I just can't tell you how excited I am about today. Today I have a very special guest with me who is
not only a guest but she's a friend, a very special friend that I had the privilege and honor to meet
her and her husband when we were in Marbella, Spain last year. And just the connection with each
other means everything to me and I'm so grateful, Claire, that you're with us. And my friends, I
want to introduce you to Claire Nutt and Claire, come on and just share who you are, where you are,
what you do and let the audience just enjoy you as much as I have. Absolutely. And firstly, I'm so
grateful to be here. I'm so grateful that you asked me to join you to have this conversation on a
topic that I am very, very passionate about. My name is Claire Nutt. I am first and foremost a very
powerful lady. I am an entrepreneur and started my business about three years ago. And around the
same time, started to get into the idea and understanding of mindset, self image and mentorship.
So someone guiding me through my thoughts, my feelings, how they've impacted my life and how I
could literally change my life. I am in the first year of my 40s and it's been incredible. I'm about
turn 41 in a month and never in a million years would I have said my life would be this good in
your 40s too. And it took me a while to get there but I'm here. I run a very successful six for bigger
business. I have an amazing husband. We're currently building our dream home. I have a beautiful
network and connection of friends and I have to say my life is good. Life is really good and it's
got a lot to do with the topic that we're going to talk about today. Oh, that's awesome. And wow,
that speaks volumes. That speaks so much and almost 41. Wow. So we don't even want to go there.
We don't want to go there where I am at that point. But you know what, when I was 41,
I had been married for, let's see, almost eight years, almost 10 years. And I can't say that I
was even close to where I am today. And just to see where you are and what's ahead of you,
oh my gosh, that is, that's so awesome. That I'm so proud of you. So proud. It's that
beautiful excitement and knowingness that every day just keeps getting better. Yes. And with
understanding about empowerment, about mindset, about your self-image, with the learning and the
study and the mentorship around that, that literally changes your life. And I am absolutely
a product of that success. I understand because I'm on that way too. My friends, I want you to
know that, I mean, Claire and I are under the same mentor in the same mentorship. So we are
always or constantly improving ourselves because we know how important it is for us to grow
into the person that we were meant to be. And that's the whole purpose of this podcast is just to
help women understand there is so much more to you than just what you see on the outside,
just that surface stuff. And once we start learning how to start digging and like the onion,
start peeling the layers away, there is such a beautiful soul that is deep within us that we
need to bring out because people need to know who you are because you have something unique about you
that no one else has. We're all unique. And I think that's what's really important, right?
Yeah. And being able to express that uniqueness in a comfortable and happy way is the key thing,
I think. You're not competing with yourself and I know we're going to tell you about that, but
it's been able to express yourself, be happy with who you are and know that the people around you
support you and come into the likes of a community that you grow so you can be surrounded by those
empowering people that do, they're you for the happiness, that do you understand you and do you
understand how your mind works. Yeah, because that is something we're never taught. And it's that
that void that we have. So there's always something within us that just kind of nags at you off and
on. It's just like, there's something more in here when you tap into it, you know, and we just,
and it's just until you really stop and just pause for a moment and start connecting with what is
that that's going on inside you, because we never stop. We're we're we live in such a busy time,
busyness all the time that we forget that we need to stop and pause because there's something deep
within and that can't come out if we allow all the busyness because that is more that silent
silent peace that is deep within. And I think that's basically what it is, is that peace, isn't it?
Yeah, and I think without us actually knowing it, we suppress a lot of that. We question ourselves,
we listen to the voice in our head, you know, how do we speak to ourselves? How do we treat
ourselves? How do we think other people treat us? What do we think? There's so many thoughts that
you process every single day. And if if you're not guided in how you process those, and how you
respond rather than react to things, maybe that you don't want or you don't want to experience,
and that that connection and that understanding, yeah, has a physical output in your life,
you know, that creates the environment around you. Yeah. And I don't believe we I don't believe
the majority of people understand that they believe that that is just the way life is. Yeah.
