27 | Why I Spend Money Every Month on a Business Mentor

Why I Spend Money on Mentoring... and lots of it. 

This week, I'm sharing specifically how much money I spend every month on mentoring.

Hint: it's an amount that would have been inconceivable to me a year or two ago.

It's an amount that doesn't feel entirely comfortable. It pushes me, which is part of the point. 

When I first started practicing, I resisted spending money on mentoring and other "business building" things.

I didn't have money to spend, and a lot of these programs seemed scammy and unnecessary. (To be fair, many of them actually are.)

I wanted to focus on working with clients, and I didn't have any interest in being a business owner.

I pretty quickly realized that I do own a business, and simultaneously that I had no idea how to actually run one.

The limits of my own knowledge and experience became obvious.

When I started paying people who know more than I do to help me, things started to change.

Now I think of this money as 1) totally worth it for reasons explained in the episode, and 2) a way to symbolize my belief in myself and my own growth/expansion. When I pay people who are further down the line to help me grow ethically and thoughtfully, I know  I'm saving myself time, energy, and heartache.

I hope having this peek behind the curtains of my practice is helpful for you. Please share your thoughts/feedback below or privately if you like!
