We have mice. My husband found some mice in an outside storage shed a few weeks ago. And he set up traps and got most of them over the course of one gruesome month. The problem was that they had gotten at a ton of our things and we had to go through the cardboard… Continue reading Fighting the Trap of Unfulfilling Success

Happy New Year Moms!
Did anyone else do a countdown this year?!?! Just me?!?! No, I'm not crazy - I realize January 2020 is still four solid months out. But I'm not waiting 4 months to hit some goals and finish 2019 strong. And neither should any other parents out there. The day after Labor Day is the first… Continue reading Happy New Year Moms!
Defense Wins Championships, But Offense Wins Business
If you’re like anyone else in business, you face some competition. If you aren’t ready for it you might want to consider getting out of the ring. That being said, it’s important to stop focusing on what competition is doing and run your race. Play more offense instead of defense. This is kinda funny, but… Continue reading Defense Wins Championships, But Offense Wins Business
Why Rent Your Success When You Can Own?
When I was 18-24 years old, I sold books. An incredible experience I wouldn't change for the world. There were many things we all learned in that business bootcamp. That a positive mental attitude can make or break you. Things like, "your schedule is your lifeline." And one mantra that was taught to us is… Continue reading Why Rent Your Success When You Can Own?
You Can Be Independent, But Not Alone
My greatest fear is being alone. Coming up a close second (after the welfare of my family, of course) is giving up control of my life. I've been in complete control over my career, work hours, income, and destiny for 20 years! The last time I had been an employee was when I interned at… Continue reading You Can Be Independent, But Not Alone
My Shit Stinks and It Isn’t Together
I have to address the fact that my husband will be thoroughly annoyed with this title, but it's not wrong. It's not the most professional, either. But accurate. I've built a reputation of having my shit together. I mean, my whole job is helping people get clear on what they want, figure out what tools… Continue reading My Shit Stinks and It Isn’t Together
Girl, Stop Grinding
This blog post is going to be published on a Monday morning. The morning of the grind. When I was new in sales, I embraced the term. I was bad at everything, cried often, but wasn't a quitter. I bought into the mantra, "Do now what others won't so you can do later what others… Continue reading Girl, Stop Grinding
What Women Want at Work
As a woman in business for almost 20 years, and all of those being self-employed, I feel like I give a different perspective to my coaching clients. All I've ever really known is hustling and hunting for my paycheck, while learning how to make that more effective and flexible through the years. I haven't really… Continue reading What Women Want at Work
Creating a Vision Board for a Clear Future
What's the coolest thing you've heard someone achieve after putting it on their vision board?!? We're told how many successful people do them. And who hasn't seen "The Secret?" Oprah constantly preaches mindfulness and asking for what you want. We know they are powerful to do...but why do so few people put them together? Last… Continue reading Creating a Vision Board for a Clear Future
Breaking Through the Days You Want To Give Up
This topic is brought to you today by request. Every week I share a #basicbusinessbreak video on my social media accounts about basic business principles that successful people do. You can find them here. They are 30 seconds or less, and the point is simply to check-in with yourself. Are you doing them? Did you… Continue reading Breaking Through the Days You Want To Give Up
