I've never been super big on resolutions. It's so hard to know who you're going to be in a year and for so many, we over commit and don't plan things out accordingly to actually accomplish our goals.
A few years ago, though, I stumbled upon this idea of word of the year. How you go about finding/choosing your word of the year is different for everyone, but it essentially takes the place of a resolution. Rather, it's the this idea that you have a word or phrase that helps move you through the year.
In this episode, I'm sharing with you:
how I go about finding my word of the year each year
my words of the year from 2023
my words of the year for 2024
As always, I'd love for you to take a few minutes and give this podcast a rating and review! They're such an important part of helping me spread the word to more and more service providers who want to create consistent income in their businesses.

When one year closes and leads into another year, it's nearly impossible to not think about what went well and what didn't go well with the previous year.
The further on into my personal development journey I've gone, I've realized how much value there really is in not just reflecting on what you want to do differently, but what went well and what you want to keep doing!
In this episode, I'm sharing just that with you- what went well this year that I am going to keep doing and what I don't want to keep doing as we transition into a new year!
I'm sharing with you:
1. the couple of things I'm taking with me
2. the couple of things I'm leaving behind in 2023
3. some final thoughts around general lessons I've learned
As always, I'd love for you to take a few minutes and give this podcast a rating and review! They're such an important part of helping me spread the word to more and more service providers who want to create consistent income in their businesses.

We are here- those last couple of episodes of every single business related podcast where we talk about goal setting. Listen, I love goal setting as much as the next person, and if we don't take a minute to reflect on what happened (and not just all the stuff that didn't go the way we planned), it's hard to make goals that actually make sense.
In this episode, I'm sharing with you:
the importance of reflecting before you goal set
what the focus on during your reflection and the questions to ask yourself
how I can support you with making 2024 whatever you plan to make of it!
Sign up for the workshop here!
Ready to make 2024 a total kickass? I have put together a bundle just for you to help answer any questions of "how the heck do I make 2024 a kickass year?" Check it out here.

I hate it when gurus talk about the parts of their lives that didn't go well... it just feels like it happened so long ago that they really can't relate. I also hate when all the podcasters talk about their year in review and don't really hit on the biggest failures and lessons they've learned.
I am a firm believer that your failures teach you so much and I'm so excited to share my biggest failure with you and what it means about me!
Tune in to hear:
the origin story of my membership
why I ultimately decided to take the plunge and start the membership
why I decided to close the membership and what happened next
Today is the last day to join the last round the 3 Day Training Series of 2023. Will you be there?

In my most recent ask for listener requests, the topic of working at home with kids at home came up. And I'm so glad it did. My take on working from home with kids is somewhat of a hot take- it's probably not what you think and whether or not you choose to do it like I do, I think you'll definitely walk away with some new insights!
In this episode:
I share with you the mistakes I've made while working with kids at home
some quick tips for working while you have kids at home
what my current work schedule looks like and why
Again, my goal is not to convince you that my way is the only way, but rather to help you get to a place where you feel comfortable with the choices you make while working with kids at home!
