Makena: Let’s dive right in. So, Gigi, do you want to tell us a little bit about what this masterclass is all about?

Gigi: Yeah. So we are going to focus on your deeper desires today in all areas so you can fully step into those and leap into your unstoppable self. And we’re also going to have a panel experience today, which will be really fun.

Makena: We’ll be talking to some great ladies, and they can share some of their experiences.

Gigi: Yeah, absolutely. We’re going to help you identify any patterns or blind spots that held you back so that you can have a breakthrough—whatever the breakthrough is that you want.

Whatever is sort of stopping you or slowing you down from getting there, we’re going to support you around that today and really see what that is and how to move through it.

Makena: Yeah. And then we’re going to give you some tools to unlock your magnetism. This is so you can be that magnet for people. You can have opportunities come to you, more financial abundance and success as you’re calling in your 2025. And that’s, you know, something we really want to look at today—what are those things that you want for next year and getting clarity on those?

Makena: Let’s get some of you, as we’re talking, to share one thing you’re calling in for next year—whatever that might be, a vision, a goal. We’ll go deeper here in a minute, but it’s fun to get some of those going.

Then you’re going to be inspired by powerful women, like Gigi said, on our panel who have risen through major challenges to become truly unstoppable.

Gigi: Yeah, and I just want to say about that, we’re bringing on some of our beautiful clients that we adore. They are rock stars. They’re going for it.

You’re also going to get the opportunity today to experience an Unstoppable Woman Activation where you step into that version of you that makes all your dreams come true.

Gigi: And I just want to say, if any of you have witnessed Makena’s—sometimes her meditations or these kinds of activations—she is brilliant. Many times women have these aha moments. They see visions. They see their next thing through these short meditations that she takes you through.

Makena: Yeah, I’m excited to lead that for you.

Makena: So, a little bit about the structure. We’re going to start with some teaching and content. This will be highly interactive, so again, get out that workbook and have that ready or a journal to take notes. Then we’ll have the panel discussion. Then we’ll close with the activation and a live Q&A.

So that’s the structure for today. We’re not going to spend a lot of time introducing ourselves because most of you have some idea of who we are, and we want to get right into the content that we have for you today. But Gigi, why don’t you give everyone a quick overview of who we are?

Gigi: Yeah. So we’re a mother-daughter coaching duo.

And with the combined experience, we have 45 years—a lot of experience. I’ve been coaching 38 years, and Makena has been coaching on and off her whole life. I think, Makena, you were 12 when you got certified. So she’s been in there with me through my whole career, basically, since she was born.

And she made this a full-time career in 2018. And we are on a mission to help women everywhere. I’ve been doing it for 38 years and not stopping. And this is what we do for women—to really become the woman you’re meant to be.

And I think this is so important—to tap into what you’re meant to share in the world and to really step into it.

We need women to be unstoppable these days. We need women to come together, to collaborate, and to really grow what we want to grow so we can do good in the world.

And then also, confidently create your biggest dreams. That’s something that we assist women with. And confidence is a key factor because we do find that, you know, sometimes that is what holds women back.

And then grow your income with ease and flow. And that is something too that is a little bit of a signature to the work with us. I have really assisted women over the years to do that. And also Makena enormously, in terms of really going after your dreams and all your financial goals and the things you want to do, but stepping back and really taking that from a place of feeling and ease and flow.

It doesn’t mean you don’t go for it, but you have a different place that you’re coming from. And then we love to create a life that’s rich in all areas because let’s face it, women want it all. Right?

Makena: Absolutely. And we’re the hosts of “The Way of the Muse” podcast. So if any of you haven’t checked that out, you can find that on all your favorite podcast platforms—YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, etc.

Makena: Let’s just read a couple of these responses. We have:

• “Calling in the life I dream of.”
• “Calling in more flow.”
• “Excelling in year one of graduate studies.”
• “A life partner and the start of a successful startup coaching/spiritual offering.”
• “Calling in becoming a mother.”

Gigi: Beautiful. I love that.

Makena: So, when you step into your unstoppable self, this first section is about getting clear on what you want.

Makena: What does it mean to be an unstoppable woman? To us, this means walking with your chin up and your shoulders back, knowing exactly what you want, and going for it unapologetically, and standing in your unique power, then radiating that energy out into the world.

And what you just said about confidence is so true. But it’s funny because a lot of the women we work with are very confident in some areas. Can anybody relate to feeling very confident in some areas but then in other areas, you might feel that self-doubt?

Gigi: Yeah. Like, “Oh, I’m really confident in this one area of my life, but then when it comes to this other thing I want to do, I’m like, Oh, I don’t know.” Right? That self-doubt comes up.

So being unstoppable is like, “I’m going to go for it anyway.” Right? And like Makena said, being truly magnetic for everything you desire in life.

Makena: And we’ve all seen these people, or maybe you’ve even been this at some point in your life.

Gigi: Yeah. I just think that we’ve all probably experienced those moments in life. And if you reflect back to them, what was going on? You know, what are those times where you felt…

Usually, we feel magnetic when we feel more like ourselves. And that’s, again, it gets down to really stepping into what you’re meant to do because it feels like you’re in alignment.

Makena: Yeah. So whether you think back on a time when you really felt magnetic or maybe you’ve seen someone, like a woman, that you’re like, “Wow, she’s just so in her power, she’s so magnetic,” and you can see these opportunities, these different things are coming to her—that’s what we’re talking about here.

How do you tap into that magnetism? Who wants more of that for 2025? Hopefully, that’s why you’re all here.

Makena: So what this means is going to be 100% unique to each one of you. No two people on this call or watching the replay will have the same answer to what being an unstoppable woman is for you.

So it’s important to get clear on what you want. Coming back around to this question: When you are an unstoppable woman, how will your life be different?

I’m going to read through the question here, and you can pull up your workbook or printout and just do a stream of consciousness. Jot some things down, some bullet points.

This could be: How will you feel different day to day? What will your experience of life be? How will that be different? And how will it be the same?

When you’re an unstoppable woman, how much money will you be making? What will change, and what will stay the same? We’re really defining here—what is this for you? Everybody is different.

And it’s so important to take this time and really reflect because, you know, often we just keep going, going, going. We just did a podcast on this, and we don’t take the time.

And then we get into our next year, and we’re like, “Wait, what? What was I going to do?” So really take this moment as much as possible and just throw everything that comes to your mind down on paper.

Gigi: Yeah, really dig deep. What are you longing for?

Makena: So the feeling, the money, the impact, the experience…

For this one, let’s get a few shares. Just share one or two things from what you’re writing down.

When you are your unstoppable self, when you step into being that truly unstoppable woman, how will your life be different?

Participant: Always present, rarely distracted, and more energized.

Participant: Energetic, sexy, fascinating, and interesting. Traveling more and more patient.

Makena: Nice. Let’s get a couple more, and then we’ll go into being a little more specific here.

Participant: I’ll be at ease, rested, and ready to act on purpose. Confident, more fun and easeful.

Makena: Yeah. Notice that a lot of you start with the feelings first. That’s interesting to notice, right?

Feeling unstoppable for you equals some of these other feelings you’re talking about here—working with ease and flow, great money flow, and a successful coaching business. Nice.

And that’s great to know because, again, that’s where you come from, right? That’s the space you come from. Now, the next thing we want to do is narrow this down by looking specifically at your year ahead.

When you spend the next year as your unstoppable self, what do you see having done or accomplished by the end of 2025?

And what I’d like for you to do is to narrow this down to three goals.

Because in a few minutes, I’m going to share with you how I made my first million, and it’s probably something very different for you. You know, maybe you want to be on the front of a certain magazine or sell a specific number of your products, or you want to speak in front of the business you’ve always been dreaming of or start that business you’ve been dreaming of.

Or increase the number of your clients, or have new products or services.

So what happens here is your goals need to be able to pass the yes/no litmus test. This means that if we ask you at the end of the year, “Hey, did you reach this particular goal?” you can definitely say yes or no.

So go ahead. If you can, share three unstoppable goals and make these more like yes/no—very specific.

Makena: So we’ve got here:

• “Traveling to see my clients and the sea, living with my love, Andrea.”
• “Making $400,000 next year.”
• “Being fit and strong.”

Those are great. Those are super clear.

And all of those we could ask you at the end of next year, right? Did you travel to the sea? Did you make the $400,000? And you could tell us yes or no. So those are great.

Makena: I see here:

• “I will be fully booked as a freelance art photographer and AI expert.”

So important to know—what is fully booked for you? And maybe you already know that, but that’s one way to be clear there. Is that a certain amount of money? Is that a certain number of clients? How will you know you’ve been fully booked at the end of next year?

• “I want to work together with Henrika on her business and support her.”
• “I want to have fully booked schedules.”

That might be a language thing in terms of what that means for you, but that’s great. Who else?

Makena: Bettina, go ahead.

Bettina: Let’s see. I’m pretty clear on my goals for next year because I want to stabilize my beach home living between Mallorca and Denmark—my heart places—and also raise my business to making $90,000 in revenue and also working with clients one-on-one here at the beach home. This is new.

And I want to—I’m starting now—make a keynote with my phone, which is a long-time dream, and also paid. Bringing my Feng Shui—I’m also a Feng Shui expert—and bringing this together and really increasing my visibility because, at the moment, the coaching is not visible. So I want to launch a website.

Makena: Nice. Awesome. Thank you for sharing.

Bettina: So it’s like, I call it flow coaching, and this is underneath. So it’s a new concept.

Makena: Nice.

Makena: Who else wants to share?

Makena: Monique, how about you? I’m going to call on people that I know. I’ll pick on you. Okay, here we go. Would you share yours with us?

Monique: Sure. Okay. So I have two sets. I’m still kind of playing with the third. The first would be a down payment on a family home. And the second is a family vacation to multiple cruise destinations that will be booked and paid for.

Makena: Love it. Yeah. Amazing. Love it. Do you know your income goal that will create those possibilities? What will make that happen?

Monique: I had a certain income goal. Yes. It’s very audacious, and I’m okay with it—$150,000.

Makena: $150,000. Beautiful. Amazing. Thank you.

Makena: Abrianna said she would share. You want to bring her up?

Abrianna: Hello. Hi. Great to see you. Probably my biggest one—I’m working on developing a software program right now, and I want the pilot program completely built out and then launch that to senior management here at the hospital. And if they love it, they will provide me with the team and financial resources to get this off the ground.

Makena: Love that. Do you have a personal goal you want to share?

Abrianna: I was thinking about that, but I guess it would have to be something that I’m in control of because getting married isn’t really all the way in my control.

Makena: It passes the yes/no test, so yes.

Abrianna: Okay, so it could still be a goal—a proposal.

Makena: Yes. Love it. Thank you.

Makena: All right, ladies. Awesome. Thank you.

Makena: In a while, I’m going to share my story on how I created my first million-dollar year, which was one of my first really big unstoppable goals early on in my career. But first, we’re going to do a little more teaching because it’s important to understand the context of it, right?

And again, the grid that I’m going to share is how I did things, so you can kind of reflect through that to see, when you’re looking at your goals, what you could do.

Makena: We’re going to start by looking at the biggest patterns and blind spots that we see that may be stopping you or slowing you down significantly from achieving your bigger dreams.

And for some of you, this is like, “I feel kind of stuck around this,” and for some of you, it’s like things are moving forward, but they’re just not moving forward as much as you would like, right?

So either way, the patterns and the blind spots are really, really good to see.

We have kind of a fill-in-the-blank in your workbooks to keep this fun and engaging for you, so take a look at those as we’re going.

Makena: The first pattern we see is being stuck in the weeds of your career or business.

This is when you are caught up in the day-to-day. And this might be in your life too—not just in your career—but you’re just like, “I’m busy, busy, busy,” you know, constantly going, going. You feel like you don’t have the time or space to really zoom out and see the bigger picture.

And this could be where you really want to go, or how to get there.

Sometimes that can be difficult to do on your own, which is why it’s great to come to something like this or to get support.

But being stuck in the weeds is really about being in the doing, in the day-to-day, and maybe, too, it’s that you don’t have systems in place to delegate. Maybe you don’t have support or team systems in your life, whether that’s personally or in your business, to really free you up and get you into your zone of genius.

Makena: And I’m going to share more about my story in a minute. I had a lot of these patterns for a long time. Gigi will tell you—it was painful.

Gigi: Well, we’ve all had them. I had them early in my development too.

Makena: Yeah. I was the person who just did everything myself. I was constantly busy, constantly overwhelmed, and overworked.

It took a long time, and through your support and guidance and starting to set up those systems and starting to get support, things shifted. I was able to go more and more into my zone of genius, where I love to be and also where I’m the most effective and get the most results.

We see that a lot of the time, and I think you’ll hear that in some of the women’s stories today as well.

