The Fluent Self - When you need some destuckification.

Hire my duck!

Libby’s Situation

Extra “umph!” (in a good way)

This work is the extra “umph!” I need for sure. That’s not an “umph” kick in the ass either.

That’s one of those upward arm movement “umphs”, usually followed by “Yeah, baby” or something equally profound.

I madly love all your material especially the latest. As usual, you do the perfect job of distilling some seriously complex, potentially new-agey material into super accessible, sensible info.

Thank you again for everything, mainly being you. You know being all cool, creatively expressive, out there inspiring people to be their best selves and stuff. Contacting you was one of those shining, pivotal moments in my life.

Okay. Options, rates and all that.

Selma the duckDestuckification: working on the stuff that’s really keeping you from moving forward, calming you the heck down and dissolving some of the stucknesses.

(Some people call this coaching which would make me and my duck coaches. Let’s just say we’re armed with some especially potent wacky wonder-dust.)

Biggification: the art and science of promoting the wonderful thing you have to give to the world. What to do, how to do it, how to feel okay about it (and maybe even get EXCITED about it!)

(Some people call this marketing which would make me and my duck marketing consultants. We prefer to think of ourselves as mindful biggifiers.)

Right. So you want to be able to get destuckified so you can biggify yourself and the cool thing you do in a conscious, mindful way without feeling icky about it …

Which means you really want to spend some quality time with my duck.

And me. And my big, fat brain. And our genius techniques.

We bring the insights, intuitive abilities and the magic. You bring the stuck. It works. It’s also usually kinda fun.

Stuff you should know:

I will never impose an ideology on you.
A lot of coach-ey type people want you to adopt their personal belief system. They want you to accept the Law of Attraction or to constantly “challenge your comfort zones” so you can “fake it til you make it.” BLECH.

I’m a partner, not a cheerleader.
Yes, I am thrilled when things are going great for you and may even do a little dance. And I’ll talk you down if you’re “having a moment”. But no you-can-do-it motivational fluff.

I will always meet you where you are.
It’s not about you learning a system; it’s about adapting the system to the way you learn. We won’t make you do uncomfortable stuff, and if anxiety comes up, we’ll help you out of it before we do anything else.

Hiring us for one-on-one one-on-duck work:

PREREQUISITES:
You need to own the Procrastination Dissolve-o-Matic. You’ll get more out of this if you’re already familiar with some of the basic concepts that inform our work. There will also be an application process.

You also need to own a copy of Marshall Rosenberg’s book “Nonviolent Communication.” It is full of cheesiness and some especially bad poetry, I know. You still need a reference copy. It’s important. :)

Not to stress you out, but …
There’s a wait list that can get pretty crazy. Obviously if it’s an emergency, god forbid tfu tfu tfu, we’ll do everything in our power to sneak you in.

This might not be for you. You know how to tell?
If you haven’t already read the “is this you?” page, please please please go back and make sure it really is you. Because if it isn’t you, that would suck. I mean, obviously you are always you, but if you’re going to hire me in any capacity I really need you to be the kind of you I want to work with. Whew.

Important Thing #1

Eight more people this year will be able to do a set of six sessions for the price of four.
My hourly rate is $485, but you can do a six-session package for the price of four sessions. This option is limited to eight people right now and I may cancel this if I decide it’s not my thing anymore.

Each session is 60 minutes — by phone — and you also get a personal recording of the work we do on the call (for your ears only, of course - assuming, god willing, that technology cooperates).

Important Thing #2

During those six sessions we do two things:
We’ll (a) biggify the hell out of you and (b) come up with a STRATEGY and a PLAN for how you are going to earn back the money you just invested in these sessions. Exactly.

Good?

Okay. Assuming you’ve taken care of the prerequisites (see above), this is what happens next.

Step 1. You click the button at the bottom of the page, which is code for “Hey, I read your is this you page and yes, it’s me. And I’ve taken care of the prerequisites. And I’m excited. Can I work with your duck?”

Step 2. Once you’ve completed the payment process, we get you started on your application.

Step 3. We send you an email with a link to the scheduling page.*
*Keep in mind that the waiting list has in the past been as long as two months. If it feels like an emergency, send a support email and we’ll schqueeze you in somehow.

Step 4. Once you schedule you’ll get an email that tells you when and where to call and then you can go ahead and email me with as much or as little as you want me to know.

Step 5. Hooray! No more steps!

“Hey, I read your “is this you?” page and yes, it’s me. And I’ve taken care of the prerequisites. And I’m excited. Can I work with your duck? I understand I’m getting six sessions for the price of four, and that I’ll be making four total payments of $485 each and that we’ll come up with a plan for how I’m going to make that money back.”

You are loved and adored.
Havi (and Selma the duck)

P.S. Not ready for this kind of thing? That’s cool. Hang out on the blog. Read old posts and noozletters. Have a go with self-study … maybe try some of the destuckification-oriented take-home DIY solutions … it’s all good.