And they've no control over it. It's such so and and I'll have to admit I was that person,
I was that person for the longest time because it was just like, okay, just get over it. Isn't
that what the saying is, you know, just get over it. You'll be all right. But that's not true,
because you never get over it. So why why what does it mean, you know, instead of getting over it,
what does that mean to compete against ourselves? How does that how does that affect who we are?
And how we how we act, you know, why is why is this mindset so powerful in that personal growth?
Because you're telling yourself a story, and I believe and I've learned that that story has been
created over a very long period of time. It's about experiences that you've had with other people.
It's about family members, how you've grown up, the environment that you've been within.
Little comments, even that people have said to you, and what you're likely to tend to lean towards,
and it's something, oh, it's always stuck in my mind. If nine people tell you you're doing an amazing
job and one person says to you, yeah, that that was okay. My mind would have always been on that
one. I need to change that one person's mind. What am I doing wrong? Why am I not good enough?
Why have I not done enough to tell 10 people that I've done a great job? And that is you're
competing with yourself. You're not in any competition with anyone. You know, there is no
one around you or outside of you that you need to think that you need to compete with.
The only thing you need to think about is how do you compete within yourself? You know, how do you
grow your mindset? How do you gain an understanding of how your mind works? How can you build those
beautiful feelings? What voice are you listening to in your mind? And I learned through a lot of
reflection over the last few years, a lot of the beliefs that I held about myself and then
created my physical environment from were from comments that I've heard from other people that
were totally unjustified, that I thought people knew he didn't like me or didn't want to spend time
with me. And that was never the issue or the problem. It's only when I started to develop
myself and how I think about myself. Do I love myself? You know, what do I tell myself? Do I
tell myself I am successful? I am worthy. I am beautiful. I am filled with love. That was not
conversation that was going on in my mind. So it totally explained the results that I was getting in
my life. And like you, I had got to a point where I had decided this can't be it. You know, this cannot
be as good as it gets. It has to be better. There has to be something else out there that I'm ready
for that I, there was a yearning, but I couldn't explain it because I didn't have, I was on a
wire, you know, I didn't, I couldn't explain the mind. And then obviously through guided learning
and the support network that I had, I came to learn and understand what that was. But more
importantly, I had the toolbox to deal with the past, let go and move on and create a new, beautiful
future. And it's not just about the business and you know, and having a successful business. I love
it. But I have fantastic relationships. You know, I have great people around me that support me. And
I think that network of friends or that network of people that you spend time with are critical in
that process. Yeah, I agree with that totally because I, I know that there are a lot of people that
I've had to perhaps distance myself from more so because I found that if I, because I found that
perhaps they were competing with themselves and then their, their behavior, their way of talking
and stuff was then bouncing off of me like something's wrong with me because I'm not doing that, right?
And so you're like, what does this mean? But you know, if we would just focus on our progress that we do get
and just make an improvement, just a tiny improvement every day, you'll find that you're not, you won't
compete with yourself as much as if you just try to improve just one thing, improve that from whatever
you did yesterday, make one little step, those little progressive steps. And perhaps that will
defeat that competing stuff that we constantly just, we get caught up in. We were, again,
we allow that outside world to dictate what it is, how we're going to be, how we're supposed to look,
all of those things. And so if we would just stop for a moment and just think, you know, I always talk
to my clients, I says, just think about the words that are coming out of your mouth. Think about
what it is you're thinking about. You know, why do you feel like you need to do this? Or why is this
when, when people are start, when we ask the question as to why most people don't have an answer for us,
they're just, they're just there and they're autopilot nearly. It's people,
people have forgotten how to think. I think they listen too much and see too much and hear too much
about what's going on around them and allow that to guide their thoughts so that they don't have to
think. And it's exactly what you're saying. You tell your clients, Susan, stop and question yourself.