Participant (Rebecca): I focus on the work, but I need to set up the systems.

Makena: Right on. Our first aha! Love it.

Participant (Bettina): I know what I want, but time is running every day, and everything gets slower than planned.

Participant: I take on a lot but don’t accomplish nearly as much as I want.

Makena: Yeah. So that’s number one.

Makena: Number two is the stress loop. You can fill that in on your worksheet—the stress loop.

These two are related, but they’re a little different. Some of you may have one of these and not the other. Some of you may relate to both.

The stress loop is where you’re reacting instead of proactively planning.

Sometimes this is because you’re under financial stress, or maybe there’s stress in your relationship, your household, or really any and all kinds of stress. It feels like you’re barely keeping your head above water.

It’s a little bit different than being stuck in the weeds, which is like you’re in the details. This is like, “I’m just trying to keep above everything.”

In that state, you’re not really able to zoom out and be proactive.

Makena: A lot of times, with this one, you feel busy all the time, but it feels like you never really get ahead.

You may want to grow, but you’re too tired to even think about what you want. Or maybe you know what you want, but you can’t imagine finding the time or energy to make it happen.

Again, with our panelists today, they’ll share. I think different ones of them had different versions of these patterns.

Gigi: Yeah. And also, these patterns are addictive. Once we get into them, they’re like a spiral. It’s hard to know how to get out of them.

Makena: Absolutely.

Makena: The third one is self-doubt, and we touched on this a little bit. We see this even with very successful women.

They’re super confident in some areas, but then when it comes to usually their bigger dreams, that’s when self-doubt creeps in.

Makena: Everybody, think for a moment about a bigger dream you have. Something that you would love to—well, you all wrote something down on your goals for next year—a bigger dream or a bigger goal.

And when you think about stretching yourself, does any form of self-doubt come in?

That could be things like, “What if it doesn’t work? What if I’m not good enough at this?” or “What makes what I have to share or what I want to contribute any different?”

This can even be the “What if I fail?” thought, right?

And you might notice this show up in different ways. It might come up as these thoughts, or it might come up as procrastination or different things where it’s like you don’t really want to go there because that self-doubt is there.

Gigi: Yeah, so the next one is the under-earning cycle, and that’s the undercharging. And I’m sure some of you can relate to that.

Makena: Yeah, this is focusing too much time and energy on low-income generating activities.

I just talked to a woman yesterday. She has herself spread so thin by doing so many different things. And when we really started to map it out, she saw how much she was making. If she broke it down by the hour, it was very low.

This gets you stuck in a cycle of being tired and undersourced.

What happens is you never feel like you can free up enough time or energy to make that leap into the dream you’re wanting to make.

Makena: We see this one often. I mean, we see all of these often, right?

Makena: Yeah. I will say about this one that under-earning could be undercharging if you’re in business for yourself. It could be…

I remember years ago a client came to me, and she was working three different side jobs. She was working, working, working, and barely making ends meet.

We looked at it strategically, and within a few months, she quadrupled her income. It was a shift in mindset and approaching things a little differently.

Makena: So, the top five patterns—these could be any number of things that keep you under-earning because when you’re under-earning, like Gigi said, you’re under-resourced. You don’t have the energy and the time to really move those dreams forward.

Makena: And then the last one is the someday syndrome.

This is the one where you say, “I’ll get to that when the kids are out of school, or work frees up in a couple of months, or six months, or when I’m clear about what I want to do.”

We see this a lot. I’ve experienced it throughout my career.

This one shows up too when I talk to women, or even men sometimes, and they have this syndrome. I’ll talk to them, and then I’ll speak with them two years later, and they’re still in the same place. They haven’t shifted this.

I think this one is so important, and it’s great to get support in this area because taking that risk and going for something with accountability is huge.

If that’s yours, it’s really about getting some kind of accountability to finally get out of that.

Makena: This is a tricky one because a lot of people have it, and most people will say they don’t.

If you catch yourself immediately saying, “Oh, that’s not me,” it may not be—but take a look and see.

Are there things you’ve been saying, “Oh yeah, I’m going to do that when this happens”? Just be honest with yourself.

No one here is going to know, but it’s important to address that.

Makena: What we always say is get clear on whether you’re going to go for it or not. If you’re not going to do it, then don’t beat yourself up about it. Just be okay with that and say, “Okay, now’s not the time,” or “I’m not committed,” or whatever the reason is.

But what we’re talking about here is for those of you who are in the someday syndrome but really do want to move that thing forward.

That’s when you want to check yourself and go, “Hmm, how long have I been saying that?”

Gigi: And you always say, Makena, the stars never perfectly align.

Makena: Yeah. Right.

Gigi: Yeah.

Makena: So which one of these five patterns shows up for you?

Which of these patterns do you relate to? What shows up for you?

Participant (Mindy): All of them.

Makena: Oh goodness, Mindy. If that’s true, see which one is the biggest one right now. That’s the one to go for first.

Makena: Mindy, would you be open to sharing?

Mindy: Yeah. I mean, I think they’re all super relatable.

I think I’m just so early on… The last one is super resonant. The someday syndrome.

For the last two years, I’ve been back and forth on going back to school for graduate studies, completely changing course.

I’ve been doing advertising sales, and that’s been my way of surviving and making money. But the idea of completely shifting to finding clients and going back to school… all of it feels pretty wild.

I just finally did it. So I’m like, “Okay, well, I did that.”

But as part of that, there are other things I’ve been interested in doing—starting a little coaching integration business.

I’ve thought about that for years and years. I’ve taken little steps, like buying the domain name, but I haven’t built out the website or really built any kind of funnel or literally anything around it.

Mindy: I would say under-earning… I get really uncomfortable.

When I was in ad sales, I didn’t care about asking for money. Not an issue at all. Negotiating was easy for me.

But when it comes to personal services, it’s like I can’t understand how much… It feels like a lot, and it makes me feel greedy.

The greedy part is interesting because I’m like, “This is a service, and I want to help.” But then I feel really greedy.

Mindy: Self-doubt… I think that’s more about earning potential. Like, “What if I make the wrong choice?” Even though I know there is no wrong choice, it’s going to lead wherever it’s going to lead, and that’s going to be right.

I understand that, but my body doesn’t fully align or connect—it hasn’t fully dropped in.

And then I would say the stress… same.

Yeah, I mean, all of it, you know?

Makena: Yeah, it’s great to see. And it sounds like the biggest ones were the first couple for you.

Mindy: Yeah. I think so too.

Gigi: You want to choose two. You can’t do everything at the same time. If you want to be unstoppable, you’ve got to choose something and really, really go for it and get it going.

Makena: Yeah. Thanks so much for sharing.

Makena: I want to share quickly a little bit of my story.

My biggest patterns were typically one through three: being stuck in the weeds, the stress loop (I was always busy, busy, busy, overwhelmed), and self-doubt, especially when it came to my bigger dreams.

I was very confident in some areas, but in other areas, I had a hard time.

I struggled with these the most when I was transitioning out of my previous career in marketing and stepping into coaching.

I knew deep down it was time for a change, but I was really scared to go for it and to go all in.

We talk about this a lot—this concept of going all in.

To me, being unstoppable is when you go all in and know you’re going to make it happen.

For me, it didn’t stop there. These patterns followed me into coaching.

I had them during the career change, and I thought, “Okay, I made the leap, I’m making money in coaching, it’ll all get handled.” But for a while, the patterns followed me.

I still had fear and self-doubt. I was constantly getting caught up in the day-to-day instead of zooming out to see where I wanted to go and what would really move the needle.

Makena: I did everything myself. I didn’t think anyone else could do it. And because of all this, I was busy, tired, and in reaction mode instead of strategically planning for the future.

Makena: Part of being an unstoppable woman is we have to—or we get to—plan for the future. We get to dream, we get to plan, we get to be proactive, take those steps, like Gigi said, create, and make sure you have some sort of accountability in your life if that’s something you know you need or you really work well with.

What saved my butt many times was Gigi stepping in and being that sounding board for me, really helping me see what I wanted and what systems we could put in place.

Incremental changes happened over time that led to huge shifts.

They led to me shifting into this career, replacing my income very quickly—in less than a year—growing significantly from there.

Panic attacks went away. I was having a lot of anxiety before I made that shift. I went from working 50–60 hours a week to usually 25–30 hours a week.

I really stepped into that ease and flow that we talked about.

Huge changes. And over time, I really learned these as skills.

Each pattern that you learn to overcome… It’s not that it’s never going to show up again, but when you learn it as a skill, when you really learn to move through those consistently and you set up the systems, it’s so much rarer that they show up.

And when they do, it doesn’t take me off the way it used to.

So, that’s a little bit of how that showed up for me.

Gigi: And also, Makena, when you fully stepped into what you wanted to do… That’s so much of it.

When you finally make the choice to go for your dream and confidently step into the woman you’re meant to be, it doesn’t mean your patterns won’t show up, but it does mean they won’t stay around as long.

If we’re not going for what we want, then we don’t have that power in us. But once you step into your mission or your dream, a certain kind of power, a certain kind of strength, is cultivated in you.

I think the women who will share on the panel—you will see that in them.

Gigi: I want to go into sharing a little bit about the story where I made my first huge quantum leap—when I really stepped into my unstoppable self for the first time. That’s when I made my first million in revenue in my business.

This was a time when I was raising my kids. I was traveling the world, leading workshops around the world.

And while I was doing this… I’m also going to share with you what not to do, because I think that’s really important—the biggest mistakes people make when it comes to really unlocking their magnetism and really going for their big dreams.

Makena: Yeah.

Gigi: So the first mistake is coming from your head versus truly what’s aligned for you.

Makena: Yeah, and everybody, you can go to the next page in your workbook if you’re not there right now. There’s a place for you to take notes underneath, and you can fill in the blank here so you can go back and review some of these later.

We’re moving pretty quickly today because we have a lot we want to cover, and also the panelists coming up.

Makena: So, Gigi, tell us a little bit more about coming from your head versus what’s truly aligned for you. We know what this means, but not everybody might.

Gigi: Yeah. I really saw what I wanted and what brought me alive—that’s our language, right? What brought me vitality? What could I get behind, and where was there energy?

Instead of just choosing something that was a good idea.

We often see this when people come to us for coaching. They have a good idea, but that idea doesn’t really resonate all the way through them.

In other words, if things don’t completely work out in the vision they have, they don’t stick with it and really go with it.

I stuck with this for 38 years in my career. That’s a huge commitment. Not many people do that these days.

In it, you’ve got to really know that you feel this so strongly and that it’s something that feels fully aligned and you feel energetic around it—not just a temporary energy, but something that really resonates.

For you, you have to see if you’re moved by money, by passion, or by mission. I’m very mission-driven.

For me, it was very aligned.

Gigi: So what I did instead is I got support to design my vision so it would fit with what lit me up and what would serve my clients.

I created the right offer and found the right marketing and sales strategy that aligned with my magnetism.

I want to talk a little bit about that.

At that time, I was teaching and coaching. I loved my work. I was leading a lot of workshops, but I felt there was something more for my clients.

I dug in to see what would really serve them. I put time and thought into that, like we’re talking about here.

Then I looked and saw: What is the way I want to do my outreach?

At that time, there was no social media. I found a way that I loved to be connected to people and share my work.

The offer that came out was a month-long training where people attended in person for 30 days.

The investment was $10,000, which was a lot back then.

Makena: And this was back in 1991—$10,000 to come for a month and do this training.

Gigi: Right. And I made it a game. That’s very important.

Whatever you do, you want to make it fun. I was so excited about this program and the outcome.

Everything I developed was always about what would serve the client.

I think this is why I continue my work. I’m always looking to see what is going to serve the client, what is the next level they need, and how can I create that?

I dream that up by doing what we’re talking about here—sitting back, reflecting, feeling into it, noticing where my clients are, and seeing what they want.

Then also, what would be really fun for me to deliver?

Gigi: I focused on my daily outreach. Back then, we used the phone.

I would lock myself in a bedroom for several hours a day. I called all my past clients. I was traveling a lot, so I had clients all over the world.

I would check in to see how they were doing, and I shared my new program.

I was so excited that I got other people excited.

I closed so many of the clients I already worked with because they were excited about coming into this with me.

Gigi: Again, the value add of spending 30 days going through marketing, sales, leadership… The experience was incredible.

A lot of them were business owners. They would take that back into their business, totally revamp their business, have systems for their employees. It was a very powerful experience.

I enrolled most of those clients, or I asked them, “Who do you know who would be interested in this?”

I asked for referrals, and several of my clients offered to put together events or workshops.

I would fly out and lead those workshops, which would get me in front of new people.

Then there was the opportunity to have new clients without using social media.

Makena: We’re talking about coming from your head versus what’s truly aligned for you.

