On her journey to becoming an entrepreneur. (7:00)
Cara discusses her journey from hustling and working 4 or 5 jobs at a time to stepping into the role of entrepreneur. Throughout her 20s, she worked many different jobs while trying to figure out what her calling is. All timing is divine timing — and Cara came into her core mission at exactly the right time in her life.
For the first 2 years of her business, she kept hustling under the belief that work needs to be hard and success takes years. She kept having side hustles until June 2020, when she decided to give up her side hustles so that she could fully focus on her business.
On how opening herself up for service allowed her business to thrive. (9:00)
When the pandemic hit, Cara began offering free daily readings to people on Instagram live. This decision to make her gifts available to others, and to be of service in a crisis, her audience grew expansively and that enabled her to have the current business success that she has today.
“Give yourself the grace to allow your behaviors and patterns to shift when the world is in crisis.”
What advice do you have for people just starting out? (49:30)
If you feel really called to be of service or create something specific, trust that instinct. That’s the biggest piece of it. If you don’t have that yet, do your spiritual practice to communicate with your inner self and the divine to get clear on your core mission. And know that it has to happen organically. All timing is divine timing, and if you don’t feel like you have your core mission yet, it will come. But you have to work toward it.
And then, when you have your core mission, invest in outside support. Finding a coach that can help you is invaluable. If Cara had done that a year earlier, she believes she would have tripled her income from her first launch.
"Trust the divine timing that when you awaken to your core mission, that’s what you should be doing.”
On “supervision” and how she uses it in her work. (52:00)
Cara comes from a clinical background in psychology, where supervision is a requirement for getting certified. She has brought this mindset into her work as a healer and coach, where she makes sure that she is investing in coaching for herself so that she is always getting feedback and learning from a mentor.
“Invest in help. Invest in support. Invest in someone who can cut through your self-limiting beliefs, and knows what you need because they’ve done it before.”
