>>>Is this You?
Perhaps there’s even a part of you...that feels it’s a bit of a compliment?
Society has created such extraordinary expectations of women —they have absolutely permeated our culture.
So much so that most of us have forgotten to consider whether they even make sense for us as human beings.
We women are often so used to giving and serving others— endlessly doing —that we don't think about what we actually want.
How we want to feel.
What we want life to be like.
And we forget that
we have the power to serve ourselves in the
same way we serve others.
Of course it’s admirable + worthwhile
Of course it’s admirable + worthwhile
to look outwards + contribute
to life around you
HUMAN CONNECTION
IS ESSENTIAL
But when you look outside yourself for EVERYTHING...
for validation, for perspective, for answers...
that’s when it all goes out of balance
You start measuring your success...by other people’s standards.
You let your happiness be determined...by the people and circumstances around you.
And you wonder why your life... no longer feels like your own.
And as a result...
Problems feel enormous.
Setbacks are shattering.
The pressure feels suffocating.
And you can’t seem to please anyone.
Including yourself, come to think of it
(which you never really do).
If this is burnout, you understand why everyone talks about it and no one wants it.
It's time to reclaim your power.
As a woman.
As YOU
Power is aligning WHAT YOU DO... with WHO YOU ARE
Traditional business “wisdom” is to look outside you and focus on the problem you're solving for others. This is important, of course. You must be sure that there’s an audience for your offer—for what you do.
But it overlooks something. What is the source of this work? And how can the energy behind it be sustained over time?
There’s an essential step that comes before you start on your business. It’s about making sure that
what you're doing is actually truly aligned with you, and who you are.
That way, when you’re doing the work—when you’re marketing, selling and serving your customers—you're doing it in a way that works for you. And you can keep doing it, as long as you like.
When you look inside,
and align what you offer,
with what you truly desire...
and with being the person
you were born to be…
THAT'S when you learn how to do business and make money in a way that will truly sustain you.
THAT'S how you find success and satisfaction on your terms.
THAT'S how you really find your life’s work.
ALIGNED power is the key to TRUE and LASTING success
If you’ve not aligned what you do with who you are, it’s not too late. It’s never too late to find your life’s work.
That doesn’t mean it’s easy.
But it is possible.
The key is Small Evolutionary Change™.
Bit by bit.
First you have to know where you want to go. But you don’t have to know exactly how you’ll get all the way there.
As you start to walk out on the way, the way appears.
RUMI
Knowing this, honouring this, is not a luxury. It's fundamental.
If you don’t know who you are, and how to do this – this Small Evolutionary Change™ – you'll fall flat on your face.
Without it, that's when we get burned out, overwhelmed, lose the plot.
And ultimately, that's when women quit, whether it’s entrepreneurship or enterprise.
Forcing yourself to keep going by using external motivators is not sustainable.
If you’ve read this far, it’s likely you already know this. You know how it feels to give away your power.
THE QUESTION IS WHAT TO DO NOW
CHANGE NEEDS A CATALYST.
TRANSFORMATION NEEDS A CONFIDANTE.
We all have the answers inside us. Sometimes we can’t see them.
Sometimes we don’t want to see them.
As powerful as we women are, we need some support.
When we feel understood, then we can understand—the why behind our work, what the work is that we want to do, who we can serve with this work.
You DON'T have to work for someone else in an outdated business model that leaves you exhausted and wishing there was more to life.
You DON'T have to measure your success by someone else’s standards.
You CAN wake up each day with excitement and an appreciation of a life that you love.
You CAN get there. You might just need a little help to begin to see your path.
JUDITH WRIGHT
I've worked with other coaches, mentors in my time… Nobody quite works like Miranda works. She helps you to uncover things and find solutions and answers. And the reason I think that they're so profound is because you found them yourself. She facilitates that process.
She's really insightful and she could look at a situation and she would be able to say well if you do this, this, this and this, that's what will happen. And she would be correct. But actually because you found that [solution] yourself, it fits you, it suits you, you own it and through owning it is what gives you your power.
MEET MIRANDA CHRISTOPHER
Miranda Christopher is a change catalyst and a confidante. She is the truest kind of leader – the kind who inspires others to lead themselves.
In her corporate life, she has spent more than 25 years leading and increasing performance on complex, challenging and large-scale change initiatives for substantial organisations. The core of her talent has always been in her ability to assess a situation, shape a solution, then mentor each company’s own people into moving forward—creating sustainable, meaningful, lasting change
.
Miranda built a successful, multi six-figure consulting practice on her expertise—before exhausting herself and experiencing exactly the kind of burnout she now helps women avoid.
Over her many years of doing corporate work, Miranda noticed something interesting. During most projects, there would come a point, when working with the executives, when she would get a bit of a whisper in the ear: “Have you got a minute, can we just have a chat?”
And over a coffee, the executive would share their own situation, and their uncertainty. Miranda would use her intuition and perspective
to help them create a strategy and a plan.
It was in these confidential coffee chats that Miranda began to sense the power of using incremental, transformational frameworks for personal growth. And she saw the untapped feminine power and potential just waiting to be unlocked in so many women, and in
a more feminine way of doing business.
[Miranda is] a wonderful human being, she really is. We have really good fun…
She’s insightful and knowing and definitely transformational.
And there’s just a sense of fun and mischief about [her] which I quite like.
JUDITH WRIGHT
Working with Miranda is for women who…
Wonder why they feel exhausted and burnt out, even when they look successful from the outside
Feel like there must be more to life—a better way—
even if they don’t know exactly what it is yet
Are ready to be truly seen,even if it means facing tricky truths or uncomfortable challenges
ESTELLE BALFOUR
"[Miranda shows you that] you're not alone in…having to juggle everything and recognising that you can't do it all. And if you keep trying to do it all you're just exhausting yourself in other areas—and the recognition as well of who you need around you, massively.
I love the way that we can just say the old rules don't count anymore… I love the fact you're being given permission to break that conditioning. It gives you more strength behind it, it gives you more the courage to push that through. [Miranda] delivers that really well because it feels like you have somebody else working with you on your team… that's pushing in the same direction as you. It's valuable.
The strange thing is you might be working in one area but while you're also doing the self work, other stuff's coming in from the other side that you've wanted to come through…it’s creating space for it to come through. […] Since working with Miranda, [my business] has increased, it’s flowed, year on year it’s increased in its turnover"

S BALGOBIN
Women today have more opportunities than any other generation before them—more opportunities to create, contribute, be visible.
But with that comes a lot of noise.
And often, it’s too overwhelming to figure out who to listen to, what to believe, how to implement all that “advice.”
Thankfully, you DON'T have to do that to be successful.
You don’t have to figure out whose advice to follow. You don’t have to learn a new “system” or decide who you "should" listen to.
You don’t have to give that power to someone else.
Because it’s already inside YOU.
And if you want some support in finding it, in trusting yourself to take one small step at a time on your own unique path, now you know where to turn.
