Transcript

 Welcome back to the show. I'm very excited to introduce you to my guest today. Her name is Addison Bowen, and she's a certified hypnotherapist and an NLP practitioner as well as an online business coach. So Addison helps women entrepreneurs create the magical life that they're craving.

More money, beautiful relationships, a dream body, whatever you desire through releasing limiting beliefs and subconscious programs and ultimately getting into action that aligns with those goals. So Addison Blends mindset, work with business strategy, and she specializes in marketing and messaging through her subconscious sales framework.

So this uses organic social media to. Visibility to convert your audience into paying clients. And that is what interested me so much and prompted me to reach out to Addison in the first place and invite her to come on the show, is I really wanted to hear kind of how she's connecting the subconscious work to these like really outward shows of public displays of, you know, putting your offers out there, et cetera.

So . Uh, I was taken by Addison's sort of light energy approach to sharing her work.

I thought it was really magnetic. Um, Addison shoots straight from the hip. She talks really candidly about the topics that she's an expert on, and I love that so much. So I was really excited to get her to come on the show and talk about today's topic, which is mindset and business. And also organic social media funnels, right?

Selling on IG stories, connecting all that in inner work to that outer expression. So without further ado, Addison, I can't wait to get into some juicy convo with you. Welcome to the show. So glad to have you here. Yeah, I am so glad to be here. That was, uh, honestly, that introduction. Just do you ever listen to someone else talk about you and you're like, oh, wow, I'm pretty cool.

You know what I mean? But you have to hear someone else say it. So that was very flattering. Thank you. Good. Well, it's all totally honest. I've been totally, since the day that I met you, I'm like, wow, I really am fascinated by kind of the way that you're approaching all this stuff, because I've been in the online marketing space for a gazillion years, so I've really seen it go from like.

You know, floppy discs and like hyper text markup, language coding to like what we have now, which is like, you know, the click of a button we're communicating across the planet. So it's like we're in a different place. And I do think, as we talked about extensively when I was a guest on your show, I think it's all about energy.

And  you have such a fascinating way that you communicate about that mechanism that's happening with all of us. Right. So before we get into the like quantum physics of, of, you know, marketing, I'd love for you to just tell us a little bit about your journey and how you got to this place in your career.

I know that you're a certified hypnotherapist now, but you used to be a nurse, , so I would love to hear,  a little bit about your background and also, um, I'd love to, I'd love to hear about that moment when you have, when it clicks for you that you can step away from a traditional workplace and step into creating your own business.

. I, um, always like telling the story from starting at the place of being introduced to hypnosis when my mom had my little sister. So I have a 13-year-old sister. I was, um, you know, well into my teen years when she had her. So, um, it was kind of different for me because I had been an only child and then all of a sudden I was having a sister and she, my mom's very into holistic health and healing and stuff.

So she actually decided that she was gonna have my sister, um, naturally without um, any meds or anything like that, or an epidural. And, um, she was like, I'm gonna do hypnobirthing. And I remember like being a teenager, being like. That's kind of weird. My mom's kind of cucko. But, um, being introduced to it and then watching her go through that process and just, um, really all it was about was these audios that she listened to and then going to these classes with her partner to learn about deep breathing and being able to handle the pain.

And it just kind of, um, you know, sent me into like, huh, that's really interesting. It, like, it was like a little, you know, thing that I just, um. Kind of filed away in my mind as like, that's interesting. And then later down the line, I was actually diagnosed with an autoimmune. And I talk a lot about in my content, my, my podcast, a chronic illness and running a business with a chronic illness and just how important it is to take care of yourself and, um, how my business allows me to have the flexibility if I have a flare up to move calls or, you know, to just take care of myself.

And so, um, I myself got really into holistic wellness. And, um, instead of taking medication and hormone replacement drugs, I actually just changed my diet and started meditating and started doing all these things to, um, heal myself. And obviously like that's not gonna be the case for e everyone, but I was really, really, um, fortunate to actually see a lot of changes in my health and, um, you know, learn a lot through the process as well too.

And just started loving, like studying eastern medicine and do going to yoga and meditating and all these things. And so. I was already, you know, when I was in nursing school, going down this path of do I wanna do like naturopathic medicine? Do I, do I like, become an herbalist? Do I become an acupuncturist?

Do I do, you know, I was thinking all these things that were so fascinating to me, but I genuinely didn't know how I could make money doing it, because I'm talking to my yoga teacher who's like, oh, I make $20 from this class, or, you know, I, I have to teach here and then also have this job to be able to support myself.

And so there was kind of this like starving artist mentality in that world. So I was like, how do I do that? And then the pandemic came around and I saw TikTok and was just with someone talking about starting a business and, um, you know, how the online space was so lucrative, lucrative for that online marketing, how you can get seen in front of millions, you know, on TikTok and basically how it's just this free marketing space.

And I was like, huh. So again, it was kind of like something I filed away in my brain and I actually ended up hiring cur to help me start my business. But where I started my business was actually more, um, administrative versus like the front forward me coaching, marketing side of things because, um, you know, through nursing school, and I was still in nursing school at the time, but I had done a lot of reception.

Admin, like a lot of backend tech side of things. Just naturally as I was getting the experience and being on the floor, working in patient care and charting and stuff like that, and so I was like, oh, I can already kind of reflect some of these skills into the online space and help other people with the backend of their businesses and more admin more.

Systems and stuff like that. And that, , led me into supporting coaches and other people like myself now in scaling their business. And I was like, oh, I'm actually really good about good at this. Like the, not only the strategy side of things, but like the, the systems, the operations. Like I was, you know, helping my clients and like a matter of time go from not having any clients to having their first like five figure launch or, you know, hitting their first $15,000 month or, you know, all of a sudden helping these million dollar businesses with the systems and the back end of their business.

And word was getting around that like, oh, you need to hire Addison if you need help with your systems or backend or, um, so I gained all this experience and then I actually had people kind of come to me like, okay, but how are you doing this? Like, how are you building this business? How are you making this happen?

And um, so I started coaching people on the side, like doing strategy calls and stuff like that, which led me to recognizing some very similar. Gaps and pain points in the online space. And I actually started my group program, so all of my transitions happened very naturally. It was like I gained a skill, I realized I was good at it, and then it moved into, you know, me implementing that.

And, um, when I launched my group program, I actually wasn't a hypnotherapist at the, the time. I was basically just helping other people kind of get into the online space and gain clients and stuff like that. And, um, recognized a few,  similarities between a couple of different people. Like I would give, you know, all these skills to these people and have some of them see really insane results.

Some of them, you know, in eight to 10 weeks would be hitting their first 5K month, or would have, you know, all of these clients they were attracting and these other people that were really struggling to show up or struggling to sell or create content because of a fear being seen or because of, you know, just, just these common fears and limiting beliefs.

And I was like, okay, well I don't wanna be the person that just like, you know. Can't support them in that mindset realm. So I'm gonna get certified in this. And that's when the, like the little file in my brain was like, huh, hypnotherapy. It's always been there. Um, and so I actually started utilizing it myself too, for my own fear of being seen.

