The most expensive thing I ever did was take advice I paid a lot of money for.
$3,500 a month. To be told to hide the most interesting part of myself.
Two months later my sales hit $0. š¦
Let me back up.
Iāve rebranded my biz more times than I can count. Every time, I was just trying to figure out what would sell. I couldnāt land on a niche to save my life. At one point my bio literally said āI help women find their purpose passion & prosperityā š (lol as if that means anything)
Things finally clicked when I stopped chasing what would sell & started bringing the stuff Iām actually obsessed w into my biz. Human design. Kabbalah. AI. Skool. W/in a few months Iād made my first $10k online.
I thought Iād made it. So I hired a $3,500/month coach to scale me to the next level. And because Iād invested so much, I told myself I had to do exactly what she said or it wouldnāt work. š
She told me to stop talking about human design. Said it was confusing people.
So I listened. I outsourced my authority. And the business went silent.
I went from my best month ever to absolute crickets. I kept punishing myself. Felt so ashamed. Like something was fundamentally wrong with me.
This isnāt on her. Itās on me. For listening to every guru telling me to niche down. I niched down so hard I became a basic a*s vanilla business coach and bored myself to tears.
So I started talking about human design again. And the business took off.
What I wish someone told me 5 years ago is you donāt have to dumb yourself down. Your audience is smarter than you think. You donāt need separate containers for every part of you. All your weird obsessions can live under one roof.
Nobody in the spiritual space is buying your wall of testimonials. Nobodyās buying the watered-down version of you. And nobodyās gonna accept you until you accept yourself.
So if youāve rebranded more times than youād say out loud, I get it. But your next breakthrough isnāt in a fancier designer or a 5-figure mastermind. Itās already in you.
Comment SKOOL and Iāll send you the video where I go deeper into how Iād build a Skool from $0 in 2026 with Claude artifacts. š¤
