Going Back to Work After Chaos: Returning to Business as Usual

If you are ever torn between life and business, you do not need permission to choose YOU! When you build your business with intention, it will work for you, even when life surprises you. It’s more than okay to prioritize yourself over your business with zero guilt. A few months ago, I got a call saying that my dad had a stroke. The following weeks unfolded so dramatically as his condition went from bad to worse. It became very clear that this wasn’t just a typical stroke. Eventually, we found out he has a very rare autoimmune disease that caused him to require around-the-clock care all of a sudden. I was simply not prepared for this. Keep in mind, during all of this, my business still had to keep running.

The Power of Pause & How to Leverage it to Accelerate Your Online Business

Today we are digging into what it really takes to reinvigorate yourself. When I am feeling creative resistance, I have a tendency to try and push through – creating an unnecessary environment of stress. When you really slow down, you have the opportunity to gain a new perspective. I like to teach you through my own experiences so I wanted to put myself in my client's shoes. At the end of last year and the beginning of this year, I found that my clients were really resistant to showing up online and I started questioning why. I realized that the resistance largely stemmed from the fear that my clients once understood social media and now no longer do!

From a Harvard-trained Neuroscientist: This Counterintuitive Strategy Can Help You Succeed in Your Career

People often believe that in order to succeed at their work, they have to be absolutely excellent at everything that they do. But what if following that path would only lead you to burnout? Today’s episode was inspired by an article I read by Morgan Smith for CNBC. She interviewed Harvard-trained Neuroscientist and Adjunct Professor Juliet Han. Han suggests a totally different approach to growth. Rather than self-examining your strengths and weaknesses, what if you focused predominantly on your job responsibilities?

Messy Sex, Finding Alignment & Doing IT Scared

There are unspoken expectations thrust upon every area of your life. People complain about how others choose to show up, respond, or not respond to what’s happening in the world. There is so much anger about the state of our world and our economy, what people are saying or not saying, and even how you might choose to run your business.

I get it! These are important things to have thoughts and feelings about. But what would it look like to show up in alignment with your truth? At the end of the day, it’s about you, the weight that you carry from these societal expectations, and how that bleeds into your business and career.