Gigi is sharing her story here, and what’s important to note is that a lot of times, when people come to masterclasses, they think, “Maybe I should do all those things.”

That’s actually not the point of the story, and it’s not the point of what we’re sharing here.

There may be something that pings for you, and you go, “Oh, that would be great. I think that’s something that really aligns for me.” Or there may not.

It’s really about looking and seeing what worked for Gigi may or may not be what works for you.

It may or may not be the thing that’s really aligned for you and lights you up.

It’s super important to come from your alignment instead of from your head or what we call “good ideas.”

Makena: When we say “good ideas,” we say it in air quotes: good ideas.

That’s when someone says, “I’m going to do such and such,” and there are no lights on.

They look so serious and so stressed about it. We’ll say, “Okay, tell us more about that,” or “What else could you do?”

At some point, they hit on the thing, and it’s like, bing! Light bulb moment.

That’s what we’re looking for when we’re talking about alignment here.

Makena: Mistake number two is coming from stress and pressure instead of fun and intent.

This has been a big one, again, with some of the women—I see nods from some of our clients on the panel who used to do this.

Makena: Gigi, tell us a little bit about this. What does that mean, coming from stress and pressure versus fun and intent? And how did you approach this differently?

Gigi: What I did instead is I was super focused and full of intent.

For me, I connected this to a physical goal. That year, I knew if I didn’t do my run daily, I wouldn’t make my million.

I felt the intention of what it would take for me to step up.

I knew that if I didn’t shift something in myself physically—it wasn’t to lose weight or anything like that, but the act of committing to something physical and moving myself out—I wouldn’t make it.

When I would lie in bed in the morning, this got me up and going because I’d think, “Oh my gosh, if I don’t do this, I’m not going to make my goal.”

Gigi: I also put up a white piece of flip chart paper, which I still do to this day, in my office where it was visible.

I tracked every single dollar that came in, and I got my team engaged in this. We were all doing the same.

We looked at it every day—every dollar. If we got a refund from something, we put it on our board.

The game was $83,333 because that in 12 months makes a million dollars.

Every month, we were going for that $83,000. We needed to make that by the end of the month.

I would put any dollar that came in. Every time I did that, I felt excited.

Gigi: That visual stimulation was exciting. I knew this was my goal instead of it being somewhere in my paperwork and trying to find it.

I had fun with it. I stepped into the energy of, “If it’s going to happen, it’s going to be because of me.”

I really took that on. That’s why I say it was my first time tuning into that unstoppable energy.

There were no “I can’t do this,” or “I’m a victim,” or “I’m too busy.”

Gigi: The prize for winning the game? I set myself up to buy my dream car at that time and also to rent a condo overlooking the beach in Maui for a year, which I did—in Wailea.

Makena: In that dream car—the Supra.

Gigi: Yeah, the Supra.

Makena: So funny. That was the time when the Supras had just come out.

Gigi: The original Supras.

Makena: Well, no, no. There were Supras before.

Gigi: Oh.

Makena: They were these Toyota funky cars. Then they came out with the fast ones, and the tag on it was, I think, $75,000 back then.

I saw the car, drove the car—I love fast cars. It was a very exciting game for me.

Gigi: My kids would sit in the back. I had one of those early cell phones that connected to the car, and I would call clients while I was driving.

Then we’d zoom, and I’d say, “Watch out—Mama’s driving!”

Makena: I remember that so clearly.

Gigi: I played these kinds of games throughout the years, but you have to see what it is for you.

You might not be money-driven. You might be something completely different. You might be mission-driven.

But the thing is to connect with whatever that is, get clear on it, and—like we said—know those goals that are as clear as a yes or no.

Not, “My life is going to be better.” At the end of the year, we want to know how it’s going to be better.

Makena: This is a skill, right? Having fun with it.

Going for your dreams and goals—being in that high energy without stress and pressure. It takes practice. It is a skill.

You’ll hear about this with some of our panelists. Most people don’t know how to do this.

They either swing too far to the “go mode” side, which is go, go, go, stress, pressure, or they’re on the “flow mode” side, where it’s dreams and visions, but nothing ever really happens.

Maybe there’s not that full all-in commitment to really taking the right actions to move their dreams forward every day.

Makena: It is a skill, and it is a skill you can develop.

Makena: What’s the last mistake we want to share here, Gigi?

Gigi: The last one is staying stuck in the patterns, thinking they are just going to change.

The thing is, if we don’t change, nothing changes.

Makena talked about her patterns a little while ago, and I had many of these too. I really worked through my years of growing myself and changing myself.

I was running a business, I had three kids at home at that time, and it would have been easy for me to just stay stuck in my day-to-day. I had a super busy life and could have put off my bigger dreams and goals until everything lined up perfectly.

But the truth is, that would have never happened.

Gigi: What I did instead is I made a mother’s commitment. Failure was not an option. Even when I was scared, I took action anyway.

We will do this together in just a moment.

I also had support from a mentor through the ups and downs because their belief in me… There were days, and sometimes even weeks, where I questioned what I was doing.

Having someone there saying, “No, keep going for it. Stay focused,” was huge.

I really stepped into my unstoppable self, and we’re going to support you to do this during the live activation, which is coming up after the panel.

Like I said, when you get this opportunity with Makena, you will definitely activate something in you.

Makena: Yeah.

Makena: So the mother’s commitment—let’s go to the page on the mother’s commitment in your workbooks.

I think it’s page six, maybe?

It says, A Mother’s Commitment: Stepping Into the Unstoppable You.

A mother’s commitment means when you have a child—which I don’t yet, but Gigi has five—you know you have to commit, right? There’s no choice.

If we take that same kind of energy and apply it to your dreams—not just dreaming about it, but going for it…

Makena: Go ahead and fill in the blank here for you if you’re ready to do this. If you’re not, don’t just do this lightly. It’s important that you take it seriously.

It says:

“I, [Your Name], commit to owning who I am and stepping into my unstoppable self. Not just dreaming about it, but going for it. I’m all in.”

Then you would sign your name above. Just type it in if you’re on the computer.

If you’re feeling this out—and it’s totally fine if you’re not—I’ll give you just a second to do that.

Then we’re all going to say, “I’m all in,” at the same time, so we can hear the energy of the group.

Not yet. I’ll tell you when.

Makena: First, fill out your form and really feel the energy of this as you’re filling it out. This is a declaration you’re making to yourself.

It’s a moment in time. It’s a line in the sand.

It can be that powerful. I’ve had many turning point moments—and I know Gigi has too—where we’ve said no more to something, or we said, “I’m going to do this thing,” and fully, fully committed to it.

We made it happen.

That’s the energy of the unstoppable woman.

Makena: Everyone get ready to unmute yourselves.

Okay, everybody ready?

One… Two… Three… I’m all in!

Makena: Okay, let’s do it one more time. Ready?

One… Two… Three… I’m all in!

Makena: All right. Love it. Great.

Next, we are going into the panel. But remember, we do have the activation and the Q&A coming up after this, so you won’t want to miss those.

Stick around with us until the end.

We are super excited to have these panelists on with us today. These women have created incredible success, not just for themselves but for the people around them.

I’m going to introduce them now.

Makena: Starting with Anna Rieger. Anna is the founder of FlipLock and is married and a mom to six children.

She really stepped out from behind the scenes to become a TEDx speaker and a successful serial entrepreneur on a mission to save lives.

Anna, we’ll have you share your story in just a moment, but do you want to say hello?

Anna: Hello, everybody.

Makena: Thanks for being here.

Anna: Thank you for having me.

Gigi: Our next panelist is Lisa Antus. Lisa went from anxiety attacks and 60-hour work weeks to doubling her tax prep and bookkeeping business while working half the time.

She’s also married and a mom of three.

Lisa, we remember back in those days. It’s quite different now.

Lisa: I remember.

Gigi: Hi, Lisa. Great to have you here.

Makena: Next is Henrika Dorndecker. Henrika has been a coach for more than 20 years. I think she was probably back in some of those month-long trainings back in the day, right?

She’s a mom of three who went from struggling financially to creating a six-figure-plus business and called in a fabulous relationship.

I think she’s also got that person on the call with us today.

Do you want to say hello, Henrika?

Henrika: Hello, everybody. Love to be here.

Makena: Awesome.

We’re going to have each of these women share a little of their stories.

While we’re doing that, you have a place in your notes to take notes, but also at the top to write questions for the panelists.

You can write those in there, and then we’ll have time to take some quick questions from all of you on the call today.

Makena: Lisa, I think we’ll start with you.

We’ll keep all of you up here on the screen, and maybe we’ll pull Gigi and me off.

You can leave all three ladies up, though.

Makena: Lisa, do you want to tell us a little bit about a before and after?

Before you were an unstoppable woman and that moment in time—what was going on, and then what’s changed?

Lisa: Back then, I was having anxiety attacks almost every day.

With them happening back to back, it basically took me out because it would take me two to three days to recover. But when you’re having them consistently, you don’t really recover from them.

Me and my husband were on the verge of divorcing. There was no communication between us. I hid in my office just to avoid any contact with him.

Lisa: The relationship with my kids suffered because I was hiding just to avoid confrontation.

I ended up really sick at the end of tax season. I was sick for about five or six weeks because I would be up until one or two o’clock in the morning and then back at it at four or five in the morning.

It was constant. I was doing everything myself because it was my business, and I thought I had to do it all.

Makena: Yeah, the belief of, “It’s mine, and I have to do everything for it.”

Lisa: Exactly.

Makena: Were you where you wanted to be financially at that time?

Lisa: Nowhere near. I only had like 200 clients, and at that time, I thought, “You know what? I’m good. I don’t need to move forward with this. I’m just going to keep it where it is.”

I was definitely not working on my business.

Makena: Which sounds like a lot of clients to most of us, right? But you’re in a business where you’re doing volume, so it’s small numbers with a lot of clients.

That’s a snapshot of where you were. What changed when you really stepped into being an unstoppable woman? Where are you now in terms of anxiety, your relationship, your kids, and your income?

Lisa: I’ve not had an anxiety attack in almost three years.

Makena: Wow.

Lisa: If I feel one coming on, I stop and talk to myself. I say, “No, this is not happening.” I channel you and Gigi, and then I don’t have the attack.

I can keep moving.

Me and my husband are still married. We are still working on it, but we are so much happier than we were.

Communication with my kids is so much better. Overall, communication is on the next level.

Makena: And what happened in your business?

Lisa: I found that work-life balance. I was working about 80 hours a week. Now I work 30 hours a week.

During tax season, I made a commitment to myself to have a work-life balance, and it’s been working out.

I delegate now. I have a team of four. I went from just me to a team of four, and I love to delegate everything.

Makena: Love it. Did your business suffer financially when you stopped working so much, or what happened financially?

Lisa: It grew. I went from 200 clients to over 600.

Makena: Wow.

Lisa: On the bookkeeping side, I went from seven clients to 15 clients.

Makena: Incredible. Wow. Thank you for sharing.

We’ll come back around and ask some more questions and let our audience ask questions as well.

Let’s go to our next panelist.

Makena: Anna, why don’t you share a little bit about where you were before you really stepped into your unstoppable self?

Anna: We’re talking 10-plus years ago, maybe.

I was so busy. I was working on everything, but I felt like I wasn’t getting a lot done. Same type of situation as Lisa.

Nobody could do it like me, so I wasn’t delegating appropriately. I wasn’t clear on what I should have been doing.

I didn’t realize how much I was doing and how much I wasn’t focusing on myself.

I wasn’t taking care of myself. There was no self-care. It was just go, go, go.

Like you said, Makena, go or flow—I was go. I didn’t know what flow meant at all. There was no flow in my life. It was just go.

Makena: Yeah.

Was there anything else at that time in terms of what you were longing for or any challenges you were facing?

Anna: I didn’t know that I really wanted to be in front, but when you get interviewed or talk to magical coaches, they find the lights.

They help you see—not tell you, but help you see—what lights you up and brings you energy.

I realized I didn’t want to be behind the scenes anymore. I didn’t want to be the person doing all the details all the time.

I needed to do something that got me in front.

Anna: But to the point of what Gigi was talking about earlier, I didn’t have… I’m a very mission-driven person, so I needed a mission.

Once I found that, I was able to step out of my self-doubt and step into where I am today.

Makena: Share a little bit about where you are today. You found a mission…

Anna: Yes. My mission is school safety, and my bigger goal is to standardize a system for active threats across the United States.

When I was first starting, I had never even spoken publicly. My first presentation was to my mastermind group in Greece. I didn’t know what I was talking about.

I was stumbling, but it gave me the confidence and courage.

Also, with Gigi and Makena’s guidance, I had the confidence to continue and to get out of my head.

Anna: Gigi said, “Do you want to save lives? Then you need to get on that camera and talk.”

I had a hundred excuses to run the other way, but when I stepped into, “This is what I want to do, and I can make a difference,” I was empowered.

