Have you ever thought about prosperity beyond your earning capacity? Until I started coaching, I really didn't know much about abundance, flourishing, or prosperity at all. In fact, I went on quite the journey to understand it. I invested in books, courses and programs so that I would understand prosperity inside and out- because I wanted to be more prosperous than I had ever imagined. I wanted to be more abundant than my wildest dreams. I wanted to feel flourishing on the inside and out. I wanted my family to reap in the flow of all the things I learned. Scarcity was no longer an option- not in money and for sure not in relationships or love.
My prosperity dreams might look a little different than yours, and that's ok. We aren't meant to have the same dreams. But, we are meant to have the prosperity we desire, on all levels. Prosperity in our relationships, our love, our work, our health, our clothes and our home environment. And even more interesting, it's all interconnected. When the prosperity in our relationships elevate, so does the potential for the prosperity in our finances. Same for all areas of our lives.
Before my career in coaching, I worked in a job with a fixed income. My dreams of prosperity were limited to the standards of earning in the field I chose (mental health therapy). I had goals to be a leader in the company I worked for, because my dad was a leader in his field. With that promotion, it meant a little more cash flow and whole lot more prestige. Prosperity was connected to my title. Prosperity was connected to how hard I worked. And I worked hard. Prosperity didn't have anything to do with how the hours in my day went, how tired I was, or how much time I spent with my husband (which, because of our un-traditional work schedules and someone needing to be home with our boys, it wasn't much time at all.)
At the time, I didn't really think about prosperity in my friendships, or my partnership with my husband or even my relationship with my kids. Things were fine- but honestly we were just getting by when it came to feeling prosperous in our lives. We weren't really fully abundant because we didn't know what that meant for us. We had no idea what abundance even meant. We fell into our careers, and we fell into what was expected. We fell into the rules that someone we thought had more authority put in front of us. We didn't know we could make our own rules. We didn't know that what we were living for day in and day out didn't really suit us or our family. We didn't know that our prosperity could be so much more.
Fast forward a few years, and I feel confident in leaning into the rules of abundance. There's more than enough to go around. More than enough love, money, soul friends, clients, connection with my husband, kids and family, clothes, fun bed linens and healthy food. More than enough time, rest and health too. More than enough money. An overflow, really. There's plenty, always.
Now, I live my life from a flourishing place. And if something doesn't feel prosperous, I try to figure it out. This prosperity thing isn't a one and done sort of fixed model. It's a growth mindset model. Prosperity grows as you grow. Prosperity shifts as you shift.
If you are ready to shift how you do prosperity on a soul-blueprint level, I would love for you to join my new 21 day program, The Prosperity Blueprint. Inside the program we design your unique prosperity blueprint, we develop the 10 prosperity principals occurring in your currently and we get really clear on what's thwarting your prosperity. $97 reserves your spot, and I'd absolutely love for you to join me. We start April 26, 2021 and you can learn more about it here: The Prosperity Blueprint.
Until next time, be amazing and do fabulous things.
Love, Katherine
