You have seen them in magazines and the homes of the rich and famous. Those dreamy hall entries with a table or console and beautiful objects and flowers on top, those perfectly styled coffee tables with books and accessories that are neatly stacked and nestled against each other… Read more

You can find more tips on creating a beautiful home focused on stylish well-being in the Empowered Wellness Magazine.

Here’s The Situation:

You have been stuck in the 5-figure level for too long and no matter what you do,

you still can´t open the next door...

What is holding you back from breaking that income level?

Why can´t you seem to be able to grow past a certain figure?

Have you lost motivation?

Do you need to feel the excitement of a challenge you know you can conquer?

If you have tried everything to break past that 5 figure income level and nothing is working, I have good news for you:

Optimise your surroundings and you will be optimising your business and your life.

An Optimised Workspace ensures you can be in the RIGHT MOOD at the RIGHT TIME so that every minute spent on your business is productive and enjoyable and therefore you can work smarter and have more time for the things that matter to you.

So, let me ask you this:

What is the mood

your business

needs you

to be in right now?

The reason why you do what you do is very likely to have more freedom (in every sense); to be able to spend time with your loved ones and to enjoy life more.

When you are working from the wrong workspace, your productivity is negatively impacted, your focus is lost often, you feel stuck and you unable to find answers and solutions to your problems and your motivation is low most of the time.

What is holding you back?

You know how to run a business, you have taken yours to the 5-6 figure level, you have systems in place but somehow, you cannot break that glass ceiling, you keep bumping into the same income level…you are starting to feel unmotivated because there are no more challenges for you to grow…

Your surroundings have a direct impact on your performance. You cannot possibly evolve if your surroundings are not upgraded to match your next level.

Your success depends hugely on how you feel and perform in your workspace.

Your focus, motivation and productivity require a very specific set of triggers in your workspace.

What´s more, your needs have outgrown, you cannot stay stuck in the same old environment and expect new performance in your work.

Over the last 2 years I’ve noticed that people are not aware of how fundamental their surroundings are to build a solid business.

Working from the wrong environment is making you to underperform, it is keeping you stuck and it is not allowing you to perform at you highest potential.

I am not just saying this out of nowhere, for the las 12 years, I have been designing high performing spaces for high achievers and high-end clients.

I have researched and tested what triggers keep them motivated, focused and inspired.

I have used commercial design principles, Emotional Intelligence and seller psychology to enhance their workspace so that it becomes a container for success.

I have brought all that research and experience into the Optimising Workspace System. It is the only 360º office design solution that  takes into consideration your emotional, psychological , lifestyle, spatial and aesthetic needs.

It is a bespoke solution catered to your needs and surroundings.

Being a business owner is no easy ride, the emotional rollercoaster you are on, requires a balancing and supportive environment in which you can feel safe, recharged, resilient and motivated.

If you are tired of feeling stuck, if you are done with trying different trainings and coaches that have disappointed you, now is the time to get those foundations reinforced.

Because, here is the thing, the environment that got you to 5 figures, won´t get you to the next income level.

Your surroundings need to be inspirational as well as aspirational, otherwise, you will remain stuck.

Your surroundings are keeping you stuck.

Are you ready to break past that outdated environment?

The Optimised Workspace System is a complete One on one solution that’s designed to help business owners:

• Who need to perform at their highest potential
• Who have big goals and aspirations
• Who are already making, at least 5-figures but somehow feel stuck at that level.
• Business owners who don´t care for a DIY course because they are past the testing phase
• Business owners who want a proven, done for you service that will finally help them break that income level

If you are ready to transform the way you feel in your business. Book your Consultation call.

If you want to be able to use your space as a powerful high performing tool.

If you are tired of invasive solutions every time you need to do videos, an Optimised Workspace can double up as a Video Studio and an unlimited source of inspiration and images for your social media posts. A space that can double up as a Video studio, with an Optimised Video Backdrop that will make your videos stand out.

A fully bespoke solution that will give you a beautiful, high performing space from which to work from and work around your needs.

