She feared people would not want what she had to offer or resonate with what she had to say. Subconsciously, she prevented herself from feeling the pain of this potential failure and rejection by not putting her work out into the world. She would not speak up. <strong>She held back.<\/strong><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>And she suffered. And she continued to be broke and stressed out.<\/p>\n<p>She would pray for guidance, and would hope and wish and dream. And then, she\u2019d get inspired again. She\u2019d start to get in action. Life seemed wonderful and full of possibility. She felt guided and clear.<\/p>\n<p>But once again, self-doubt and fear would enter her mind, and she\u2019d back off from her vision.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This pattern repeated again and again for years.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Eventually, she met a man and fell in love. He loved her so deeply and believed in the beauty of her visions. Because of this true love, he was able to see the sea of misery she was swimming in and point out this debilitating pattern to her.<\/p>\n<p>By this time, she had come to believe, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that <strong>the highest leverage thing she could do to support positive transformation in our world is to support women in unleashing the brilliance of their voices.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>She had begun speaking publicly in her community, and women were coming to her to find their own freedom to speak up and to receive her help in writing epic talks.<\/strong> KC had never known happiness like this. The level of joy, fulfillment and natural ease she felt in doing this was unlike anything she had ever known. And yet she felt held back in really going for it &#8212; in supporting women in the way and magnitude she felt called.<\/p>\n<p>And so, when her man suggested she make <strong>a true commitment to this work<\/strong>, and end the pattern of being held back by self-doubt and fear, she was ready. She was clear:<em>\u00a0Yes, this is the work I am meant to do. This is the message I am meant to share.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>One afternoon, overlooking the San Francisco Bay, KC &amp; her man held a commitment ceremony for her mission. She committed to supporting women in getting their messages out into the world, full out, for the next 12 months of her life: no matter what. No matter the fear that might arise. No matter the self-doubt that might creep in.<\/p>\n<p>And then\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>Magic happened.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Soon, she was receiving many speaking opportunities to share about her work and her philosophy behind it. Soon, word spread of her work <strong>supporting women in getting totally clear on their messages<\/strong> and finding the freedom to stand up and share them.<\/p>\n<p>She was asked to speak at two TEDx events. TED, TEDx &amp; American Heart Association speakers hired her to help them prepare their talks and deliver them with authentic confidence &amp; grace.<\/p>\n<p>Women @ Microsoft asked her to come speak.<\/p>\n<p>She traveled to the Middle East to support women from all around the region in finding the freedom to speak up.<\/p>\n<p>Her own<strong> School for The Well Spoken Woman LIVE events in SF &amp; NYC <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><em>sold out<\/em> <\/span><\/strong>as women flocked to come hear the graduates\u2019 extraordinary talks.<\/p>\n<p>She was no longer broke. She was no longer suffering from the affliction of feeling \u201cheld back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Why?\u00a0 <strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Commitment had set her free.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I share this story with you today because I want you to be completely free from any shackles of fear &amp; self doubt.