With the support of the group and my coaches, I continued to push forward.

My company has been in business for a couple of years, and we’re all over the United States.

I attribute a lot of that to the coaching I’ve received with Gigi and Makena and the support from the women in the group.

Anna: It doesn’t matter what level you are. This was a new business for me. I didn’t know what I needed to do.

All I knew was that I wanted to save lives.

They helped guide me—what I needed to do, what my next five years would look like. I never thought about what I wanted to do in one year.

Makena: You’ve really stepped into such a different energy.

Those of us who have known Anna over the years have watched you go from hesitant—

Gigi: I remember when you spoke at that retreat. You were not sure, and you felt a little shy.

Now, you’re on TV left and right, sharing your message.

Anna: I didn’t want to go. I was so nervous.

Makena: Awesome. Thank you for sharing.

Makena: Henrika, let’s have you share.

Tell us a little bit about where you were before you stepped into your unstoppable self.

Henrika: I think I was depressed. I was disappointed in myself and in life.

I was freshly separated and alone with my kids. I remember about three years ago, sitting there thinking, “I really don’t know what to change or how to change.”

I was coaching for many years, but I wasn’t really growing my business. I was stuck.

I was absolutely sad and disappointed. I knew from my past experiences—I’ve had many coaches before—that I wanted support with this.

So, I reached out.

Henrika: The first year was hard. I was confronted with all my patterns, my anxiety, my stress, my go, go, go mentality—all of these things.

But I was able, with Gigi and Makena’s support and the support of our group and our retreats…

The retreats were the best thing ever for me.

I was able to let go in a way, to relax deeply.

Henrika: In the first year, I tripled my income. The second year, I made the same amount of money, but with 80% less stress and pressure.

I made the same amount of money, but I was so much more relaxed, happy, and healthy, and I was present with my kids.

Now, I’m in my third year, and I’m on my way to doubling my income again.

So please hold all your fingers for me!

Makena: We’ll hold them up! Everybody give her some spirit fingers and send some good energy her way.

Henrika: Another really important thing happened. I met Andrea—she’s also here.

She’s my partner now. We’ve been together for months.

I dreamed about that for many years, but I felt I first needed to have my business together and feel happy for myself.

Then I could go and have a relationship again.

And then it happened.

Henrika: Also, with Gigi’s help especially, she gave me a framework that made me see, “Okay, I can do this.”

I’m a very game-oriented person. When I have a game, I go for it.

I’m also a money-oriented person, not just on a mission. I’m mission-driven, but also money-driven. That drives me.

Makena: I’m curious—does anybody relate to that?

Maybe you’ve been putting off something you want in a relationship, whether it’s calling in a relationship or improving your current one, because you’re so focused on other areas?

Or maybe you’re doing the opposite—you’re so focused on your personal life that you’ve put your career or business on hold.

Makena: Beautiful stories, ladies. Super inspiring. Anastasia said, “So inspiring, all.”

Makena: Let’s get some questions from our audience.

We’re talking about being unstoppable. These are women who have made huge changes and stepped into their unstoppable selves.

We can share all day long, but it’s different when you hear from others who have done it.

Think about what’s challenging you currently or what they might have some perspective on.

Makena: Lisa, what was the transition like from doing it all yourself to having a team to delegate to?

Lisa: Great question because that was hard for me. It was really hard.

I had been doing it myself for so many years. There was that feeling of, “If it’s going to get done right, I’m the only one who can do it.”

But working with Makena, I started by delegating one thing—just one thing that I didn’t want to do anymore.

When I took that mindset, I felt relieved. I was like, “I don’t have to do this anymore.”

Then I did another one, and another one. Now, I delegate everything.

I tell my team, “I don’t want to do this anymore. Who wants to do it?”

Makena: Love it.

Makena: Anna, do you want to share about that too? You were doing everything. You had several businesses, and you were behind the scenes doing all the work.

What was the big shift for you?

Anna: It was huge for me because it was hard to trust people to do it the way I would do it.

It was a little bit of self-importance, which we later labeled in my coaching.

I was self-important. It’s one of those things.

Once I realized, “Wow, I can get somebody to do this, this, and that,” I started delegating everything.

Anna: I couldn’t go on one of the retreats years ago—Hawaii—because I was so busy.

I told Gigi, “I can’t go. I’m too busy.”

The next one was in Thailand, and I really wanted to go.

I ended up delegating, and that trip was life-transforming because I realized I could go away, and nothing would fall apart.

People would step in and support me.

I just needed to be okay with people making mistakes. That’s the biggest thing with delegating—you have to be okay with that and get comfortable with it.

Anna: As long as you have open communication—and because of the communication skills I’ve learned working with Gigi and Makena—I’ve been able to catch things early before they turn into big issues.

We have a very open line of communication.

That communication has really helped me in training and delegating because that’s what it’s about—communicating with your team.

Makena: Henrika, we have a question for you.

What was a key strategy that helped you double—actually triple—your income in the first year?

What was something you did differently?

Henrika: Makena and I worked on my structure and my sales line.

For me, it was very much about having a plan.

When I know what to do, I do it.

We talked through, very specifically, how I could do that.

We ended up doing interviews with tech consultants—female tech consultants are my main clients.

I love cold calling, so I started inviting them to interviews to get to know them, their stress points, challenges, and desires.

That was the first step. Then, we followed up with certain steps.

Makena: It really created your client cultivation flow, right?

Henrika: Yes, exactly.

Makena: What really worked for you.

Henrika: Yes.

Henrika: Looking back over the last three years, it was the structure and knowing what to do, but also going for fun and pleasure.

Building your dream life is very holistic. It’s not only the structure, but it’s one step.

Makena: Awesome. Great.

Makena: Anna, we have a couple of questions here.

How long did it take for you to make the first step toward FlipLock from your first moment of realizing your goal and mission and deciding to go for it?

Days, weeks, months? Did you ever have someday syndrome?

Anna: Yeah, I think someday I thought, “Someday I’ll have a TEDx.”

We wrote this down in our group: “I’ll be a TEDx speaker someday.”

I think the moment I realized that what I was creating was going to save lives, I went into action right away.

Honestly, I did.

From the moment I presented in Greece to where I am today, it’s been right away. It hasn’t been slow.

I’ve had the support of everybody, but Gigi and Makena have been very instrumental.

Makena: Yeah, you really did. When you felt that alignment, you stepped into it, and you went for it.

Anna: Yes.

Makena: Because you had a lot of fear. Like she talked about, Anna was not an in-front person.

She had to go through so much courage to do what she’s done up until this point, which is amazing.

Makena: Another question for you, Anna.

As a mother of six—six!—what’s one key thing you’ve learned to implement to help achieve time balance to commit to your children?

Maybe Lisa and Henrika, if you have something to add to that as well.

Anna: For me, it’s about finding balance by stepping more into flow instead of constantly being in go mode.

That means making family time, vacation time, or just time with my children and my husband a priority.

I’m not working 80 hours a week anymore. Like Lisa, I was doing that before.

Now, I have teams, I have support, and I work 30 to 35 hours a week.

I’ve been able to grow my business just as fast as if I were working 80 hours on my own without support.

Anna: For my kids, balance is about delegating and having support.

I also make sure to spend quality time with my husband and kids.

Our kids are going to grow up really fast.

We did an exercise once where I realized, “You have five summers left with your youngest.”

That realization really motivated me to make more time for my daughter.

Makena: Beautiful.

Makena: Henrika or Lisa, anything to add about achieving time balance with your children?

Henrika: Yes. Planning. Taking the calendar, sitting down, and talking with my kids.

I have two adult children and one little one.

We talk about what we’re going to do together that weekend, and we plan it in.

It’s about having a plan.

Makena: Yeah.

Lisa: I actually shut down my business in the middle of the day.

I take my last appointment at 2:30 in the afternoon, and I don’t take my next one until 6:30 in the evening.

That way, my kids come home from school, and we have dinner together as a family.

We all sit down, catch up, and then I go back to work in the evening if needed.

Lisa: With vacations, you just plan.

When you have a team around you, it helps.

Gigi and Makena taught me that I could work less and still make more money while having a happy life and a thriving business.

I really had to learn that.

Makena: Great.

Makena: Thank you, ladies.

Let’s thank them for coming on today and sharing.

They’ll stick around for the activation and the Q&A, so if you have more questions for them or for us, stay tuned.

Makena: All right, we’re going to go into our activation now.

Everyone, get comfortable.

We’re going to do a short guided process of really activating you, stepping into your unstoppable self.

This can be a turning point moment for you.

Then we’ll go into some other shares and Q&A.

Makena: Get comfortable. We’re going to turn on a little music in the background.

Take a couple of really deep breaths.

Get centered in your own self.

Makena: Imagine there’s a pillar through the center of your body—a pillar of energy, of light.

Connecting into that pillar.

It goes all the way through your body, into the ground, and roots deep down into the earth.

It also shoots up through your body, all the way to the heavens.

Makena: Notice a warm glow around your heart.

Maybe the glow has a color. Maybe it sparkles.

Notice this feeling.

It might even help you to put your hand on your heart and tune into your heart space energy.

Makena: The pillar represents your alignment.

It represents your connection to whatever you believe in—God, the universe, your higher self.

Your heart is your essence, your energy, your aliveness.

These two things intermingle inside of you, and they have infinite potential.

Makena: Bring to your mind or heart some of your big goals and dreams.

Maybe some of the ones you wrote down for next year.

Notice how they make you feel.

Do you feel excited? Do you feel butterflies? Maybe a little nervous or scared?

Makena: If you feel nervous or scared, don’t try to make those feelings go away.

Just notice them.

The truth is, and I think every one of the women on the panel would tell you, they still have days where they feel nervous or scared.

It’s about making peace with those feelings.

Makena: I’m imagining them as butterflies.

Imagine your worries and fears as butterflies flying around.

We’re going to love them, see them, and honor them.

But there’s something even stronger and more powerful than those butterflies—your inner alignment and your aliveness.

Your energy that is true to you.

Makena: Notice that you can experience both of these things at the same time.

You can feel the butterflies, and you can feel your inner core, your alignment, your heart.

Expand that feeling of your heart energy and your alignment energy.

Expand it out. Notice it getting bigger and brighter and stronger.

It envelops the butterflies.

The butterflies are still there, but they’re encompassed within your beautiful alignment and heart energy.

Makena: Keep expanding your energy out and out.

It’s effortless. You don’t have to push it, force it, or stress about it.

It’s totally natural for this energy to grow bigger and brighter.

It’s just waiting for you to give it permission.

Makena: As it continues to expand, imagine that your dreams are floating out there somewhere in the universe.

They already exist.

The partner you’re calling in, that baby, the amount of money you want to make next year, the dream home…

Whatever it is, it’s already existing in some form in the universe.

Makena: Your energy is expanding out and connecting to everything you want to call in.

It’s magnetic.

Continue to feel that feeling of your unstoppable, magnetic self.

Standing in your power effortlessly, with action, with intent, but also with ease.

Makena: Connecting to everything that you want.

Take a few more moments to feel what this feels like.

Maybe you give it a word.

How do you feel in this moment?

Describe the feeling from the inside.

Makena: Know that you can tap into this anytime, every single day, again and again.

Take another deep breath.

Start to bring your awareness back into your body.

You don’t need to shrink your energy. You can keep it out there, connecting and attracting everything you want.

Makena: Begin to bring your awareness back.

Feeling yourself staying open, curious, and ready for magic and miracles.

Take a deep breath. Wiggle your fingers and toes.

Then come on back into the room.

Makena: Everyone, share—what was your word?

What was your word from inside?

What did you see? What did you experience?

Participant: Steady.

Participant: Clarity.

Participant: Powerful.

Participant: Proud.

Participant: Lightness.

Participant: Abundance.

Participant: Excitement.

Participant: Warmth.

Participant: Fecund.

Makena: Fecund. I don’t know that word.

Participant: It means grow more.

Makena: Love it. Love it.

Makena: Notice—no word repeated twice.

Your unstoppable self is completely unique to you.

Makena: That’s what we want to tap into here.

This is your first moment of this, or maybe you’re getting back in touch with her.

You get to carry this out with you.

Makena: Go ahead and write down—there’s a place for that in the workbook.

Anything you saw during the activation.

Anything you felt.

Makena: Do you guys know I never plan these visualizations? I just do them in the moment.

Gigi: They’re special.

Makena: I’m always like, “I wonder what’s going to happen.”

Something happens.

Gigi: Yeah, it usually works out.

Makena: Take a couple more minutes and jot down any bullet points, anything you want to remember since you’re in that energy right now.

Makena: Moving forward…

If you feel like this masterclass and panel have been valuable to you, and you’ve learned something that will help you move forward in your life and business to be that unstoppable woman…

We’d love to hear from you.

