read moreSlowing Down So That You Can Gain Momentum
Too busy working IN your business to slow down and work ON it? Hell, that's like flying down the highway at mock speed with no time to stop for gas. Doesn't sound very productive when I put it that way, does it? I know, I know, it goes completely against the grain of...
read moreStuck on the Spinning Cycle
'I am SO done with the amount of work I'm doing'. Ever been there? Said that? FELT that? Most entrepreneurs have at some point in their business. It's not a fun space to be in. Especially when all the hours you're putting in aren't moving the dial on your business....

Procrastination. Have you ever had days where you just can’t seem to get out of your own way? You’ve got a mile long to do list (one that you keep adding to each day, ugh), but everything else seems so much more important to get to instead of the things that actually...

read moreMotivational Mindset to Move from Simple to Done

read moreWork/Life Balance: Must it Remain Elusive?
A work/life balance is something many of my private coaching clients strive for. Work/Life balance—it’s tricky. Actually, I’d say it’s bullshit if I’m being completely honest. The concept of balance, in general, is ok, but balance isn’t always 50/50; in fact, it...
