How to Stop Living Small & Unlock Your Creative Power | Rochelle Seltzer

I guess I would just say that it was through all the personal development work that I've done, that I've really...

My first coach had some changes in his life, was doing some traveling.

I found someone else, and now I've been working with somebody for, I think, seven years.

I like working with people who are on their own courageous path of personal expansion.

They... inspire me.

They inform me in ways of thinking that I might not have had.

And that's what I try to be for my clients.

Be that example.

I'm not a guru.

I'm not there.

I don't think we're ever finished growing and expanding.

So slowly as I was doing this work for myself, I was able to step into showing up in a bigger way.

And it's really exciting when you can do it and when you can feel great about it.

But it takes some work.

I believe that the personal growth is maybe accelerated when you build a business.

It calls on you to become something that you might not have been or to develop skills that you had to a higher level.

I think owning a business is a great teacher.

I really resonate with that because I even had this conversation with another coach and saying that entrepreneurship is almost spiritual in one sense because you're having to really grow and learn and upskill and challenge yourself.

That's probably the biggest challenge.

biggest learning curve and so could you share some of your experiences in doing that and when you like in terms of like where you're growing and you're learning and you're really challenging yourself maybe a way how did you overcome this was it just continuously growing you felt that were you overcoming this or are you kind of

I'm glad you brought up the spirituality piece because when I was studying with my teacher, he asked me if I was a very spiritual person.

And I was like, I don't know.

I hadn't really thought so much about it.

And I do think that the deep personal work with a coach that challenges you and opens you up to new perspectives and new insights, and a lot of it, I believe, has to do with the energy that we cultivate.
