After dealing with anxiety for years and having no idea what the root cause of it was, a friend introduced me to Lacy's work - and I'm SO grateful she did. I discovered I was insecure around high-level players in my industry through the Unblocked Inner Child and Unblocked Shadow workshops. I'm an actor and have worked with A-Listers where I became a complete shell of who I am with no voice or opinion of my own - afraid to make a peep. I had no idea this was due to insecurities because my ego refused to let me admit I was insecure about anything.
When I did the Unblocked Shadow exercise of repeatedly saying "I am insecure" to myself in front of the bathroom mirror, I broke down for 3 hours straight. Now I tell everyone how awkward I can become if thrown into situations I'm not comfortable with for whatever reason - AKA. I put it out there in the open, so it can't own me. In the process of going through these workshops, I also discovered I had a huge money block that had put a limit on my finances throughout my entire adult life. I had no idea.
Through childhood programming, I simply had a limiting belief of how much I was "allowed" to make, which was $60,000 in any given year. And year after year, like clockwork, I continued to make just that much and no more. It wasn't until I went through Lacy's Inner Child, Money & Uplevel workshops that my mind began expanding. So I made a goal to make at least $70,000 in 2020, and I did just that! (Amidst a pandemic.)
Finally, the biggest goal on my list - which was on my list for five years prior - was a house. My husband and I had been searching, but it wasn't until we sat down with our list, got extremely clear in our intentions - and I expanded - did we find our dream home of 5 bedrooms with a pool, view, in an incredible, safe neighborhood with kind neighbors. I am beyond grateful to have found Lacy's work. It. Is. Life-changing!
What tests did you face? Which did you pass? Not pass? Tests regarding money were listening to my gut to make out-of-the-box approaches with my coaching business, which I had never done before. I also raised my rates/ embracing my value, which was a huge one for me. People had been telling me for years to charge more, but it was not until I was expanded and embraced myself and my value that I truly stepped into higher income. For the home - once we got clear, it was pretty apparent what was right for us and what wasn't. There was one home that was a test as well as an expander.
It was at the top of our price range - but it did not have a room (that made sense) for my husband and his work. As beautiful as the home was, and it checked SO many boxes, we just weren't willing to negotiate on his workspace and had to pull out of escrow after the sellers refused to budge on repairs. However - in that process, it was also an expander as it made us very clear on what we did want, how much more we were willing to spend to get it, and we also now knew, without a doubt, we wanted a pool.
Did you experience a magic dark period? If so, tell us about it.: For income, yes. It wasn't until a paystub came in the mail in January 2021 that I verified I had made $70,000+ in the prior year. I knew intuitively I had, but the numbers just weren't adding up on paper - until the paystub reflected I had miscalculated. That was a really great day. ;)
For the house, Yes! It took three months for another house to get on the market for us to bid on. However, when the house we currently live in was accepting offers, someone outbid us - by a lot! We couldn't match it, and we had to let it go. But there was something about this house that was different than any other house we had ever walked through. We knew it was ours. For two weeks, after we were outbid, I kept feeling like it wasn't over. And sure enough, our real estate agent called to tell us the other bid fell through - and the house was ours! ;)
How did your manifestation come through?:
The money - Trusting, showing up, doing the work - both Lacy's work and putting in action to make it happen. Paying attention to my finances and measuring each month, month by month. I am treating my business with respect.
The house - My husband played a major role. It was exhausting after the first house didn't work out. Just emotionally draining. It wasn't until we were both fed up that we hadn't found a place yet that he checked the listings and found our home.
The anxiety/Insecurities - I think it's an on-going process, especially with Covid. But I've discovered the more honest I am and wear my heart and opinions on my sleeve, the less anxiety, and insecurities I feel. If I embrace myself, I've discovered other people tend to as well. It's when I get too quiet and play small; I need to check in with myself and ask why - and then go back through the work. ;)
