EPISODE 106:   5 Limiting Beliefs Holding You Back From Selling Your Services

If there’s one thing I know, it’s that heart-centered, service-based coaches, creatives and entrepreneurs struggle with sales conversations and selling their services. You might even think that client attraction is your #1 biggest problem but I’m here to tell you that you actually only need to talk to one single person to create a client. And yet, if you’ve got “issues” when it comes to offering and selling your services, that could be the very thing getting in the way of you making money doing what you love! It's time to settle in for some real talk about the hot topic of sales as I uncover an empowering new perspective on your relationship to sales and money (making it and spending it!) that will allow you to have conversations, make offers, be visible, and tell people what’s available to them while still feeling like a heart-centered business owner running a human-centric Biz.
