Hey Friend!
In today's manifesto, we explore how the smallest decisions—like buying a pair of $40 fuzzy boots—can completely shift your mindset and energy in life and business. Because let’s be real: it's never just about the boots.
Here’s the story.
I live in Florida, where winter is more of a fleeting suggestion than a season. The weather dips for a moment, maybe two to four weeks, before we’re back to sandals and iced coffees. So when I spotted a pair of fuzzy boots on one of my coworkers and fell in love with them, my first thought was Why bother?
Florida’s "cold" wouldn’t last long enough to justify the purchase. It felt impractical, wasteful even. But that wasn’t really the issue, was it? My hesitation wasn’t about the weather. It was about my mindset.
The Money Mindset Moment
As I sat there deliberating over a $40 purchase, I had to ask myself an important question:
If I wasn’t worried about money, would I buy the boots?
The answer? A resounding yes.
So what was holding me back? The answer came quickly: scarcity. Not scarcity in my bank account, but scarcity in my mind. I was defaulting to the version of myself who questions every purchase, prioritizes "practicality," and operates from lack instead of abundance.
And you know what? That’s not who I want to be. Not in life, and definitely not in business.
(For the overthinkers, the second-guessers, and the ‘I should have figured this out by now’ crowd.)
You don’t need another strategy. You need to stop second-guessing yourself. Let’s clear the noise.
WTF is not a coaching session. It’s not me handing you a step-by-step blueprint. It’s me helping you untangle the thoughts that are keeping you stuck, so you can finally hear your own damn clarity.. LEARN MORE >
Living as My Up-Leveled Self
Here’s the thing about embodying your next-level self: It’s about more than vision boards and affirmations. It’s about action. It’s about showing up as her, making decisions like her, and trusting yourself to step into that energy before you feel "ready."
For me, buying those boots wasn’t just about staying cozy during a fleeting cold front. It was about saying:
I trust myself to spend money on things that bring me joy.
I give myself permission to want something "just because."
I am worthy of abundance, even in small, seemingly trivial ways.
It’s funny how something as simple as a pair of boots can serve as a portal into a different state of mind. Because once I made that purchase, everything shifted. I started thinking differently. Moving differently. Showing up differently.
Permission Granted
That $40 transaction wasn’t just about shoes—it was about permission. Permission to choose myself. Permission to embody abundance. Permission to stop asking, “Is this practical?” and start asking, “Does this align with the woman I’m becoming?”
And when you move with that kind of energy, it ripples into every area of your life—including your business. Suddenly, I wasn’t second-guessing myself when it came to investing in tools, resources, or ideas for my business. I wasn’t obsessing over "proving" my decisions to myself or anyone else.
I simply acted like the version of me who knows what she’s doing. Because I do.
This is for you if: ✔ You keep thinking in circles about your next move, but never actually make one.
✔ You have all the “right” tools (AI, courses, books, coaches) but still feel unsure.
✔ You’re sick of overcomplicating things and just want someone to see what you’re missing.
✔ You know you’re meant for more—you just need a nudge back into your flow.
Here’s how it works:
→ You book a WTF session.
→ We hop on a call and get straight to the real sh*t.
→ I help you cut through the mental clutter and find the decision, action, or shift you’ve been looking for.
→ You leave knowing exactly what to do next (without the overthinking spiral).
You already have the answers. WTF just helps you hear them.

What This Means for You
The next time you catch yourself hesitating—whether it’s over a $40 purchase, a new offer in your business, or taking a day off to rest—ask yourself:
What would the next-level version of me do right now?
Would she wait? Second-guess? Downplay her needs and desires? Or would she act from trust, confidence, and abundance?
The choice is always yours, but I’ll tell you this: your life and business will rise to meet the energy you bring.
The Takeaway
Sometimes, it's not about the big investments or the grand gestures. It's about the $40 pair of fuzzy boots. It's about recognizing where you're holding back and giving yourself permission to step into the energy of your up-leveled self.
Every choice you make is a declaration of who you are becoming. And sometimes, those declarations look like cozy boots in the middle of a Florida winter.