Why are you competing with yourself? Yeah. Why are you telling yourself these things?
Yeah. And that it's, it amazed me. I was watching a Bob Proctor just video, you know,
I watch them all the time. But the comment came up and the more I think about it, it's very interesting
that society is like they have a pacifier in their mouth. They're just being, they're living
outside. They're not thinking they have something that just satisfies what's taking care of them on
the outside or this superficial because that's what most people live is that superficial life.
And it is a pacifier. And so therefore, everything around you is dictating who you are, what you're
going to be, how long you're going to be able to do that. And, you know, I said there and I thought,
oh my gosh, that's so sad to, that just saddens my heart to think that, and, and I guess the other
thing that saddens me is I was one of those people. Me too. Yeah. And I totally agree with what you're
saying. And I think people are afraid to question themselves because it makes them uncomfortable.
It really does. And I'm not saying I'm perfect. And I don't have not so good days, but there's a lot
more better days than there are bad days. And it's something I always stand by. I feel that I now
live life with my eyes wide open because you're talking about people just existing,
just drifting through life, not really paying much attention to their own thoughts. You know,
they're being guided by the environment around them. I can honestly say, from the moment I wake up,
I genuinely have my eyes wide open. But at the same time, I'm in absolute control about what I
tell myself and how I speak to myself and how I treat myself, what love I show myself, all of those
beautiful things that empower females that allow them to take control of the person that they are
and experience all of that in the environment around them. See, in it, what you had said,
what you had said something that you know, you're not perfect and all this, that is true. None of
us are. But that's what we strive for. However, I think sometimes people get caught up and think,
oh, what makes you think you're so much better or whatever. And these negative thoughts start
coming in when somebody is telling you or having a conversation with you about these are things
that we can do to help you to release this. But they get caught on just certain words. And they
hang on to those words and it's like, they don't hear anything else you say. And it amazes me because
I used to be one of these people and my friends out there listening to us, to the audience, I want
you to know that Claire and I have gone through these things. So whatever we say, these are things
that we've experienced. So it's not just like we're out here telling people what to do. It is what we
have learned that life is you make it. You make the decision. You have the power within you to change
any part of your life you want. And I don't think we understand that. We don't understand it because
we're never taught that. But we have that power. And until you have people like Claire and I coming
out here and saying, you have the power to do that, you'll never know that. So when we talk about,
well, I'm not perfect, well, none of us are perfect. I think what is it, the saying that I have heard
is this, once you reach perfectionism, then there's another level that you need to reach for. So
you never reach it because it's constantly is raising that bar all the time.
Right. And some people will confuse perfection with happiness. That's not the same thing. It's
not the same thing. My perfection that I strive for is that next level of professionalism in my
role. The next exciting shift in my life. You know, that next goal that I've set myself. Yeah.
Am I happy? Absolutely. And I'm happy even when I fail because where's the fun and continuous
success you learn from the failures. You actually learn the most from those failures. You only fail
whenever you stop pursuing those goals. So to me, perfection in my mind is my next level, my next
tier, you know, how am I going to make today better than it was yesterday? You know, how am I going
to take my goals and grow them beyond even my own dreams? And honestly, when Susan's telling you,
we've learned this, I have learned this in the last few months. I mean, I am building a dream home
that I never in a million years would have thought that I would be buying this year. And we just very
casually extended the back of it and didn't give it a second thought because I'm thinking from the
person I'm going to be, you know, in seven or eight months time, what I really want. Why could I not
have it? Because I'm worthy. I love me. I am successful. And I have a good mental mindset
around that. So it affects you're just it affects so many different things. So many decisions. You're
like the smallest decisions. And even your sense is making one small change and have such an
incredible impact on your life with consistency, you know, with support from you and in that kind
of group or a network of people that are like minded and learning and going through that growth
process at the same time. Yeah, just the thing that I don't that I learned was it's constant. It's not
just okay, you do this for six months and you are good to go. You know, I've learned that growing,
maturing in who I am as a person, understanding my purpose and know that that person purpose
expands constantly because that's what we are for expansion and greater and fuller expression.
