I was triggered (money shame)

Sdfsdf, recently I was triggered by a random reminding of something that happened in my business years ago. In short, I'd worked with a client for multiple years supporting her to build her business from close to nothing to over 6-figures. Then one day she reacted to a tuition change by deciding to no longer mentor with me (while trying to money shame me), took one of my key teachings and turned it into a product she sold for profit along with poaching a good number of my clients.

At the time - ouch. And to this day - gross. Yet, I learned a lot from that situation: I doubled down on my own inner self worth work and in the years since have been a consistent steward of a 7-figure mission while also maintaining a lifestyle that supports my highly sensitive needs and mentoring other Highly Sensitive Entrepreneurs and Leaders to do their version of the same I set up external systems to protect my Business Miracles community so members feel safe to "be a student" without worry or pressure to another member's unasked for solicitation I enhanced my team to be ambassadors of my intellectual property, including legal who are always standing by ready to take action on my behalf when needed So, why then was I recently triggered by this random reminding? This is the exact question I took to self-inquiry using the exact tools I teach. What I uncovered was so interesting. Though (in addition to the actions above) I had engaged in a deep forgiveness practice of this former client I had not acknowledged the true inappropriateness of my former client's behavior. It was as if to get to the forgiveness I had missed the importance of not falling prey to the socialized belief that any type of justification would make this way of behaving even close to ok. Not - "well, that's just business". Not - "oh, you know how the coaching industry is". Not - "the internet is a Wild West". And definitely not - "she paid for the program"(You don't buy a book, decide you like it and get to put your name on the cover and bank the sales). Through this realization another layer peeled back freeing me even more than I'd already previously experienced. Why do I share this with you, Sdfsdf? Because I hear from Highly Sensitive Entrepreneurs all the time who hold back from putting themselves out there or going to the next level of their business growth due to fear of their worth being challenged, their ideas/work being stolen and not being able to handle any of it as a result of nervous system overwhelm. Yet if you hold back because of past trauma that hasn't been dealt with, everyone loses. Others don't experience your gifts and you don't receive the opportunity for accelerated growth and learning (income and impact). As for "being able to handle it" - there are tools, teachings and trainings for that. It's a skill that's learnable for those of us who are meant to use our highly sensitive strengths to lead - ourselves and others.
