✅ My 2-Step Process for CONQUERING ANY FEAR
✅ The Relationship with Money and how it affects business
From the Desk of James Wedmore:
The fastest way to grow your business isn't just more ads, a better funnel, or the latest Instagram Algorithm hack...
...don't get me wrong! Those things will HELP, but they ain't the fastest.
The fastest way to actually grow your business is to finally face the fear you've been avoiding.
I've said it for years:
Too far outside of your comfort zone, too much fear present in your system, you will FOLD, RETREAT or COLLAPSE.
And I don't care WHERE you are in your business, EVERYONE has a battle in front of them. A battle with FEAR. The question is...
...are you facing it?
Now... I can over-simplify the fears business owners face into one of two categories:
For the new entrepreneurs: it's a fear that this won't work. This manifests as a fear of FAILURE, or wasting time, or looking stupid and being judged.
For those that HAVE made something work and have seen some success, this tricky thing called FEAR changes...
...it changes into a fear of LOSS.
"What if this stops working? What if I break it? What if this was all a fluke? What if this all comes crashing down?"
This FEAR is a frequency that holds you back. It causes you to manifest the very thing you don't want.
This is why fear is the GREATEST killer of business, performance and your dreams.
And if you take a course or program on business and marketing growth, NOTHING will truly help if you don't conquer fear FIRST.
So, what actually is FEAR?
Fear is the physiological response we experience in the body when we actually BELIEVE what we DON'T want to have happen... will happen.
It's the manifestation of the unwanted. And it's the most powerful force that makes this illusion convincing.
And that's why it's the KILLER of dreams.
But here's the good news: fear is also present in your life the closer you are to what you want. At the edge of the old life, the old paradigm and the ways, the Ego uses fear as one of its last ditch-efforts to keep you safe, stuck, and in the familiar.
That's why learning to recognize and face fear is ESSENTIAL. It is required.
"But how?!"
Well... let's not make it so hard, ok? It's actually so simple, and today I'll give you a powerful 2-Step tool for assisting you in conquering fear. Ready?
Step 1: Get Honest - get honest with the specific thing you are most afraid of. Like, "I'm afraid people will think I'm not cut out for this." That honesty is POWERFUL.
Step 2: Accept it. Be OK with it.
...don't believe me? Just try it, but there is something so silly and magical about just accepting the possible fate of the thing you fear. If you are AT PEACE with the thing you fear, you stop fighting it, you don't resist it. THAT takes energy. Energy you need!
When you can get to a place of "so what?!" you are back in your Power.
So what if they don't like me?
So what if it fails?
So what if I make a mistake?
WHO CARES?!
THAT IS DETACHMENT. DETACHMENT gives you your Power back. And in your POWER... anything is POSSIBLE!

Fear and Money
Fear also gets all tangled up into our money stuff. I'll never forget a client telling me how they struggled to grow their business, simply because they were afraid that they weren't deserving of the money they wanted and others would judge them for it.
So sad. Yet so common. Quickly I got her to see that money is a TOOL to create more impact and serve at a higher level. It has NOTHING to do with "being deserving" at ALL!
She "got" this and it "clicked." But sadly, even when most people conceptually understand this... they don't really GET it. This is why it is so CRUCIAL that you do the DEEP WORK around healing your Money Relationship. Otherwise fear and lack continue to drive the bus. Kate Northrup is the PRO at this.
