How I Built a Million-Dollar Digital Product Empire

The most important thing to me in my business is to help my clients achieve their goals. Today, I want to break down what it took to build my multi-million dollar product empire and give you a blueprint of how I did it so that you can get started and launch your very own digital product. In 2016, I got caught in a five-car pile-up and suffered a traumatic brain injury that drastically changed my life. It taught me that my business was solely dependent on me and this was a massive wake-up call!

The Power of Pause & How to Leverage it to Accelerate Your Online Business

Today we are digging into what it really takes to reinvigorate yourself. When I am feeling creative resistance, I have a tendency to try and push through – creating an unnecessary environment of stress. When you really slow down, you have the opportunity to gain a new perspective. I like to teach you through my own experiences so I wanted to put myself in my client's shoes. At the end of last year and the beginning of this year, I found that my clients were really resistant to showing up online and I started questioning why. I realized that the resistance largely stemmed from the fear that my clients once understood social media and now no longer do!
