299 - How Healing Trauma Will Grow Your Sales with Amy Van Slambrook

The first time I did inner child work I thought it was going to be a bunch of hooey. Then I did it and realized how much I was limiting myself with old belief patterns and thoughts I’d picked up over the years, and how much those old patterns had been influencing my business and financial results. As I’ve healed trauma and done the inner work, it’s been such a catalyst for the growth I’ve experienced that I now have all of my clients do it, and many of them have the same initial skepticism that transforms once they go through the process.  My guest today is an expert in healing lifelong traumas and transforming your pain into your power. Amy Van Slambrook is leading the field in this space. She’s a Coach and Psychotherapist for entrepreneurial women and couples, a top 200 Christian Influencer, and has trained personally with experts like Dr. Daniel Amen to bring cutting edge coaching and healing solutions to high achieving entrepreneurs.   I’m so excited to bring you my guest and this conversation today about how inner healing will transform your business results.    Show Notes: [3:04] - The first time Amy did inner child healing work, she was skeptical. [4:54] - Amy shares the beginning of her healing journey and how connected she became with her faith. [6:30] - She learned that all of her issues were rooted in trauma, including relationships, her career, and her health. [7:43] - There is always relativity, but we have to embrace the fact that yes, your trauma is traumatic. Don’t compare your pain to that of others. [8:56] - We may remember one trauma, but other memories are foggier. [10:10] - Inner child work was the hardest work Amy ever did, but working for 15 years on it, she was able to come home to herself. [11:27] - Somewhere along the way, a lot of women pick up the idea that they are too much. [12:14] - What are secondary traumas? [14:22] - The conflicting feelings of being too much and not enough at the same time make a constant debate in yourself. [17:11] - The constant self-evaluation is a form of disassociation. [19:55] - We see this in our business when we set poor boundaries. [20:53] - One of the messages trauma gives us is that we are sacrificial. [22:10] - The equation is never finished. Success doesn’t come from an equation. [23:50] - You may have the fear of beginning this healing work as the work never really ends. You can run a business and do this work simultaneously. [25:33] - Amy shares what many of the people she works with say during this inner child work. [26:26] - Almost immediately, you will see results in your business.   Connect with Amy: Website  |  Instagram  |  LinkedIn Elevated Podcast with Amy Van Slambrook   Links and Resources: Instagram  |  LinkedIn  |  YouTube She Sells with Elyse Archer Home Page Abundance Mini Course Join the $10K Club Apply for the $50K Club Mastermind