And the more you learn about you, the more it just keeps growing. It's like you said, you know,
you never dreamed you were going to be this and now in seven, eight months, you're going to be this
and in seven, eight months after that, you're going to be this and after that, it this it never stops.
We were made to expand. We were made to express and experience all these things. We just never
were taught what it was. And you know, and so what do you think because we're not taught that what
are some of those battles that women faced? Do you think when it comes to that self image in
that mindset around who they are? I think they compare themselves a lot to other women, which
means that they they think they're in competition with others. So they'll compare and you've talked
a lot already about this, their physical appearance, you know, are they beautiful? Are they beautiful
enough? So are they starting to age? You know, all those conversations you have in your mind.
And I learned through this three years ago now, a lot of my internal conversation about me not being
good enough, actually stem back to conversations I've had with other people in my early years,
in my teens. And it's so crazy, the impact that it has on your life. I'll give you a perfect example.
And this was before I came into understanding about my mindset and how to change my mind.
How to change my self image. I was studying for my master's level in human resources management.
And from the outset told myself, because I had studied at level three, I'd been out of university
for a very long time. And this was level seven. So this, in my mind, I told myself was a massive job.
And oh, my goodness, it was going to be so difficult. And was I intelligent enough? And
the first exam that I saw I failed. And that had a huge impact on my life. It actually took me an
extra three years to complete that three years of my life. Because I listened to the voice inside
of me saying, you're not smart enough to do this. You're not intelligent enough to complete this.
Because I had one failure. I look back at that now. And honestly, I, it saddens me for the person
that I was then. I think about the time that I wasted, you know, and all I had to do was, you know,
have that internal conversation that was different. Yeah. Everybody learns from failures and mistakes.
You only fail when you stop pushing on. And if I had to just push on at that point, I could have
been finished three years earlier. I think a lot of the internal conversations are things we've picked
up along the way from society. Society telling us we have to dress a certain way, behave a certain
way, look a certain way. And we internalize that without actually realizing. I mean, how many people
aimlessly scroll through social media, the amount of content that your subconscious brain is actually
taking in is scary. I know, because my husband still does it. And he comes off with random facts
sometimes. And I think, what have you been watching? You know, I'd much rather build my mind or have
conversations with people who are aware of mindset, who actively practice this and know how to catch
themselves out, maybe with some of those internal battles. Yeah. And you brought up a very good point
that I want to make sure the audience hears. When Claire was talking about her education
and how she missed those three years, one thing that I've learned with our mindset, and I know
Claire knows this too, is we think that we miss so much in life because of that. Because for me,
my husband always says, I ran away from home when I was 20. I never saw it that way. I had a
job and it was only a thousand miles away from where I live. So to me, that wasn't running away,
but he always says I ran away from home. But, you know, and then I had all these different careers
and I think, why did I waste all of that time? But you and I both know we didn't waste that time.
It took us that long to mature, to grow to where we are today, because we need to go through
all of this craziness that we've gone through. And that's the same way with the audience. You may
be going through some stuff and you're saying, that is way out there. I don't have time for this.
You know, I've got my own bridges to burn or I've got this much stuff. I'm in school. I'm learning
all this. But what Claire and I have learned is this. It doesn't matter what's going on outside of
you, because everything that is important lies within you. And that is where people get messed up
or people don't understand that. Because you're never taught. Because like you, I mean, you get
the degrees, you know, I've been in the medical field. I've been in the fitness world. I've done
the real estate industry. And I did all these things. But none of it ever taught me to really
think about what do you want? What is it that you're seeking? Because I may have only had three
careers in my life. But all that time, none of them showed me what I see today. Because what I
have today is far more advanced than any education that a school, a university, and whatever institutes
can ever give you. And it just makes us grow into the person that we really are. Once we start learning
who we are, that self image, that mindset starts shifting. And once you start seeing you for who
you are, I don't know about you, but that just is like, it gives you that wow. You know?
