. She immediately felt the difference and felt better about inviting clients to make life changes.

Sometimes the blocks you are feeling have very simple fixes. Change the word, you change the vibration. Words like ‘money’, ‘abundance’, ‘prosperity’, ‘rich’, etc. also have the potential to have a ton of vibrational baggage that comes along with them.

Are there any words that feel heavy, dark, or do you feel resistance to? Share in the comments below and let’s see if we can do a simple flip to change the vibes. It can make all the difference in how you feel.

P.S. Friday is the last day to sign up for my Coach on Call offer and I only have a few openings left. If you are interested in signing up, but want to chat a bit first to make sure we are a good fit, schedule your 30-Minute Consultation HERE. I look forward to chatting with you!

Recent Lessons & Major Breakthroughs

May 5, 2014 by Lamisha

Being a coach, I am not exempt from life lessons and major breakthroughs that I help my clients through and this past week has been a pretty big week for me. Not only am I stepping more into who I really am as a business owner and coach, but also who I am as a wife, a mother, and all the other shoes I fill. It’s both liberating and sometimes downright scary to look at all the things I am doing in my life and where I want to be. I stand in awe as I look how far I have come and am amazed at the progress while still looking ahead to everything that I want to do.

I wanted to take a moment to share with you my recent life lessons and ‘aha’ moments that have come from my conversations with clients and my dear spiritual soul sisters who have shared their amazing gifts with me. I hope that by reading this you are able to identify with some (if not all) of the lessons and feel your own transformation and healing begin to take place.

Have Fun: This is such a good reminder not just for me but for any of you wonderful business-minded souls who are working, striving, and making moves in the business world. We are too often caught in the building phase of our empire that we forget what it’s like to truly LIVE and have FUN! In fact, I was given the assignment to do something fun every single day and I had a hard time thinking of what I would do! How silly is that?! Fun is a huge piece of the happy life puzzle and it is what opens us to the magic that is in the world. So, I ask you: What have you done for fun lately?

Recognize and Celebrate Your Own Brilliance: As a coach, I am able to immediately see the light and brilliance that my clients have. I see it, connect with it, and reflect it back to them in ways that they can see and feel it. It can be far more difficult for me to stand back and view myself in that same way which at times results in doubt, frustration, and dare I say fear? A wonderfully talented soul sister of mine reminded me that I don’t have to compare my talents and gifts with any one else nor do I have to place anyone on a pedestal while viewing myself as ‘below’ them on the totem pole of power and authority. When we are stepping onto our true path, it can be far too easy to compare ourselves with those around us. We take note of their success and all that they have conquered while tallying up our ‘successes’ that never seem to amount to much. But when we can step back from our ego and view our life, our accomplishments, and our gifts through fresh eyes, we see that comparison is not necessary. We are all brilliant in our own way and simply knowing that is the first step to truly seeing it. I want you to know that you are brilliant as well! Whether you are an artist, coach, healer, yoga instructor, or you are an amazing parent, partner, animal-lover etc. YOU are brilliant and have a light and many amazing gifts that the world needs. See it! Embrace it! Celebrate it! 🙂

Take Risks: This one is a HUGE message I have been getting in the last few weeks but I only recognized it last week. Most of my life I have had this internal fight inside of myself. Logic vs Dreams, Stability vs Freedom, Comfort vs Adventure. I haven’t ever really been the risk-taker in life and have spent much of my life taking calculated risks while worrying about the best decision to make to keep things ‘stable’. Since I started my business I have been playing it safe too which translates to playing small. I have put my toe in the water of uncertainty and slowly eased in when what my heart really wants to do (and what my soul is aching to do) is dive in clothes and all! I have been in my own way and while it may not seem like that on the outside, there are many ways it is manifesting in my life. Procrastination, timidness, fear, and more uncertainty. But here is the flip side of all that. I KNOW that in order for me to be wildly successful and do all the work I am truly meant to do, I must stop with the fear, stop with the calculated risks and listen to my heart again. The same heart that told me to leap into my business. The same heart that said, I don’t know how but I will figure it out. The same heart that at one point told me to move over 300 miles away from my home, my friends, and my family for love. THAT is the heart I am listening to. So risks I shall take and I encourage you to do the same. So what if you don’t have all your ducks in a row, some ducks may show up to the party fashionably late, but that doesn’t stop the party. Jump! Leap! Dive in and watch what happens to your life!

