Overwhelm seems to be going around, I've noticed it with my clients, friends, and myself. It seems like everyone is feeling a bit in the weeds, there's SO MUCH TO DO...

 One big sign of overwhelm is overreacting to something that wouldn't normally phase you, like that client canceling at the last minute when it's already been a slow week (suddenly it's not just a random slow week but we are a FAILURE at business), or your kid asking for a treat when your bank account is on empty, or when...

Kajabi is the all-in-one platform that I use to run my business. Some people say that it's too expensive, but I wholeheartedly disagree. Here's why I love Kajabi and think it's the best value for creating and managing an online business. 

Kajabi really is all in one. I use it for my website, blog, shop, membership & subscriptions, and email marketing.

I had a WordPress site for many years and had to buy new plugins for absolutely everything I wanted to add or do. This involved:

Many entrepreneurs (maybe you?) are natural rebels and independent thinkers, which is awesome and I wouldn’t want to be anything or anyone else, but we can rebel against even ourselves!

We rebel against any rules or systems even though having systems in place can elevate us, even though “rules” for different areas of life can ultimately lead us to the results we say that we want!

 If you want to lose some weight, being strict about what foods you eat will get you...

One of the most powerful and impactful questions you can ask?

This morning we got up at 3 am for an early morning flight . Something I swear I will never do, every time I do it. But, it seems to keep popping up, mostly because I can’t be bothered with travel plan details and love for my husband to handle the logistics if we are traveling together.

 So, all that to say I only got a couple of hours of sleep. I have trouble sleeping in ideal situations and I’ve never slept on a...

I am making a comeback! Still not 100% but getting there, and I am amazed how much I have found I can work on even though I'm not feeling mentally or physically at my best. 

Over the past week or so I've been doing a lot of much-needed digital decluttering, and it's a great way to shift your energy, clear out unneeded and unnecessary clutter so you use what you have.

Clutter including digital clutter wastes time & energy and keeps us stuck in the past. It can also slow down and...

First, become the person, then get the result!

Who gets the results? The person who is wishing, shoulding, thinking about, or as we say here in the South "fixing to"? Or, the person who is learning, doing, taking action, decided, and committed? Of course, we all know, it's the decided action taker but we often don't realize how easy it is to flip the switch!

You can go from being someone who dreads marketing their business to someone who is learning new ways to market their business with a...

Yesterday, I was repotting a few plants and I am not a “plant person” but people keep moving and giving me plants and I do have a nice sunny light-filled house so I try. I had one plant (some kind of desert palm guy) who was completely root bound, there was almost no soil left and I had to work and work to loosen the roots enough to get him out of the pot. This plant was completely stuck and as a result not only couldn’t grow but was starting to suffer. 

I think we can...

Much of the good stuff in life takes place outside of your comfort zone! Learning new things, starting a business, going on adventures, it’s all a bit risky, but where would we be without taking risks? Probably at home on our couches that’s where and although that’s fun occasionally there is so much more to life!

I’d like to share with you a few tools I use to take more risks in life, let me know in the comments below if you have any to add to our list.

If you have a goal or habit you are striving for, examine what stories you are telling yourself. If your goal is to hit the gym daily but your story/belief is that the only way to be a great mom is to spend all of your non-working hours with your kids because that’s what “good moms” do, you will quickly sabotage any activities that don’t jive with that story. 

The good news is that you can change your story, and your beliefs to align your goals with your values....
