to her clients. You have to be-
lieve it deep inside of you. You
have to be willing to be wild and
crazy. Don’t worry about others.
Don’t compare yourself to others.
You have to do YOU! With all of
the wild and crazy abandonment
you can manage. You have to be
barbarous!
You have to tell the fear to go
away. You don’t have time or
energy for any of that negative
mindset stuff that is holding you
back.
If it were a matter of life and
death, would you be willing to
put in the work to have a suc-
cessful and thriving business? If
it were a matter of life and death,
would you be willing to ask a
potential client for the sale? If it
were a matter of life and death,
would you be willing to put in
the time and effort to shift your
mindset, build your skills, and
learn to be a leader?
It is a matter of life and death.
Remember those barbarians
who had to not get killed? We
still have to remember to not get
killed, every day. Our Spirit dies
a little bit every time we let fear
dictate our actions. Our Spirit
dies a little bit every time we
choose to be conservative and
worry about what others think. It
is a matter of life and death.
I’ve been there. Last year when
my lease was up on my office/
clinic space I couldn’t sign a new
one for some reason. I sat and
listened to my body, my spirit,
and my guides. The thought of
signing that lease and continuing
to run a clinic had me sitting in
the corner in tears. I knew that if
I signed that lease, a little bit of
my Spirit would be dying every
day. I knew in my heart that
I needed to fully embrace the
work that I had been doing with
a few clients that brought both
of us so much joy. I knew that I
needed to embrace being wild
and crazy. I knew that signing
that lease was a matter of life or
death. I chose life. I chose to be
barbarous!
Will you join me? Will you step
into your power and be barba-
rous?
Will you be wild and crazy?
Will you let your wild intuitive
badass self shine every single
day?
Will you tell yourself every day
that today is a day for living and
thriving?
Will you choose life?
