The Secret To Following Your Calling
Shhhh. It’s a secret.
Want to follow your calling? Embody your voice.
You know you want to succeed doing your heart’s work and making a difference in the world. That thing – a calling – you’ve got it. It whispers your name in the night, tugs at your soul, and tells you to do things you’re scared to do. So you resist.
But there it is again the next night, next day, next week. Still, you resist.
You know that if you don’t follow that calling, you’ll regret it. You already regret the time you’ve spent serving other people’s dreams (except your kids’ dreams – you love serving your kids’ dreams).
You take a few steps into it. It’s scary, and different, and hard. You back off.
I can’t, you say. I don’t know enough. I’m not good enough. I don’t have enough credentials and certifications. Who am I to think I can _______ ? (Fill in the blank with your calling.)

How To Handle Sales Rejection With Grace
by Ariana Newcomer
Have you ever gone into a sales conversation with a prospective client DREADING the whole thing? I have.
The fear of rejection is a powerful one, and it is what stops most women entrepreneurs from getting more clients.
Rejection can trigger deep, core emotions, and even make us feel our survival is in question. We learned to avoid situations that could cause us to feel threatened this way – to protect our tender, inner selves.
As entrepreneurs, however, we have to grow past these self-imposed limitations. I’ve written before about “Business As A Transformational Journey.” Getting past and transforming our fear of rejection in sales conversations is crucial to our success.
We need to let go of what one of my mentors calls “spiritual stubbornness,” too. For spirit-driven entrepreneurs, fear of rejection mingles with the story that money shouldn’t even be part of what we do, which can cause almost total paralysis, along with big time resentment and the pain of not succeeding in our deep purpose.
I can’t tell you how many times I hear these stories from my clients: “I shouldn’t charge for what I do because it’s my calling,” or “my gift” or “I should just be giving this away if I’m really spiritual.”
As we shift into embracing money as part of our spiritual path, along with using the strategies I’m going to give you today, we open up wonderful possibilities for ourselves – not just in our businesses, but in all our relationships, and in our spiritual dimension as well.
Growing in this specific area helps us let go of old patterns of self doubt and feeling unworthy that we definitely don’t need to carry around anymore!

Great! I’ve got 3 strategies for you to step into your power in sales conversations when you feel threatened by rejection.Continue Reading
3 Secrets Of Highly Effective Coaching
by Ariana Newcomer
Do you challenge your clients to step outside their comfort zone so they can grow?
Do you ask them to do things that you know are scary for them? Do you request that they get things done in a really short amount of time? Or straight-out tell them that a story they’re telling themselves is keeping them stuck?
Actions like these challenge your clients to step into their growing edge, move past their fear, and surprise themselves with what they can actually accomplish.
As coaches, these actions challenge US to stop being so nice, playing it safe, and worrying about what our clients think about us (common issues for women that hold us back in business).
If we’re not challenging our clients this way, we’re at risk of losing them. We’ll have a hard time charging and getting higher fees. But most importantly, we’re actually failing our clients. They hire us to help them create transformation. Transformation doesn’t happen when we’re comfortable.
So, how do you challenge a client to be more and do more than they thought they could, without feeling like a bully?Continue Reading
Why You Need To Add VIP Days To Your Business
by Ariana Newcomer
I love doing VIP days with my clients. Here’s why YOU need to add them to your biz:
- You can implement them immediately, and use them over and over again.
- Give your business a quick infusion of cash anytime you need it.
- They are flexible – they give you so many different ways to offer services that are easy to deliver, and that clients will pay for.
- Use them to increase the value of your programs and trainings, by offering them as a bonus.
- Get a specific result FAST.
- Increase your credibility and status as an expert.
- Make more for your time.
- A VIP Day is something that’s easy for clients to say yes to.
What is a VIP Day?
It is concentrated time – just one day – with one person (or a group), focusing on a specific topic with very structured content.
A VIP Day can go in-depth on your topic, or you can do an overview. You have the time to deep-dive and co-create with your client(s) in a way that is magical and transformational.
VIP Days can be in person or virtual. Each has its benefits.Continue Reading
