Itâs common for entrepreneurs to have these brilliant ideas in their minds, but they back down when it comes to putting them into action. Sometimes, they make a huge leap, but the momentum fades over time. So, what happens? Most of the time, itâs just a matter of self-doubt. Their limiting beliefs always defeat their goals to succeed. Limitations are everywhere; theyâre inevitable. But we can always conquer them.
In todayâs inspiring episode, we have the multi-millionaire Latina Coach with a signature trademark system, âThe Magnetize & Monetize MastermindÂź â, Juliana Garcia, to share how she overcame her limitations after being diagnosed with a life-altering medical condition at a young age, proving physical roadblocks is not an excuse to live a small, safe life and that itâs not a hindrance to becoming a big success story in her own space.

Juliana Garcia was born and raised in Columbia. She left home at the age of 17 to move to Australia in pursuit of a bigger life. She was diagnosed with Scoliosis at a young age that threatened to bring everything to a halt. Instead of contemplating this physical challenge, she showed up for life, risked it all, and moved to the USA to create her fortune. She decided to make her own name in the coaching space and proved the notion that 'coaches don't make money, is wrong. She now runs her $2.5 million empire that she built within three short years, helping other coaches become massively wealthy using her signature trademark system, "The Magnetize and Monetize Method".

Mentorship is an essential facet of success. Seek the support of someone whose proficiency and expertise you admire. Focus on personal development before professional development. Donât prioritize yourself last and expect to ascend in your business. Build habits in all aspects of your life which support success, health and emotional wealth. Brendonâs book, High Performance Habits, breaks down the patterns and psychology of prosperous, high-achievers and how you can change your habits to become a mogul too. Success should not create an expectation of people to be just like you. Instead, choose friends wisely based on character traits and inspire you even if they donât totally understand you. Donât lose your honor while you work toward your businessâ victories. -

Your key takeaways from this episode are:
Donât confuse posturing with positioning. Posturing is artificial and meant to impress, rather than delivering the true essence of yourself and what you stand for. Positioning is being strategic with your messageâs delivery and standing for what you believe in. Also, it prepares you to attract your ideal clients naturally and therefore, positioning creates alignment. Positioning doesnât make you elitist, exclusive, or unlikeable, so donât be scared to claim your space. Many women are afraid to make bold, provocative statements but you shouldnât be scared to state your opinion. It may feel like you are sabotaging yourself, but your bravery will get you noticed. You should care less about âlikesâ and more about impact. Donât focus more on social media than necessary. In-person networking, events, and genuine business relationships are just as important and often skipped or dismissed.Want to learn more?