We’ve still got a little more to go, but just to take a finger on the pulse of how you’re all doing.

Participant: Amazing.

Participant: Awesome.

Participant: Great.

Makena: Curious, do we have your permission to make an invitation to come in and work with us and become truly that unstoppable woman in 2025?

Participants: Yes!

Makena: Wonderful.

Makena: We’d love to invite you.

The program we want to share with you today is the one that all three of our panelists are in—The Wealthy World Changers Mastermind.

Makena: Gigi, do you want to share your story first?

Gigi: Yeah, yeah.

I want to share that I invested in hiring a coach and joining a mastermind myself.

I’ve never done that before.

I saw that what got me where I am right now would not get me to my next quantum leap, which I was really interested in.

I wanted to take things to my next leap.

Gigi: I have a few more years of working, and I looked at where I would be a year from now if I continued on my current path.

This is when I made the decision.

I was very clear—if I stayed on my current path and kept going the way I was going, I would not make my goal.

Gigi: To be honest, nobody came out and tried to sell me on this.

I looked at myself and thought, “I’m going to reach out to this person and invest.”

Honestly, it was a really big investment.

Gigi: When I looked at where I would be a year from now with this kind of support, I knew I would make a quantum leap.

I know that when clients work with us, we accelerate the time it takes to achieve something.

I knew that, and I needed outside help too.

Gigi: The fascinating thing is, within three months, I 8Xed my investment with this person.

Makena: Oh my gosh. We haven’t even talked about this, but that’s amazing.

Gigi: Of course, that’s where I am in my business and everything, but I invite you to think about this.

Gigi: I asked myself, “If you don’t do this, where will you be a year from now?”

“And if you do get support, where will you be?”

Gigi: I saw clearly that if I kept going without the support, I wouldn’t make that pivotal quantum leap.

Makena: Yeah.

I’ll bring up a little bit about the program. We have many different programs we offer, but this is the one we have a special offer around today, so we wanted to share it with you.

Makena: This program is about three main areas. We focus very much on business or career. You don’t have to be an entrepreneur. Many of our clients are, but many are also doing purpose projects, passion projects, or growing in their careers.

We also really look at relationships. Some of the women touched on this today. We couldn’t go super deep into it in the panel, but all of them could share a lot about the changes in their partnerships and family dynamics.

We work in a holistic way.

Makena: And then the third area is yourself—your confidence, your clarity, your ability to create what you want.

Lisa talked about anxiety attacks going away. For others, it’s different, but it’s about moving through whatever holds you back.

At the intersection of all of these areas is your world changer legacy.

Makena: When all of these are thriving and working in harmony, your energy overflows to create your world changer legacy.

This is the impact you make on your community, your loved ones, and the world.

Makena: It’s about your dreams coming true faster than you ever thought possible.

We say this all the time: it’s not that you can’t do it or you’re not on the path to doing it, but so much of the time, it feels like the slow path.

Makena: When you join the mastermind, you step into a new experience of time.

In one way, life slows down because you go from rushing around, feeling stressed and pressured with all your different responsibilities…

…to experiencing more ease, flow, and spaciousness.

Makena: As you clear out energy leaks and connect to your deeper desires, an unwinding process happens.

Your heart rate slows, your breathing deepens, and you feel more energized and inspired.

You have more time for the things that are important to you.

Makena: On the other hand, your results speed up.

It’s like you collapse time, and all the dreams and outcomes you desire happen faster than you ever thought possible and with more fun than you ever imagined.

Makena: I also want to share the key areas of breakthroughs that women have when they first come into the program.

You heard better than we could say from the panelists today, but I want to summarize it a bit.

Makena: It often starts with clarity on what you want—really understanding your vision and creating a plan.

Henrika talked about this—step by step, strategically moving those dreams forward.

Makena: That’s what we’re talking about with the roadmap.

So you’re not waiting or taking baby steps but are strategically moving forward.

Makena: People often say, “I’m busy. I don’t know how I’m going to fit this into my life.”

But they find that they become less busy with more results as they go through this.

We clear out the things creating busyness or create systems to allow you to do this.

Makena: We also support you to break through fears, doubts, or other roadblocks that come up along the way.

Makena: Then, confidence. It’s about owning who you are and your gifts.

Really stepping into the unstoppable woman who knows anything she sets her mind to, she will create.

Makena: Energy—ease and flow.

Getting out of go-go-go mode if that’s your pattern or blending go-mode with flow-mode.

A lot of people are astonished at how relaxed they feel while still kicking butt in business or whatever area they’re focused on.

Makena: Connection—relationships, romantic relationships, family dynamics, leadership, and business relationships.

Bringing out the best in people, reducing conflict, and experiencing more richness and depth with all the people in your life.

Makena: And then finally, support.

Many of our participants come in feeling like they have very little time for themselves or their loved ones.

But over time, they set up systems of support, their energy increases, and they get a lot of support from us and the group.

We have an amazing mastermind community.

Makena: This is really where the women on the panel today had huge, huge jumps in a short time.

If you don’t see how to make it work financially or aren’t sure this program is the right fit, book a call anyway.

We have other options, and there’s zero pressure. It’s not a pushy sales call.

Makena: I wanted to hear from our panelists quickly.

Did you have any fears or doubts about making the investment in yourself when you first started?

Henrika: I was terrified about investing the money in myself and the program because I didn’t have it.

I didn’t have thousands of dollars to give away.

Henrika: But I was very sure that I wanted to do this.

I was sure of my path, so I got a loan for it.

Makena: You treated it like a business investment.

Henrika: Yes, a business investment.

Makena: Amazing. And you tripled your income, so I guess it worked out.

Henrika: Yes.

Makena: Lisa, how about you?

Lisa: I was on the fence almost the whole call, but in the end, I knew I was drowning, and I didn’t know how to get out.

I decided to take the leap and go for it.

Lisa: I didn’t have the money either, but I thought, “I’m going to make this work.”

I went to my husband, and we weren’t on great terms, but I told him I needed to do this.

Makena: Did you put it on a payment plan?

Lisa: Yes, we did a payment plan, and it was history from there.

Makena: Amazing.

Makena: Anna, did you want to share?

Anna: Sure.

When I first started, I didn’t really know, but I saw the value.

As I grew and learned, I went into the highest plan because I saw how valuable it was.

Anna: Since I’ve been working with Gigi and Makena, I’ve at least doubled my net worth overall.

That’s a fact, for sure, from working with you guys.

Makena: Thank you, ladies.

Makena: Book your call if you’re curious. There’s no obligation and no pressure.

Makena: Anything else you want to say, Gigi, before we go into Q&A?

Gigi: Thank you for being here.

If you have questions, ask them now. We’d love to share with you.

We appreciate you.

Makena: Absolutely.

Makena: Absolutely.

Let’s take some questions.

This can be on anything we’ve covered today, anything that as you go out of here, you want to be super clear on to really step into your unstoppable self.

What would you love to ask? It could be a question for us or the panelists.

Makena: Valentina, I see you closing your eyes and going deep there.

Is anything coming to you yet?

Valentina: I was just thinking.

Yeah, I was going deep, trying to find a question for me.

I think what came up was that there’s a lot of information that I now want to process, sit with, and go a little deeper.

I really feel like this masterclass was really helpful.

Thank you so much.

Makena: You’re so welcome.

Was there one thing you’re really taking away right now that was an aha moment?

Valentina: Definitely.

For me, it was that alignment with one’s mission is a very powerful drive.

Sometimes I feel like that’s true for me, and I heard that from this call.

It just aligned.

I just need to align with my mission and really focus.

Makena: Yeah.

You’re someone that I know is super determined when you set your mind to something.

It would be great for you to find what that is and really go for it.

Valentina: Definitely.

Yeah, I’m really carrying that out. Thank you.

Makena: Thank you.

Makena: Who else? Questions?

Makena: What are you taking away from today?

Makena: Rebecca, would you share an aha moment?

Rebecca: Of course. Thank you.

I have pages and pages of notes, so thank you.

Really, it’s the power of truth-telling.

Thank you, Makena and Gigi, for getting us there.

Rebecca: Hearing Anna’s story about her family and her husband—she didn’t have to share that, but she did.

Talking about how many hours they used to work, that really stood out.

How hard it was, but also how helpful we can be for each other when we tell the truth.

Truth-telling is super cool.

Makena: Yeah.

Rebecca: And in a kind way. Sometimes people tell the truth, and they’re not kind about it, but you all did that in a very kind way.

Makena: Thanks for sharing.

Makena: Rania, would you share an aha or takeaway?

Rania: I feel connected.

This is beautiful.

I feel very peaceful.

My day was crazy, with so many Zoom calls and time differences not aligning.

But having this call, even though it was only an hour, made me feel connected again.

Makena: Rania was with us in Sonoma at our retreat.

It’s great to see you again.

Rania: Thank you.

Makena: Thank you.

Makena: Who else?

Makena: Any other questions or takeaways?

Makena: If not, we’ll start to wrap up.

Makena: Anyone else?

Makena: Alright.

Makena: I think we can wrap up here.

Makena: My aha moment—again from Henrika—was just how grateful I am for my life and for all the support.

Makena: Brielle said, “Perfect timing for this call. I reconnected with a heart creation.”

Makena: Beautiful, ladies.

Everyone, unmute yourselves and say bye out loud!

Everyone: Bye!

Makena: Have a great rest of your day!

Makena: Thank you! Lots of love!

Everyone: Bye!

Makena: Talk to you soon!

Everyone: Bye!

Gigi: Makena, it’s that wonderful time of the year.

Makena: You guys, it’s not even Thanksgiving. I know some of you are out there going like, “These people who start decorating for Christmas early are crazy.”

Gigi: Whatever holiday you celebrate, right?

Makena: Whatever holiday you celebrate, but I happen to be a big fan of Christmas decorations, and I have been going for a while now. Let’s just say after Halloween, it’s fair game, and my house is a Christmas wonderland. It’s so fun.

Gigi: Nice, I can’t wait to see it. You have to send a video because I don’t think I’ll see it. So I’ll see you in California, not in your California.

Makena: Yeah, a different part of California for Christmas. What about you? Have you been traveling a lot?

Gigi: Yes, I have. I just came back from Tulum, which was beautiful, so beautiful. I had a really nice time there and did a sweat lodge that was amazing. 

I went to a retreat that I attended, which is rare. I haven’t done that in several years, so that was super fun. It’s actually a mastermind that I’m in, so yes.

Makena: Love it. I feel like you’re jet-setting around right now, on a plane every other week.

Gigi: I am. Like my son said, “I’m not going to travel much anymore.” He’s like, “Sure, sure.” And here I am, traveling every week. 

I’m going to Utah for the first time. I’ve never been there, so I’m super excited about that. I’ve always wanted to go there.

Makena: Fun. And you’ve been to galas. I’ve seen all kinds of fun things going on in your world.

Gigi: Yes, I was at two galas and took pictures. Friends are flying in, so it’s a nice time. 

This is such a busy time of year for all of us, I think, for business and also just socially. That’s what this time of year is about, so it’s fun. And then we all get to come together up in Berkeley for Christmas. Super exciting.

Makena: Yeah, I can’t wait.

Gigi: Everybody’s going to be together this year, which is awesome.

Makena: And we’ve been preparing. We talked on the podcast about The Unstoppable Woman Masterclass we have coming up next week, and we’re so excited for that. 

If you haven’t checked that out yet, go to wayofthemuse.com/unstoppable. 

This is the perfect way to, at this time of year, take stock of what you want to create before the end of the year. We still have time. And then also really see what you want for next year.

Gigi: Yes.

Makena: How do you become that unstoppable woman who’s going to create it? So we’d love to see you there.

Gigi: Yeah, and I think it’s so important this time of year to do that. We have this time for reflection, which we definitely do in December with our mastermind and for ourselves, because then you can really plan, right? You set that tone for the next year. 

If “unstoppable” is your thing, then we’re the ladies to listen to.

Makena: Yeah, we’ll actually have three women on – amazing, incredible and very much unstoppable women in their own ways – doing some shares and a Q&A. So that’ll be super fun as well. 

Alright, let’s get into our topic for today: Making A Quantum Leap. 

So first, let’s talk about what a quantum leap is and why we’re even bringing this up on the podcast.

A lot of times, when we talk to women who want to grow in their lives, businesses, or careers, they’re in this place of wanting to make a jump from where they are now. 

Maybe they’re feeling a bit of a plateau or a little stuck, OR things are good, and they’re growing, but they feel there’s a bigger game, a bigger dream.

So, that’s what we want to talk about today. How do you make that leap? 

And that leap might be a continuation of where you are – it might be growing your business revenue or getting a specific result. Or it might be a leap into something new, like calling in a great relationship. 

But whatever it is, it feels like a stretch from where you are now. That’s the main thing. 

