I don't keep regular business hours for 1 specific reason... My work is here to support my life, not the other way around. That means some weeks I work weekends (as I write this it is 6:30 pm on Sunday), some days I work into the wee hours of the morning, and sometimes I rise before the sun.

Office hours are not the same as availability. 

Just because you are at your desk doesn't mean you are available.

Maybe that’s an unpopular opinion, but it’s an adopted Motto that has proven beneficial.

You do NOT need to take calls whenever you’re at your desk.

Or leave your inbox open all day so you can immediately reply.

Or even answer texts while you’re trying to get work done.

I know this is hard to swallow. Especially in a world where we as women are taught that our role is to help, be avail…

Something you may not know about me is that I am passionate about business being supportive to your overall wellness. As a lifelong work-a-holic, I know  how easy it is to slip into patterns of getting work done first and foremost. As a mom, I know how easy it is to skip a meal just so you can check something off the list while they are occupied. Let's face it we all have our seasons where health and wellness come second to our need to get s**t done. (Pardon my language).  While we are being hon…

"When  you feel like Quitting, Think about why you started." 

I have a firm belief that when we know why we do something we are far more likely to be successful at it. I have seen it have 2 major impacts...

1) It will drive you to continue to forward in the face of adversity.

2) It will guide you to aligned work. 

In my course Cultivate Rythms we spend an entire lesson identify the values that guide our why. 

My why is summed it in a few essential core values that I am sharing with you toda…

The name of the game is customer care. More than educating your clients as course creators and membership hosts you want to nurture your client relationships. Connecting with your clients on a personal level means you are more likely to understand their problems and how to resolve them; giving them a sense of security. When it comes to membership sites security leads to longevity... customer retention, and most important client Satisfaction. 

Here are some sure-fire ways to break that trust…

What is the easiest quickest way to share your most popular URLs on social media these days? Bit.ly  and LinkTr.ee of course!

You've spent time learning and mastering your skills and are now an expert in your field. Clients come to you to work with YOU! You are committed to serving those clients the best way possible and that means depending on SaaS (Software as a Service). But how do you know the software you are using is the right fit for your business? How do you know that you aren't spending thousands of dollars on software that is actually turning clients away because it doesn't provide a great user experience? Or…

Have you heard of the 1-minute rule?

The 1-minute rule is attributed to Gretchen Rubin and says If a task can be completed in one minute or less, it should be done immediately.

This rule is a guiding principle in everything I do, and honestly, it should be the guiding principle for any business out there. 

Far too often we as humans find ourselves feeling stuck and overwhelmed. As achievers and doers in the western world, we make long to-do lists. We exert a lot of energy on the things we wan…