Ask For Help: I don’t know if this is because I am the oldest child or if I have developed a sense of ‘I can do it all myself’ syndrome, but somewhere along the way I decided I didn’t need help. Not only that, but even if I did, I wouldn’t ask for it. And I am not exactly talking about asking my fellow neighbors and friends for help, I’m talking asking the Universe and the Divine for assistance. I am a firm believer that part of what makes our amazing lives so great is the amount of support we receive from other realms. Call it Heaven, God, Goddess, Angels, the Universe, or whatever it is you believe in, but I know that we are not meant to travel along our paths alone and yet there are times I don’t ask for help. So, I am getting back to my daily connection with Spirit (both mine and the Universal Spirit of all things) through meditation and prayer to bring that wonderfully supportive energy back into my life and business. We don’t have to do everything on our own, nor do we have to know how, who, what, when, and all the extra details that go with it. We can simply ask and be open to receive the answer. It’s that simple! So, what could you use a little help with that you have been doing all on your own? Ask, and you shall receive!

I hope that my recent breakthroughs and life lessons resonate with you and open your eyes to your very own blissful breakthroughs. The more I grow, learn, and evolve, the more I realize life is a series of lessons that further uncover our greatness, beauty, and purpose.

May you have a bit of fun, recognize your own brilliance and light, take a few risks, dream big, and ask for help from the amazing and always loving Universe today and always. Things are changing and life is too good to stay in one place and play small. Reach beyond your comfort zone daily and expand into every corner of your greatness and watch as your life transforms into the most amazing ride you never thought possible.

Sending you lots of love,

Lamisha

Transformation, Growth, & Group Coaching for YOU!

April 28, 2014 by Lamisha

If you would have told me 5 or 10 years ago that I would be a business owner with no other full-time income other than my business, I certainly wouldn’t have believed you. I never really wanted or thought about being my own boss as much as I really wanted to love what I do and have the freedom and flexibility in my life to do more of what I love. Seems obvious that being my own boss would provide all of that, but I didn’t put the two together until I realized life coaching was my calling.

Since then, I have found this path to be one of the most amazing and life transforming experiences. I have learned (and continue to learn) a ton about myself, my life, my preferences, and how I work best. I am learning to let go of the old story of success and what that means in traditional society and am stepping into my power more and more every day. I am reaching beyond my previously set boundaries and am expanding my reach, my knowledge, and my faith in the Universe that all things are working out exactly as they are meant to.

I am also stepping into a bit of a new direction business wise that is causing me to learn, grow, and evolve even more quickly. It’s a process and a journey that I wouldn’t give up for the world and I am so grateful for the opportunity to stand in my power helping other business owners and freedom-seekers do the same.

What is a freedom-seeker you ask?

Simply put, it is a person who desires to walk their own path and find (and live) their true calling. They wish to do what they love, stand in that power, and live the life of their dreams…as they see fit. Whether it’s a mansion by the beach or a life of travel, they want to create a life that allows them to do as they please. They want to grow, learn, evolve, and become more of who they are and be comfortable and confident in themselves. These are people who are similar to the ‘purple people‘ in that they feel the call to follow their inspiration and intuition as opposed to logic and reality. Crystal Davis (an amazing, talented, and very creative woman and friend) owner of Poetic Empire posted on Facebook yesterday that “Reality is irrelevant.”(I love that quote!) and freedom-seekers know this on some level and the more they live it, the more they feel their calling and truth.

These are the people I know I am meant to work with because I am one of them. I am proud to say I had the courage to step out on faith and step into my calling, my purpose, and my passion. I have learned a lot on this path and my hope is that I can pass a bit of that knowledge to others who are doing the same.

That is why I have created a program specifically for heart-centered business owners (and soon to be business owners) that are doing work they love. This 3-month group coaching program(beginning in June) provides you the coaching, support, community, and practical tips to break through the blocks and barriers you may be experiencing in your business life. It will help you grow stronger in your confidence for your craft, provide tools for dealing with fear, self-sabotage, abundance issues, address self-care and anything else holding you back. This is an opportunity for 20 people to connect, commune, and grow together with a common goal to stand more fully in their power, passion, and purpose.

I will be providing more information about how to get signed up for this program and the nitty-gritty details about what it entails in the next week or so. So, if you are looking to get your business started or are looking to expand, grow, and stand more fully in your purpose and this is something that you want to take advantage of, please sign-up for my VIP List today so you don’t miss any of the details and deadlines to sign up. I know that this program is going to bring like minds and hearts together to create powerful change and collaborations that will make your business flourish, so if your heart is telling you to sign up, respond to the call and don’t miss this amazing opportunity to grow, evolve, and become the free-flowing business owner I know you can be!
