Your Connection Charisma Style is
The Helper
Dear Helper,
You’ve just discovered that your dominant Connection Charisma Style is that of the Helper.
At this point, maybe you’re surprised, or maybe you’re not.
Either way, all I ask is that you approach this report with an open mind and take the time to allow the ideas to sink in because it holds a lot of precious insights for you.
When I started out in business, whether it was marketing and promotion to selling and dealing with money, all of these business-related activities felt really uncomfortable and unnatural because I thought I had to be someone I wasn't.
That stress caused me to feel disconnected and act in a way that not only didn’t feel good to me, but often didn’t ‘land’ the way I had hoped with others, which caused me to turn away clients and income and dislike marketing and business even more!
Over time I discovered that those tendencies that worked against me when I was under stress, were actually unique and special qualities that my clients loved and valued about me when I was in a relaxed state.
When I finally allowed myself to be natural, my unique way of connecting actually started supporting my business!
This report is about giving yourself permission to be who you are.
I used to think that to be good at business, I had to be some "business-y" version of myself. Now I know, being myself is all I would ever need to be.
And that’s what I hope you’ll discover here: a recognition of what your ideal clients love about you reflected back.
To have the permission to feel comfortable in your own skin at all times in your business, so that more and more, the way you show up can be a joyous celebration of your purpose and free in its expression, perfectly suited for the clients you were meant to serve.

About your report...
Before we get into the nitty-gritty…
This guide celebrates the unique way you most strongly connect with your audience and your business, which is in itself a reflection of your gifts, and the default way you resort to relating with others and your business when you feel stressed or afraid, which creates challenges and blindspots.
Your Connection Charisma style as assessed through this quiz, is a persona that you strongly identify with at this time.
You’ll also discover tools that will support you to shine as the Helper and allow your natural gifts to blossom so that you can experience the freedom of being yourself and the satisfaction of enjoying every aspect of your business, by being YOU.
After years of working with clients, I've arrived at my own understanding of these types through the lens of business and entrepreneurship. There may be parts that resonate with you and parts that don't. Take what resonates and seek to recognize those qualities within you.
The most important thing is that I hope you take from this profile, is the ability to show up in your business and business relationships with new levels of self-acceptance, naturalness and freedom, so that you can shine brighter and ultimately serve more of those people out there who are waiting for you!

Your Unique Gifts & Your Business
You're grounded, strong, stable, embodied: Your very presence helps people become grounded and centered. You have a strong sense of identity that guides your interactions. You are very responsible, reliable and consistent.
You have a lot of stamina and endurance: you're not afraid of hard work and once you align with a decision, you're all-in!!
You're generous, thoughtful and considerate: You are the epitome of the spirit of service and selflessness. You are kind, patient, tolerant and diplomatic. You often take a step back to recognize the great qualities in others and allow them shine.
You're caring and compassionate: You can relate to all kinds of people, you connect with their humanity and focus on their goodness, which is such an altruistic quality.
You excel at bringing people together: You are gifted at creating harmony, appreciating diversity and different points of view. You are particularly gifted at facilitating groups: whether it be workshops, group coaching or masterminds. You can be a great mediator in situations where different, conflicting points of view may be presented -- you are the “glue” that brings everyone together on the same page.

Your Biggest Challenges…
All of your unique gifts are really GOOD things…until they aren't.
Here are the main ways that the Helper when under stress, can push away clients and income.
Overgiving:
Because you're so oriented towards selflessness and service, you often end up getting the short end of the stick! You have a tendency to want to give away too much of your time and energy without being recognized or compensated appropriately for it which leads to frustration, resentment and/or exhaustion.
Fear of Failure:
Although this is a universal experience, this fear is particularly notable for the Helper. It drives much of the actions that sabotage the results in your business. It can be expressed in many ways including:
Tending to ignore your own personal needs and priorities in favour of supporting someone else, which delays your own results and progress.
Stubbornly or defiantly avoiding your own plans or abandoning your plans in favour of others' priorities. This can make you feel stuck, cause you to dismiss or reject good ideas that would move your projects forward, or leave tasks unfinished.
Getting things done with a self-induced brute force or pushing through no matter how hard or exhausting it might be
Without sufficient evidence of progress, the doubts can lead to self-sabotage and half-hearted efforts which in turn provide evidence of failure that cause you to feel defeated, helpless, apathetic or even give up completely.
Self-neglect:
When it comes to your needs, you become the antithesis of the kindness of generosity you show to others! Your needs tend to come last if at all, and leaving them unfulfilled shuts down your heart and access to self-love which can result in feeling unsure about what to do next.

Mantras
I celebrate every action I take and acknowledge every step of the journey.
In any situation, I alone have the ability to find the perfect solution.
I deserve to have my needs met, and I am at my best when I make them a priority.
My value is irrespective of the recognition and approval of others.
My mistakes and failures are my greatest teachers and I grow from their gifts.
I fulfill my journey for the glory of its unfolding, for no one but myself
Mudra: Prayer mudra
Mudras are an ancient technique, a sort of "hand yoga" that bypasses the mind and directs the movement of energy through the body/mind in a particular way. Ganesha, in Vedic mythology, is the Elephant God who represents the removal of obstacles.
As a meditation, using Ujjayi breath (CLICK HERE to learn Ujjayi Breath) or using long deep breaths, sit for a few minutes with your hands in Ganesh Mudra to overcome obstacles, raise energy levels, enhance self-assurance and self-confidence.
Start with the left hand over the chest, and once the hands are clasped together as pictured, you want to actively pull your elbows apart with a steady effort, for 3 deep breaths, then relax. You can repeat this 3-6 times and then reverse the hand positions, repeating with the right hand over the chest.
**Be careful not to hold the breath, or strain your next or shoulders while using this mudra. Steady effort with relaxation is the key.**
Quickstart Guide
Make your own personal wellbeing and your own business projects a priority.
Identify areas in your business where you are putting a lot of energy out and not getting a lot back in return. Consider re-evaluating your business model or pricing so that you are adequately compensated.
Create connection and rapport with your ideal clients by showing your genuine care for them and recognition of their gifts, while holding solid boundaries around your time and energy. Your clients will see you more as a leader and authority and not a push-over.
You shine in group formats: workshops, group coaching, masterminds...bring people together to connect with you as well as with each other. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
