Have You Been Properly Training For Entrepreneurship? Launching and developing a business  without  kids is totally different from launching and developing a business  with  kids.

Are You Ready to Merge Your Personal Style With Your Personal Brand? In last week's episode with Clarissa Grace , you learned that I have some serious styling issues. Give me some board shorts, a tank top, and flip flops and I am one happy girl.  Unfortunately, that doesn't exactly scream professional. Is it possible to find that balance between being comfortable with your personal style and showc...

What Does Your Style Say About Your Personal Brand? I'll be honest ... I'm more comfortable in flip flops and a bathing suit than I am in what most people would consider appropriate professional attire. I even had a PR person tell me they couldn't work with me because my personal style fits in more at the beach than in the board room. It's just who I am. But ... is that negatively impacting my bus...

  You've just read "Crush It" by Gary Vee... You're all fired up. It's time to lay it all on the line. It's time to be your brand and share your message. And then... Someone pukes on you.

Being an entrepreneur and taking care of a family can leave you feeling like you're being torn in a thousand different directions. When you're with your family, you're worried about work and when you're working, you're constantly interrupted by your family. Here's the kicker, though ... It's not just your business. It's your entire family's business. In our family, there's not just one entrepreneu...

Entrepreneurs spend so much time thinking about their business' logo, colors, fonts, website design, social media, etc. but almost never think about their own personal brand. Your personal brand impacts your business' identity. My dear friend, Andrea Wenburg is back on the show to help us better understand why we need to focus on personal brand as much as our business brand. Andrea is the Host of...

There's been a recent shift away from a complete separation of business and purpose. This shift is due to the fact that more and more consumers are choosing to give their money to brands and companies with missions or beliefs that align with their own. To consumers, why you do what you do is now more important than what you actually do. Earth Day is rapidly approaching and, as an environmental act...

There's a lot of focus right now on business growth, diversifying your revenue streams, developing multiple services, programs, and courses, but scaling before you're ready can lead to business failure or slower growth.  I'm a firm believer in doing one thing so well that you become the go-to expert in your niche for it, and John Lee Dumas agrees. Today JLD, host of Entrepreneurs on Fire (EOFire)...

I can believe we're already in the second quarter of 2018!

I don't exactly hide the fact that I'm a Christian but I also don't regularly talk about it on the podcast.

Alex Miranda is a former Miami nightclub promote...

Making pre-recorded videos can be intimidating and, for a lot people, the idea of doing live videos on Facebook can be downright terrifying. Once the camera turns on, we can become a big ball of insecurities. I know this because this still happens to me.

There are a lot of misconceptions about what a lifestyle entrepreneur is. Your business is about your dreams. It's up to you to figure out what those dreams really are and then design your business around them. It's a pretty safe bet the vast majority of entrepreneurs prefer to have a business that allows them to spend time with their families, live their passions, and fulfill their purpose. If th...
