Planning to Go All In on Your Spiritual Business: Part One
Wednesday Jun 08, 2022
Wednesday Jun 08, 2022
I want to thank you for all of your kind words about the June Spirit Messages! It really means a lot to me because I showed up at a time when I typically would have retreated. My transparency is always met with love and I will continue to thank you for listening.
This week’s topic is something I get asked about a lot, especially in the Spirit School Collective, my monthly membership community. Many of you ask me how to create a “corporate escape plan” to leave your jobs! I will share some of the things that I did to prepare when I left my corporate career to pursue mediumship and teaching full-time.
In this episode:
- I had no intention of leaving, just a knowing that I would enjoy my days more doing this work
- I began immersing myself in content and podcasts about the corporate escape
- Not everyone has the privilege and access I had to make this transition the way I did it
- I had been building my audience for years and my husband also has a full-time income
- For offline, I recommend getting involved in your community and even booking a local space
- My business started with referrals from clients and one Saturday a month
- You can build an online audience off or on social media
- On social media, choose a platform you like such as Instagram, Facebook or TikTok
- Off social media would be your newsletter, podcast or YouTube channel etc.
- Vanity metrics like the number of followers doesn’t determine if you get booked
- I have treated my online presence as a development blog, sharing my experiences
- It is important to start this now, so you have people to sell to when you make the leap
- I had a small but engaged audience of about 1500 followers when I went full-time
- There are some unattainable figures for how much savings to have to leave your job
- The amount you need to feel safe is personal and is something to figure out
- There are a lot of resistances that come up when you start considering leaving
- The external resistances were the consistency and benefits of corporate
- Behind the layers, the root of the resistance was the fear of losing my house
- Calling out my fear out loud on my commute took the power away from it
- Doing it part-time brings clarity around what structure works for your goals
- Another tip is to apply for whatever credit you can get with your full-time employment
- Giving yourself specific timelines is exhausting and will make you feel like you’re failing
- You will know when it’s time, so be flexible and remember there is no rush
- On paper, it was not a good time when I left, but my podcast blew up and people were reaching out
- I hadn’t considered teaching online but I followed the lead of what my audience asked for
