I’ve shared a damaging habit keeping me from what I want: asking permission.

This week, I’ve got another terrible habit to share - kind of a sister habit.

What is it?

Constantly looking to everyone else as an expert.

Asking their input, gathering their opinions, and seeing if they...

It doesn’t matter how long we’ve been in business, there is something that keeps us stuck. 

Something that overwhelms us. 
Something that we don’t feel we do well. 

And I’m not immune to this. 

When I was making the transition from teacher to a business...

I recently went to the coast to attend the wedding of my friend.

And during that wedding, I remembered every tiny step she had planned to make her vision come to life.

It reminded me that sometimes we don’t give ourselves the grace to know that it can take a long time to get to where we...

Being a solopreneur, you have to wear all the hats.

You take care of one thing and then another thing shows up.

It doesn’t matter if you get one thing done, you end up having another thing show up right after.

It’s like a constant game of Whack-A-Mole.

One great example of this is...

I need to be honest with you...

For 2 years, I’ve put off doing The Webinar.

If you’re in the online space at all, you know webinars are a routine & important part of business.

But I didn’t want to do one. It somehow felt sleazy to me - EVEN THOUGH I TAKE WEBINARS ALL THE...

When you log onto social media, you can be bombarded with tons of messaging about how "you can make it to six-figures". Everyone scrambling, and hustling to get to this magical number that's representative of their income. 

They preach what's GOING to work for you. 

The perfect business...

I looked at my husband and said, “I need your opinion.” His ears perked up - I had his full attention.

“Do you think we’ll make it?” I asked, wanting him to soothe my worries about my business succeeding.

He looked at me - wanting to give me the answer I desperately...

I’m a time traveler.

Sometimes when I’m working with a client, she’ll be frustrated with herself or a situation. She’ll be angry that she’s not moving faster or that a conflict is keeping her stuck.

And then I simply ask, “Hey, last year at this time - how...

When a 9-year-old has a business idea, you listen up. But do you take them seriously?

Jenny Murphy’s daughter told her, “Someone should invent something to help people take better selfies…”

And Jenny became enough to jump jumped in & research how to bring the idea to...

I had the perfect day yesterday.

 When was the last time YOU said that - on a weekday?

 Here’s how I did it & how YOU can do it too…

My Mindset 

When I was a teacher, Monday was incredibly stressful. So stressful, that I would think about calling out and how to get...

I just want to go play golf on a Wednesday afternoon.

This was from a dude who owns a small, local brick & mortar business. He’s makes a nice living from his company and has a good team of people to help him.

But he can’t take any time off without his staff giving him a hard time....

Clients kept telling me, It just doesn’t feel the same without you here.

Lordy, lordy, the guilt was setting in fast!

I’d been working from 5am ‘til early evening at the fitness studio I owned, a schedule that was starting to create deep cracks in my armor.
