My 3 Truths for Living Your BEST Life

 
The 3-Day Workweek Podcast with Cailen Ascher - 2019-01-09 - PROMO IMAGE - My 3 Truths.png
 
 

At the end of every podcast episode, Lewis Howes asks his guest a question called “The 3 Truths”.

Essentially, he asks them to imagine it’s their final day on earth and all they can leave behind is a piece of paper with their “3 truths” on it -- the 3 things they would like to leave as their legacy for the world to remember them by.

This got me thinking…

What are my 3 truths?

What would be the 3 things I would share on that piece of paper in hopes of leaving the world a better place for my family, my friends and my community?

I was sharing this with my husband over a delicious breakfast at a great restaurant, Parc in Philadelphia, when he turned the tables on me and asked, “So, what would your 3 truths be?”


LISTEN TO THIS PODCAST EPISODE:


Here’s what spilled out of me:

  1. You create your life.

    Every thought you think. Every dream you have. Every action you take are building your life one piece at a time. You have ultimate creative power. If you don’t like what you see, you can change it.

  2. Trust.

    Trust life, trust yourself, trust timing, trust your dreams. Just trust.

  3. Life is supposed to feel good.

    This existence isn’t meant to be a struggle. We aren’t meant to be in pain constantly. We’re here to learn, grow, expand. And, yes, FEEL GOOD! This is our birthright.

So, now (you guessed it!) I’m turning the tables on YOU.

What would your 3 truths be?

Don’t overthink it. Grab a piece of paper or open up your journal and see what spills out of you when you consider the question.

Then, please share your #3truths with me and the rest of our glorious community inside the 3-Day Workweek Facebook Group. Can’t wait to see what yours are!

The 3-Day Workweek Manifesto (for you, by you)

 
The 3DWW Podcast (1).png
 
 

I’ve been realizing that my little 3-day workweek has taken on a life of its own.

What started as a personal choice for myself, my family and my business back in January of 2015 has since transformed into a shining beacon of “success on your terms” for nearly 10,000 women.

So here’s the deal.

→ I want to give you the steps to make a 3-Day Workweek (or whatever ideal working situation you desire) your reality.

→ I want to empower you with the tools you need to create epic success on your terms.

→ And, I want you to boldly stand for (and go after!) whatever “success” means to you -- whether it be big and glorious and 7-figures or cozy and serene and totally taken care of.

With those goals in mind, I realized that we as a community needed a unifying force. Something for all of us to gather around, stand behind and share with the world.

Hence was born The 3-Day Workweek Manifesto :-)

We are a global collective of women entrepreneurs who prioritize lifestyle above all else.

We want abundant full-time income & part-time hours.

We want to do the work that lights us up, while still being present for ourselves, our loved ones and our lives.

We dream BIG and take inspired action toward those dreams every day.

We want flow and ease as we create our own version of success - one that lights us up.

We desire an abundance of time, money and energy for all of our desires and priorities.

Every day we aim for growth and expansion.

Every day we aim to be a better version of ourselves.

We seek both personal and professional development.

We are women - mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, friends, business owners, change makers, founders, leaders, creatives, visionaries.

We realize our dreams matter, and we understand that our dreams are meant for us.

We want to feel good in the realization of those dreams -- every step of the way.

We know that by living in alignment with our dreams + desires we are making our maximum contribution and setting the best example we can for future generations.

We create our lives.

We are making a difference.

We are changing the world.

This manifesto flowed out of in the dark early morning hours before my meditation. I see it as a living document -- something that will grow and change and evolve as we grow, change and evolve. But for now, I think it’s pretty darn good :-)

Stop Pushing + Start Receiving :-)

 
The 3-Day Workweek Podcast with Cailen Ascher - Stop Pushing Start Receiving - Promo Image.png
 
 

I hope you are thoroughly enjoying this holiday week and are giving yourself time to relax and reflect before the new year arrives.

One of the things I have been exploring as I set my intentions for 2019 is how can I set myself up to push less and receive more.

It’s an interesting thing to think about considering most of my life was about achieving -- getting straight As, making the Varsity tennis team, getting into a “good” college, running a successful business (must achieve 6-figures!) and ultimately trying to be the best at everything.

That was an exhausting way of living. I was short tempered, tired and rigid. I literally couldn’t accept support. I can do it myself -- and better!

Since becoming a mom to two little girls, I’ve been cracked open to a softer, more feminine way of being. A way that feels less structured and more fluid. Less regimented and more trusting. Less pushy and more receptive.

When I focus on what brings me joy and peace and fun, I feel good.

When I focus on achievement and striving and winning, I feel closed off.


 

LISTEN TO THIS PODCAST EPISODE:

 

 

I wish it could always be this simple -- focus on what feels good and that’s that -- but because I’m human, I’m reminded on a daily basis of my humanity.

I snap at my girls or my husband.
I spiral with self-doubt when a potential project or client falls through.
I judge myself and my body just because it’s an old habit.

But, I now also have the ability to witness these human moments in a larger context. I’m able to see them as a call to expand -- a chance to shine the light of awareness on an ancient groove that’s no longer serving me so that I can fill it with love.

Every day we have the opportunity to move in one of two directions:

  1. Toward our Truth (our desire, our light, our highest self)

  2. Toward fear (self-doubt, judgment, worry, guilt, lack)

I know which way I want to move. And knowing is the first step. Knowing takes you out of default mode and into the intentional design of your life.

It takes you out of pushing and into receiving.

Here’s the truth…

You’ve got everything you need already within you at this very moment.

So, there is no need to push. Simply open to it. Receive.

May your days be merry and bright, and may you always shine your light :-)

Seem fun + helpful? I hope so!

