Think about all the things you want in life that you’ve not yet achieved:

A promotion or a (more) successful business. 

Happy relationships

Freedom to choose who you want to be, what you want to do and where you want to do it

Now think about why you haven’t achieved those things (yet).

I bet you can name a handful of reasons why you haven’t achieved the things you want.

I bet they sound like really plausible, straight up and down, water tight reasons.

The thing is, they’re all excuses.

For example:

• The kids are too young
• I’m not smart enough
• I’m too old
• Other people depend on me
• I haven’t got the money to invest
• I haven’t got the time
• I don’t know how

Don’t get me wrong, they’re good excuses.

They serve a purpose.

They’re doing their best to protect you from failure, harm and hurt.

Every excuse or reason you can ever give for not getting what you want is there because on some level it doesn’t feel safe to want what you want.

Because your brain literally can’t tell the difference between: 

 – The way you feel about being ‘different’ or standing out and a sabre tooth tiger attack.

 – Your desire to be in a loving relationship if you learnt as a child that there is always a price to be paid on the love you receive so it feels like an impending volcanic eruption.

 – Deadlines feel like cougars waiting on low hanging tree branches.

– The risk of failure feels like a potential avalanche.

Your brain is desperate to keep you safe from all the lions, tigers and bears (oh my!)

So what do you do?

Good news is, you’ve got options, here’s two to start with:

1. Stay where you are, accept your lot and be cool with that – maybe dial back on the stress a little further by doing less and wanting less.

OR

2. Learn how your body and mind communicate, befriend the stories that keep you awake at night and choose to step into your potential, knowing how to navigate the stressors whilst you let go of the old gunk that’s holding you back.

This is where I come in.

I work with creative, ambitious, optimists that want to value themselves more, who no longer want to shade their brilliance and are excited about the possibilities – it’s just that there are hesitations, you’re not quite sure how to let go of the blocks and limitations that seem to follow you around and your body seems to be trying to convince you that this is ‘it’.

We’re going to unlock another layer of your potential and there’s a couple of ways we can do that:

First you have to decide – I’m based in Sheffield. Are you prepared to travel to me? Or would you rather not and work together online?

My studio is located in south west Sheffield with great access from London, Manchester and the surrounding area. It’s a tranquil and welcoming space.

Sitting on the edge of the beautiful Peak District makes this a great base for full day and half day masterminds and retreats – the open spaces of Burbage and Stanage are only 10 minutes drive away, whilst the beautiful Chatsworth estate can be reached in around half an hour.  

I also run monthly Business Masterminds from here. If you’re local to the area and looking for business support and community you can find out more here: https://carrieekins.co.uk/mastermind
