Speaking up, saying what's on your mind, having a difficult conversation, or addressing a problem is not easy stuff.   Most of the time, we make things much bigger and scarier than they really are. Your voice matters – you give our power away by lowering or silencing your voice. This looks like... Not asking for something because you don’t want to inconvenience someone Avoiding asking someone...

I know you’ve been there – something needs said or dealt with and that rollercoaster of a ride feeling emerges in your stomach. Do you say something? Do you let it go? Am I over reacting or is this a legit issue? Sometimes it feels easier to just let it go – but that often leads to other challenges. Miscommunication is often the root of frustration, mistakes, and challenges between people. Today w...

I know social media can be a giant pain in the ass. I also know it's one of the most powerful tools you can access as a business owner trying to grow a business. #Powerback episode 64 breaks down some insanely quick and simple ways for you to take your powerback in social media. These tips will help you optimize your pages, make them more brand consistent, and start to attract the right clien...

Different music?? Different intro?? You’re damn right it is! It was time for a shift and being locked in my house has given me a lot of time to get real and raw with myself. We talk about those subtle whispers that turn into screams if you don’t listen to them – and how eventually they turn into the house from The Wizard of Oz and smack you square in the face if you continue to ignore the signs. (...

Running a business is hard enough as it is… and then there’s online marketing on top of it. Social media platforms are constantly changing, SEO this and meta tag that… honestly – how do you keep up with it all? The good news is, you don’t. Knowing who your customers are and connecting directly with is first and foremost is the key to nailing your online marketing. At the end of the day, you want t...

It’s very easy to get caught up in what you feel you HAVE to do vs. what you WANT to do. You start comparing your life to others and doing things that seemingly helped them get there. You admire other businesses and start doing things they’re doing, because that’s what it takes to be successful.  Then we trickle into home, your health, and your mindset… you’ve been absorbing everyone else’s ways a...

When you think about the first time you got your period, what comes to mind? Probably an awkward conversation and a 3” thick pad that you didn’t really understand how to use. Fast forward to today… do you get excited about getting your period? Do you feel empowered by your cycle? It’s ok, I already know the answer to this. What if I told you that you could not only ENJOY your period, but have a mo...

This week, I want you to take your Powerback by making a decision you’ve been hung up on. I know you’re faced with a lot of decisions on the daily, but the one I want you to focus on is the one that takes up the most of your mental capacity. This is the one you think about day in and day out. You play scenarios on repeat like they’re a movie, but each one has a different ending. You go from scared...

You’ve gotten the infamous email or direct message – the one that says, “Hello @yourfullhandlename, are you interested in growing your business? If so, I am available to talk to you at 2pm today. If you don’t respond I’ll assume you’re not interested in growing your business.” Passive aggressive asshats. That’s what I call these people. And then I block them. The biggest mistake people make in the...

It’s so easy to look at what all of your friends and fellow business owners are doing and think – well crap, they’re way ahead of me. I’ll never get this right. But here are the facts: when someone else is killing it, that doesn’t stop you from doing the same. You may be on a different chapter of life than they are, but that doesn’t mean you should toss the whole thing in the fire.  Today, I want...

By the time that we're witnessing someone success, it can often be perceived that it came kind of out of nowhere, as if the success just fell into their lap. Oh, they're lucky. Oh, I wish I had what they had already. But here's the truth. We're only witnessing a chapter of their story. What we've missed are the encyclopedia sized chapters leading up to the climax of their...

Earlier this week we talked to Jamie Elizabeth Thompson about the Power of Sexual Energy. In this episode she shared that creating a self-care routine can not only raise your vibration, but allow you to be still, connect with your source, and manifest innovative ideas that don’t typically come from logic.    So how can you create your own self-care routine? Everyone’s needs are different, but here...

Let’s talk about sex, baby. I have been manifesting this episode for months!!  The power that we hold within our bodies is one of our most resourceful yet underutilized tools. The power of sexual energy directly correlates back to your success, your freedom, and your livelihood. And when that energy isn’t released, it has to go somewhere – body pain, depression, anxiety, anger…  When you’re exhaus...

Stop downplaying your wins.  Somewhere along the way you were taught that anytime someone gives you a compliment or praises something that you’ve done, your response should be to tell them all the ways you’ve screwed up. You go right into how crappy the day is, or how much you paid for those shoes someone thinks are amazing.  When you’re winning, allow yourself to win. That starts with believing t...

Sharing your story with the world can seem underwhelmingly, kind of overwhelming. You're saying nobody wants to hear my story. Who's actually going to read it? What if they judge me or say something negative online? Being vulnerable and putting yourself out there takes gutsy off its own. But when you do, the power starts to unfold. Today we're talking about the power of storytelling...

There’s a lot of pressure to always be “ok.” How are you doing? - “ok” How is business? - “ok” How’s the family? - “ok” How many times have you responded with OK knowing damn well that everything was indeed NOT OK? Feeling sad or upset or defeated isn’t the same as having negative energy. The good vibes only movement has people feeling bad for feeling bad. Sometimes life is just hard and you’re no...

Building a business is much like building a house. Before you put on the roof, you must have walls. And to put up walls you need a foundation. But before you can even consider ANY of that, you must first have a plan – a blueprint. When you started your biz, you were most likely winging it – and guess what? Most business owners are. But if you’re ready to increase your credibility, get in front of...

You’re thinking – which means you’re in the future that hasn’t happened or stuck in the past that’s already gone. Or you’re feeling, which means it’s hard for you to know right or wrong. Today I have a very special guest who’s talking all about that “secret” part of success that not many people dig into. It’s literally one word, and I can’t give it away here. JB talks about finding calmness and cl...

You’re feeling all kinds of emotions, but the world (like memes and that successful person you look up to) has told you to be strong; keep hustling; work, work, work . When did we take emotion out of leadership? You’re bottling so much up — of course you feel defeated. This week you get to take your powerback by letting that shit out. Ugly cry. Break some glass. Yell. For heaven's sake, FEEL....

It can be difficult to navigate your way through the storm. When it feels like everything is crumbling around you, you’re faced with a lot of decisions, or you just don’t have clarity on a situation, your body is going to go into overdrive – resulting in overthinking and underdoing. The best way to take your powerback in the chaos is to clear the air, nix the grey areas and make a decision. Making...
