It's Personal

Do you really, really know what you’re the authority in? Sometimes I even second guess myself. It’s what the TEDx world calls your red thread: that authority thread that weaves through your life, your business, and everything you do. It’s not about what your business does or your certifications - it’s much deeper than that. Start by asking yourself: What are 10 wins that you’re proud of? What’s th...

Ah, the age old question: Can we have it all? But, what does that really mean? I want to reframe that question in this episode because everyone’s definition of “all” is different. When thinking about your own “all,” remember that everything falls into these 3 categories: health, wealth, and relationships. What does “all” feel like in each of those?  Own your desires Tap into your inner advent...

There are so many people promising big results. “Just do the work, follow the steps, and you’ll have the same success I have!” But, how often does it actually work? You see these people bragging about how much money they’ve made with their system, people buy in, and then they feel let down when their results don’t match the promise. There are some ways to ensure you invest in programs that will ac...

Why do we nickel and dime ourselves, especially in the early stages of business? Why do we keep buying low ticket offers that don’t get us the transformation we need? Every investment is a reflection of a belief you have in yourself. How much do you trust yourself to get the results? What are you willing to give up in order to allow the change to happen? What’s the problem with low ticket offers?...

This may seem obvious, but when we’re working to make an impact with our business, the ripple effect extends far beyond our imagination. Think about Oprah or Beyonce. Their businesses are so aligned with who they are that the reach of their influence is gigantic. When you tap into that knowledge that your business is you, and you get to do things the way that you want, freedom is created. You get...

You are not a victim. But let’s clarify, I’m not talking about the textbook definition of a victim as in someone who has been harmed. I’m talking about the victimhood mindset that is so prevalent lately, especially with struggling small business owners. We get to choose how we perceive our circumstances. Victim mentality is sneaky. It shows up when you least expect it and reduces the impact you ar...

We all want to monetize our authority and the genius that is innate to us - it’s a no-brainer, right? But what about adversity? Why does it seem socially unacceptable to use our stories of adversity in our sales and marketing? Before I decided to do my TEDx talk, I knew there would be people who would judge me for talking about my experience with losing my son. Or, maybe it was my own fear saying...

The real truth is a little scary, isn’t it? Have you noticed that when we’re working towards something we really want, adversity gets in our way?  The thing about adversity is that it comes in big and small ways to all of us, and we get to decide what to do with it. Adversity gives us the gift of growth. This podcast is for truth-seeking women who are ready to turn that inevitable adversity i...