And nothing, nothing has changed on the outside. You know, you may still be going to the same job,
you know, have the same family, the same partner, but it's only inside that's different. And honestly,
the only way I can describe that is when you are happy with yourself, when you are fulfilled with
who you are and your true self, and you understand that, that radiates light. And you said, I mean,
we went to Marbella last year, we had the most incredible time away, studying, learning, and
creating beautiful friendships. But the people there just radiated life and love. And that is,
because they have learned to understand their mindset and how to understand and change their
self image, they're not changing it to please other people. They're not changing it because
they're trying to compete with someone and be like that person. Every person is so beautifully
unique in their own way. They decide to change that because they start to understand themselves,
and they understand how much their own self image and mindset impacts their life.
Yeah, you're not taught that. And I just, that's so beautiful, because I think once we learn
to remove ourselves from all this exterior negativity and take a moment just to learn
about who you are, because that, and that's another question. And I know you, you've asked this
question yourself, you know, what is it that you want? You know, when I was asked that question
by Bob years ago, I never, I never really took it. It was just like, okay, what kind of question is
this, right? Because I still had that, that mentality of the exterior around me, you know, like,
oh, what are people going to think about me if I say, oh, well, it's just like, oh, well, you
want that. Oh, really? Right? So I just, I never took it seriously. But now that I, I teach this,
I coach people on this, it's just like, that is what he meant when he asked that question.
What is it you want? Because I'd never been asked that. And I know thousands of people that we
talked to have never been asked that question. Yeah. So and when we, when we do that, I, I think it's
important for us to ask our clients, ask the audience just to take a moment and think about,
you know, if you could have whatever it is in your life, what is it you really want?
And one of the things that Bob came across, it was very interesting, was the majority of people
want freedom. Yeah. They want financial freedom. They want the freedom to be with their families.
They want freedom to make, you know, if they want to go on a trip, they can go on a trip.
They can do what they want. It's just freedom. And I, and I never thought about that, you know, but
that is something that we desire, isn't it? To be free where we can be, what is that saying,
be me, right? Be free to be. Yeah. And that, and it radiates into so many areas in your life. And
one of the things I realized whenever I was presented with that question was I did not know,
because my life was being dictated by my job. And by what I thought I needed to do is my next step,
because that was the logical step that normal successful people were doing, staying in a permanent
job and just continuing on that trajectory until their employer gives them an opportunity, or they
had a magical idea to go to another employer. Yeah. And at that point, that's when that freedom
concept started to become real for me. What if I was in control of my own decisions? When I work,
who I work for, when I take time off, what I do in my time off, who I spend my time with,
why I spend time with myself. And all of, all of the work that I've done and all of the learning
that I've had around mindset has helped me with that. Yeah. Claire, that's beautiful. And that,
that, that wasn't something you thought of a year or so ago, probably. It was just something that's
that is eventually, it is just like, that's what this is about. That's what I need to do.
That's what that means. That's how I'm supposed to feel. Because we don't ever get there. We never
get there. And I just, I'm just like, wow, you know, because one of the things too that, that I
like to talk about is when we start removing the hats, the labels and stuff like that, you know,
you're not the mom, you're not the wife, you're not the friends, you're not all of these, who are you?
What is it you want? Because like you said, you never, you don't think about things like that.
And a lot of people, if you ask them that question, we'll say, I want happiness.
Yeah. And that they think that's their answer. But what does happiness look like for you? I would
say to your listeners, really think about that. What is your perfect day? What does that look like?
Who are the people you surround yourself with? What do you spend your time doing in a day? How do
you spend time with your children or your family or your partner? You know, how do you spend time
with yourself? And you're thinking, you're talking there about goals and what do you really want?
