Many of you who have heard me speak or been to any of my events in the past have heard me talk about being in the courage zone so that you can grow the way you want to grow and do things the way you’ve never done them before. I’ve been thinking a lot about […]
Read MoreGET GOING: Get over that lack of Motivation
I’ve had a lot of questions lately about motivation and just getting started. It seems that a lot of people are having trouble getting going on things that they know they need to do for their business. I have several ideas about this, and I think that it gets tougher in the summer because we […]
Read MoreBeat the Post-Vacation Blues: My Tips for a Smooth Re-Entry
Summer’s here, and you know what that means – vacation time! While I dream about those getaways as much as the next person, let’s be honest – that first day back can be a doozy. Trust me, I’ve been there (and by “there,” I mean buried under a mountain of emails and laundry). But fear […]
Read MoreAre you Stuck in Motion? Take Action
One of my favorite quotes comes from American author Ernest Hemingway. It says, “Never mistake motion for action.” Many times, entrepreneurs talk about how much they’re getting done in a day. The issue is that yes, they’re getting a lot done, but they’re not moving the needle forward. They’re simply in motion with a bustle […]
Read MoreHandle Hard Better: Where’s my EASY BUTTON?
Let’s face it, running a business is hard. Even when it’s fun, it’s hard. It’s hard to market, it’s hard to find the right words, it’s hard to brand, to choose colors, to sell, to find the right people. Sometimes, it’s hard to keep going. I was watching a video from the Duke women’s basketball […]
Read MoreWhat if you could DANCE Your Way to Success?
Several years ago, a video that Misty Copeland, one of the greatest premier ballerinas of all time, crossed my path on social media. She is a lovely, smart, giving person, and if you’ve never seen her dance, you should look her up. Even if you’re not a fan of ballet, you will soon become a […]
Read MoreGrowth: Where are you Growing?
Last year, my business started talking to me, and perhaps my spirit started talking as well. I was feeling a bit complacent. A bit meh. Don’t get me wrong. I love my life, and I love serving my clients and teaching the things I teach. I am passionate about teaching others to implement the things […]
Read MoreAbundance, What’s your Word?
Abundance. That’s my word for 2024. But first, I am going to get brutally honest with you all. The last quarter of 2023 was a hard one. I was struggling with motivation for my business, with energy, with sadness, and with sleep. Along with everything going on in my business, there was a lot of […]
Read MorePracticing Gratitude
I recently read a newsletter from Jon Gordon, author of the Energy Bus and other books on positivity and leadership. In the article, he said, “It’s impossible to be stressed and grateful at the same time.” Before I read the piece, I had already been thinking about gratitude and how I should practice it more […]
Read MoreLay it all on the Line
My question for you is, when are you going to do the thing? That big thing? The one that makes you a little queasy and pretty uncomfortable. Why am I asking? Over the last several years, I have been watching The Voice. Every year as the new season starts, I am highly impressed by those […]
