Life is just so much finer and more fun when you are being kind to yourself! You know I'm right about that.

Focusing on the positive in various ways is part of my gratitude practice, and so today I decided to find 5 fun things that happened in spite of or along with the stress of the week.

Looking back I do think some of my stress was just a "post-wedding crash". It was a lot of time, money, peopling and my introverted heart/mind/body/soul needed time to rest and recover, not to mention...

Good morning on this rainy (in North Carolina) Monday. We have two weeks of homeschool left (forever!), a wedding coming up on June 11 (my daughter), and of course the never-ending home to-do's cleaning, three meals a day, pets to take care of, check-ups to schedule, it's enough to make me want to hide under the covers!

I much prefer to have time and space for creating, planning, and selling. I prefer to outsource cleaning, but I don't have anyone at the moment and even looking for someone...

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...
