Procrastination. Perfectionism. Burning Bridges. Not showing up. There’s a lot of talk about self-sabotage in the entrepreneurial world… and what to do when you realize you’re self-sabotaging. Typically, you’re asked to look at what you may be afraid of… to identify WHY you may be AFRAID of ACHIEVING the exact goal you’re pursuing. Worthy pursuits,

Exposing The Ultimate Bait & Switch For Entrepreneurs
The first event/book I ever wrote (and self-published using a local printer and those plastic rings you can make books with and sold ONLY at my “events” by the same name) was: Work Your Own Way. That was my message. The title of my book. The name of my event. And my tagline. I wanted

Black Gold: Women Entrepreneurs Who See What’s Not There
This is for those with huge dreams. Those that dare aim for the “impossible.” Those who may be called “dreamers” by their families (and friends). This is for those women — like me — who demonstrate the sheer AUDACITY of believing and betting (always) on themselves. This is for those who have (perhaps in the

6 Steps to Making More Money: Less Stress, Hustle and Hurry
Today, ironically during my first yoga class in YEARS, a new money goal literally popped into my head. My new monthly money goal is $20K higher PER MONTH than the one I’d previously been reaching for, and as I sat with that for a moment, I realized something. I don’t do things TODAY that are

Women Entrepreneurs: Here’s How to Find a New Gear
Yesterday, I went on an afternoon “jog” with two of my kids. Each of us walked out the door with our own music in our ears… ready to take on the dirt road. Within SECONDS (literally) they left me in their dust. Not that it was a race… of course… But still… So, despite being

When to Copy Someone Else and When to Stay Original
I’ll never forget — way before any of my online marketing/blogging/etc. would have been worth copying — finding a woman who had (word for word) copied my entire website. EVEN THE ABOUT ME PAGE. She was from my area, and while I didn’t know her, I reached out to her to discuss the, um, “situation.”

BUSINESS: A LOVE STORY
I see a lot of posts about LOVE these days. Dating. SOULmate -seeking. A concerted, hardcore effort to find “the ONE,” All from people who have already found “the one” — only to realize that he (or she) WASN’T “the one” after all. And so they leave… and soldier on… ever more determined to find

This is for all the Seriously Driven Women Entrepreneurs
…WHO ARE “TOO MUCH.” The reality of being “too much,” the “punishment” for the crime of being “too much” — especially for women — is a deep-in-your-bones loneliness… Most of us learn this early. Stand out — in any way — and be shunned. Rejected. Ousted. This is something we must come to terms with
