Here's the great news:  Social media is not really as complicated as it may seem, and when we discover how to best show up on our social media platforms as entrepreneurs - it can shift our entire business and attract real clients! T...

I don't know about you, but as an entrepreneur, I used to struggle with my identity a little bit. I thought, if I'm an entrepreneur, that's my lane and I can't stray outside the proverbial lines.   It didn't matter that my faith was a huge part of my life - I couldn't mix my faith and my business, it just won't work. Have you ever been there? Let me help set you free from the lie that I believed: ...

Alright coaches, I'm talking right to you today! I know you want to be the coach that actually creates transformation for your clients - and I want to help you get there. Here's the deal: There are so many well-meaning coaches out there, who are coaching with strategies that only lead to temporary shifts in thinking or behavior.  We don't want to just make our clients feel good in the moment - we...

It's 8:00pm on a Wednesday night… Are you just now closing your laptop for the night, mulling over all of the tasks on your to-do list that didn't get done? Are you just now eating a quick dinner that you throw in the microwave because you don't have the time or energy to make something, and everyone else in your house has already gone to bed? Are you noticing that it's been a while since you've s...

This week, I want to revisit one of my favorite podcast episodes - because I think it's so important , and relevant ! Have you ever been stretched too thin and overwhelmed?  Hey, me too!  When I first started as an entrepreneur, I felt like there was never enough of me to go around. I wanted to do it all - run my business, grow my non-profit, care for my household, and be a mother - but I felt lik...

Entrepreneurship is not a path that's free of feeling fear, and success is not a destination that's free of discomfort. And, that's great news ! I imagine that every entrepreneur pursuing their dreams feels discomfort at some point. And - do you know what's on the other side of that discomfort? Growth, perseverance, strength, empowerment, and so much more! This week on the Epic Success podcast, I...

We all know that the path to entrepreneurship isn't easy - it takes a lot of hard work. However, I want to let you in on a little secret - the path to entrepreneurship is more common than you might think .  It may not be easy - but you're not alone on this path! What if I also told you that I know of a roadmap to guide you step-by-step into that reality, right to financial freedom and fulfillment?...

Do you ever feel like you and your business are the best kept secrets ? You're working as hard as you can to take your business to the next level, but just can't seem to cross the threshold into the massive growth you know you're capable of AND just can't shake the feeling that there's something holding you back. I have a question for you - have you ever stopped yourself from stepping into somethi...

If you aren't exactly where you want to be in your business… If you want more clients and sold out programs, but it's a struggle… If you are driven by impact, but don't have the cash flow to make the impact you desire… Here's what's blocking you: what you saw and heard when you were growing up impacts how you view money. Unpacking those money stories is the key to shifting from wanting success and...

Wow, with a new year at our fingertips, if you're like me, it's got you deep into thinking about and planning goals. What is your BIG Epic audacious goal for the new year? I would love to hear! One of my goals is to help a million entrepreneurs train their brain to transform their life and business through our trademarked NeuroCoaching Model️ AND one thousand NeuroCoaches️ certified to coach with...

One of the things I get asked a lot is how to change habits. I think we all have habits we would like to either get rid of or a new habit we'd like to build. What is one habit you would like to change or add to your life? Want to know how to neurohack your success through habits? Awesome! It's not as "hard" as you may think. This week on the Epic Success podcast, I'm sharing how habit success is a...

Let's end 2020 with a BIG celebration, shall we? What if I told you the stress of the holidays is the best thing for your brain right now?  Triggering circumstances give you an inside view to your subconscious thoughts. Holidays are ripe with opportunities to become the creator of your thoughts – particularly in the context of situations or people who trigger us (hello holidays and judgy relatives...

And just like that, the holidays are upon us and 2020 is coming to a close. 2020 has come with its own hiccups and bumps and complete stand stills. One thing that stands out however is your resilience, breakthroughs, lessons, and blessings. I want to challenge you to take a moment to reflect on all of your best moments and wins of 2020 - your brain will thank you for it.  Your brain will love the...

