Note to Self: You Matter!
This really is a note to self, and if this is all TMI, just feel free to move along. But if I’m up to my neck in this issue, many of you may be as well. I’m a hard-charging kind of gal. Type A for sure. But I’ve had to completely reframe that in the […]
Know Your Numbers
I know. It feels like hopping on the scale. That dreaded moment that many women agonize over (me too!) when they get on the scale to check their weight. Time’s up! Was I good, or bad? Is there shame or self-doubt? Jubilation? Body image aside, we need to get over that fear regarding our businesses. […]

Put your own oxygen mask on first
Public Service Announcement: It’s your business and it’s your life. The best place to start is by designing your business to fit you personally.

From Chaos to Clarity – My Story
Businesses evolve and grow, and mine is no exception. I had been providing Facebook Ad Strategy and implementation up until a few months ago. (Why look; my last blog post and newsletter was in June of 2017! Not good.) But I began to realize this business model just was not working for me. The […]
How to Get Over the Fear of Creating Videos
Today we are talking about video and specifically how to get over your fear of being on camera. We have been talking in the past few weeks about how important video is not only in Facebook Ads but in your business in general. But many women are not brave about hopping in front of the […]