So, how do you do that? And how do you do it in a sustainable way where you don’t just fade out? 

Tell me about that, Gigi, because you mentioned not being a one-hit wonder and doing this sustainably. 

What do you mean by that, and why is it important?

Gigi: Yeah, I see sometimes there are musicians or people who go out there as one-hit wonders, right? They have this amazing song that comes out, and it’s incredible. But there’s no plan after that, or they take a lot of time off and don’t focus on taking all that fame and doing something with it. What happens then is they lose their momentum. 

And I think that’s part of it – not losing the momentum.

A sustainable way is similar to going to the gym for two months. You’re really working, you’re looking good, but then you stop for five months and have to start all over again. 

We see this often. 

A lot of this is because people either don’t know how to keep going or think they don’t have time. They don’t know where to fit it in or exactly what to do.

And I think that’s why women, and also men in my leadership coaching, come to us. 

They need a place to think it through and reflect. 

You’ve seen this too, right, Makena? You’ve worked with a lot of women who’ve really made that quantum leap, often in their businesses or income.

Makena: Yeah, absolutely. I think a great place to start this conversation is by talking about alignment. Something we see a lot is people wanting to make a quantum leap, but maybe they haven’t really looked to see if the way they’re looking to grow is truly aligned for them.

What do you see with this, Gigi, when people come to you? 

Let’s use an example – it’s probably the most common one we come across with our clients. Say, “I’m a business owner, and I want to grow my income significantly in the next year. We’re approaching 2025 – this is the breakout year.” 

Or maybe they’re already doing really well, but they have a big vision and a big goal.

How would someone tune in to see if this is aligned? What do they need to do to figure out if this is really the right direction for them? What do you mean by that?

Gigi: Well, I mean, does it bring you alive? That’s our language. Is it something you really feel you want to put your time into? 

We can have a lot of good ideas, and I think that’s where clarity comes in. 

Good ideas are great, but what we see is that if people just go with their good ideas, and it’s not aligned with how they want to spend their time or how they see themselves in their business, then it loses steam. Or they dive fully into a project, and it just becomes a strain, a stress, and isn’t really successful. 

So, I think that’s part of alignment. It’s so much about seeing how you want to grow. 

What’s the right thing for you? How do you want to spend your time? 

And then, does whatever project or way you’re growing your business make the best use of you? Is it the right place for you?

And does it really bring out the best in you? The best part of what you do is really, really well. 

We always talk about it as your “sweet spot.”

Makena: Yeah, I said that to someone the other day. I mentioned my “zone of genius,” and they were like, “I love that!” It’s common language for some people, but others may have never heard it or really thought about it – like, “Am I in my zone of genius? Am I in my sweet spot? And is this goal, this vision, this quantum leap going to put me more in my sweet spot or move me away from it?”

And this piece you mentioned about good ideas – I think a lot of people probably hear that term and think, “Well, why wouldn’t I do a good idea?” 

So, what do you mean by that? We talk about this differently when we’re working with our clients. What are you describing as a “good idea” versus something that’s truly aligned for someone?

Gigi: Especially if you’re creative like me, I can have a hundred good ideas in one day. I see something and think, “Oh my gosh, that would make a great business,” or “This would be a fantastic product,” or “I’d love to do this.”

So, what happens is I can have all these ideas, but they’re just ideas. And again, I think it’s about stepping back and asking, “Do I really want to do that? Do I want to spend my time there? Is that also going to earn the kind of money I want for the time I’m going to put in?” 

I think that’s a big factor.

And with creative people, they often don’t think like that – they think about the creativity, right? 

So that’s one of the ways to assess it. What other ways have you seen, Makena?

Makena: The other thing I see is what we call a “good idea” – I’m putting air quotes here for those listening. We’re really talking about something that, again, doesn’t light you up.

So, when we’re coaching someone and they say, “This is the thing I want to do,” and we don’t see any lights, we explore that. Sometimes, we just need to dig deeper, take a different angle, and then we really come to the part that has a lot of light. 

But a lot of times, people have these things they tell themselves. They have thoughts like, “I’m going to do this,” or “I should grow in this way.” But when it comes down to it, it’s not actually what has energy.

That’s so much of what you were saying about aliveness – the good idea could be like you’re saying. You’re a visionary, with tons of different ideas, but maybe they’re not all actually the right idea. 

Or it can also be things you tell yourself, but it’s not until people are sitting in front of a coach trained to reflect this back that they go, “Wait a second, maybe that’s not actually where I have energy or what’s really aligned for me.” And this saves so much time.

I know for me, this was the piece that saved time, money, and energy. For so long, I struggled to see how to grow in my previous career or what I wanted to do. I was looking at the logical, linear progression, but I couldn’t see outside the box, outside of the “good ideas,” so to speak, to what I really, really wanted. And that was the huge distinction.

So, the main point we want to make here is to ask: is it really aligned? Does it bring you alive? Does it have energy? Because that feeds into everything else, right?

Gigi: That’s what makes it sustainable. Whatever project or business we grow, there will be hard times, and there will be good times. There’ll be moments where it’s easier and times when it’s more challenging. 

In those more difficult times, if it’s something that truly brings you alive if it’s something that lights you up, then you can sustain it. You can keep going with it through all those ups and downs.

Makena: Yeah, I love that because, like you’re saying, there are so many ups and downs in entrepreneurship, and this is true across the board. We’re using entrepreneurship here because it’s the most common example – women come to us wanting to make a leap in their business. 

But this applies to any stretch. Anytime you’re stretching yourself out of your comfort zone into something that’s scary, new, or challenging, anytime you’re making a quantum leap, it’s going to be a stretch. It won’t exist within the boundaries of your comfort zone.

In that stretch, it’s going to bring things up. This isn’t just about making a leap in business. 

Whatever that leap is, you need to be truly aligned. Having that alignment, that sense of aliveness, really creates the fuel, the energy that helps you get through the ups and downs – especially on the down days – and keep going.

Gigi: You want to be excited, you know? You want to feel that energy. You also want to feel like it’s a stretch, but one you can actually do. 

Sometimes I see people with ideas that light them up, but then they think, “It’s so complicated.” And that complexity makes them hesitate – which, thank goodness, sometimes saves them from going down the wrong path. 

But sometimes they go for it, and it turns out it wasn’t the right thing.

So, it’s really about feeling that it’s a stretch but also feeling excited about that stretch, knowing you can get in there and go for it.

Makena: Just to recap, a lot of times we see that when people want to make a leap, they’ll say, “Oh, I’ve wanted to grow this business,” or “I’ve wanted to make this leap,” and months – or even years – have gone by, and it’s still not happening. 

Often, it’s one of these two or three things:

One, it wasn’t truly aligned. It didn’t light them up, or it wasn’t aligned for one reason or another.

Two, as you were saying, they may be setting a goal or vision that’s too much of a stretch. It’s so far from where they are now that they can’t get their energy behind it. They can’t fully believe that it’s going to happen, or they can’t completely commit to it because it feels so far out there. And that’s something I love that you’ve always taught me, Gigi, and shared with many of our clients: we always ask, when they set a vision or a goal for a leap, “Is this energetically a stretch, but also achievable?” That’s the language you usually use.

And the third one we were just talking about is support. If we’re spinning our wheels, thinking, “I’m going to do this, I’m going to do this,” and it’s still not happening, then what got you here probably isn’t going to get you where you want to go. So somewhere in there, you may need support, or you may need someone on the outside looking in. 

That’s often what we do for people, right? We’re the sounding board, outside looking in, and we can see the opportunities, and other options, or reflect back on what we see in terms of that aliveness.

Is there anything else around those, Gigi, that you’d like to share?

Gigi: I think with the support piece, too, what I’ve seen is that just having someone there to be by your side can make all the difference. Sometimes it’s a very subtle shift, which is such an interesting thing. 

All someone needs is a person to talk it through with – someone who isn’t just going to jump in with advice, but instead provides real feedback.

And then what happens is the person gains clarity. With that support beside them, they’re able to make the shift. We see that happen all the time. I see that experience happen regularly.

Makena: Yeah, so those are three things to maybe consider if you’re sitting in that position, or you may be new to wanting to make this leap, in which case it’s great that you’re listening to this and you can know what are sort of the ingredients that make up the ability to do this and the ability to do it and not just be that one-hit wonder, but actually sustain it over time, have that growth or that change continue to sustain.

What else do you see, Gigi, in terms of what else can really help someone to create this shift if they’re feeling a little stuck around it, or they just don’t know the path to take, or they go, “I’m so busy already. How am I going to find the time to really make the jump that I want to make?”

Gigi: One thing is to cut the busy work. A lot of times, the busy work – I can watch myself get frenzied with this. I’ll be in a very busy time in my life, and I almost get into that energy of busy work.

So, in the spaces where I do have some time, I’m not focused in the way that I could be. And I think that’s common for people. To make and allow time to start a quantum leap, you have to create some space. See where you’re taking up time just being busy on that hamster wheel.

And we’ve talked about this in probably several podcasts now – scrolling on social media, for example. Eliminate those activities, and start putting the time into doing some thinking work or reflecting work to really see what you want to do. Then take actions that really move the needle.

You know, I love that – I read that book years ago, and I always use this with our ladies in the mastermind: what’s the one thing you could do today to move the needle towards your project and get results? Because that’s all it takes. That one thing a day, over a period of even 30 days, starts to really move and shift things.

And we, as human beings – I don’t know why – I guess we get distracted. We just don’t realize that those little subtle shifts, when they’re consistent, become something very sustainable.

Makena: Yeah, two great books on that topic. One is The One Thing – I don’t remember the authors, but we can link these in the show notes. And the other one is The Slight Edge. 

Gigi: The Slight Edge is also a really good one. 

Makena: That’s another great one about how the small things we do over time really, really add up. So if you want some audiobook recommendations, those would be some great ones.

And I love what you said about taking the time and space to reflect, first of all, because sometimes I think that’s the part people really miss, right? It’s like we’re in the doing all the time, or we’re distracted, like you’re saying, and just kind of habitual in our actions. 

But carving out that space to really reflect – and sometimes that’s hard to do by yourself, sitting at home or something like that.

That’s where coming to something like our masterclass, that we have coming up, is helpful because it’s this environment where we’re creating and curating the space. There’s a certain energy, especially if you get on that call live, and I highly recommend moving your calendar around if you can to be there live. 

The energy of a live call like that, when there are people tuning in from all over the world and everybody’s there learning and doing reflection questions, and you have that space – there’s something about that. 

Don’t you find, Gigi, that it really brings those aha moments and breakthroughs in a way that’s very different from just sitting there at home with a pen and paper, trying to get clear?

Gigi: Absolutely. One thing is it’s the collective consciousness, right? We’re sitting there, and people are talking, and we get new ideas from hearing other people or hearing someone speak.

It’s a real moment – being in that moment, which is very powerful when it comes to new ideas, or like you said, it brings those moments of, “Oh my gosh, I never thought about that.” 

By hearing other people, seeing what they’re going through, and seeing how they’re approaching things, we learn so much as well.

I was just going to say, it’s so simple. We just overcomplicate things like that.

Makena: I’ll never forget when one of our clients, who lives in Switzerland, joined one of our masterclasses – it was a free masterclass, like this one, a couple of years ago. We led a visioning process during that class, and she… I’m trying to remember the exact details of the story, but she saw… 

Yeah, you tell it.

Gigi: Yeah, so she saw… she was wanting to move – I might not get all the details exactly right. And when she was doing the visioning process, she saw this house she had looked at several years before and had talked to the lady who owned it. 

The lady had really wanted her to move there, but she had decided not to do it. She hadn’t thought about it in a long time and hadn’t talked to the woman. Then, the very next day, the woman reached out to her and said, “I would love for you to live in my house.”

Makena: And she reached out within 24 hours after she did this visioning process, saw this house, and was like, “Oh my gosh that’s where I would love to live.”

Gigi: Yeah. And the woman reached out to her, and then she reached out to me and said, “Is this me just getting distracted, or is this something I should really go for?”

And I said, “Oh my gosh, you should go for it. That is a sign, a wink from God or a sign from the universe – that is absolutely something you should pursue.” And so she did. She ended up moving there and was extremely happy. It’s a beautiful place. I visited her there a couple of times, and it’s such a beautiful place.

And, it completely changed her life. She was where she wanted to be… yeah, it was amazing.

Makena: So speaking of that, I just wanted to share – it popped into my mind as the power of coming to something like this, where you’re in this live experience. There is this collective energy; we all have this intention. In this case, the masterclass is about being the unstoppable woman, really becoming that unstoppable woman. And what will you do when you are that version of yourself, and what kind of leaps will you create? 

Giving yourself that time, carving out that time to really reflect.