'cause I had a really hard time like selling on my stories, creating content and just this idea of like, I could be in front of millions basically. So I started utilizing it myself. Um, started utilizing breathwork as well too. And then a couple months down the line did decide to get, , certified and then I just started inserting it into my business.

, and group programs from there. And again, it was just this very seamless transition of I already have this group program, let me start using this, , for free for clients that are already inside and started seeing really crazy results. Some of those clients that were in the program,  are still working with me to this day 'cause they're like, I love hypnosis so much.

Um, and it's just something that like, you know, they've stuck with me on since then. Um, and yeah, that's where we are today. Now I have,  a lot of different areas to work with me from one-on-one, hypnotherapy to, , my group program, like my signature program, mastermind, mastermind, where I really combine like the strategy like you were speaking of and the, , the subconscious work and , basically like.

That's what I'm known for is hypnotherapy. And it's just been really cool to see how in, you know, four years I've been able to go from, huh, this is kind of cool. I wanna do something in holistic health and Oh, interesting. You can make money online to, like, making that my reality and, um, just being so in love with what I do too.

So I would say that aha moment was really like being in the backend of other coaches' businesses and seeing that they were taking a passion and making money from it. And just recognizing like, you know, we complain about having to post on social media or create content, but it's literally a free marketing tool that can get us in front of so many people.

I mean, even there's even free email marketing tools. You know what I mean? You don't say out loud it for the people in the back. I, I feel like a broken record on this. I'm like, I get that. It's a little awkward that everyone's gonna see your face and hear you say that you care about something or that you created something.

It's like a tiny bit unnerving at first. Yeah. But it's free marketing. It's like people pay zillions of dollars to have a. Billboard out on the highway and you could just for free, go online and. Tell hundreds of whoever, many people you can reach. If it goes viral, it could be a million people can find out about your course or your program.

To me, it's like a no brainer, but I do see that there's a huge block there. Mm-hmm. So, yeah, we gotta talk about that. Um, I just wanna point out something that you spoke about that I just wanna highlight for listeners, for myself, for everyone listening, I find it to be a total shame that there's so many incredible healers who are out there doing energy work, doing healing work, doing like holistic wellness practices, who are, who are underpaid and, and not able to figure out how to make their living, or that it's a struggle for them.

It's one of my big missions is to open and widen the pathway for online marketing for those, particularly for healers, because if the world has ever needed healing, it is now. You know what I mean? So it's like, yeah. Anyways, I just heard you say that and I was like, ah, we have to, I. Talk about this and fix this problem.

We need more money. I know we need more money in the pockets of more healers. Um, and I love that. One of my sales pages literally says that like, I help get more money in the hands of more healers. Because most of the, the women that I do work with are those intangible, I call them intangible coaches. They have these amazing transformations, but it isn't make more money.

It isn't, um, you know, find your dream partner. It's like, maybe it's a, it's a deeper healing transformation, but sometimes that can be hard to express in marketing. So that's really what I've become known for, is how do we make this tangible so that you can sign those, you know, four or five figure clients from this.

So I 100% agree and that, and we need it so much right now with everything going on. So, yes, I have, I have so many friends who are these incredible,  people who give you  the gift of life again, you know, like so much healing energy is flowing through the system is you can't put your finger right on it and put it in a neat little box with a bow.

So it's hard to sell. So yeah. Anyways, let's widen the lane there. Um, and I love that you took the time to go before and learn the actual practice by using it in your own life. And again, anyone listening to this, like if you're toying around with a new business idea, this is the way forward is like, figure out what you're interested and curious about, practice it yourself and get to the point where you can help somebody else get that win and you have a business idea.

So before we shift into  deep diving into online marketing, I just wanted to share a quote from your, I pulled it from your website because I thought it really gets to the nature of kinda what we're talking about here and, and I would love to better understand this, so. Um, from your website it says there are two main motivators of the subconscious mind, safety and worthiness.

Your mind wants to keep you safe from a problem or a discomfort, and then it says, IE success. And so deep down it creates a cap for how worthy it deems you of that success and both get in the way of your money goals. And I would love if you could break that down for us a little bit. There's two main motivators of the subconscious safety and worthiness, and somehow that's causing a block.

Can you break that down a little bit? Yeah, so I think of the subconscious mind in everything that I do as the foundation. So if you think about, I'll just use the metaphor of the foundation of a house. If you have, um, you know, this beautiful home that you've built, I. In this beautiful space, like IE your, the goals that you want to create, let's just say like the goals equal the beautiful house you're creating, but the foundation is leaky.

So foundation meaning limiting beliefs or fears or you not thinking, you know, you're good enough, et cetera. It doesn't matter how big or how beautiful the house is, there's gonna be pieces that crumple down, which means like you could have moments where, you know, you pull back in business or you lose your income or where, you know, there's always just gonna be these little holes and cracks that wanna break the foundation of the house down.

So that's the way that I think about subconscious work being the foundation for literally everything. And I think everyone should be doing some sort of mindset, energy, you know, healing any sort of subconscious work when they're building a business because. You're, I mean, not only like reflecting so much of you and your business and your marketing, et cetera, but also to your clients.

You know what I mean? Like the responses you give to your clients are also coming from your own beliefs and as well too, so it makes you a better coach. But the two, um, main motivators that I spoke about in that quote, which is, , a lot of what my marketing is based on safety and worthiness is,  deep down there's these, what I call upper limits in your subconscious mind.

So it's almost like a temperature gauge where I. If you go beyond the temperature gauge, your, your mind is kind of a sounding alarm bells and is like, okay, we're not worthy of this. Okay, you know, this isn't safe for us. And you've created that cap or created that, you know, gauge based on your past experience, your childhood, um, any other, you know, past business successes, anything, any, anyone has said to you up until that point, but mostly from your childhood, from the ages of zero to eight.

And so you create these caps in your subconscious mind of what's safe and what you are worthy of. And then anything outside of that is gonna be hard and your subconscious mind is actually gonna wanna resist it. So your subconscious mind's whole goal is to keep you safe and keep you some comfortable.

So it actually doesn't want you to succeed. It doesn't want you to create success beyond where you are now. This is why like a lot of people thrive in corporate jobs because you're doing the same thing every single day. You know, someone else will come and say, oh, you're worthy of like this. This, um, you know, raise.

So now here, here it is, but you never ask for it. You know what I mean? You're just stuck in that, that same role every single day doing the same thing, which is great. It works for a lot of people, but as an entrepreneur you have to recognize that like if you're not growing then you're, you're kind of dying because so much changes in the online space at all times.

And so again, that's why like the subconscious work and always going beyond those limits and working on these things is so important. 'cause your subconscious mind is gonna do anything to keep you within that, that safety that I mentioned. So I'll just use like a couple examples just so listeners can understand this, but like you might have, um, a launch that doesn't go.

As planned, like maybe you wanted, let's say 15 people inside and you got eight. And for some reason your subconscious might be like, oh, well, you know, because we didn't have 15, that means we're not successful. That means we suck. That means we're an imposter. And you'll feel yourself like pulling back in your content.

Maybe you won't own your wins, maybe you don't wanna talk about it. 'cause you, you think that people might judge you for it. Maybe, um, you know, you actually stop posting for a minute because the launch completely like burned you out or something like that. You know, there's a lot of different ways, or even your subconscious mind is so powerful.

