How often have you reacted emotionally to a client’s criticism, a team member’s mistake, or a business setback rather than responding with the clarity and maturity you planned?
Are your emotions running the show in your business? How often have you reacted emotionally to a client’s criticism, a team member’s mistake, or a business setback rather than respond with the confidence and dare I say it, the maturity you were planning. If this resonates, you’re not alone.
Many men and women in business face the challenge of letting emotions dictate their decisions, often without realising it. And it’s easy to do so when you consider how much juggling is happening in your life. When you don’t stop seeing both sides of a situation, your perceptions, communication, and even your immune system is compromised.
Are you biasing your judgements?
Emotions are energy in motion. They’re not inherently wrong, but they only tell half the story. Often, you can get stuck in one-sided judgments—seeing things as either positive or negative—which will bias your decisions and actions. This imbalance can lead to chaos in your personal and professional lives. Acknowledging both sides of a situation creates a pathway to calm and clarity. This is how you gain peace of mind and make better decisions for yourself and your business.
Your worth and value are not negotiable
The same goes for how you view your worth. If you’re holding onto imbalanced perceptions about your value, seeing more downsides than upsides, it directly impacts how you present yourself to clients. You may find yourself deciding for them what they will or won’t pay, effectively shrinking your bottom line. Your worth and value are not negotiable, but you may unknowingly limit your potential if your emotions – caused by past thinking – drive your decisions.
Get comfortable with change
Every emotion that keeps you stuck has a story or judgement behind it. These emotional judgments can be dissolved, allowing you to stop dwelling in feelings of doubt or fear, and instead use them as stepping stones toward growth. By owning your worth, you stop reacting emotionally and start responding more often with clarity, which leads to everyone more able to get on the same page and therefore increase your chances of success. This mindset shift is not just a nice-to-have thing; it’s empowering you to be comfortable with change. It will enable you to lead and grow a thriving business that reflects your innate value.
True life balance is balancing your perceptions
The key to owning your worth is balancing your perceptions and seeing both sides of every situation. Easier said than done right? That’s where utilising someone who is objective can help you shift the overthinking, reduce your stress, and create a business that aligns with your true value and potential. When you start responding instead of reacting, you take control, not only of your worth and value but of your future too.

In order for things to change, the way you look at things have to change.
I work with you and alongside you as your personal life coach. For years I have been studying human behaviour as it’s vital to know what we do and also what we don’t do that stands in the way of our potential.
Being a life coach and facilitator affords me a very unique outlook in the way people live their lives. I’m extremely fortunate to have a set of skills that allows me to dissolve challenges and also the baggage or ‘bags of age’ that we carry around. These literally take up time and space in your life and when these are negative they can weigh us down and create reactions as well as signs and symptoms. Your mindset is that important.
I'm Mandy.
