Simple living is trending, and it's easy to see why. The idea of slowing down and living a simple life is dreamy. Pair that dream with the aesthetic homesteading, sourdough, and morning routine content on Instagram and we're all saying, "sign me up for that"! But if so many of us crave a slow and simple life, why aren't more of us making it happen? When you think of simplifying your life, you migh...

Are you even aware of all the ways that you're living your life by default? There's this thing called the "default effect" that shows us that we're more likely to choose options that are given to us as the default choices. And it makes sense, right?!

As business owners, it's easy to fall into the endless learning cycle, where we're depending on someone else to give us the answer. But what if you could look internally to find the answers you're endlessly searching for? What if the solution to leveling up your business was to lean into your natural giftings, leverage the way that you were uniquely designed, and finally start listening to that li...

What comes to mind when you think of a 'weekly planning routine'? Do you envision someone sitting down in a quiet space for an hour, thoughtfully detailing a minute by minute plan for their entire week? Don't get me wrong, I love a good extended planning session, but week to week, that's just not realistic for most women. And the good news is you can become a really effective planner, even if you...

If you're struggling to make consistent progress on your business goals, you may be overdue for a CEO Day. A CEO Day is a monthly day set aside for you to reflect on what’s happening in your business and make intentional, strategic decisions about how to move forward. I almost think of this like a self-care practice for business owners, because when you're able to set aside time to plan out each m...

If you've ever delegated a task to your partner, kids, or an employee, you'll know how magical it feels when work gets done without you having to show up or lift a finger. It can be addicting!

And there are so many tasks that you can (and should) automate in your business. The...

The insidious thing about procrastination is that it's a cycle. Does this sound familiar... You look at your to-do list and see a hard project that feels overwhelming, so you check email and cross off the easiest items on your list first... Then you finish the day feeling like you didn't accomplish anything and are even more overwhelmed by the daunting notion of tackling that big project tomorrow....

So many women in business spend their days and weeks wondering, “What should I be focussed on?” or finding themselves torn between life and business and clients and marketing and taking care of themselves and taking care of kids and, and, and… This is such an overwhelming way to live, and I would even argue that it’s not the way we are meant to live. We are meant to LIVE our lives not simply MANAG...

So much of running a business is showing up for mundane tasks that aren't exciting. Results don't come instantly they come with consistency. And it's easy to get work done when we're motivated to do it, but we can't always rely on that motivation to be there. We're going to have off days, low energy days, and distracted days. So how can we, as business owners who need to show up and get things don...

Recently, I was reading a book about how to create a business that runs itself, and the author challenged his readers to create a business that would let them take a 12 week sabbatical. In my mind, a "12 week sabbatical" is basically man speak for "maternity leave"! As a service provider, it can be so hard to imagine being able to take 12 weeks off while returning to a business that isn't burning...