It could be like, oh, we don't feel good, so we're just not gonna create the content today. But really, you feel fine. It's just a way to kind of sabotage you. So the subconscious is always in the background, like running our behavior and. I always like to say that, um, limiting beliefs manifest as behavior or lack of behavior.

So either you're not taking action on something or you are, but it's coming from this like limiting place. And so, you know, you're not connecting with your audience like you could. So I think that overall, you know, when it comes to the safety side of things, just knowing that your subconscious mind is trying to keep you safe, it wants to keep you comfortable.

So the discomfort is the key to growth. And then the worthiness side of things, being that, um, you know, deep down, I think we all have worthiness wounds. We all have moments where we're like, am I an imposter? Am I. You know, um, not worthy of this. Like, can I actually help people do this? Or doubting yourself.

And because of how the subconscious mind works with that action or inaction that that behavior or not behavior, like I mentioned before, you're gonna feel that and sense that in your marketing and the words you use in your body language and how you talk about your things, if you're actually doubting yourself deep down or don't think that you're worthy.

And so a lot of times, um, entrepreneurs can be like, what do I tweak in my marketing? How do I tweak this in my, you know, sales page? What do I, you know, this isn't working. This isn't working, and it has nothing to do with, you know, the actual strategy. It's how you are showing up. Because deep down, you don't believe yourself or deem yourself worthy of that next level of success, or it doesn't feel safe to your subconscious mind.

So the way that you're showing up isn't powerful or isn't. You know, really owning the transformation, like I mentioned before, owning like how good you are at what you do and letting that shine through in your messaging and marketing. So there's a lack of clarity there. Or , a lack of like even sharing wins 'cause they don't feel good enough.

I mean, there's so many different ways it could go, but yeah. So those are the two, the two main things that really block entrepreneurs, especially when it's like going beyond $10,000 months or going beyond something that feels a little bit like out of the norm for them. Yeah. Because they haven't seen anyone else do it, so.

Yeah. Yeah. Oh my God. It's so interesting too, and I think it's as subtle as like how you're, like the glance of your eyes or like the way that you pronounce a word, like the behavior piece of it can be something so subtle, but vibrationally it's communicating. Mm-hmm. I don't believe what I'm saying, right?

Mm-hmm. It's like you're going out there and you're, maybe you're saying something that's you, you feel uncomfortable, but if it's true and you believe it. We can feel that even if you're a little awkward or your grammar isn't perfect or your hair is messy, like that's where I see people get caught up is like this perfectionism of how they look and how they're gonna be perceived.

But it's so much deeper than that. It's a vibe thing, right? It's a vibe thing. It's completely about your literal vibration. Like if you believe something, there's a, there's a strong current of energy coming from that core foundational energy source, but it's like, and it's invisible. So what we see is, you know, this exterior person, the shell that we're in.

But also, just to reiterate something that Addison just said, y'all discomfort is the key to growth. Write it down, put it in your notebook. Discomfort is the key to growth. It's unfortunately so true. Nothing grows in your comfort zone. You have to push past these limiting beliefs. So we have to keep working on this.

So  you're a certified clinical hypnotherapist. Mm-hmm. And you work obviously with subconscious mind. So for the listener who might be new to this idea, first of all, we just got a great explanation of it, but could you talk a little bit about how the subconscious mind might be different than from say just like positive affirmations and saying words out loud?

Or maybe somebody out there who's listening to this has been turned on to like the law of attraction work, and maybe they're working on like raising their vibration to match their desire or maybe kind of working on some of that vortex work. Right. But that's a little more on the mainstream mindset coaching side of things.

Mm-hmm.  Talk a little bit about what the difference is between something such, you know, as surface as like an affirmation versus like the true belief that's underlying it.

Yeah, for sure. , one of my clients who's a manifestation expert, I was talking to her about this recently 'cause she does, , manifestation coaching, but she has a lot of subconscious, um, certifications as well too. And she was saying that she loves the law of assumption more than the law of attraction because there's this idea that like if you have a bad day or you're sad or you know, whatever, that you can't manifest what you want.

But the law of assumption allows you to kind of bypass that and just assume that it's gonna happen for you. So for listeners, if they're into the law of attraction, I, I always like, I love the law of assumption. I think that's a great thing to look into. It's not my expertise, but I just wanted to mention that.

Um, 'cause I thought that was interesting to hear from her. But, um, the difference and, and. I think this is where I get so frustrated with TikTok and like the mainstream manifestation realm that you're talking about. Because I mean, I scroll on TikTok and because this is some of the stuff I talk about, I get the videos all the time that are like, say these affirmations and become a millionaire.

And I'm like, whoa, that's not really how it works. The problem with  you know, some of those videos is they're using that to obviously go viral to create. , visibility and that's great.  And affirmations are so powerful. I never want people to think like, don't use affirmations. I do them all the time.

Um, and I love, I love affirmations. They can be so life-changing for people. Yeah. There's a couple reasons why sometimes they might not work, and one might be that you're trying to say an affirmation that you're subconscious doesn't agree with, right? So you could say like, I'm abundant, I'm abundant, I'm abundant.

But you don't really feel deep down that abundance or you don't have the neural pathways of abundance. Maybe you as a kid, like just had never had the example of abundance, like you struggled or you grew up in poverty. So that's gonna be really hard for you to connect to, unless we're in the theta brainwave state and we rewrite and reprogram some of those things.

So with the subconscious work, the way that it works is we have to be in a theta brainwave state, or we have to speak the language of the mind, which is NLP, which you have to do one-on-one with someone, but. Theta brainwave state is actually really easy for anyone to access here. So for people that do, um, affirmations that want those to be more powerful, you can actually, like right before you're going to bed, as you're slowly falling asleep, you access that theta brainwave state where we have access to the subconscious mind.

So you could be saying your affirmations as you're going to sleep. Another great way, um, to, you know, actually make those more powerful is to, um, relax your body. Do like a progressive relaxation. So like with your eyes closed, you can, um, basically just imagine relaxing different areas of your body or even tense different areas of your body, and then relax it.

Um, or even look up like on YouTube, progressive relaxation. And then when you're in that relaxed state, you can tell that you're relaxed, then repeating the affirmations. Um, hypnotherapy is a little bit, is like. Not a little bit, a lot deeper than that because we're not just saying affirmations, we're actually getting to the root of the problem, rewriting and reprogramming what the, the root of the problem is, and then instilling new beliefs from there.

But for someone who just is like, I wanna start doing this work by myself, really just making sure that you are relaxed and that you're in that theta brainwave state is the, is the key. , so even a lot of my clients will do, , like meditations and then repeat affirmations or, you know, do them. Like I said, at night, as they're falling asleep, that's gonna be way more powerful because when you're just, I'm just saying affirmations, like I say, I'm abundant right here.

Technically I'm just working with my conscious mind. 'cause there's this critical faculty between the conscious and subconscious that is going to, it's, it's, we call it the critical faculty. 'cause it's the critical piece of your mind that's like, that's not true. And it will look for all of this evidence that it's not true.

