084: Why Working "Hard" is Overrated Sep 06, 2018

Show notes

I despise all of those memes that encourage biz owners to work hard and hustle until they drop. I know, it's so easy for us creative entrepreneurs to become workaholics because we LOVE what we do and because it doesn't feel like work at first! But it's not okay to sustain the level of busyness and "hard work" that will lead to burnout and not allow you to lead a successful, balanced life. I want to share how you can do the "smart work" in your business. This means how you can work LESS hours with magnified results. Smart workers know where and how to focus their time, what relationships to utilize and how to automate systems. Get out a pen and piece of paper... this podcast is going to change your thinking and help you with some very practical tips and shortcuts.

Show notes

Every day I coach creative business owners and I know their #1 challenge is that they just need more sales. It's simple. No matter the size of their social media following or email list. They want more sales. More revenue. More paying customers. And this may be your challenge too?

It may take you out of your comfort zone and it's going to require some time and effort from you.... but when the online sales start coming in, you will be so thankful! Listen in to this episode for my one BIG SALES SECRET!

My business totally took off once I hired my first business coach. I am living proof that biz coaches can make all the difference in your success. And working with coaches has completely changed the future of my business and thus changed my family's future. You already know that I am partial to business coaches and I am one myself, but I am not saying you have to join mine to be successful.

There are tons of options and I want to open your eyes to the possibilities and other industries and advice that could help you. Really, I just want to share with you several reasons WHY you should invest in your business by hiring a coach. I also know some significant times WHEN you need to hire a coach for your business. And since I've been around the block, I have a few pointers on what to look for when hiring and where to find this dream person. I hope you will listen to this podcast with an open mind and see why and how the right business group and coach could change your life.

081: How to Fight Discouragement Aug 15, 2018

Show notes

Discouragement happens to us all in life and business. It comes in seasons and leaves us feeling alone and full of doubt. Maybe you've asked yourself these questions ...

Is it always going to be this way?

Does what I'm doing even matter?

Is everyone against me?

Am I alone in this journey?

These are all completely normal feelings and thoughts. But it's KEY that you DO NOT let your discouragement stay and get stuck. I feel like it's my responsibility as a business mentor to help creative entrepreneurs who are struggling and feeling discouraged in their business. I have two really really good practical suggestions on how to fight discouragement. I use these tips myself and I know they work!

080: Bringing my Spouse Home from Corporate America Aug 08, 2018

Show notes

Three months ago, my husband resigned from Corporate America to work with me at home after my creative online business exploded. It is really quite unconventional and we're getting so many questions about our new work situation. So let's go into Mr. Magic's (aka Jason's) 90-day Review to see how he's doing, what he's doing and answer all of my follower's questions about what it's like having him at home and how we handled all of those insurance and retirement things. And what's next in his future!

And to be honest it was never our master plan to be a husband-wife work-from-home team. If you're asking if it makes sense for you? Listen in.

Spoiler Alert: Jason received no raise and no bonus! But he's doing fantastic! lol
