Why I've been hiding (and the 2 spots that just opened up)

Hi friends,

I need to tell you something I'm not proud of.

Last month, when life hit a rough patch, I did what I always do when things get overwhelming:

I hid.

Not from my work (I kept showing up there). Not from my family (I'm not a monster). But from the parts of my life that matter most to building what I actually want.

I stopped posting on social media. Avoided outreach. Postponed the big conversations I knew I needed to have.

And here's the kicker - I had a perfectly reasonable story for all of it. “There was too much going on in the news”, things were "in transition," I needed to "focus on priorities."

Sound familiar?

Here's what I've learned: This isn't a character flaw. It's a pattern.

And according to Lauren Zander (whose work has been not so quietly changing lives for over 20 years), it's called your "6%" - the part of your mind that's been running the same protective programs since you were 25.

The thing about your 6%...

It's not all bad. Some of it you want to keep. (I like that I put dishes away immediately. That's my 6%, and I'm keeping it.)

But some of your 6% is running interference on your dreams.

Like Elena, who completed 5 successful business launches in one year but still couldn't shake the feeling she wasn't "good enough."

Or Lisa, who found her person - the relationship she'd been dreaming of for years - but was so scared of getting hurt that she was creating elaborate future problems while ignoring simple present solutions.

Or Josh, who got so close to his dream job he could taste it, then used one rejection to abandon all the practices that had gotten him there in the first place.

Here's what's wild: They were all doing "the work."

Reading the books. Trying the strategies. Showing up consistently.

But there was still this voice saying it wasn't enough. They weren't enough. They should be further along by now. Lauren calls that “beating yourself with the time stick”.

What Lauren taught them (and what she'll teach you)

This isn't about working harder or being harsher with yourself.

It's about recognizing the specific ways your 6% keeps you stuck—and learning to work with it instead of against it.

Lauren calls it "getting out of your own way," and I've watched her help people do it for years through her Handel Methodology:

Dreams that are specific enough to actually manifest (not vague enough to stay safe)

Promises you'll keep (because they're designed by your higher self, not your should-self)

Consequences that work with your real life (traveling with friends? Your consequence needs to travel too)

The taglines that rewire how you see yourself (because you can't magnetize what you don't believe you deserve)

This isn't therapy. It's not just manifestation.

It's practical Life Coaching for people who are already doing the work but keep hitting the same invisible walls.

The group starts next week

Lauren is starting a new small group, just 5 people total.

3 spots are filled. 2 spots just opened up.

This is for people who:

  • Are tired of being their own biggest obstacle

  • Keep making promises to themselves and breaking them

  • Want to stop hiding when things get challenging

  • Are ready to work with their patterns instead of fighting them

  • Know they're capable of more, but can't seem to get out of their own way

This is NOT for people who:

  • Want a quick fix or overnight transformation

  • Aren't ready to look at their own patterns honestly

  • Think they just need to "think more positively"

  • Want someone to tell them what to do rather than help them understand why they do what they do

What you get:

10 weeks of small group sessions with Lauren (max 5 people - she knows your name, your patterns, your dreams)

Weekly homework that works (the kind you'll want to do, not the kind you should do)

Access to the methodology that's helped thousands of people stop sabotaging themselves (on inner.U)

A group of people who get what it's like to be smart, capable, and still somehow stuck

Most importantly, Someone who sees your patterns clearly and knows exactly how to help you work with them

The investment is $2,397 or $2,000 if you already have inner.U.

(For context: Lauren's private coaching is $18,000+. This is the only way to work with her at this level.)

Here's the thing about timing...

You know that voice that says, "Maybe next time," or "I should wait until..."?

That's your 6%.

The thing your 6% doesn't want you to know:

Now is exactly when you need this most.

Want one of the 2 spots?

We plan to start next Friday (if full)

(Or hit reply if you have questions. I read every email.)

Here's to working with yourself instead of against yourself,

Kimberly

P.S. - If you're thinking "I should wait until I have my life more together" or "Maybe I'm not ready for this level of work"... congratulations. You just met your 6%.

The people who transform their lives aren't the ones who wait until they're ready. They're the ones who show up ready to figure it out.

Thank you for being part of our community.