So I could say that and then I could be like, well, but yesterday I had this bill come out and you know, my savings account went down to this amount. Or you know, well, you know, I have Christmas coming up and I have all these gifts I have to buy. So like clearly I don't feel abundant right now. So you're, you're kind of looking for all this evidence that that's not actually true.

So the way to bypass that again is in that theta brainwave state where we. We basically like, kind of break down the wall of the critical faculty so we're actually able to instill new beliefs.  I'm glad that you're asking me questions so I can like dive a little bit deeper into it. Yeah, yeah. I mean, I think I, so NLP stands for neurolinguistic practice. Mm-hmm. So I just wanted to say that for anybody who's like, what's NLP, I don't know what that is. But basically  my understanding and my use of it is you're reprogramming literally the neuro pathways in your brain.

Mm-hmm. By using language that speaks into. Into reality, kind of what you wish to be true. So if you have a goal, a desire, a dream, a focal point that you're aiming for, instead of saying, I want that thing, it's to say in a positive, present tense, affirmative way, I, I am that thing. Or I have that thing to kind of trick the brain into believing that it already exists so that you can get into the vibrational alignment with that thing.

Is that kind of it, would you say that's kind of it? So neurolinguistic programming actually is different from affirmations. Um, I totally hear what you're saying. Using I am affirmations allows you to kind of be like, I already am that thing and connect to it vibrationally. Yeah. Neurolinguistic programming is actually utilizing the language of the mind and lots of different tools and tactics.

So hypnosis is one of them.  There's timeline therapy, there's, uh, you know, a pattern called swish pattern where we're essentially rewriting limiting beliefs one-on-one with someone. Okay. So there's a couple different. Tools and modalities that are under NLP neurolinguistic programming, like the basic way to say that is utilizing the language of the mind to reprogram, but that is typically done one-on-one with someone.

I actually have, which I could share with you a TikTok video where I go through the timeline technique where people could kind of experience that one-on-one, but. I'll just give you an example. Like with timeline therapy, maybe you have an emotion right now that's really present for you, like anxiety or something like that.

What we do is we can actually go back to the root of when that anxiety started and then release it on your timeline in general. So moving forward, you no longer experience that. There's also a tool where we can completely rewrite a belief that you have and make it a new belief. , and like you said, the great thing about that is that,  the, the mind doesn't differentiate,  true from false essentially, so, right, right.

If in mind we have the belief that, you know, you are abundant, that you can make, let's say like $30,000 months in your business or whatever. When it has that belief, you're gonna start taking action to create that and then also be in a, in vibrational alignment with that thing. So the biggest thing being the action piece, instead of like, oh, I'm not good enough to do that, or, oh, like, that's scary.

You're just gonna take the action. You're just the person who does what they need to do to create the $30,000 month. So I think that's like the best way to, to just describe it as well too. I'm so glad that you just clarified that because I, I feel like, because this is obviously not my area of expertise, but I think about this all the time and I invite all of my clients to start every single day tuning their mind to the frequency that they wanna be in, to be productive, to take action, to overcome fears, to get out there and put their stuff out there and to show up and do those tiny atomic actions that are gonna, you know, become compound interest for their business.

So I feel like, getting clear about this stuff is really important. Um. Okay. Fun question. I, I see this a lot with my clients. I'm sure all of your clients come to you for this. So I wanna ask you, why do you think that it's so hard for people to share their business message online, in the online space?

Like what is the block and the fear that you see in most people? Do you have, is there a specific thing that you see over and over and over again with people? Yeah, there's a couple things. The first thing that comes to mind is what I mentioned before, the safety. That's like kind of underlying everything.

So this can be like either fear of success or fear of failure. But when it comes to sharing your bus business message, especially if you are someone who's worked in corporate or didn't grow up with, like entrepreneurial parents or anyone being an example of entrepreneurship for you, there is this deep down subconscious feeling of lack of safety when you share your message because it can be seen by millions of people.

And so, so your best friend from childhood might be judging you. Yeah. Your coworkers from your old job. Exactly. So either they could judge you, they could pass judgment, or you could say something that people don't agree with. You could get a hate comment. Or on the flip side, this is something that like, I think you know, a lot of people don't realize the fear of success is if you actually create the success that you wanna create, can you hold it?

So that's a big one. That's one I always see again and again. Okay. If I actually. And making $20,000 months. Do I have the ability to hold that and the responsibility of that and the clients that come with that, and the social media presence that comes with that? Or is it gonna be too much pressure? Am I gonna crumble under the pressure?

So you might not consciously be aware that that's happening, but subconsciously that's really what you're thinking because of those caps that we talked about before. So yes. And then the fear of, um, visibility is just like, kind of encompasses all of that. But yeah, I mean it's scary. If you think about, like, I had a TikTok video that kind of went semi vi viral this last month and I've done a lot of work around this, so I didn't feel any fears or anything around it.

But, you know, I did get some hate comments and I'm able to look at it from a very neutral place. But I have clients who come to me, you know, initially that are like, I had one video go viral and I got all these hate comments and you know, like, then I just stopped showing up 'cause it was too scary for me.

So, for some people that's, that's scary and like. That's, that's like the work that we have to do, you know, to continue that growth. Yeah. Oh my God, I love that so much. It's so interesting too because I've been thinking a lot about my 2025 goals and how I'm so passionate about helping more women fully take the step into showing up for their business.

Because it is so easy these days to make a really good living using the internet. Like, it's like it's, I see the pathway so clearly, but I've been doing this for 20 years, so I was like, I, you know, I wanna expand my capacity to serve. Right. It's, it is financial too, of course, but like, money is just energy.

What I really want us to help more women have more success, right. Because I actually believe that that's the pathway to a happier planet. So it's like, I have a one small life here. What can I do with that one small life. Mm-hmm. It's to do big things to help other people expand their capacity to give, to receive, and to, to create a better place.

So I was thinking about the holding of a container, like you were just saying. Uh, and I love the way that you just put it. It's like, yes, I feel like that's the work that has to be done. It's not that I can't sell or I have no problem going online and selling anything. That's something I've gotten really good at.

But can I hold how many women can I hold in a container at once? Like, what would that look like? What, how many emails would I be responding to? Like, what happens when I get a crisis call about my mom's healthcare issues? Like, can I actually hold it? And I've been thinking a lot about that. So I love that you just shared that because that's, that's part of the work, right?

It's, you'll be able to do the selling if you have the space firm, right? Mm-hmm. If you create the firm container to give and receive. It's, it's right there. It's wide open. And you get to a point in business too, and I don't know, you know what range your listeners are at probably all over the place, but where the work is, no longer can I show up and sell this thing.

And it is those deeper things like can I  be a good leader to these women that are inside. Can I. You know, how can I refine my framework so that they get this experience again and again and again. And I, no matter who I bring in here, they see a transformation and yeah. You know, how can I become a better coach?

And, you know, those are the things too that can sometimes stop us from that success we want. Because deep down you might think like, oh, what if again, what if I'm not a good enough coach? Or what if I can't help this person? Or what if, you know what I mean? So that is like the next level of work. And the container thing is huge.

I have a lot of clients where we are working on like holding the space for, for more women and more visibility and, you know, impact. But I love, um, your message as well too. That's why I'm here. And I definitely agree we're creating better. Um. I don't know, just a better world in general with more women who are in a place of purpose.

