Big business dreams? This one’s for you 🌟

I’ve recently started shifting my attention from manifesting to receiving. You might be thinking, “okay, so what?” but there’s actually a profound difference between the two.

We don’t always consider it this way but often, when we’re in “manifesting mode,” we’re perceiving what we desire to be outside of us. Separate.

We’re over here. And that thing we want? It’s over…there.

But when we move into receiving mode, it’s a totally different energy.

Think of a radio. There’s always music playing even when it’s off, you just don’t hear it. Turn on the radio —the receiver— and you hear the music that’s there waiting for you all the time.

You didn’t have to do anything to receive that music. You simply turned the radio on and tuned the frequency to receive the music you wanted.

How can you do that in your own life? How can you switch into receiving mode?

Start by tuning your energetic frequency— how’s it going to feel when you achieve that thing you desire? Start embodying that energy now and you’ll begin drawing those very things to you.

✨ Here’s an exercise that’s been helping me make this shift:

Close your eyes and imagine that thing you want or goal you’re pursuing (this is a great time to think of your next big business dream!)

Imagine you’ve achieved your goal. How does it feel? Do you feel elated? Content? Powerful? Whatever it is, really feel that emotion as if your goal has already been met.

Now, bring more of your senses into it. What will you eat or drink to celebrate your achievement? Actually imagine that taste! What will you be wearing?Imagine the feel of the fabric. What music will be playing when you celebrate your goal? Hear the song in your head. Who will you call to share the good news? How will the conversation go?

…paint this mental picture with as many details as you can and use this exercise to get into the energetic state of receiving what’s already out there waiting for you.

Remember: every action you’ve taken in your life, every goal you’ve achieved in your business, ALL started as an idea in your imagination.

Plant the seeds and let the magic —your magic— emerge.

✨ Not everyone knows that I started my portrait photography business at age 50.

When i planted the seeds of a portrait photography business, I had no idea where it would lead but if felt really right and really good to me.

And the more I’ve honed my craft, the easier it’s become to have people in front of my camera— putting them at ease and capturing the glowy parts of themselves even they may not see.

12 years later that little spark I decided to pursue has grown into a thriving business, doing what I love— proof positive that any idea you have can become reality.

✨ And that it’s never too late to become who you might have been.
