Warning For Mention Of Sexual Assault

This podcast is such a treasure to me because I get to speak to the most groundbreaking women who share their incredible stories and oftentimes their lowest, most vulnerable moments with me that not only change my life and my perspective on things but they also in turn inspire you.

In this episode, Anthea and I talk to positive psychologist and global success coach, Niyc Pigeon.

So I made my first million dollars - easy, right?

Can you hear me laughing through your screen? No - there was nothing easy about reaching this million-dollar milestone. I struggled a lot in my career as a microblader and permanent makeup artist and learned a lot. I'm still learning things. You never really stop, you know? We will always make mistakes but it's the fact that we LEARN from these mistakes that really makes the difference.

This is part one of the 10 mistakes I made - so once you're done with this episode you can go on to the next! Now let's talk about the first 5 mistakes I made while making my first million dollars in the beauty industry.

ARE YOU READY TO STOP HATING YOURSELF FOR LIVING IN THE BODY YOU WERE GIVEN AND START LIVING YOUR BEST LIFE?

Ladies, we are spending WAY too much time getting down on ourselves, critiquing ourselves, and letting fear keep us from really getting out there and reaching our goals. Just imagine, for a second, if you could erase every second of self-judgment and self-hate from your past. Imagine every second you looked at yourself in the mirror and thought "no I can't wear this" or "no I can't do what I want looking like this," "no they wouldn't hire someone like me," "they won't listen to me if I look like this," "I wish I was different" just vanished from your past. Now imagine how much time you would actually be left with to DO all of the things you stopped yourself from doing.

Do you see? We stop ourselves from succeeding all the time. We have everything in us to get what we want but we have all gotten so used to beating ourselves up and crumbling under...

DO YOU TAKE RISKS IN YOUR BUSINESS AND IN YOUR LIFE OR DO YOU JUST TAKE THE EASY PATH?

Do you believe that you can grow through hardship or do you believe that it will only break you and tear you down?

Listen up, ladies. Today we're talking about mindset and the power mindset has to make you successful. I know, it's hard to believe that something so simple as mindset can impact how successful you are in the beauty business but it's true. We're talking about the mindset that ALL successful people have and how YOU can have that mindset too.

I'm here because I want you to succeed and I honestly think that the key to unlocking that success is growth mindset over fixed mindset. If you're unfamiliar with these mindsets, fear not, because me and my kick-butt cohost Anthea are here to share all of the secrets with you so that you can unlock your true success through your mindset.

Did you know that the mindset of achieving your fitness goals and the mindset of achieving your business goals go hand in hand?

I know, my mind was blown when I realized it too. But fitness and business are not dissimilar. In fact, they take the same levels of determination and discipline.

If you don't already believe me, Anthea and I are here to prove it to you.
