Suz Chadwick is all about Playing Big and Branding Bold - she practices what she preaches and she's owning it!But what if you have fears around stepping up and playing big, branding bold?In this episode we explore the 5 mindset minefields that keep you playing small.****Play Big and Branding Bold is about making the decision every day to stand up, step up, show up and do the things that may be uncomfortable but they're the things that will take your business to a new level, help you build your personal and business brand and will mean you stand out. Branding bold is about LOVING what you're putting out there when it comes to your messaging, what you talk about and how everything looks and feels. One of the biggest things that hold us back is when we're embarrassed or unsure of what we're doing, saying, showing.When it comes to playing bigger in your business there are 5 mindset minefields that can keep you playing small in your business:1) What will they think?You have to start trusting yourself and stop worrying about what others will think. Everyone has their own experiences and agenda and you know what you want, so stop asking for permission and start focusing on the things that matter in your business. We're so used to asking for permission or asking and polling everyone that we end up with a lot of noise around us that doesn't help, it just confuses us into inaction.2) Will it work?The only way to work out if something is going to work is to do it. There are things that have work and things that haven't 'worked for me and I never would have learnt as much as I have if I didn't test and try and see what resonated with my audience.3) ComparisionitisIt's totally normal when you're starting out to look at everyone else but the issue with that is that you end up looking like other businesses which means you're not standing out from the crowd. Looking at what you're about, what you love, what makes you different and what resonates for you when it comes to message, branding, design and working is what will attract the right people to you!4) Impostor SyndromeIf at any point (and yes we go through this) you feel like you're not enough, you're not good enough, you don't know enough or you're not as good as so-and-so then this one is for you. Write down all the great things you've done, the great things your clients have said about you, the things that you know you totally rock at and what makes you different. Comparison and Impostor Syndrome go hand in hand. When we compare ourselves to others we feel like we're not enough, so it's important to understand how one feeds the other. You have to protect your head space and make sure you're only around people who are supporting you and who aren't tearing you down!5) Fear V's HabitsSometimes we get so stuck in what we're "used to" doing that we think doing something different will be really scary when in fact it might be an easy thing to try. Looking at what you're used to doing and what is an actual fear can make a huge difference when it comes to the new things that you try in your business. Sometimes we're just lazy - not scared! Having good self awareness can help you work out the difference.website: https://www.theconnectionexchange.com/instagram: https://www.instagram.com/suzchadwick/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Suzchadwick/