The whole design process is a beautiful journey that will help you learn exactly what triggers your motivation, what keeps you on track, what enables you to work at your highest potential, the Optimising Workspace System is nothing like any other design service you have tried or heard of, this is about going deep into your the needs as a business owner, getting clear on your aspirations, identifying what keeps you going (we are all different and respond to different type of triggers) and, once we have that emotional aspect defines, we will dive deep into what style and functionality you need to make that space, not just beautiful, high-end looking, but also highly functional in an aesthetical way. A space that will fit seamlessly into your lifestyle and personal needs.

Our work space or office is such a powerful tool. It is so in two ways.

On the one hand, it is where we need to be the most productive, creative, efficient…and HAPPY.
On the other hand, it expresses a lot about us: our business style, our personality.

When we meet clients or when we hold Skype calls, webinars, we are sending out a very powerful image of how we are able to help them.
So take a minute to reflect upon this. Is that space that you are showing your clients or potential clients the best reflection of your knowledge and savoir-faire?
Is it going to make them trust that you can put their business in order when you are sitting in front of a messy shelf? Oh yes, a pile of books might reflect knowledge , however, the way those books are set says so much more about you.
Hadn´t you ever though about it? Well, it´s time you did. We are all very visual, it´s not by chance they say an image is worth a thousand words, it is the way our brains work. The first perception, lasts only seconds,but immediately makes an assumption about what our brain is perceiving. It doesn´t say, oh, let me get all the data I need about this and I will study it in depth and I will get back to you when I make up my mind about you. No! It doesn´t work that way.
In order to survive, our primitive ancestors had to make quick decisions – so they either ran for their lives as soon as they saw a lion or well, let´s put it simply, we wouldn´t be here today, would we?
So make sure those first seconds when someone gets to see you and your surroundings are capable of sending out the best impression of yourself and your business.

Imagine you are a web designer wanting to get a new client. You jump on a Skype call with your prospect. You might have even put on some make up (well, ladies, I guess, though I will not be the one to judge you if you are a man), you are nicely dressed, or maybe not . You´ve got your fancy presentation and you proudly show your client portfolio and all your great work.
But, all your potential client can see is the stain of a coffee mug on your desk, a messy shelf at the back and a pile of laundry on one corner of the room.
Now, the truth is that if you are selling them the concept of a great designed, sleek looking website… well, excuse me for being blunt but you are sending out contradicting messages.You get it, right?

So, first impressions DO matter in business. Obviously you might be , and I am sure you are the most efficient web designer out there, and yes, you think showing your messy office gives this nerdy-geeky-vibe which equals being a great web designer. Em, no! Or maybe they´ll think you are messy because you have so much work because you are so good at what you do, that you could not possibly have the time to style your office. No, again! Or you are just this free spirited entrepreneur who has this incredibly laid-back style that clients will adore…no!

That is where most people get it wrong. Your space can reflect that you are an easy going individual, no need for fancy, stiff decor. That´s not the point. The point is you must portray your best image in order for your clients to trust your professionalism. It might have nothing to do with how well you can perform your work, but unfortunately we have been wired to trust our first impressions.

If you are selling the image of a well-established multi-figure (I do hate that type of jargon) entrepreneur, how can you have such a shabby (without the chic) work space? You see, it just doesn´t match. Your space should align with your speech.

Your space should align with your speech. MelanieFalvey

So here is where you can start:
Look around your space and be objective, does it truly reflect who you are and who you want to be perceived as?
If not, think what element (colour or object) you can introduce to make it “more you”. Start small, one element at a time-introduce some object that bears your brand colour ,or
maybe a nice pen that will make you feel good and important. It doesn´t have to be pricey, but it must feel special to you.
For instance, I recently bought a flamingo pen. I adore flamingos since I was a little girl and now, having become quite a trend I can find them more easily. I have actually even created a whole collection with the flamingo theme, it will soon be available in my shop.

So I placed my new pen in my pen holder and every time I look at it, I associate it to signing: signing contracts, cheques (in order to cash them!) or who knows, maybe a book some day?*

That simple little item is “so me”, anyone seeing it knows this, they associate it with my style. Obviously my whole office reflects who I am because this is what I do, but everybody, absolutely everybody can learn how to create spaces that enhance them, reflect who they are at their best and make them more efficient, productive, creative, happier…which therefore leads to SUCCESS!

Ergo, what does your space look like?
What small change can you make today to improve it and make it more you?
