If you are the face of your business, work with clients 1:1 or in high touch programs you will know that your own personal energy really impacts on your business. Mastering our energy is key - it really does fuel our business and therefore our success.Today I'm sharing three tips for energy mastery to fuel your success:1 - Separate your energy from the energy of your business (my 3 Day Business Energetics Challenge will help: http://alignandattract.com/challenge)2 - Get very curious about exactly what supports you to have high personal energy - and take action on those things.3 - Look after Future You. In times of high energy - take action that create momentum which can flow into times of lower energy.You might want to take notes on this one. I bet you'll get at least one reminder you need and a new idea sparked!Share your insights with me on Instagram: http://instagram.com/kerryrowettPart 3 of the Online Business Paradigm Shift Series is coming VERY soon.You'll hear from Emily Osmond, Suzy Ashworth, Erika Cramer, Suz Chadwick, Rebecca Saunders + Katie Chappell - and you're going to LOVE it.Part 1 is here: http://alignandattract.com/blog/123Denise Duffield-Thomas, Leonie Dawson, Kate McKibbin, Tina Tower, Annie Gichuru + Anita Siek.Part 2 is here: http://alignandattract.com/blog/124Clare Wood, Tash Corbin, Ruby Lee, Annie Gichuru, Victoria Gibson and Brigit Esselmont of Biddy Tarot.

Ain't no secret that there has been a lotta shifts in the online business space the last couple of months. I was recently invited one a great conversation on a podcast where I joined a few other incredible online business owners in discussing the shifts we're seeing, what's working, what's not working, and also how we've navigating through this interesting moment in online business.   So I thought I would do a separate episode here to share my biggest insights shared on the episode with y'all here!   If you want to catch that group episode, where I along with Denise Duffield Thomas, Tina Tower, Kate McGibbin, Annie Gichuru and Kerry Rowett chatted, you can do so here.   ___   PSST. I am running a free live masterclass next week, on the 5 secrets to create more visibility and sales through content. It's gonna be an epic 60 mins. Join us here www.wordfettigroup.com/livemasterclass  

If you are feeling some uncertainty, doubt, fear or worry at the moment - you're definitely not alone. Focusing on how to navigate the paradigm shift we're in and evolve your business when SO much might feel uncertain - that can definitely bring up Your Stuff. Feeling all of this - I was guided to facilitate a Reiki healing for you today to shift out of a space of feeling uncertain into the energy of certainty.We can know exactly what we need to do in our businesses and at this time that answer might be: evolve your business to better meet the needs of your clients in today's energies. But just KNOWING what to do is NOT the same as doing it. Instead of going ahead and making changes - you might feel stuck, triggered, lost, confused, overwhelmed - unable to take much effective action at all.This is where I see healing work to become essential in supporting you in your business. Deeper than working on your mindset, energy healing work can really support you to come back into your authentic power so you can feel clearer and more objective, make better decisions and then take aligned actions.Join me for this short Reiki healing and let the magic unfold.After you've shifted your energy - that's when you can make better decisions about your next steps.Here are two options to support you in taking those steps:Income Increase Workshop - I'm running this low-cost workshop on Wednesday 12th June at 2:30pm Melbourne/Sydney time. I first ran this workshop in 2022 when cost of living pressures started to hit and this is a fresh version for 2024. We look at four options for increasing your income with lots of specific, practical examples. This is for you if you're feeling a bit stuck, want some quick wins and to move into action and the price point is super supportive if you're keeping a tight eye on your expenses. Join me here: http://alignandattract.com/increaseCatalyse Your Paradigm Shift - If you want to get super clear on exactly how you do support your clients to create the kinds of outcomes they now desire - I can help you get really clear on that in one 90 min session. I take what feels like a mess in your brain of "I'm not sure," "but I can do so many things," "I don't even know how I do get client results" etc (I've heard it all!) and sort it all out for you into a clear signature framework. We'll then look at how you might refine or create an offer based on your framework - and communicate that with your clients. Of course we'll do some healing work too if that's what's needed to get you clear. This is for you if you have an established service-based business and know you need to make some changes but don't know where to start. This is a GREAT place to start - truly.

