Disco Power Up: For Superhero Entrepreneurs

46 A Room of One's Own

What does your full Queendom or Kingdom look like when you determine the laws of the land? How does that get to express itself in your business and your physical space?

45 Your Space is Talking About You

I want your physical location to reflect how awesome it is to be around you, so people who don’t know you yet can tell from a mile away🤩. Make them pause long enough to be curious—hm do I need that thing or service, cuz it sure looks yummy 😋 TLDR: Your space is talking for you, so make sure it’s saying what you want it to say. I see many people making this mistake, not maximizing the return on one of their biggest expenses, rent. 👀Focus on the outside: When people walk by, do they already understand what type of experience they’ll receive working with you? 👀Inside: Do they leave with the feeling that there’s more to be experienced if they come back? I’m a business alignment coach with a background in architecture and community building. I want every aspect of your business to reflect your truly amazing self, including your physical space.

44 Safe to Be Me

Is it really safe to be me? What has it cost me to have cultivated a life of belonging at my own expense? Is it worth gaining conditional entry into a club where membership is easily revoked? What if the revoking is implicit not explicit, delivered in subtle signals with smiling faces? It’s been a heavy load to navigate. No wonder I’m often uncertain or confused trying to read the room. My hope is to be so committed to my own Queendom that the sneak attacks no longer land and stick. This is the real work. Navigating my own sense of safety from the skin I’m in has informed my brand of business coaching. Aligning your business with authentic self means you get to do you in your business just like you get to do you in life. If you are from a historically marginalized class of people, I bet what’s holding you back in your business has roots in this exact question.
