Episode 029 - How Your Inner Work Creates Your Outer Results with Kelly Ruta
Guest Bio
Key Takeaways
- What is mindset and how does it relate to making money?
- Mindset is how you develop your inner game
- Your inner game is all the inner work that you do in how you deal with your mind and emotions and how those two things come together in order to make decisions and get into action
- Bringing to the table your empowered mindset will have a direct effect on your bottom line in a positive way
- The issue of mindset manifests itself in both inner and outer working symptoms
- Outer working symptoms are not achieving the results you desire
- Inner working symptoms are constant feelings:
- frustration, struggle, and feeling like you have to constantly hustle and grind
- feeling guilty about raising your prices or paying yourself or even collecting on accounts receivable
- resistance to hiring a really powerful team to help you grow the business
-

-
- So we are both fans of Profit First and when clients come to me wanting to implement this system after having read the book, I typically start off our engagement by going through their financials and deconstructing their money flows and putting it into the different containers of Profit, Owner’s comp, taxes, etc and what I found as 2 of the common struggling areas is that 1. they are not paying themselves what they should and 2. they are not either charging what they should or not collecting what they should. And when I’ve addressed that with them, what I found is that their belief as entrepreneurs is that they are supposed to struggle and the idea of charging or collecting money seems in poor taste even though they know they are in business to make money - Can you speak to that?
- Women, in general, have been taught that our worth is tied up in what we do for others, so many women experience feelings of guilt and shame when pricing their products and services in alignment with the value they provide
- When we are making money in alignment with providing high value, we are then able to turnaround and do so much good for ourselves, for our families and our communities
- Worth vs Value
- Worth is a birthright not earned
- Value are the results, the outcomes, and transform that we either create or co-create with our customers
-
-
- How can overcome those limiting beliefs?
- Take stock in the work you have done over your lifetime, whether paid or not paid, and determine what service you provided
- Do not minimize the results you have helped people achieve already
- Get a hold on the imposter syndrome
- Place limits and boundaries the use of social media
- Have a focus, intent and purpose for being on social media
-
- Do not buy into competition but only compete and compare your results with yourself in the past as a way to benchmark your progress
- We set goals based on what we believe the having of them, the being of them, or the doing of them will make us feel
-
- So how can you get yourself into money mindset where you are comfortable charging what your worth and receiving the money?
- We are not 100% responsible for our clients results (this can vary depending on the industry)
- Do not promise something you can not deliver on if you provide done-for-you type of services
- If you co-create results with your clients, you can invite your clients to do the worth with you but you can not make them do the work so the price you charge is for the delivery of your expertise and the promise is in doing the work will attain results
- The key this success is selling from a place of service and integrity
- Saying no to non-ideal clients it opens up your ability to not only attract but serve your ideal clients

So for many entrepreneurs it feels more natural to focus on what is wrong more often than what it right because what is wrong is what gets attention. It is why many entrepreneurs and business owners tend to fall into the trap of putting out daily fires in their business and don’t often take the time to really look at all the areas that are going right and that they are strong. And really and truly, it is going to be focussing on your strengths and the strengths of those around you that will take your business to that next level and my guest today is here to share his expertise on how we can do just that.

In this episode we will be talking about something that is near and dear to my heart. As most of your know, I mentioned a couple episodes ago my mother had fallen ill and unfortunately passed away. The whole experience as many of you can imagine was very difficult for a number of reasons. But probably the most difficult was just how unprepared me and my family were, especially preparing all the legal stuff. For those of you that may have experienced a terminal illness of a loved one, you know that alone is painful but when you are completely unprepared for how everything is going to be handled during and after, it can be quite unbearable. Well my guests today are 2 of some of the kindest and heart-centered lawyers I know and they happen to be sisters to boot. They took what could have been a tremendously confusing, chaotic and frantic situation and made it as simply and easy as possible. And I have invited them here to today to talk to us about the conversations we need to start having with our loved ones and the planning that needs to be done now, both personally as well as for our business, so that if God forbid you find yourself in a similar situation as I was last year, you will at least have that peace of mind knowing that all the major decisions and planning have already been done so that you can focus on being there for your loved one.
