Your knowledge is your currency! For years I feared that what I was doing wasn’t real business and I felt like I had to prove myself.

The world of traditional business is rapidly changing and you are building an online business at the beginning of the new digital frontier. Of course it’s hard to feel like an expert when everything is just beginning.

I Quit Cold Turkey

This is the first time I’ve done an episode like this– it’s much shorter than usual because I want you to simply listen, reflect, and then take action TODAY.

Going Back to Work After Chaos: Returning to Business as Usual

If you are ever torn between life and business, you do not need permission to choose YOU! When you build your business with intention, it will work for you, even when life surprises you. It’s more than okay to prioritize yourself over your business with zero guilt. A few months ago, I got a call saying that my dad had a stroke. The following weeks unfolded so dramatically as his condition went from bad to worse. It became very clear that this wasn’t just a typical stroke. Eventually, we found out he has a very rare autoimmune disease that caused him to require around-the-clock care all of a sudden. I was simply not prepared for this. Keep in mind, during all of this, my business still had to keep running.