Yeah. Honestly. And even if your listeners come back and listen to this in six months time,
dream big because you can make your dreams a reality. And I am not saying that lightly because
you've experienced it, Susan. I mean, I am a product of that success as well. I'm still learning.
You know, I continue to learn and work on me every day. And I'll do that for the rest of my life.
Yeah. For a few reasons because I enjoy it. I actually enjoy being comfortable being me.
And because I have desires and dreams and goals and I want to achieve them. And I know I'm capable
of them. So being coached by you and in that community of like-minded people really is such
an amazing support network that can help people to understand all of this. Yeah. That's beautiful
because that's exactly what it's all about. Because I think people are sometimes, and this is,
I can speak because I've felt this way, you're almost afraid. You're almost afraid of,
ooh, what does that really look like? Am I really ready for that? Right? Because we don't identify
with the positive. We don't identify with that beautiful, powerful, inspiring, talented,
magnificent, perfect person that we really are. We don't have a clue what that person really looks
like. That self-image. And the other part of that is that attitude that we bring along with that.
Because that attitude, if it's not in the right place, we can do all the exterior work.
Right? We can do all of that. But if we don't, yeah, but it's that change. You want to speak
anything about the attitude and how that attitude can affect that self-image. And do you have
any kind of stories on how that may have happened or taken place with you?
Yeah, it's a big thing. And in the beginning, my attitude was stinking. Something we say in
Northern Ireland. It's stinking. Really, per. But it's because I didn't know I wanted to blame
outside circumstances for a lot of the results in my life. And honestly, it was because of my
attitude. Attitude that was built on unfinded beliefs that were very, very weak. That I had
drummed up in my own mind. Because let's be honest, you talk to yourself every day. Yes. You stop
consciously taking things that are happening around you and you form an assumption or an opinion
about something or an opinion about someone else's opinion or whatever it might be. So
my attitude was not good. And through learning about mindset and how the mind works, I started
to realise, and that's, it can be hard to swallow, that you are responsible for a lot of what shows
up in your life. I realised that my attitude was not aligned with who I really was and who I actually
wanted to express. So, yeah, I had to change the way I thought about myself. I had to change how I
felt about myself. I had to do a lot of forgiveness for me and forgive myself for a lot of the things
in the past that maybe I'd done or not done and move on from that. Do you know, it's almost like
you shed an old skin. It's very, very hard to describe. You do shed, and it's uncomfortable,
but you do shed the older version of you that doesn't serve you anymore, because you learn to realise,
okay, well, if these are the goals I want to set and these are the things I want to achieve, what
kind of person do I want to be in that role, you know, in that image that you're building of your
future, and that takes a lot, it does take work, and it can be difficult. You may need to go through
things that have happened in your past, not to poke at them or resurrect them, but to move on and let
go. And I think a lot of us, and it's just, again, society, a lot of us have learnt that
to earn forgiveness, there must be retribution for something, or, I mean, and there's certain
things that have happened to me at a younger age that I did struggle to let go of, but I learnt
that that was impacting my attitude. And I didn't need retribution or anapology or anything for what
had happened in the past, the past, the past, there is nothing, you can change about it. You are in
absolute control of your present moment and your future. And that, that was huge for me, that was
a big, big eye opener. And I talk about wanting to life with your eyes wide open, that was massive,
and that shifted me immensely to a point where I felt the shift, and I still feel shifts,
you know, gradually every day, but that was, it's almost like something pushed me, pushed me forward
and allowed me to let go. And I think when you start to align how you think, how you feel, and
then how you actually act, how you talk to other people, the love that you give people, how you
treat people, all of those things start to come together and formulate a new attitude that really
does reflect your true self. Yeah, that's beautiful, very well said. Because if, as the audience heard
that, there were so many things in that, that you shared and letting go and letting in. Yeah.
You know, just learn to break through whatever it is that has been holding you back. I think that
is probably one of the, I won't say toughest, because that is not what it is, it's not tough.
