Overcoming Your Fear

What you’re about to read wasn’t learned in school and doesn’t come from someone else’s program. It was discovered, mined, refined, and lived into success as I worked to find what mattered most to me, having left acting and modeling (not knowing how or why I might have aimed for the stars, but didn’t) and entered a clinical psychology graduate program at the California School of Professional Psychology.   

I came from “nowhere,” meaning my parents were upper-lower class, unambitious, and only remotely attached to the world. Carrying that with me imbedded psychological limitations and actual damage that polluted, strained, and disadvantaged the actual real success I had achieved. 

As I studied various aspects of psychology and excelled at my yearly clinical internships (which even included the Los Angeles Police Department and California Institute of Technology in Pasadena) I began to dig ever deeper into what my clients described was holding them back -- whether professionally, academically, and/or socially) and what I found myself calling “The Fear of Being Fabulous.”  

The Challenge: The vast majority of people, maybe even you, recoil from owning all that they are. They shrug off compliments, avoid asking for a promotion, duck away from new social opportunities, etc. Why? Usually because they learned to play themselves down in childhood and need help in growing into all that they are now.   

The Solution: Most people appreciate and welcome being prodded to notice and then change their difficulty with owning all that they are. This often requires investigating childhood and/or teen programming.

Social Proof: Countless clients have thanked us for upleveling their internal self-respect, allowing them to work toward and/or accepting a major advancement and/or promotion. Other clients have benefitted from help with their relationship skills whether in business or in their private life. 

If this rings a bell with you, and you are considering doing something about it, but don’t want to invest in personal coaching, DO check out our inexpensive 12=part audio workshop “Overcoming The Fear of Being Fabulous” www.OvercomingtheFearofBeingFabulous.com/workshop