So yes. Yes. Hallelujah. A woman, I feel like it's happening and we just have to keep on. Mm-hmm. Putting more energy into that bucket, the bucket will hold. Um, okay. So let's talk a little bit about organic social media funnels. I see you showing up a lot in your stories and on threads, and you will share the same kind of funnel messaging and content that some people might put, like fully on a built out sales page.

Mm-hmm. And so it'll have that same kind of rapid, uh, invitation, deeper into thinking about what it is that you're sharing and what you can help people with. Right. And the messages will cascade in the same. Way that somebody's like full, fully built out sales page might if they were selling, you know, if you were inviting people to come look at my sales page.

I see you going into the like, sort of putting it right at the forefront of your connection to your community. So I would love to hear if, like, is that your strategy or can you talk a little bit about what the strategy is there and how you incorporate messaging into kind of the top of your funnel that I think a lot of people put sort of at the back end of their funnel?

Mm-hmm. Yeah, no, that's a great question. So I think it starts by obviously having like very, very clear clarity on who your ideal client is. So yes, um, I think just everyone that's listening, like they can strike gold by just answering a few questions here and get so many content ideas from it. But I would say to my clients, I always ask, what do you wanna be known for?

Um, clarity on their ideal client pain point, desires, and then symptoms that those cl desires. Sorry, those. Clients have as well too. So like a pain point might be for clients that are gonna work with me, like I'm stuck at $8,000 months in my business and I can't go beyond that. But a symptom of that is gonna be maybe they have too many one-on-one clients and they're answering like a billion messages every single morning so they don't feel like they have the space to, to move on.

Yeah. So those couple of things. And then, , also just like what you stand for and what you don't stand for. So tho that's kind of like what I lead my messaging with, but from a strategy perspective, , the reason I'm able to create that strategy is 'cause I can very clearly answer those questions. I could basically tell you from morning till night what my, my I client is struggling with.

But, um, you're 100% right and it's great that you're reflecting that back to me. So. In the buyer journey, there's, you know, bringing someone to awareness and then converting, and then the deciding factor, the middle piece, right? There's that full journey. And, um, so you have to create the visibility. You have to nurture them and build trust with them, and then convert them.

Every single one of my posts basically goes through that full buyer journey. Every single thread, every single TikTok video. Every single, yes. Um. Carousel that I post. Sometimes it's leaning more towards conversion. Sometimes it's leaning more towards visibility. TikTok is leaning a little bit more towards visibility for me.

So I post a lot of like, , subconscious hacks and , hypnosis audios and things like that that will create more visibility. And then other posts that are a little bit more educational to build trust and then, you know, client testimonials  to convert. But on like carousels and on threads, for example, I'm basically taking them through that full buyer journey in one post.

So I'm also, I'm inserting a client win in every single post to build that deeper trust. Yes, I am, you know, have a call to action to convert. I have, you know, maybe a problem awareness piece like. Highlighting maybe why they're not hitting $8,000 months, for example, as like the first bit of it. So that's the hook.

So they're kind of going through that full journey. So they could go through one little post of mine and basically see like, okay, that's the problem. This is how I fix it. You've made this happen before because you're sharing a client win. So I trust you. And that's also how I work with you. So that's really how I go through my, my social media.

So I'm not having to, you know, I don't know, think about the buyer journey from like, am I posting problem awareness, content? Am I doing this? Am I doing this? Like, marketing is so nuanced and I'm really thinking about like, how do I make it as simple as possible by helping people in my audience understand that they have a problem, that I'm the gap to that, and then converting them from that one post.

So I can go deeper into that if you want to, if you have specific questions. But I think, well, so first of all, I love that we're talking about this so much. This is literally exactly why I wanted you to be a guest. So I just wanna break this down. I. Just a tiny bit more quickly for people listening. So if you are using social media as a part of your funnel to bring new clients, customers into your world, to get to know your product or service, and to make a sale, the traditional mechanisms, let's go back to a time before the internet.

You somehow advertise that you have a solution for a problem. That's the beginning of the whole thing. And you invite people to come and get to know you. You spend time nurturing them and building trust. They now they're at a point where you present them with an opportunity to make a decision about, right, this is a part of the funnel.

They have to decide yes or no. I want to purchase, you know, the next step with you, whether that's buying a product or coming into a container, or whatever it is. And then you're obviously gonna  overdeliver on the value that you promised and make them lifelong return.

Clients, 

all of that stuff is typically drawn out amongst multiple different platforms. So when we get into social media, typically your social media is just that first tip of the iceberg part of the funnel. You're like waving your hands out in the wide open world. It's like the wild west and you're out there on TikTok like, you know, point dancing and cartwheeling and like lip-syncing and like trending and whatever you're doing to get people to notice you.

Once they notice you, then you could introduce that you are somebody who has a solution to their problem. Typically from there, people are trying to move that person off of social media and into a deeper container. Whether that's your email list, come check out my website, come to an event, get my freebie.

 There's a point there where we ask people to take another step with us off of social media and into this other world. And then typically what I'm seeing a lot, and I think it's dying, and I, that's why I wanna point this out, is there's this nurture phase where there's sort of like a heavier weight to lift than is necessary where we spend all this time like trying to convince people that we have the solution to their problem and trying to figure out the right way to , get them to come in and, and make a purchase.

And sometimes that process can take weeks to months, to years mm-hmm. To convert a client. And what I'm seeing Addison do is. Condense that all down to like a single post on social media. And so if you guys are what, after listening to this episode, go follow her on Instagram. You'll see what I'm talking about.

And she just explained it, which I'm so glad. So you're saying you literally have the entire five stages of an traditional funnel in one single carousel post? I would say three to four. So the awareness, the nurturing, and then. They either coming to a decision or going to my stories and then coming to a decision.

So yeah, like two to three, because obviously post-purchase that you're talking about, the over-delivery is gonna happen once they're working. Yeah. So like the first couple phases. Yeah. Um, because I think that, you know, traditional marketing is like, like you said, it's just the awareness piece where it's like, here's five reasons why, you know, you might not be hitting a 10 K month or something.

But then it's just this full education. Yeah. And there's not any, well, let me build trust with you or let me be like, nurtured through this post. Yeah. So Exactly. Um, but I will say that I also have, I, I call these touchpoints because I also do have traditional funnels. I do have a freebie funnel. I do have, um, you know, lower level like offers through my TikTok.

I mostly sell like a $28 offer. And a lot of people will join that offer and then, you know, they're nurtured to the point of buying down the line. But most of my high ticket sales, I would say like 85. To 90% of my high ticket sales are coming directly through my Instagram carousels, and then my stories, people responding to my stories and then selling them directly in the dms without a sales call because they've already come to that place of like, yep, I need this.

I'm in. I just have a few questions potentially. So, right. I do mitigate a lot of questions. I mitigate the sales call through doing this. Um, and then allowing, you know, still having a few things like a freebie funnel and um, a masterclass and also like a, you know, that lower level offer, um, still allows people that might need just a little bit more, or might need to see like, okay, what, what does hypnosis actually do for me?

