Why 99% Of People Are Scared Of Success
Are you scared to be successful?
This was a question that came to me 2 months ago, and surprisingly my answer was yes.
It kinda shook me because I was like, “Why would I deny myself of the life I want?”
But I realized the hard part about being successful...
And when I say successful, I mean aligned with your values. I mean being the vessel for the messages you’ve been tapped to deliver, I mean owning your full power.
I mean sharing the energy that is pouring out of you, even when you’re scared to. I mean honoring the curiosity that’s begging you to tap into it.
The hard part about allowing this shift to happen is that then you have to TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR LIFE and ownership of your uniqueness.
And you wanna know the pain that comes with that?
You have to sit with and move through identities of being a victim, being defined by a path someone else laid out, being small and being powerless.
Which requires several ego deaths, lots of letting go and lots of self-acceptance to hold space for that level of power.
So it makes sense why the majority of people avoid this and why my nervous system was resistant to making space for this newer version of me.
Since my initial question, what’s felt most empowering is to unlearn the shame that made me feel like I was bad, a burden, weird or too much because of my desires, my mistakes, my curiosity or the experiences that influenced me.
And when I sat with my inner child and asked him, "How can I acknowledge you?"
He responded back, "affirm the parts of me that are different, honor my intensities, let me play. Appreciate my imperfections."
Woooooooo. What a message.
So if you too are feeling called to lean more into your power, I invite you to sit with the following 2 questions.
(And I encourage you to approach these questions without shame and without invalidating your trauma. But to lovingly acknowledge your power.)
- How have I participated in creating my current reality?
- What good fortune do I ignore or deflect as a way to maintain my identity of not-enoughness?
In service to your liberation 🙏🏾
Lots of love,
Kyle

Hi, I’m a creator
I go to use my voice but it feels stuck. I go to say something important but I stop myself. I feel resistance in my gut. I feel resistance in my throat. I feel resistance in my heart. Have you felt this way before? What’s there? And what can we do about it? These are some of the most important questions to answer to create a business that feels good and attracts the right people. So I’m going to expand on the questions in this email. A feeling I’ve had for a lot of my life is that if I speak...
This blew my mind… You ever have a time where you were freaking out about something and then you calmed down and the next step became clear? It fascinates me how a change in perspective and emotion can impact how we see a situation. So I want to share some things that can help you approach situations in ways that are productive to your life, business and the impact you want to make. What would happen if you rewired your mind to see problems as opportunities? What would happen if your body...
A necessary part of growing your transformation business... As a coach, therapist, consultant, healer, etc... Is having an offer that gets you excited, and also is super desirable for the type of person you want to work with. Most people have an idea for their offer and they're good at what they do. But often their messaging falls flat... Usually it's too vauge and doesn't do justice to the magic they offer. And if this is you, you know it's important to upgrade your communication... So you...