Ever been in a room where everyone looked like you, but you still felt out of place? This week, I sat down with racial equity coach Annie Gichuru who candidly shared her experiences as a black migrant woman in Australia and the challenges she encountered navigating the space. She draws from her personal journey to craft transformational sessions teaching racial equity to online entrepreneurs, shedding light on the covert racism that persists even in the most unlikely spaces.We also delved into the thick of DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) and the unique hurdles people of color face in the online business world. Annie's insights help debunk common misconceptions about DEI and highlights how even our best intentions can unconsciously bolster harmful systems.Finally, we waded into the delicate territory of language and how it can be weaponized to perpetuate systemic oppression. In our discussion, Annie dissected the contexts and misuses of terms like 'woke', 'racism', 'apartheid', 'white feminism', and 'critical race theory'. In her bid to foster understanding, Annie shared her groundbreaking project, the Racial Awareness Glossary, and her plans for an inclusive language course. Tune in for this enlightening exchange as we confront these critical issues head-on.You can find Annie on…Website https://anniegichuru.com/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/annie.gichuru/Want more from Dr. Raymona?Instagram https://www.instagram.com/drraymonahlawrence/LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/drraymonahlawrence/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/drraymonahlawrence/Thank you for listening!~Dr. Raymona

Today I'm joined by the incredible Annie Gichuru to talk about a topic that is not only very close to my heart, but one that is crucial for business owners to find more understanding around as we strive for a more inclusive world. Having come across Annie's work as I was looking to do DEI (diversity, equity and inclusion) work, I enrolled in her course called Represented, which I found eye-opening, uncomfortable and changed who I am for good. Annie is a racial equity coach and consultant for online entrepreneurs, and has helped many prominent business leaders build intentionally inclusive businesses. She is deeply passionate about representation through a racial justice lens, and combines her experience as an internationally certified life coach, love of storytelling and extensive career as a Human Resource specialist to deliver a transformational online program for all business owners who are ready to build a racially diverse, inclusive and equitable business.In our conversation, Annie shares her previous 15-year history in Human Resources, where she discovered a lack of real discussion around race in the corporate world. The heightened conversation following the public execution of George Floyd in 2020 prompted Annie to step into the gap and start having these important conversations.Though we live in a modern and ‘progressive' world, there remain systems of exclusion that exclude marginalised people from financial opportunities and services. Annie describes how people of colour have been held back historically, and how this causes them to have to work extra hard for financial freedom and stability. She emphasises the importance of becoming equitable in our practices so that we are giving people opportunities where they may otherwise become stuck simply due to their identity and the colour of their skin.While many people are afraid to enter the conversation on race and inclusion, Annie reminds us that no human is perfect and that life consists of making mistakes. She encourages us to be willing and open to learn, and to approach the work of inclusion with curiosity rather than fear.The journey towards racial equity may be uncomfortable and challenging, but it is necessary for creating a better world. I hope this episode gives you a new perspective on embracing curiosity and learning so you can be part of paving the way for a more inclusive and equitable society.LINKS:Book mentioned: Caste, by Isabel WilkersonQUIZREPRESENTED CourseWhere to find Annie:Instagram: @annie.gichuruWebsite: https://anniegichuru.com/ Where to Find Bec:Website:https://straightupbookkeeping.com.au/ Instagram: @straightup_bookkeepingFacebook: @straightupbookkeepingLinkedIn: @straight-up-bookkeeping

I see people that look like me EVERYWHERE. In clothing shops, models, ads, in business, as mums... everywhere I look I feel like I'm a part of the conversation.. I'm included.. that I belong.But for so many other in our country (and the world) they don't see themselves represented.

So, you know I talk about creating a Legacy of Abundance, oh only all the time.  Well today I want us to talk about a really important aspect of that which we've never spoken about before: creating a Legacy of Equity & Inclusion.  As mothers we are the gateway to the next generation.   Our kids are watching us, absorbing our behaviours and our values and this gives us a really exciting opportunity to shape them positively and pave the way for a more fair, more just society with the next generation. But while I might be the expert on money mindset for mothers, an expert on diversity, equity and inclusion, I am not.  That's why I am so excited to be joined by DEI expert Annie Gichuru on today's show.  You're going to adore Annie.  She just has this way of making this work so tangible and so accessible.  Yes, even for us busy Mama business owners who already have many demands on our time.  Annie has so many great tips and advice for us - no matter our personal situation, stage of business or cultural background - on how we can be bringing a little more intentionality around diversity, equity and inclusion to our personal lives, motherhood and of course business.   You're going to love her suggestions on doing a personal audit, being mindful of the cultural and racial diversity we expose our kids to, cultivating diversity in the content we consume, how DEI isn't the corporate box ticking exercise you might have previously thought and how it is relevant to you even if you're a solopreneur or it's just you and one assistant and so much more. Let's talk about motherhood, business and cultural and racial diversity.  Yes, they are all intertwined, my love.  And growing an inclusive business, actually starts at home.