Let me jump into this $28   offer and build a little bit more trust with you. Oh, awesome. Like, I saw value from this, so now I'm, I'm ready to join a retainer or to join a group program. It does, it's just another touch point in like my full, you know, funnel and overall how my social media works and converts for me.

So, yeah. That's great. That's so awesome. I love how it's. Simplified too. And I mean, obviously it requires doing that deeper subconscious work and understanding exactly how, like having the answers to what am I known for? And, and those questions that you put forth. Um, but, but then once you get to that point, when you take the time to clarify, this is exactly how I wanna show up, who I am, who I'm gonna serve, what they need, and how I'm gonna do it, it's, it eliminates so much unnecessary, like, friction filter friction and filtering out things and yeah, it's just getting clear on those things.

It's such good. That's so, so good. And I think, um, the, the subconscious work is obviously great for rewriting the limiting beliefs and, you know, owning our message and all the things that I was talking about before. I will just note that, , a lot of my marketing also, I mentioned that 88 to 95% of all communication is subconscious.

I don't think I mentioned this before. So, , a lot of times, you know, like I mentioned before, people will think there's something wrong with their marketing or their messaging when in reality, you know, there is something in their subconscious like that, deep down lack of safety or fear or doubt in themselves, imposter syndrome, fear of visibility.

So when we're able to go beyond that, that's where the magic really comes in. 'cause we're combining, you know, the powerful words and the clarity they have in their message with like, oh, I can do anything that I want and I can, you know, create a million. Views this month. If I want to, I can just go after it.

There's no, you know, friction there. And then I think on the flip side, the subconscious work actually brings more of that clarity. I had a one-on-one client this past month who was really struggling with like, do I niche down? Do I not niche down? Maybe I wanna go this direction. And we did a session together and really just like honed in on that being, , our focus for the session.

And she left literally saying like, I feel like everything's coming together. I totally understand like what my message is, why I'm different. And so then she's able to. Bring that into her marketing. She immediately signed a one-on-one client from TikTok. She immediately, like, we launched this group program in like five seconds.

She's got people inside that already. It's not even starting till January. So we're able to take that clarity that we also bring, you know, without the filter and the noise and the limiting beliefs, just like truly who you are speaking to your subconscious, and then bring that into your messaging. So it, it just really, it builds that foundation and the subconscious and then we bring that into your marketing and messaging.

And it's really beautiful to see like how fast that can unfold as well too, when you just own like, I'm the best at what I do. I'm gonna like, show up like that and I have clarity in who I wanna help. And, you know, the strategy gets to be really simple as well too. Yes. I love that so much. 

 Okay, so we talked about this a little bit when I was a guest on your show about how literally everything is just energy, right? Money is just energy. Words are just energy. Food is just energy.

And we get to choose how we wanna work with that. And so I'm curious if, let's say I was a new client of yours, what would a session be like if, let's say I came to you and I was feeling really blocked around, you know, selling my core program or being able to get past a certain monthly money goal. What, what does a one-on-one session look like?

Like how do you work with your clients and just kind of gimme a sense of what a session looks like? Yeah, so most of, um, clients, my clients that are coming into my Higher Ticket group programs where they get, you know, lots of access to me, where we're working one-on-one, whether, again, that's the group program or one-on-one coaching, I take them through an audit.

So we first audit your business, so marketing, sales, um, systems. Just, just so we make sure that there's not any blocks, roadblocks, whatever you wanna call them in your business strategy. 'cause that's so, so, so important. So sometimes, you know, I find my clients just don't have the product suite to support what they wanna create in their business.

Sometimes it is a marketing thing, sometimes it's a visibility thing. So we just really highlight like, where's the issue in, you know, getting to the next. Phase that you want to in your business so we can implement right away. Um, I always talk about on my stories that I have a 14 page business business audit that my clients kind of roll their eyes at at first, and then we do it together and we're like, oh, this makes, you know, we have the immediate like thing we need to work on or the couple of things.

, and then on the flip side, I also do a subconscious audit. So one of the questions that I, , ask my clients, and I have them journal on which this is something anyone in your, , audience could do as well too, is, , to think about the goals that they have. So whether that's, let's say hitting their first $10,000 month or retracting a certain number of clients or, you know, whatever it is.

, it can be monetary, it could be even just like, I wanna feel really happy. It could be anything. , and basically they just. Journal on, and I can give this to you as well too if you wanna put it in the show, show notes, but they'll say, you know, we'll use $10,000 months as the example. I wanna make $10,000 months, but I actually don't want to because, and I just have them kind of free write on this.

So I want to do this, but I actually don't wanna do this because, and a lot of times, you know what will come up? I even did this with , $50,000 months with myself just 'cause I wanted to see like what comes up. And it's like the first thing that comes to mind is, well I don't wanna do that 'cause I'm gonna be working constantly or I don't wanna do that because I'm gonna be.

Blah, blah, blah. Or I don't wanna do that because that means, you know, I might not be able to handle my money. Like, it's very interesting to, to see, just consciously you can learn a lot about those beliefs right away. So that's one of the first things I do with them. And a lot of times we do know, okay, there's something that needs to shift around how you view, you know, work and what you think about work and making that much money.

Or there's something that needs to shift around, you know, how you view yourself and the transformation that you provide for your clients. And we take that into hypnosis sessions and then actually work on that and dive deeper into that. , so that's a really easy way to like understand where some of those limits could be.

Because what we don't realize is that when we have those limits or those beliefs around money, for example, let's use like what I just said around, . I don't wanna hit that actually, because I'm gonna have to work a lot. We make that a self-fulfilling prophecy in our business, right? So you're gonna notice, like you already work a lot.

You already are at your computer 24 7. Yeah. You already are like constantly with your clients. And so you've made that a self-fulfilling prophecy and you believe that you can't have spaciousness and make more money because that's a belief deep down. So we're able to not only tweak things in the business strategy side of things, like, okay, well here's how we actually create more spaciousness.

Here's how we tweak your habits to allow you to have more space and realize you can actually make this more this money. But then also addressing like, where did this come from? What's the root of this belief? And let's shift it. So we're kind of hitting those three, , birds with one stone, but in an actual session.

. Hypnosis session, we just start with something that we're working towards either a goal or one of those things that we uncovered in the audit. , or, you know, like a, let's say one of my clients right now is in a launch, we might focus on like the launch and anything that's coming up around that. So we're showing up with clarity throughout the launch and like, you know, really clear marketing and showing up really powerfully.

And in the session, if it's one-on-one, I actually talk to you and talk to your subconscious mind the whole time. So, , we do the relaxation portion that I mentioned before. It's called an induction to actually get you into that theta. Brainwave state, there's a couple different, you know, tips and tricks and tools that I have to make sure that you're actually in that state.

So we're speaking to your subconscious mind. And then the therapy portion can be like a number of different things that I do. I can either speak to parts of you that are still holding onto a belief I can, we can do, you know, just rewriting belief. I mean that it, it's hard to explain if you're not actually in a session.

'cause it also, goals, like how we take the session, but., as an example, I had a client last week who, , is she's working towards consistent $20,000 months in her business, and she's really been working on like honing in on better habits for herself, eating, you know, better throughout the day and, , you know, consistent gym, going to the gym and stuff like that.

