Have you ever had the fear that if you really put yourself out there and expressed yourself in a larger way that people might think, or even say to your face, “you are a fraud”?
It’s one of the most common fears I see in my work as I midwife people through huge breakthroughs to become fully and courageously expressed.
After all, it’s a pretty serious statement for someone to say to you, or even say behind your back.
The fear makes sense. If you’re honest, you’ve probably called someone else a fraud or a phony or lacking in integrity, at some point in your life, so what will stop others judging you in the same way?
I want to cut to the heart of this fear and pull it apart.
This fear is stopping you!
– From truly being seen and acknowledged for your greatness and zone of genius
– From creating momentum in your career
– From fully answering your soul’s call
– From speaking the truth
…and more!
Watch this week’s Awaken TV episode here to finally get a handle on this fear.
If you are not fully in the flow of your divine calling and not taking massive action, then you need to watch this now.
I say some pretty controversial statements in this video, so I would love to hear what you think. You can leave a comment below the video.
Much love,
Rachael Jayne
Great reminder! Thanks RJ!
Hi RJ, I loved this talk. And I was one of the folks at Awakening whose shadow word was “FRAUD”! And since then, I have become “loud and proud” of that word rather than “hiding in the shadows” from that word. It is just a word! Also realized as I watched today, I wouldn’t turn away a client that needs me because I or someone didn’t think she was fully evolved enough at this point in his/her life. Now that action on my part would make me a rather unconscious Spiritual Teacher – don’t you think? So I am no longer hiding from the idea of being called or labeled as a fraud. Thanks
Hi Rachael,
This was great. It was just what I needed to hear to day! Thank you for the work that you do, it matters. Barbara Conner
I can totally relate. And I’ve been here many times (breaks are on because of fear which feels so real sometimes!) but I notice they are getting shorter and less often. Perhaps even the smaller sideswipes don’t even impact me any more. All part of conditioning for success RJ. Thank you, this was good timing.
Great video RJ! I can’t hear this message enough. I am a fraud. I am uninspiring. I have no impact. All of those are shadows for me and related I think. More and more I am embracing all three of these. Fake it til I make it here I come!… in certain circumstances, that is. Thank you!
My take on “fake it until you make it” is that it is aligning with the truth of who I am rather than aligning with my limited self.
Therefore I am not “faking it” so much as I am aligning with my higher self not with my limited self. That feels good to me…
I have been following you for years now and I love how you use the ideas of personality-ego vs soul. I call it mind vs heart but it’s essentially the same thing. I have been using your methods with my clients with great results, integrating hypnosis with your practices to make them even more powerful. Thank you especially for the trainings I have been on (online, since I am in the UK) and for your first book ‘powerful and feminine”. I used your visualization of the light globe countless times on stage and at clubs and it’s made a huge difference. While I used to be invisible everyone notices me now. 🙂
Thank you love this 🙂
Thank you so much. I usually do not open emails like this but compelled me to read and listen. It shuttled my wall into pieces. I am healing from many of life’s issues that a lot of them I caused. I am rebuilding myself and wanted to return home, reestablish my business. I have put some effort into it but have be procrastinating the complete out of fear that I am not there yet, I need to get a little stronger. Well no more, I am right where I need to be to do it NOW. I AM not perfect and still have RAW areas but I will continue to hold on to God’s instincts while I work to grown and achieve with his wisdom.
I loved this video and how you get down to the finer details of perspectives and attitudes that stop us from maximizing our potential. In marketing seminars it’s often said to present yourself like an expert even though you aren’t an expert.
That is difficult immediately because in that case you are setting yourself up
to be fraudulent. I get the fake til you make it but as you pointed out, it’s important to be clear where you are coming from and what part of yourself is motivating
that approach.
Love this reminder. Thank you! x
