That if you aren’t w...

Does your business consume you? If you’re like me, you probably love what you do. I mean, we didn’t take the leap of working for ourselves in order to do something we didn’t love right? Work and hustle — those aren’t bad things. It’s great if you love what you do! The problem comes when we allow our business to consume us. If you are one of my students or clients, you...

Tired of Playing the Numbers Game? Let’s face it. The numbers game? It doesn’t work. We’ve all gotten those DMs. You know the ones — the random, generic messages that lead straight into a pitch. Or, we’ve gotten the huge list of notifications of likes and a comment or two along with a follow. Just to follow them back and never hear from them again. I would think we can all...

Starting a business can be really overwhelming. Once you jump in and realize just how many different hats you have to wear, you also realize how much you have to learn. Which eventually leads you to the rabbit...

Have you done a 2020 goals check-in? 2020 has been quite the year. Last December when I sat down with my Powersheets to plan for the new year and set my goals, I had absolutely no idea what was to come (obviously, none of us did). But I thought it would be fun to go through my 2020 goals with you, and how they’ve changed over the course of the year. And if you haven’t yet, I highly enc...

You’re making launching hard You might be someone who absolutely hates launching, or maybe you love the adrenaline rush, but hate the stress. Or, maybe you’ve never actually gone through one out of fear – fear of imperfection, of it not going the way you’d hoped, of not having the timing just right … there can be a lot of reasons to fear launching, if you let yourself. Toda...

How do you find the right coach for you? Let’s be honest. Deep down, we all want a coach. We want someone who can tell us what to do, to help us uncover what’s holding us (and our business) back. But actually investing in a coach? That can be really scary. You probably wonder, what if I don’t get a return on my investment? What if my business doesn’t actually grow? What if...

Content batching — they key to creating consistent content. When I started my business, I thought that being organized and using my planner would be enough, but I was so wrong. I was constantly feeling like I was all over the place, and not getting things done.