And I always say that taking care of yourself in that way is a money making activity. So we're really working on like, rewriting a lot of those, , those habits that she has. And so we actually spoke to the part of her that feels like she can't be disciplined in doing those things every single day. And, , we were able to bring some stuff forward from like her childhood that kind of led her to have these specific habits that she has now, which is like,  you know, I don't have to go to the gym, I can just bypass that.

Or, you know, I don't need to brush my teeth right now. I'll do it later. I'll put like my business first. And so essentially like. There's this idea, 'cause of her childhood, she always had to put other people first. So she puts her business first over herself. So we're able to, you know, speak to that part, rewrite and heal some of those beliefs.

And then, you know, work on the flip side of like, let's envision what it's like if you're the person who just is, you know, has these amazing habits who just, goes to the gem three times a week. Even if it's just three times, maybe it's five, but it's okay if it's either let's, , envision that you're the person that makes breakfast every single morning that's high protein and feels good and makes you feel so good and like really, you know, rewriting into the person that it just shows up that way.

And um, it was really cool what came through in the session as well too. 'cause she had this very clear vision of. What that looked like and what that looked like sustainably for her. And then she's able to immediately implement. And so you'll actually notice after a session like that as well too. You'll right away have, you know, things come through the next morning, you might wake up earlier and you might make it to the gym.

You might, you know, just all of a sudden be like, oh, it's so easy for me to make this meal because, you know, that's what I envisioned. , and she had also her subconscious, I always say like, you know, does this part of you or does your subconscious have a gift or does or have something that it wants to share with you or a message?

And , the thing that came through for her was that she was worth like. Doing those habits that it was worth her taking care of herself first, which was such like a beautiful emotional moment for her as well too. So she leaves with this like, I'm worth it. This feeling of like, that is a moneymaking activity for me to do that it's actually more beneficial to my clients if I take care of myself first.

And it's crazy how, you know, something like that also ripples into so many changes in your life. Like you don't think, oh, if I have the habit of eating better and working out that that's gonna change my business. But it completely changed. It's just one thing changes, you know, so much in your business from that's the money to, you know.

So I know I, on a tangent, but I really wanted to give like context to what, where we can take a session based on Yeah, no, I'm so glad you went on that tangent because you brought up some, really some stuff that is a big part of my program and how I work with my clients. Like we have, I have them. Check in with me about regular daily habits around their health all the time.

It's like so different than a traditional business coaching program because I know that if they're feeding their body something that's gonna like, like eliminate toxins and light their cells up, giving them more energy if they're taking care of their, getting the rest that they need, getting the exercise that they need, just giving themselves, prioritizing their own self-care is going to give them, you know, so much more energy to show up for all the different things that they're gonna be doing, not the least of which is getting in alignment with your own beliefs and being able to show up and do the, the sales piece of this.

So I love that you talked about that and, you know, prioritizing health is such a huge part. I think it should be just right up there with accounting and like any other thing that you do inside your business, self-care should be at the top of the list and so, so, so important. . I have to say, honestly, I'm so fascinated by this and I've never done a.

Session like that. So I'm really, really interested in this. I'm, I'm so glad to be talking with you about this sort of subconscious work.  I think you guys listening, the big takeaway here is like our brain and the mind is such a super power. We have a super computer sitting on top of our shoulders that we have the potential to expand beyond our wildest imaginations if we allow ourselves to.

So, you know, getting more clear about these things that are holding you back, getting more honest with yourself about where you might be blocked, and looking for ways to reprogram that is a powerful, powerful way to get into the flow with your business and whatever else that you're calling into your life.

  Do you have a piece of advice or something that you would share with  a person who is really considers themselves to be a new solopreneur, a new entrepreneur where online business or any kind of business feels kind of scary still and feels like there's so much to learn.

They're on sort of like the upward trajectory of consuming information and content and just learning. What advice might you give them or a strategy, or maybe it could be like a daily mantra or anything that could help them as they're getting started on their business journey. Yeah, I think. If they already know that they have a purpose, let's say, and they really wanna bring that to the online space, or maybe they don't even quite know what it is, but they really wanna help people.

I would say just repeating that your work and what you bring to the table is valuable. I think that's something like everyone can just repeat every single day. But I think also, um, just realizing that the, the strategy portion of. You know, business can be really simple. And I think, um, just allowing themselves to like start small by just sharing some educational pieces about, you know, on, on social media and letting their voice be heard just in small ways, whether it's a carousel or a static posts and you just sharing your words or, you know, taking some videos where you're just sharing, you know, some pieces of you.

I think that's so, so valuable and it's gonna be a little bit scary when you're starting, but like, not overthinking it, just allowing yourself to share. You can even get into. Chat GBT and be like, this is what I wanna talk about. Can you give me some content ideas and like, run with that. Um, but I would also say like, prioritize the mindset side of piece, like that, that's number one.

So whether you go to, you know, my podcast or you search hypnosis on YouTube or meditations on YouTube, I would say like, visualize every single day what you want your business to look like or what you want your, um, you know, life to look like in six months, 12 months time, you know, a couple years down the line, what do you actually want your business to look like?

Because if you spend even like 10 minutes a day or 15 minutes a day visualizing like what that looks like for you, it's gonna make. Getting there that much easier and getting into the emotion of it too. So let's say you wanna be someone that just like works from their phone and, you know, helps people or whatever, like how good does that feel in your body?

Like, get into the emotions and  visualize it to a t as much as you can in your, in your mind. Like that's reprogramming in and of itself just doing that visualization. So I would say like, take the time to do that and like, let it feel good and focus on the good feelings as well too. And then just start like, just start sharing because you don't have to have everything figured out at the beginning.

I definitely didn't. I was just like, I, I believe this. I'm gonna share it online and like, try not to overthink the strategy at the beginning and, um, just let your, let your voice be heard. 'cause that's, it gives other women permission to share things, but it also like gives like that inner child or, you know, the part of you that scared, like permission and safety in speaking your truth and your voice and stuff like that.

So, yeah, it's so true. I, I published a podcast this morning that was about kind of overcoming imposter syndrome and I was sharing that. I have, my birthday is this Thursday, and I decided kind of late in the game, just very casually, kind of lazy launch style. I was like, I should do a promotion around my birthday and like open up my containers and kind of like see where I can play with some messaging and have some fun with like a birthday, uh, promotion.

And I was like really into it and excited about it in the creative piece of it. I was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, this is gonna be so fun. And then it came time to actually hit send on like the first email or like publish the first piece of content. And I had this sort of like, I don't know how to explain it.

It was just like an energetic sh like tightening that I got. I got nervous. I actually, and I've been doing this for so long, it's so funny when I get that a little tiny bit of self-doubt creeps in. But I, I, I, the reason I even bring it up is because it literally happens for every single person. Like people in this industry who look like these big gurus, like famous names, celebrity entrepreneurs, you know, published authors, celebrity actors, like.

Name a person who you think is like so slick and has their shit together. So, and they're making like huge amounts of money and they, you, you know, everyone looks up to them and they just seem so cool. Those people experience lack mentality, self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and all of those same energetic kind of cramping or tightening frequently just like the rest of us.

