We are all capable of changing our mindset. Sometimes we just need the tough love. The kick in the pants. The serious talkin' to. Yep, this is going to be one of those broadcasts. You know, the one where I tell you to step outside of your little bubble, stop blaming others about the less than desirable situation that you are in, and turn that negative energy inside out. Before you decide that I am not talking about you and decide to tune this one out, try doing a little test to see how self aware you really are. Is playing the … [Read more...]

Giving Thanks for Professionals and Poopy Diapers
Thanksgiving is a great time for reflection. It's been said that living in gratitude is the best way to abundance.

You have my permission to take a break from work
The most difficult part of being your own boss is knowing when to take a break. No one really intended for the holiday season to be stressful. So why does it become increasingly overwhelming each year? Let's dissect it. (It's my favorite thing to do!)

Chrismakah. Shismakah. It's all in good fun. Last night I hosted my annual Hanukkah … [Read more...]
The Spirit of Business and Parenting
It's spirituality that drives our visions and decisions. I was raised to be agnostic...to keep my mind open to all possibilities. It has served me well on most accounts, but there were times when I needed more. I needed to have...FAITH. Without faith, what else is there? Whether you believe in a higher power or not, you have a spirit within you that drives your ambitions, your visions for success, the way that you raise your children to have morals and values and the way that you respond to life's adversity. We love, we hate, we laugh, we … [Read more...]

Activate your Authenticity. I never really intended to be a social media coach, but one day I just happened to crack a code on a social media platform. This simple equation allowed me to drive traffic with just a quick click of a button. Before I knew it I had completely reinvented myself and I had a wait-list of clients who were willing to pay me top dollar to share my secret with them. The secret is that there really IS NO SECRET online or offline that you can't figure out for yourself. The simplicity of what I discovered is no different … [Read more...]
