I found balance for my harder business edge during the work-week by studying spirituality on the weekends. I intuited I had a deep desire to live a more authentic life that intermingled my corporate and my spiritual personalities. The deeper I im- mersed myself in spiritual pursuits, the more I sensed that my Soul had a unique mission to accomplish by being a bridge between business and spirituality.

sona...in other words, my assertive nature.
What is the subtle difference between
assertiveness and aggression? When operat- ing your own business, you often must be assertive. You must be willing to stand up for your personal value while making a living doing what you are passionate about. How communities which thrive on the feminine energy of creativity and collaboration? Often, we see these values clash as many spiritual teachers, healers and wellness pro- they lose sight of their masculine energies.

The problem with losing the masculine- focused energy is that it’s this energetic side that draws in all the cash that you need for your business and your life. If your feminine and masculine energies are unbalanced, it’s inevitable that you will not receive your true you live your extraordinary life journey - of course your work is priceless.
Pricing your services is one of the most
business. The little secret is that when you place an appropriate value on your work, then the clients who truly resonate with your offering will show up. Paying you your value will become a priority for them to get the results they need.
Becoming a successful holistic entre- preneur takes two sophisticated skill sets. and experience you need to be an expert overlooked by holistic entrepreneurs is understanding how business works. Make no mistake that you are running a business to learn and do which are critical to your success. The also often overlooked consid- eration is that these functions can be done by you - but doing them yourself are not the best, most productive uses of your time.
As a novice entrepreneur, you may spend up to 80% of your time on admin- istrative tasks and only 20% of your time successful, but to also live your life’s highest purpose in service to others. Over time, these excessive administrative activities will truly become a drain on your success.
It’s a rookie mistake for most entrepre- neurs in the healing arts to think you can’t afford a business coach, a bookkeeper, an assistant or a marketing person, but, you unless you have these key support people. We all need business guidance in our holis- tic business. Every day, like you, I am faced with the process of valuing my worth, sell- ing my services, managing my business and being present 100% for my clients. Now, I surround myself with a team of experts in the areas that I need help with.
Whether you are a current holistic entrepreneur or are contemplating leaving your Soul Mission, I encourage you to pay close attention to setting your value and cre- ating a business structure that will support it. In other words, don’t just work in your busi- ness but work on your business every day. Please connect with me to explore how to create a strategy to monetize your mission.