Like they're human too. We all feel it. And the, the what sets successful people apart from those of us who maybe don't make as much money as we want to or wherever. You know, what, what, you know, kind of sets the people apart who are winning in that race is that they push through the fear, they do the work to get more clear.

They get into messy action. They take action even when they feel scared and vulnerable. And they, they take risks and they push themselves out into that, you know, vulnerable space. And I think that's, that's part of doing this subconscious work is practicing kind of. Greasing the wheels a little bit.

Mm-hmm. So you can start to get out there more and start to overcome those, those discomforts and those fears, because all of the magic happens when you push yourself a little bit beyond that comfort zone. Mm-hmm. So  I'm really excited about listening to some of the things that you shared.

So let's talk about your, you have a couple of gifts for the audience and the listeners, .  One of them is an is called the AWARE Masterclass, and then the other one is a new audio that you were just talking about before we jumped on the recording. Do you wanna tell us a little bit about those two freebies?

Yeah, of course. The last thing I was just gonna say to your point about those fear, fears and stuff that come up is I like to call those ascension symptoms where like we, we look at fear and anxiety and you know, all of those things as like, that's bad. I should avoid that. 'cause it's, it's negative, uncomfortable, right?

It's negative and they're not bad emotions, it just means that you're getting closer to your goal. So that's the last little wisdom I'll, in part like, if you're starting a business and you're feeling that just like lean into it and keep, keep going, keep doing it. Like you said with your little sale, you still had some of that come up.

I still have fears, but it's like we learned to look at that as like, oh, this means that I should do this. It's not out of alignment, it's just, it's just a little bit different or it's a little fear, you know, I'm a little fearful 'cause it's new or you know, 'cause I have a little bit of doubt and that's not bad.

Yeah. And , a big thing that helps me move past it. Is to think about that person who is out there who I could help start their business. Mm-hmm. You know, I mean, there's a woman out there who is listening, who's thinking, I really want to be putting my idea out there, putting it into the type of packaging and operation that could bring in an extra couple thousand, 5,000, $6,000 a month.

Like that money is life changing. Yeah. And it's like not a small thing. If I can overcome my fear and I can help another human being out there, get into alignment with their idea and start opening up their heart and opening up their, you know, setting up the operation to be able to receive that could change their life, then they could go out there and change somebody else's life and  it's a chain reaction of transformations that make our world a better place. So, it's important work to push yourself past the fear and take action because you're helping other people do the same thing. So it's powerful work. It is really powerful. So yeah, tell us about your, your, the offers that you have for us.

Yeah, of course. So, I, um, give you access to the AWARE Masterclass. That is the tagline for that is make people aware that they need. Your transformation and have them pay thousands of dollars to work with you. So basically it goes through a high level view of what we just talked about, um, where we go from that, you know, lack of awareness to awareness and conversion.

And so I talk a little bit about the subconscious mind in that as well as content strategy. Give some advice on like how to actually create content. , and then we also talk about, , messaging as well too, like making your messaging just a little bit more tangible for people who might be healers. So it's a really good masterclass to like start and just kind of learn a little bit more from me at a deeper level.

And then the, um, audio that I sent you the link for as well too is called A Millionaire Mindset Audio. It's not just focused for people wanting to, you know, make millions in the online space. It's really just about cultivating like a good mindset around money as well as it's just really empowering to listen to like every single morning before you start your workday, like you said, to really get into that vortex or mindset of like,  you know, confidence and just feeling really good as well too.

So, um, that is just a little hypnosis audio that if they sign up through that link, they'll get access to right away that they could listen to every single day and see shifts in their subconscious. It's a little bit of visualization, a little bit of affirmations, but because I'm taking you into that relaxed state at the beginning, we're actually gonna be speaking to your subconscious mind in that.

So I love it. I cannot wait to listen to that. I'm like, I'm gonna go cue it up as soon as we get off this call. Nice. Um, I thank you so much for those gifts. I can't wait. And I'm assuming that that gets us on your mailing list and that gets us in your world and we can learn more about upcoming programs, opportunities to work with you.

If somebody wants to find you, what is the very best place for us to go find you? Is it online on Instagram or is it TikTok or besides those things, yeah, I would say the best place to connect with me, especially if you have any questions, is Instagram or to sign up for one of those. And then if you get on my mailing list, you can actually respond to my emails and connect with me there.

So either way, whatever, if you're not on Instagram, one of those offers works better and then um, you can actually email me. So yeah, either way, but, but Instagram is um, at it's Addison Bowen. I'm ladies and gents. I'm gonna link to all things Addison Bowen in the show notes. You're gonna get the masterclass, the audio ways to get on her list, follow her on Instagram and TikTok.

And I think honestly. Add this to your daily atomic habits, like think about your subconscious programming. Get, get curious right about what is going on underneath the hood. If you are feeling blocked, if you're feeling stuck, if you're feeling like you want something really badly, but you just can't quite get there, take a minute to go beneath the surface and look and find out, is there something limiting me in the way that I believe what my worth is, what my value is?

What, what is possible for me? Am I putting a cap on my possibility and then 

 Start moving forward and start taking action that gets real results every day. And I think a lot of it is this  deeper subconscious belief system. So Addison, I'm so thankful that you spent this time with us today. You are a real one girl. I'm so grateful to have you here.

Anything else that you wanna add before we say goodbye? Last thing, I guess I would say is just that, um, for people that are working with you, either in your group programs or whatever, hypnosis is always a really great thing to add to what you're already doing. So you don't have to work with me on a business level to see value in, you know, doing hypnosis every single day or doing a one-on-one container with me.

I think the people that I see have the most success are doing both, whether they're in my group program and mindset containers, or they're in another group program and they, you know, just decide to add hypnosis and or just subconscious work in general into their, um, their work already. I know you do a lot of energy work and you know that mindset work already with them, so that's great.

But I always just like to tell people, like, don't be afraid to reach out if you're already working with someone, just to add, you know, a few sessions into what you're already working towards, just to help you. Again, like you said, streamline, pull away the cobwebs and just get there that much quicker. Yeah, absolutely.

That's such a good point. Yeah, there's, I mean, as you're putting together sort of like your toolkit for how you wanna show up and how you wanna take action every single day, it's great to be tapping into all the different places that you can get support and, and build out like a really strong, energetic container so that when you show up, you have that confidence, that vibrational energy that is attractive and magnetic, that we talk about that all the time.

It's like magnetic messaging and mm-hmm. You know, having this confidence or whatever. But it's, it's, it's really, it's a, it's an inside job. Mm-hmm. It's an inside job. It's all about you. Like caring enough to, to ask yourself that difficult question of like, am I okay? Do I actually believe I can pull this off?

You know, it's like you could be the most trained and studied and certified and prepared person in the world, but if you don't believe in what you're bringing to the marketplace, people are gonna sniff that out, you know, and they're gonna, they're gonna sense that energetically. So this is so good. All right.

Well, thank you so much for, for being with me today. I am, I'm looking forward to sharing this with everybody. And you guys, if you have questions for Addison, you wanna send them to her directly, do that, definitely go to the show notes and check for all of the links so you can get in touch with her. And everyone listening, thank you so much for being here with us today.

And as always, my beautiful friends, get out there, shine your light,  just keep moving forward. And until we meet again next time, may you be vibrant.
