Benefits of a SheCan Mastermind
Mastermind’s come with a multitude of amazing benefits that will last a lifetime.
The number one question Lauren get asked by people who haven’t participated in one of her Masterminds is, “What will I get out of it?”.
Masterminds have been used for years, for all different purposes. SheCan Masterminds are focused on (but not exclusive to) the personal and professional development of female entrepreneurs! It can be hard to tackle the hurdles life presents to us and at SheCan, we believe that no one should have to go through life alone. It is Lauren’s goal to have each of her mastermind members feel like they are no longer on a solo journey, but one that is supported and celebrated with a group of like-minded individuals.
Here is a list of top 5 benefits of a SheCan Mastermind:
You will meet a group of like-minded and diverse women.
The most beneficial part of being a member in a Mastermind is that you get to meet some really incredible women. These women work hard for what they do, whether they are single mothers, entrepreneurs or work for a big corporation. One thing they have in common is that they all want the same thing; to achieve growth in both their personal and professional lives. Whether you are completing a 6-month Mastermind or a year-long Mastermind, you will create friendships and connections with other women who know first-hand what it’s like to be a woman in this day and age. Once you’ve made these timeless connections, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it 10 years ago!
You will have a safe and trusting space to share your thoughts, feelings, and experiences free of judgement.
Part of ensuring that all SheCan Mastermind members feel comfortable is by having each member sign an non-disclosure agreement (NDA). NDA's ensure that everyone in a SheCan Mastermind can feel safe and have no fear that the personal or professional information that they've shared with the group will be spoken about outside of the session. The comfortability of the SheCan Mastermind members is something Lauren will always prioritize because the more comfortable you feel, the more vulnerable you will be! One-piece of advice her Mastermind participants say, is that the more you put into the sessions, the more you'll get out of them; so be as honest and open as you can. This starts with feeling SAFE in the shared space.
You will be encouraged and held accountable for your goals.
As an entrepreneur, Lauren is constantly setting goals for herself that without failure, are missed or overlooked because she lives a busy lifestyle. She knows she is not alone in this because she frequently has members telling her how they feel guilty or bad because they didn’t achieve a goal they set for themselves. It’s important to know that it’s OKAY to not achieve each and every goal because sometimes, life happens or priorities shift. With a SheCan Mastermind, we give members the opportunity to ask themselves WHY they are setting that goal and if they feel it is realistic for them to achieve. By allowing others to know your goals, you are actively holding yourself accountable and will feel a stronger sense of ownership towards them. Part of Lauren’s mission as a Mastermind Facilitator is to provide her members with a platform that lets them share their goals, encourage others to achieve them, and most importantly, align them with their values.
You will be surrounded by generous people who care about your growth and development.
Nothing is more rewarding than surrounding yourself with people who genuinely care about you and your goals. All of the SheCan Mastermind members are generous people who selflessly give support, advice, and encouragement to the other members; not only does this approach benefit the member receiving guidance, but also the member giving it. Additionally, the support that members receive in the sessions is extended daily through an active private group chat outside of the scheduled Mastermind hours. This is something that is priceless and should not be taken for granted!
You will feel empowered and energized after each session.
The first time you hit your goals for the month, you will feel amazing! The first time another member hits their goals, you will feel inspired. The first time every member in the group hits their goals, you will feel EMPOWERED. A message Lauren will always try to convey is that, no matter the outcome of the week, there is always a reason to feel good when you are in a SheCan Mastermind. If you miss your goal, you’ll have endless support from others and an opportunity to reflect on why. If you have a long day, there is always someone there to listen. If you got the promotion you’ve been after for months, there is a group of incredible women there that are ready to celebrate your success.
