Answering Your Questions: Monetizing on Instagram

I want to talk about the intimidating parts of getting visible because it can be so vulnerable! My focus is specifically on Instagram, but that doesn’t mean that it’s the only platform for you.

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.

Design a Business That Can Run Without You

Today, I want to talk about why it's super important to strengthen your business so it can handle the unexpected stuff that happens in life. Bad things are gonna happen, it's just a fact. But you don't want your business to rely too much on you to handle all the problems. Personally, I don't want to have to depend on someone else for money, and I bet a lot of you feel the same way. You want your business to stay strong even when life gets challenging. It's not about fixing every problem perfectly; it's about keeping things going smoothly even when things get tough.