It is to make a decision and to move on that decision you made. Yeah. Because when we use
certain words, I think it's so important for us to know that certain words play a major role in
how we respond to things. So, you know, and that when you were saying that, I'm like,
that is so beautiful because the attitude about all of that, who you were, no longer serves you.
Yeah. We hang on and it's time to let it go. Claire, that, that.
No, and honestly, if you're listening to even think about the people in their lives or the
people they've come across, I know people who find it really difficult to forgive, like really
difficult to forgive. Yeah. And I see the results in their life. I see generally high unhappy they are.
Yeah. And if only they could just learn to forgive and move on and let go, it allows that kind of
love to come back into their life. It's, yeah, I mean, you can't hold those two emotions at the
same time. If you want to be you, you have to move on. You cannot live in the past. And this again
is something that we pick up from society. We ruminate over decisions or things that we've done
in the past. It's gone. Yeah. You're in the opposite control of not.
Of it. Yep. I did. It's just like the title of this podcast, you versus you. Yeah. Yeah. It's,
you know, you only are competing against yourself and everything else out there. It's not really
a competition, right? It's not a competition, my friends. So don't ever think you're competing.
It's just a matter of changing up the way you think about yourself, the way you
talk about yourself, the way that you treat yourself. It's all in the words that you're using.
Yeah. And so choose your words wisely. And that's why together and in this group, my friends, just
I want you to feel comfortable enough that you come in and you understand that there's no judgments
here. And there's nothing wrong with what goes on with you. What it is is you, it's a learning process.
And we don't learn unless we can start talking about it and getting it out of us so that we can
allow the good to come within us. Because as long as you have all that negativity, all that bad
blood and that unforgiveness within you, you can't bring in the good. So it's like a cleansing thing,
isn't it? It really is. And I'm sure you've got some technique. So it's so good. So soul refreshing,
I think. I think that's the only way to describe it. When you do, you do those exercises. And,
you know, you may get emotional, there may be things you need to process and think about. But
my goodness, on the other side of that is just beauty. And I would say like that is such a good
thing to do. Yeah. And I love that because when we start, and my friends, this is the thing too,
Claire and I are constantly mentored. So it's one of those things, it's not something that you just
do once and you've got it. We are constantly because Claire and I both, we have a tendency,
we fall back, we're not perfect, you know? And we fall back, but it's always good to have somebody
out there saying, I understand or I hear what you're saying, but let's look at it a different way.
Challenging. Yes. And I love that challenge. I love to be challenged. Yeah. I love it. Well,
Claire, is there anything else that you would like the audience to know about what you thought about
the podcast? What are some closing things that maybe you want the audience to know about you
versus you, about competing with you? Yeah, I would say I am a product of the success. You are too,
too. Everybody can be. And this is not just about me being a successful entrepreneur or, you know,
being into control of my own business now. I have a beautiful life. I am very happy. I'm very happy
with the results that I'm creating. I love me and I'm not ashamed to say that. I have wonderful
relationships with the people that I surround myself with and I choose who I surround myself with now.
That's not dictated to me. And all of that has stemmed from me stopping competing with myself.
Yeah. I stopped listening to the voice that was in my head. And one final thing I would say to
your listeners is know that you are enough. You are good enough. This is not just something for
oh, she'll be successful at it because she's such and such or she's already quite successful. So
it'll work for her. It works for everyone or you want it to. So I would say do not let that stop you.
This is powerful and it's such a beautiful change in yourself. And honestly, your life is amazing
when you do make that shift. Yeah, that's beautiful Claire. That is so true. And I think
what you had said there is so important that this is for everybody. It doesn't matter where you live.
It doesn't matter what you look like. It doesn't matter your age. It doesn't matter if you're
tall or short or thin or what it doesn't matter. Yeah, it's all about your thinking.
And all about because once you start changing that everything around you changes.
And you see life in the brightness that it's meant to be in, not the darkness.