Because from there, it becomes a lot easier to simplify. Like you were talking about, we overcomplicate things, we get caught up in the busy work. 

If you know the vision, you know where you’re going, then it’s easier to ask, “What’s going to really move the needle to get me there?” versus just being in our day-to-day, thinking, “Well, I kind of want to do this,” or “I want to make this leap; hopefully, it’s alive and aligned for me.”

Then we just start checking things off a list, like, “Okay, make a social media post, reach out to this person.” We just have this list, but often there’s not the energy or clarity behind it. It’s not, “This is what I want. This is the thing.” And then, how do I create the space and the time to make that happen?

Gigi: And why don’t you share, too – once we do that, what is it that we… how does somebody start with this? What do they do?

Makena: Well, we always talk about, instead of words like “discipline” and, you know, phrases like “you’ve got to be disciplined in taking your actions,” a word you came up with, Gigi, that I think is so beautiful is “rhythm.” 

Rhythm and follow-through. 

Rhythm is about the rhythm of your days, your weeks. We all have a rhythm of some kind – it might be a beautiful rhythm, or it might be more disjointed. But it’s about starting to be intentional about how you create your rhythm to ensure that you’re moving consistently in the direction of whatever that quantum leap is.

And then there has to be the follow-through. So often, people have these great ideas, they get excited, and then they just… don’t take the actions. Or more often than not, they take actions for a short time, then get distracted or fall off, and think, “Oh well, I fell off anyway, so whatever.”

And this is where, again, the support piece really comes in – looking at what that rhythm is going to be for your quantum leap. 

I think there’s a misconception about quantum leaps. People think “quantum leap” and imagine overnight success, or that it’s all going to happen in one grand moment. But the truth is, quantum leaps happen in baby steps. They happen in baby steps. And so it’s about creating your rhythm for those baby steps and then following through on it.

Gigi: Yeah, in your baby steps, a quantum leap can happen – that something, an opportunity, comes in that is a quantum leap. 

But normally it comes in if you’ve been taking those baby steps. 

That’s the part. You have to be doing the action.

Makena: Absolutely. And I know we’re going to tell the story in the masterclass coming up about when you made your first million, when you did your first million-dollar year in the early 1990s. So we’ll save that for the masterclass, but it’s a great story about how you really did this and what were the pieces that really led to you being able to make that quantum leap and to really, really grow… yeah, grow your business. 

I know you had a lot of systems in place and a lot of different pieces in place to make that happen.

All right. That is, I think, our steps for today. 

So, anything else you want to share on this? Or… I think that’s pretty clear.

Gigi: I think it’s clear. This is kind of like our secret sauce. So this is what we do with everyone. 

And like I said, when you’re sitting in it yourself, a lot of times it feels complex or confusing. And I think that’s true for anyone, really – even for us.

But then you get this clarity when you do these simple little steps. 

Again, it’s like we talk about – you know, there are instructions, and they’re written on the outside, and you can’t see them.

But you can begin. With what we shared with you today, you can absolutely begin those baby steps with the things we shared.

Makena: Just one more plug for the masterclass because it’s going to be so great. We’d love to see you all there. Here, you get to listen to us, and of course, it’s on your own time, and that’s wonderful. 

The masterclass is an opportunity for you to come on and actually get, you know, in that energy we talked about, but also maybe have some questions answered, hear from our panelists, and really support you to set the tone to make that quantum leap.

There will be a replay, but as mentioned, we highly, highly recommend making it live if you can. 

So you can go to wayofthemuse.com/unstoppable and sign up there for free. 

Please share it with your friends who might enjoy it as well. And we’re coming up on the holidays here – I think we have one more episode before Thanksgiving here in the U.S., so we’ll have some fun things coming up that are holiday-related for you all. And maybe some Black Friday sales, too.

So we’ll be in touch, and we’ll see you on the podcast next week. All right, thank you, thank you, thank you, everyone. Bye-bye.

Makena: Hi everyone, welcome back.

Gigi: Hello.

Makena: Today we’re talking about Bored With Your Career Or Business? Should You Leave Or Grow? 

So this is one we hear a lot. People say, “I don’t know. I’ve gotten to this point; I’m successful, but I don’t know if I want to make a change. I’m not very excited about what I’m doing anymore.”

Can you talk a little bit more about what you see here, Gigi?

Gigi: Yeah. I think we see that people start to feel dissatisfied with their business and begin to question, “Is this it?” 

When they started out, it was exciting, and they were earning, and then it gets to a point where all of a sudden, it just feels different. It starts to feel like a job. 

Another question is, “Is this the way things are going to keep going? Is this my life? Is this my business?” Because they’re feeling so burned out, and they’re unsure if they want to keep going like this. 

We see this a lot, especially with women. They work so hard at creating and growing a successful business, and then they look around and think, “Where’s my life?”

Makena: And not just businesses—many are in careers. Some of the stories we’re going to share today are about career women. They’re in corporate roles or small businesses, and it’s the same thing: working, working, working, and then one day they think, “Is this it?”

Gigi: Yes, exactly. And what I find is a lot of people don’t know how to tweak things without throwing everything away. 

They think, “I should just quit. I’m done with this business or career, I don’t like this job anymore.” 

We’ve had that happen many times, right, Makena? We can share a couple of stories about that. 

Some say, “I’ll move to a different company,” but then, as we’ll discuss, when we work with them, they start to see something changes. 

So, first of all, why don’t you share a story of someone you’ve worked with who was maybe in this position? What did you see, and how did you navigate this?

Makena: Yes, stories are the best way to illustrate some of these points. So, as you’re listening, you can really see what you can apply to you. 

One of our clients, when she came to us, had been in business for many years, and she had reached a plateau, basically, in her business where she wasn’t really growing much—like a little bit, but not much. And she was super burned out and felt she was having anxiety attacks almost every day.

Similar to my story in that regard. And she really— a part of her wanted to grow her business, but she felt like she didn’t have the energy to really grow or to even see a vision she was excited about. 

When she came in and started working with us, I remember for her, it wasn’t that she had some big vision other than, “Yeah, I’d love to grow my income; I’d love to grow my business.” 

And sometimes we see that—that when people are in this position, they can’t necessarily see a vision because they’re so in the weeds of whatever is going on.

The first thing we really did with her—and this was a few years ago now; she’s still working with us to this day because she’s had such huge changes and transformations and continues to—the first thing we really did was we looked at where were the energy leaks in her life, in her business, and her relationships. 

What were the drains on her energy or her time? And that was a wide variety of different things, right? 

It was everything from she was having conflict in her marriage and arguments with her partner to recurring conflicts there. She had certain pressures or breakdowns with her kids. 

In her business, she was working totally engrossed in the day-to-day of her business, had very little support, and was really just in the doing—like they say, kind of working in the business instead of on the business.

So those are just a few areas. 

We started to really break down each of these pieces and go, “Okay, how do we address these energy leaks?” 

And Gigi, maybe you want to share your approach to this idea around “every pressure needs a system.” We did a podcast episode on this, right?

Gigi: I think because you worked very much with her, you were starting to see where the pressures were. 

It’s always good to go and look to see what stands out the most. Where’s the one that’s really, really pressuring you? And as you said, sometimes that can be personal. 

That’s why we love and work so much with the women in our mastermind. It’s not just about business. It is very holistic—about every aspect of your life.

Because, like for her, I think part of what was happening is she had just kind of numbed herself out. And that’s what happens. That’s when we get bored, right? When we’re so numb. 

So what we start to do is go, “Okay, where’s the most pressure? And then what system would start to alleviate that pressure?” And we work through those, one after another. 

It’s incredible what starts to happen when you begin to get a system for something that is basically running your life. All of a sudden, if you think about it, it frees up time and energy. 

That’s really what we do. And a lot of our women have come back and worked with us for years because they’re ever-evolving and growing. 

We’re always looking to see, “How do you get yourself in that state where you have energy flowing and your frequency is higher and higher?” 

You can do that by starting to set up systems that alleviate the pressure in both your business and your personal life.

Makena: Yeah, it’s kind of the snowball effect. It feels like these are tiny little things, and you think, “What difference would this make?” But each one that you free up—imagine that’s energy. That’s why we call them energy drains or energy leaks; it’s energy that’s been leaking out of you. And then we clean that up, clear it out, and create a system, whatever that might be.

And sometimes, by the way, when we say “system,” that can also mean a communication system. Sometimes that’s teaching a communication skill that people think is so complicated. 

You were just saying that before we got on today, Gigi, like, “Oh, relationships are so complicated.” What did you say about that?

Gigi: I say people think that when they have issues in their relationship, it’s so complex, but the truth is, one simple shift can completely change the dynamic in a relationship—in a couple, in a business relationship, anywhere. And that’s what we show. 

If you’re willing to start by looking at your part in things and then make the change—because remember, we can’t change anyone else, only ourselves—then those small, subtle communication tweaks can open up everything.

Again, we’re talking about energy starting to flow and connections starting to happen again. 

Because I do want to say this: when you have those pressures in your system, they’re not just in the relationship with your partner. They’re filtering down into your business, into the way you show up in your business, the way you show up with your kids and the way you show up in your family. 

That’s why it’s so important to look at your systems as a holistic thing.

Makena: And that’s the course you’re running right now – The Way of Growing Love is really about that. It’s really about communication skills and the systems because that does impact every area of life. So, we’ll link that to the show notes if anybody’s curious about it.

But coming back to this idea of clearing up these energy leaks and then the snowball effect—it’s like, as a snowball rolls down the hill, it gets bigger and bigger, picking up snow along the way. 

It’s like every bit of energy you bring back in is the energy you now have. 

Before, you were feeling drained, bored, and tired because you didn’t have that, right? There were all these different leaks going on, maybe at work—probably—but also most likely in your personal life and in other areas.

And sometimes this is also like old, stuck emotion in people, right? 

So, with this client, we really came across—or we discovered as we were working together—areas where she was holding onto old anger, resentment, or upset. That was really sort of “gunking up the works,” so to speak. 

And we have processes to really lead people through to clear that up and out. Not to go in and just reprocess it and keep recycling the story or whatever happened, but to be able to really move that energy up and out. 

Because that, too, is kind of creating a—well, we don’t use the word “block,” but it’s creating a hold in the energy that we want to free up so that your vitality can come back online again.

Gigi: Yeah, because what happens when you begin to put those systems into place and free yourself up is that inspiration starts to kick in again. 

We saw this too with a woman who works for a company—it’s not her business—but she was feeling very frustrated, a little bored, and questioning if she was in the right place. She wondered if she’d made the right decision.

When we started working with her, we saw that a lot of the pressure was around having a lot of undelivered communications, and she felt like she couldn’t really talk about those. 

The truth is, when she did try, she ended up complaining and blaming, and that didn’t get us very far. But again, she had no idea how to approach it differently.

So, as we worked with her, we really showed her a new pattern of communication where she could share what was going on with her and be curious about what was going on with her boss. 

What happened was, all of a sudden, she had these skills to feel heard without being a victim. 

The change that happened within just a matter of two weeks was incredible because he started to open up to her. He really started to build a bridge with her, and she started feeling inspired by her work. 

And then, of course, money started to move.

It’s such subtle little things. 

Like I said, sometimes we make things so complex. But my experience is that people just don’t know what to do. 

It’s not because they have bad intentions—it’s that most of us weren’t taught how to communicate. We weren’t taught how to say things in a way that’s a win for everybody. 

So, of course, we’re unconscious, and we just blurt things out, creating more mess than harmony.

Makena: And in her case, I think there were certain things in her personal life too, right? 

So it was manifesting partially—or largely—around her career where she was questioning things. But when we dug in deeper, there were also things to address on a personal level.

If you want to touch on that at all, or just share what you often see with people in terms of—maybe not necessarily her, but that there are often things going on in their relationships, or they’re not taking care of themselves. 

What do you see there?

Gigi: Absolutely. If we have a pattern of communication and it’s around blaming or complaining, normally we’re doing it at home and at work, right? 

If we don’t know how to do it at work, we probably don’t know how to do it at home. 

And that was true for her. She was more focused on complaining and not really asking for what she wanted.

As you mentioned, Makena—which I talk about in The Way of Growing Love—a huge part of it was that she wasn’t taking care of herself. 

You must take care of yourself first and fill up your own cup because that really allows you to have energy again and be willing to make changes that will enhance your relationships. 

When we’re drained, frustrated, and bored, we really don’t want to change, right? We feel a little self-pity and think if somebody’s going to change, they should change first.

But again, going back to that, when we fill our own cup and take care of ourselves, then what happens is we have a new kind of energy, and then we can really go out and start to make changes.

Makena: I’m going to play devil’s advocate here and say what I would have said a few years ago. I’m going to pretend I’m one of these women because now I definitely care for myself first.

But I’m going to say, “How am I supposed to take care of myself first, right? I’m so busy. I’m busy at work.” 

