What, Why? How? - Presence! Feminine Woman Newsletter
|
Happy Monday, Reader, Welcome to our weekly Monday newsletter where we take a deep dive into personal development through etiquette, elegance, and femininity. Today’s subject is: Feminine Presence What is presence? Presence is confidence without arrogance. It’s one of the secret sauces I teach in Growing Your It Factor and if you missed that episode, you can listen here on Spotify or here on Apple Podcasts. Why is presence important? Presence is what you exude and it can be magnetic to others or it can be a repellent to others. When you’re being considered for that promotion… your boss wants to know if you embody that position already. When you want to raise your rates for your clients… they want to know if you embody your next level already. When you show up on social media…it’s your presence that people will connect …or not connect with first… Presence is not heard… it’s FELT. Here’s an example: Have you ever been around someone who didn’t talk much but as soon as you got around them the atmosphere felt: Thick like you could cut it with a knife? Cold? Awkward? I’m sure you wanted to exit left. And I can guarantee if you asked that person what was wrong the answer would be: "Nothing." However, with an atmosphere feeling like that, you know the word nothing is a lie. People don’t believe what you say…they believe what you embody. So, now you say - Well, I don’t want THAT type of presence because I know what that feels like. Now, you want to know how to increase your amazing feminine presence. So, here we go with two ways below. 1.Assess Ask those you trust around you “what you give off” when you’re around them. Is it confidence? Arrogance? Insecurity? Joy? Peace? Love? Also, be honest with yourself about what you already know you may exude. You can never change what you won’t confront. 2.Change your thoughts If you continually think you’re miserable, your atmosphere will be miserable. If you continually think that every day is getting better, you’ll have the strength from the joy that you need to march through every day. Presence comes from what you continually think about and as the Bible says, As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he! Change your thoughts and watch your presence skyrocket. FWA Updates: Applications are currently closed, as all seats are filled for Feminine Woman Academy and we’re spending time welcoming all of our brand-new students and preparing for our FWA-only event this summer. We desire to always have a “boutique” approach instead of a commodity department store approach to ensure we can go deep instead of wide with our coaching students. We re-open this summer and only those on the waitlist here will know as soon as we re-open, which will still be for a limited amount of seats. However, before you join the FWA waitlist, it’s imperative to listen to episodes 1-5 all about Feminine Woman Academy at this site here. That’s the only way you will TRULY know if FWA is for you. Warm Regards, Amanda Ferguson & Team AF Enterprises |