2020 has been a year unlike any other year.  And we collectively felt it… on a global level. When I say 2020, what thoughts pop in your head? What emotions come rushing in? For a lot of people, the thoughts and emotions aren't positive. Things like dread, overwhelm, disappointment… It's real and it's genuine and it happens. In this week's episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I talk about how emoti...

This 4-letter F word will change your life.  Of course the F word I am talking about is FEAR.  Ever felt it? Yeah, me too. I still feel it every day. My guess is that if you're an entrepreneur, you have experienced fear. Whether you're afraid of going live on your Instagram... Or leaving your corporate job to pursue your calling... Or launching your first course to the world. As an entrepreneur, f...

I launched my program in the middle of a pandemic.  July 2020.  With the world being in the state it was in, I was hesitant..., but it was so overwhelmingly worth it! I was able to show up BIG, and serve my people even bigger. And I was able to offer them community, accountability, and transformation in the process… all through a Facebook Group! And I want you to be able to do the same thing! In t...

I hate to say it but the coaching industry is broken. What most coaches don't realize is that they are working against the way the brain is wired to get results. So many well meaning coaches have learned broken coaching methods which means they are coaching the wrong way… coaching the wrong thing! Coaching symptoms instead shifting at the source. And it's not their fault! There is no governing bod...

Picture this.  Thousands of lives are being transformed… bettered… changed! People are walking in the fullness of their calling and in the fullness of their purpose. People are living as the best version of themselves. Good things are happening. People are being helped. Love and encouragement is being shared.  And it's all because you helped them get there by stepping into your calling and walking...

How much are you letting fear control your life? What is the thing that you're saying that is stopping you from playing big and doing the big things you desire to do? Seriously though… Take a second and think about it.  What is that fear-filled thought that you've been telling yourself over and over again for years? In this week's episode of the Epic Success Podcast, I talk about how to Ditch Fear...

How many times have you planned on doing a social media live , only to stare at your face in the camera for five minutes, *palms sweaty*, and close the app because of nerves?  I know it's not just me!  We make these big plans, we have the script and the steps and the to-do list but something always keeps us from actually doing it. We keep… stopping.  In this week's episode of the Epic Success Podc...

Money is… what? Okay... Tell me honestly, what was you first thought!?  The truth is, every single person is going to have a different answer. Every single person has different thoughts and beliefs about and around money. "Money is hard to make." "Money is a necessary evil." "Money is the root of all evil ." "Money is energy." And then there's the "I need more money." "You can never have enough mo...

When I was a kid, we would drive through upscale neighborhoods and my dad would always say, "These people can only afford living here because they're living off the work of good people." In my young, child brain, I equated having money and living in a nice house to being a bad person. And my brain not only believed that for many, many years, but it caused me to operate and make decisions out of th...

Have you ever been stretched too thin and overwhelmed? Me too! When I first started as an entrepreneur there was never enough of me to go around.  I wanted to do it all - run my business, grow my non-profit, care for my household, and be a mother - but I felt like I'd have to give something up.  What I didn't know was that my brain was working against me… instead of having my brain work for me.  T...

What makes you tick? Why are you the way that you are? How many Buzzfeed quizzes and personality tests have you taken to figure it out? Which Disney Character am I? What color is my aura? Which Pumpkin Dessert Matches My Personality? (and for all my fall lovers… yes! That's a real quiz!) It's in our DNA to want to know! The amazing thing is… There's a brain science behind knowing ourselves, our pe...

I don't know if you knew this or not but… We  store emotion in our body.  That stress, anxiety, overwhelm… All of that emotion comes from thoughts - and those thoughts are directly connected and interwoven with your body.  What you think affects your body. How your body feels affects your mind.  It's Mind-Body Connection.  This week is the seventh week in our podcast series: The Brain Science of S...
