I wanted to share this inspirational story with you...

Meet Ann Bell, she was an Elevate Mastermind member (which is now The Mastermind Course Library), an experienced massage therapist & a life coach. When the pandemic happened Ann (like many others) was forced to shut down her business overnight. The uncertainty of her business, life & finances had Ann considering an online business & the desire to learn how to create more income. 

Ann then joined the Elevate Mastermind &...

“Of course motivation is not permanent. But then, neither is bathing; but it is something you should do on a regular basis.” – Zig Ziglar

Motivation comes and goes but it's what moves us forward towards our goals so when it wanes I take action! Here are a few things to look at if you aren't feeling motivated:

1. Are you too comfortable? Yes, we can become too comfortable, our paycheck meets our needs things aren't demanding massive action so we can just coast along. That's...

Recently I've been puzzling and I've been in a state of indecision over some business decisions. Have you ever noticed how indecision is actually a decision to stay stuck?

Making a move in a direction, even the wrong direction will move you out of stuckness and eventually onto the right path. Failing forward, learning as we go, right?

I decided to make a move and just go through my products one by one and decide if I would move them, retire them, and maybe leave a few just having a simplified...

This week I'm on a 7-day "workcation" alone at the beach, just me, my projects & ideas, food, my laptop, and an unreasonable number of notebooks. Yesterday I arrived, grocery shopped, and got organized for my week. Today I got up bright and early for a beach walk and then got to work!

My first workcation was in 2015, I ran off to Saint Augustine for my first Massage and Spa Resource Bundle Sale. I made over $5,000 on that idea, it was my first "big" successful launch. In 2014 I made $900...

What do we all possess an unlimited supply of that can solve any problem? CREATIVITY!

Need more money? Get creative, look for places to save, things to sell, ways to earn more, start that side hustle, try things.

Want a cleaner house? Get creative with storage solutions, cleaning routines, who does what, even your expectations can be managed creatively.

Ready for more fun? Do it, get creative, plan...

It's easy to jump into the busyness of the day, getting ready, thinking about the to-do list, taking care of children, pets, and so on.... When we just jump straight in we are generally reacting to the world around us, other people's expectations, wand, and needs. Of course, there is a time and a place for that with jobs and families, but I would like to encourage you to take just a few minutes each morning before all of those commitments and ask yourself a few important questions that will...

Whenever I'm feeling frustrated or out of sorts (aka out of alignment), it's usually because I've been doing too much, and focusing on the wrong things. It's natural to notice what's going wrong rather than all of the things going right! Studies show that we humans actually have a negativity bias!

Instead of seeing the three drawers, we have already decluttered, we see the seven we have left and feel overwhelmed about it.

I decided, knowing that the little things are the big things, to ask...

June was a busy month in my business and in life! I thought I would do a round-up post of my projects and activities, a bit of a behind-the-scenes look at this mom’s “Laptop Lifestyle”.

 Home & Health

 We finished up our homeschool year the first week in June and are just carrying on with math lessons any day we are home and 30 minutes a day of reading. I do a weekly “homeschool trade” with another mom and we decided to keep our schedule so I have...
