Why Universal Business Advice Fails And What Actually Works (Part 2)
Transform your unique challenges into your greatest business assets
Back when I was grinding away at my consulting business, Wednesdays felt like climbing a mountain with no peak in sight. These days? Wednesday often finds me in complete flow - writing, creating, and feeling deeply connected to the sacred work Carolina and I are blessed to do.
Today I'm sharing strategies that can help you work WITH your frequency patterns instead of against them - because you're closer to breakthrough than you might realize.
In Part 1, I shared three foundational truths about business transformation. Let me quickly remind you:
Truth #1: Your challenges are your wisdom speaking - frequency patterns seeking balance, not problems to fix.
Truth #2: You're not behind - you're building something sacred, exactly where you need to be.
Truth #3: Everything really is connected - and that's the good news because shifting one pattern shifts everything.
With these truths as our foundation, let me show you what transformation looks like in practice...
The Sacred Business Success Formula
After supporting hundreds of entrepreneurs, here's what we've discovered:
Sustainable Success = Pattern Recognition + Aligned Strategy + Implementation
When all three work together, what once felt impossible becomes inevitable. And you already have everything you need to begin.
The Truth About "Universal" Business Advice
Here's something most business coaches won't tell you: It's actually impossible to give prescriptive advice that serves everyone equally.
That's exactly why we developed the Harmony Map Assessment and why we do deep strategy and inner work with our clients. Your unique frequency patterns create your unique opportunities for growth.
But after years of this work, we've noticed certain patterns that many entrepreneurs experience. While these strategies won't be perfect for everyone, they address common invitations we see.
Think of these as experiments in honoring your own wisdom...
Common Pattern #1: The Power of Focused Devotion
Many brilliant entrepreneurs spread their gifts across multiple offers, platforms, and strategies. If this is you, you're not scattered - you're multi-passionate. The invitation is to channel that passion.
The Wisdom: Your desire to help everyone comes from genuine love. Now imagine what happens when you focus that love like a laser.
An Experiment to Try:
List everything you're currently offering or planning
Feel into which ONE lights up your whole body
Give yourself permission to focus there for 90 days
Watch how focus amplifies rather than limits your impact
Trust that saying no to good creates space for great
What We've Witnessed: Time and again, we see entrepreneurs double or even triple their impact when they finally give themselves permission to focus on the one offer that truly lights them up. It's not about doing less - it's about pouring all your creative energy into what matters most.
Daily Practice: "What's the ONE thing that would serve my highest vision today?"
Common Pattern #2: Building from Life Force Energy
If you've built a business model that depletes you, you're not doing it wrong - you've been following what you thought you "should" do. The invitation is to trust what energizes you.
The Wisdom: Your energy is sacred intelligence. What lights you up is meant to be your gift to the world.
An Experiment to Try:
Notice what business activities make you feel alive (8+ on a scale of 10)
Notice what drains you (below 5)
Trust that building around high-energy activities serves everyone better
Price based on the energy exchange, not industry standards
Practice saying no to protect your life force
What We've Witnessed: So many entrepreneurs discover that what they thought was "laziness" or "resistance" was actually their inner wisdom guiding them toward their zone of genius. When they rebuild around what energizes them, their clients get dramatically better results.
Daily Practice: "I trust my energy as sacred guidance."
Common Pattern #3: Sales as Sacred Service
If sales feels uncomfortable, you're not bad at business - you're sensitive to energy exchange. The invitation is to reframe sales as sacred service.
The Wisdom: Your resistance to "pushy sales" is actually integrity. Honor it while finding your authentic way.
An Experiment to Try:
Replace "sales calls" with "connection conversations"
Spend most of the time witnessing their world
Only offer if you genuinely see how you can serve
Trust that the right people will feel the resonance
Honor their no as much as their yes
What We've Witnessed: The entrepreneurs who struggle most with traditional sales tactics often become the most successful when they find their authentic approach. Deep listening and genuine service convert better than any script.
Daily Practice: "I trust the right people will recognize the value I offer."
Common Pattern #4: Working with Your Nature
We all have patterns that activate under stress. If you do, you're not broken - you're human. The invitation is to work with your patterns, not against them.
The Wisdom: Your patterns developed to protect you. Thank them while creating new pathways.
An Experiment to Try:
Notice your pattern with curiosity, not judgment
Create a simple 5-minute practice that shifts your state
Use it as a bridge to new choices
Celebrate every small shift (this rewires your brain)
Be patient with yourself - evolution takes time
What We've Witnessed: The most profound transformations happen when people stop fighting their patterns and start working with them. A simple 5-minute practice can break cycles that have lasted years.
Daily Practice: "I honor where I am while moving toward where I'm going."
Common Pattern #5: Celebrating Your Evolution
If you dismiss your progress, you're not ungrateful - you're focused on the gap. The invitation is to acknowledge how far you've already come.
The Wisdom: What you appreciate appreciates. Evidence of evolution creates more evolution.
An Experiment to Try:
Each evening, note 3 pieces of evidence of your growth
Include tiny wins (they matter more than you think)
Notice inner shifts, not just outer results
Feel the progress in your body
Let evidence guide your next steps
What We've Witnessed: Entrepreneurs often can't see their own progress until they start tracking it. When they do, they're amazed to discover they're already becoming who they want to be. This recognition accelerates everything.
Daily Practice: "I'm exactly where I need to be, learning exactly what I need to learn."
Your Sacred Path Forward
You don't need to be fixed. You need to be seen - starting with seeing yourself clearly.
These experiments aren't prescriptions. They're invitations to discover what works for YOUR unique frequency patterns. Trust yourself to know which one to try first.
Four Weeks to Evolution:
Week 1: Choose ONE experiment that resonates
Week 2: Practice with curiosity and compassion
Week 3: Notice what shifts (inside and out)
Week 4: Refine based on YOUR wisdom
The Deeper Truth
You already have everything you need to succeed. Sometimes we all need support to see it clearly.
That's why we created the Harmony Map Assessment - to help you reflect on whats holding you back from fully sharing your unique brilliance. And it's why our deeper work always starts with helping you connect to that highest version of yourself.
But you can begin today. Your patterns aren't problems. They're showing you exactly where your next breakthrough lives.
What experiment is calling to you?
Reply and share what resonated most. Not because you need fixing, but because declaring your intention creates momentum.
We read every response with appreciation for your courage to evolve.
With deep appreciation for who you're becoming,