And for a lot of these women: “I have kids at home, I have my partner, I’ve got all these different things going on. It’s just not possible. You know, maybe in 10 years, when my kids are out of the house, then I can take care of myself. But it’s really just not possible right now.”

Gigi: Well, I would say this: it’s always possible. If your life depended on it, you would do it. You would find the time. 

And to me, and this is what I share with all the women I work with, your life does depend on it, because you are the battery pack for your family. 

In that way, you’re the most important person in the world.

If you think about it, turn off Facebook, turn off social media for 30 minutes a day, and instead, take that time and focus it on you. Really find a couple of things that truly nourish you, even if that’s going and sitting out on your balcony, drinking a cup of coffee, and not scrolling on your phone—whatever that is. 

Start with little baby steps because those small times will add up to so much time and energy for you.

I’m going to tell you that no matter how busy you are, you absolutely have time to carve out time for yourself. 

It comes down to really committing to do it.

Makena: Yeah, that’s right on. And we see that when women do this, it really makes a shift, right? 

What comes up for me, as I’m role-playing this and being in the energy of this woman, is this feeling of frustration and resentment, of feeling like I give, give, give to so many others in my life.

So, are you saying the key to really shifting that is to start putting myself first? 

It’s almost like I don’t even want to do that because I feel so frustrated and a little resentful.

Gigi: Yeah, and we get caught up in that. When we work with this, we go deeper into it. 

But it’s really about taking a little time—maybe going for a walk in nature every day, or sitting down and journaling in the morning, making sure you’re by yourself for a few minutes. 

What happens is you start to feel your soul—you reconnect to your soul—and that energy starts to build. Then, you can start to see how to navigate if you’re feeling resentful and doing too much.

By first connecting with yourself, you can start to see where those pressures are in your life and find ways to get support, maybe delegate, or eliminate some of the things you’re doing so you have more time for yourself. 

But first, set that time aside and make it for yourself, and you will absolutely be amazed. And keep it consistent.

Makena: Yeah, we had a woman on the mastermind call this morning in the Wealthy World Changers who had this pattern of giving to everybody else, right? Putting everybody else ahead of herself. 

It was interesting because, through the coaching this morning, she really saw that that was a choice she had made. She realized that she was a really powerful woman who, over the years, made this choice to put her family first, to put her partner first, to put everybody else first.

That was great in some ways, but she also overextended and overdid it. But ultimately, it was her choice, and it was really impactful for her to see that. 

She is choosing now to shift that in certain ways and still, of course, be there for her loved ones, but to really prioritize herself.

I really see there’s this “badge of honor,” especially for women, around over-giving and self-sacrificing. 

Is there anything you could speak to there? 

Because I see it with people, and it’s hard to watch. It feels very, I guess, cultural—that’s what’s revered, or maybe what women think is expected of them, or what they should do to be a good person. 

I’m not sure where it comes from, or if that even matters, but it’s just this interesting thing where women think—and maybe others too; we just work primarily with women—but they wear it as a badge of honor that they’re self-sacrificing.

Gigi: Well, one thing is that women love to give. It’s in our nature to care and to care for others. 

When it becomes like that badge of honor, though, it’s when we become important in it. 

What I find sometimes is that women continue to do this because they’re scared to have that space and time—they really don’t know what to do with themselves. 

That’s why we say, look and see what nurtures you and have that thing to do. Because a lot of times, a woman will say, “Well, if I’m not caring for everyone, what do I do with my time?”

And it does make us feel important. It makes us feel like we matter.

Makena: Valued. That’s where a lot of women start to derive their value—from giving to other people. 

But then it gets to be too much, and they start to feel frustrated or resentful underneath. 

They worry, “If I don’t do this, what value do I have?” 

Especially women who aren’t working or something like that. But even women who are working really have this pattern.

Gigi: We could go into a whole thing there, especially around women and motherhood and things like that. 

We feel like if we don’t do it, somehow we’re guilty and not doing what we’re supposed to do for our children. 

And that’s a whole rabbit hole. 

Makena: We’re going to do a whole episode on mom guilt. That one’s coming, so if you’re listening to this and you’re like, “That’s me,” just know that’ll be coming in the next few weeks.

Gigi: But going through all this, I think the best thing is if you’re in this moment right now and you say you have no time, start paying attention to where you waste time. 

Start paying attention to all that time you’re sitting, scrolling through Instagram or Facebook, or all that time you’re cleaning up when you really don’t need to be. 

Then take those times and say, “Wait a minute, tomorrow, this time—this 30 minutes—is going to be for me. I’m going to set my phone off, turn off the TV, and I’m going to do something. I’m going to take that walk in the woods, or I’m going to sit down and read a great book.” 

Like for you, Makena, it’s reading fiction books. So whatever it is for you, you have to see.

Makena: Yeah. And so what starts to happen here as people clear these energy leaks and really start to do more of what nurtures them and care for themselves first—then the energy starts to build. 

Then what do we see happen a lot of the time? I mean, I’ll speak for the one client we were talking about who has her own business. 

She started to have so much more energy, vitality, and vision. She suddenly was seeing, “Oh, this is how I’d love to grow.” 

For her, a big part of it was travel. She really wanted to travel more and spend time abroad with her family or take them on different trips. She’s been able to do that now. 

She’s grown huge since then in her business and is working a tiny fraction of the time she was working before. She has support in her business, she has systems set up, and she continues to just grow and grow. 

Gigi: She doubled her income.

Makena: I think more than doubled. And she’s working half the time from when she started. Now she’s traveling, they’re moving into their dream home—all these things are coming online. 

The other interesting thing with her is that vision started to come through around finding more meaning—like what was really important to her in her personal life, but also through her business and the different ways she wanted to give back. 

That really started to create fulfillment for her.

So even though she didn’t leave her business, she stayed in it and has really grown it. Now, she has such a different feeling around it. 

She’s not bored in her business. She loves what she’s doing. There’s a meaning element, there’s support—so that’s really fulfilling for her.

What do you see in people like the women we’ve talked about who are in more corporate roles? 

We’ve had multiple women who thought maybe they were going to pivot or make a shift, and they ended up realizing, “No, I actually want to double down here and really stay.”

Gigi: What happens is they get a great new opportunity in the business because they shift their attitude—they get promoted. 

Often, they free up time where they can really focus on their relationship – we see that. 

Often, with women who maybe have grown apart from a partner and really want to rebuild their love relationship. So they get to spend more time there. 

Or they get curious, and their mind starts to open up to how they want to grow in a company. And then, all of a sudden, they get seen and they get promoted. 

I’ve seen that happen many, many, many, many times.

Makena: And sometimes a creative project comes along or something they want to do in their personal life. It’s not that they need or want to shift careers—they’re a lot happier and more fulfilled in their work. And then they create things in their personal life that are super fulfilling as well.

I do want to touch on, before we begin to wrap this up, that we’ve talked a lot about people who are bored or unhappy and stay in what they are doing. 

We’ll have other episodes where we go deeper into this. 

But I will say that for some people, you will find that you want to make a change. 

That was really my story—I was bored in my business, and I was unhappy and burning out. Through this process, I really saw, “Actually, yes, I do want to do something different.” 

So that may be the end result.

I don’t know if it’s exactly the same process, but there are still many of the same steps in terms of clearing the energy leaks and starting to move in a direction. 

We talked in the last episode about aliveness, so if you haven’t gone back and listened to that one, that’s a huge piece of the puzzle as well. 

But I just wanted to touch on the fact that for some people, they do see, “Oh, I do want to make a change.”

Gigi: Yeah, because when you do clear those energy leaks, it frees you up. Then, what really begins to happen is clarity dawns. 

You start to see—like the woman you talked about before, one of the clients—she started to see that she really wanted to grow her business, and she saw a new way of doing that. You really helped her with that and helped her organize how to do that and how to put that into action.

So often, someone will say, “I do want to make a shift.” And then they can start to transition, but they transition with clarity instead of going out feeling, “Oh, I hate this. I don’t want to do it anymore.” 

They leave with good energy, in a very conscious manner, and choose the next thing.

I’ve had the same thing happen with people around relationships. 

They’re thinking, “Do I want to stay, or do I want to go?”

I always have them walk through the same thing—clear out those energy leaks, get super, super clear, and do what you really see to do here. 

So, if you decide to leave, there’s no question that you did the most you could to make this work, so they don’t have regret, guilt, or anything like that.

Makena: Something about what we’ve been talking about here is, like you mentioned at the beginning, people don’t know how to make a change without leaving everything or starting over—throwing it all out or throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

That’s something you really walked me through when I was making a shift. Even for the people who decide they’re not going to change, there’s still the step-by-step approach. 

Once you started to see the path, you helped me with the transition—making that plan, taking the steps, and doing it in such a way that I didn’t burn any bridges. I kept great relationships with my clients from my previous business, and some of them even came over to work with me as a coach. 

I was doing marketing with them before; one of our longtime clients in our mastermind was a client of mine in my marketing business. Then she came in, and she’s even referred us to business.

So you helped me do it in a way that I wasn’t throwing out what was working, and I really was able to approach that step-by-step.

So all of this is really leading to this theme we’re talking about right now, which is becoming an unstoppable woman. 

And what does that mean in this context? 

If you’re sitting there feeling bored in your business or in your career, feeling dissatisfied—probably not feeling very unstoppable right at this moment, right? 

So what does it take for you to really step out and into that energy where you’re like, “I am going to create my life the way I want it. I’m going to have a career or a business that I love. I’m going to do whatever it takes, and I’m going to get the support I need.”

A lot of times, we see people hesitate or get stuck. 

Can you talk a little bit about that? We see people kind of take two different paths here: either they really go for it, or… yeah, what do you usually see around that?

Gigi: I mean, there are the women who think, “Oh, when this and this happens, I’ll do it,” you know, and it’s “When my kids are grown, then I’ll finally do it,” or “When I find the time, I’ll finally do it.” 

They have a lot of different excuses versus the ones who say, “No, I’m going to do this now. These years are precious, and I’m going to do this for my kids.” 

Instead of waiting until the kids are grown, they’re saying, “I’m actually going to go for my life for my kids,” because the greatest example in the world is you living your life fully—it gives your children a role model to follow.

And this is what I think women so many times don’t understand. Sitting around and waiting doesn’t give their kids that role model. 

So, you really, really—you’ve got to choose. Which one are you? And whichever one you are, if you want to wait until your kids are grown, that’s perfectly fine. 

But within yourself, make a choice, and then be happy with your choice.

Makena: What if it’s not till their kids are grown? 

I mean, there are other examples, right? So that’s one. 

We see a lot of the time with women – another example would be someone unhappy in their career. 

I’m trying to think what it was for me when I was really sitting there feeling stuck,

Gigi: Figure out how to get out of it. It was a double bind all the time.

Makena: Yeah, I just could not navigate. I could not get clear. 

But also, Even when I did—to your point about becoming an unstoppable woman here and really just going for it—even when I did get clear, I actually tried to start coaching on my own a year before you supported me.

What I really see looking back at that is that it totally flopped. What I really see, looking back, is that I wasn’t fully committed. 

When the going got tough, I thought, “Okay, it must not be it.” 

I had a lot of fear and a lot of reasons, and I was waiting for the universe to show me by lining everything up perfectly, in a sense. 

I was willing to get in there and work, but I was also wanting things to just kind of work on their own.

So this theme we’re talking about around the unstoppable woman is really this piece of, at least for the sake of this podcast episode, if you’re feeling bored, unhappy, or dissatisfied, getting clear on if you’re going to just continue that way for now. 

And if you are, then make that choice, you know, and then see how you can maybe be a little happier in what you’re doing. Focus on what is working, right?

Or are you in a place where you’re like, “No, I want to—” It doesn’t have to mean you’re going to pivot, but you want to make a change. You want to love your day-to-day experience. You want to feel that excitement and passion again, and you want to feel like that unstoppable woman. 

That’s what we’re really speaking about here in terms of where you are right now, really getting clear, and making that choice.

We have a Masterclass coming up—I don’t think we’ve mentioned it yet in this episode—on November 19th, 2024, called The Unstoppable Woman. 

So, if you’re listening to this sometime around that time period, and you’re saying, “No, I’m ready to shift something here. I’m ready to not throw out what’s working, but really see what the evolution will be. I don’t want to wait any longer, and I don’t want to sit in this any longer.”

If that’s you, then come to this free masterclass. 

You can go to wayofthemuse.com/unstoppable. 

We’re really going to walk you through a process to support you in stepping into that version of yourself. So we’d love to see you there.

Gigi: Yeah. So, thank you so much for this topic. It’s a good topic.

Makena: Absolutely. One we hear all the time. I hope it served you, and we look forward to seeing you next time.

Gigi: Thank you, Makena. Bye.
