We all know the feeling of being unable to make changes in our lives because we are scared of what the outcome will be. That fear of change exists because we have given too much control to our ego and have fallen into the trappings of a fixed mindset.
Julia Woods joins me on The Rework today to share the inspirational story of how she rid herself of her limiting beliefs and replaced them with a growth mindset (which you will learn more about today). In doing so she transformed her photography business from a $350 sale average to a $5000 sale average and began to live her life the way she truly wanted to. We discuss the reasons that Julia undercharged for her services for so long, the life changing moment when she realized her worth, and the ways that she altered her business model accordingly.
A few years ago, Julia sold her incredibly successful photography business, and now works as a coach, helping others to reach their full potential and find their own version of success. Julia’s philosophy is based on a “believing is seeing” approach, which involves finding the courage to take small steps in the pursuit of your goals and remaining authentic in all your endeavours.
