The Ass Kicking You Need

Erika Cramer
About this episode

Last week my son Navah turned 4! I wanted to share this moment with you because I’ve been reflecting back on the years since his birth. A LOT has changed. 

People see the success of where I am now but I want to tell you what life was like for me back then.

Three and a half years ago we were broke. 

When I say broke, I mean absolutely BROKE! 

My husband’s gym business struggled through Christmas every year and we were scrounging for coins in the car to buy bread. 

Fast forward to now, a whopping five thousand women have come through our programs from 45 countries. The podcast has almost 1.3 million downloads (and mind you, I started recording every episode from my car)

So what happened in between? I realised my own truth and power. 

In my heart I knew I was not here to mess around, to be miserable in my workplace, to play small or to have a mediocre life. When I truly realised this, everything changed. 

I started my own coaching business and worked my ass off to build it up to where it is now. 

Sometimes you have to be pushed to the absolute edge before you wake up and do something. 

I’m not saying I don’t still have self doubt and fear. Of course I do! I just don’t let it run my life or hold me back. 

So on this celebration day, I’m honouring my own journey since my son’s birth and the amazing life and business we have built. 

And I wanted to remind YOU of your true power, just in case you momentarily forgot.