“The more I niched down, the better business got!” with Missy Kai

 
The 3DWW Podcast.png
 
 

I am so excited to have Missy Kai joining me this week on the 3-Day Workweek Podcast. Missy is an awesome past client and dear friend who is totally rocking it in her business. She helps busy, active professionals to improve mobility, relieve pain, and reduce stress. Specifically she specializes in creating personalized treatment plans, based on holistic yoga and bodywork therapies for healing mind-body-spirit.

Missy has several certifications and over 2000+ hours of combined therapeutic training and experience in yoga, breathwork, meditation, Ayurveda, functional range conditioning, massage, nutrition, and anatomy. Since founding Missy Kai Yoga in 2017, she has served thousands of students, who love her systematic yet intuitive approach to treatment. Her offerings include private sessions (both in-person and globally online), group classes, workshops, special events, online courses, and mentorships for other yoga teachers. In her free time, Missy likes to relax, play drums, and do acro yoga on the beach with her friends.

Missy has taken a really interesting approach to finding her ideal client, and how she works with them once. You’ll get a glimpse at how was able to niche down in a way that has allowed her business to skyrocket, especially in a such a crowded industry like yoga. She also gives some great advice for anyone who is feeling like the industry they are in is too crowded.

Listen to my interview with Missy to learn…

  • how her business really grew (and continues to grow) from her own inner work

  • why meditation is one of her daily non-negotiables

  • the systematic approach she used to build her business

  • her advice for beginners and those in a crowded market

I am so excited to introduce you to an amazing friend (and past client) of mine, Josee-Anne Sarazin-Cote. She is a prolific lifestyle blogger, author, speaker, podcast host, and all around inspiration.

The Secret to 6-Figure Success :-)

 
The 3-Day Workweek Podcast with Cailen Ascher - The Secret to 6-Figure Success.png
 
 

I remember back in the early days of my business thinking that there must be a “secret” that 6-figure business owners all understand. Because, at that time, I was struggling to make a part-time income working full-time hours.

And you know what -- I was right!

They did know something that I didn’t...and I’m sharing that secret with you today because I bet you’re wondering the same thing I was.

This secret is so simple that it may seem silly when I share it, but it’s the KEY to reaching the 6-figure level in your business. Believe me -- I know from personal trial and error.

The secret is…

6-figure business owners believe 100% in their dreams.

That’s it. They believe so much in their dreams that they are non-negotiable and therefore inevitable.

If they hit an obstacle or things don’t turn out the way they envisioned, they don’t give up or doubt themselves or sulk. They think: What can I learn from this? What can I do better next time? What is something else I can do to achieve this goal?

Now telling you to believe in yourself and your dreams is one thing.

Giving you the tools to enable that occur is another.

So, I’ve got 2 tools for you that will foster your self-belief and help you create the life of your dreams, and they are available to you right here and right now.

1. Mindset

Your thoughts create your world. So if you’re vibing in a place of self-doubt, worry or lack -- guess what’s going to be showing up for you. More things that confirm those feelings. If instead you make a conscious choice with each passing moment to focus on the good that surrounds you (no matter how small), more good will begin to flow into your experience.

Without your mindset on board, 6-figure success will continue to elude you. (Believe me, I know from personal experience.) Before we can upgrade our finances, we must first upgrade our internal wealth consciousness. Replace negative thoughts with positive affirmations. Replace limiting beliefs with reasons why your dreams are meant to be.

P.S. Your dreams are meant to be, by the way.

2. Community

Your network is your net worth.

You are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.

So, what does your community (or lack thereof) say about you?

Are you surrounded by high-vibing, BIG dreamers with gorgeous goals and positive attitudes? Or are you feeling pulled down or judged by the people around?

If you’re looking to up-level your business, your mindset,  your happiness, your wealth, ANYTHING, you need to surround yourself with people who get that and support and love you through the ups and downs. You deserve that! You need that.


When I started my dive deep into mindset work and began to actively seek out (and invest in) the mentors and community support I needed, my revenue 3X from one year to the next.

Yes, you read that right.

In 2015 I brought in just under $30,000 in my business (for the entire year), and the next year I had a $30K launch in February and crossed the 6-figure mark in October.

This is the type of exponential growth that is possible when your mindset and community are both there for you. This is the type of of success you can expect when you believe in your dreams.

And this is what I want to help you create for yourself + your business in the coming year.

I’m putting together a 6 Month Mastermind for women who are ready to drop the hustle mindset and reclaim their time, energy and power so they can sustainably scale to 6-figures while working flexible, part-time hours.

If you’re currently having $3,000 months in your business, and are ready for the support, tools and tribe necessary to breakthrough to your first 6-figure year, this experience is for you.

Inside this mastermind you’ll find…

  • 6 months of support (January to June 2019)

  • 2 live group calls per month

  • Expert trainings

  • 1 in-person retreat in Philadelphia, March 27th-30th, 2019

  • Up to (3) 30min 1x1 sessions with Cailen + 2 private sessions with visiting experts

  • Access to my network of influencers, industry leaders & high-level connections

  • Sisterhood of amazing women who are ready to make an impact

  • EARLY ENROLLMENT BONUS if you enroll by Nov 30th -- 1x1 session with Cailen to be used Fall 2018 [value $500]

The next step?

Simply book a time to chat with me here to ensure this is truly a good fit for you at this time.

If this is feeling right for you, I hope that we’ll be chatting soon <3

 

P.S. Joining a mastermind is a big step. I get it! I just joined one myself earlier this year. That’s why I’m making myself available to you to chat and answer your Qs so you can make sure this is a good fit. Book a quick call with me here :-)
