As business owners, we live in a world where we are constantly bombarded with messages of success.  Whether that's messages about how we aren’t living up to other people’s successes -- feeling like we're somehow “behind” or “not where we wanted to be” --  or maybe we're just learning how to navigate through a slower season (and not make it mean something about ourselves as a human being). Whatever the case, we're constantly learning new ways of how to navigate through life while also growing a business. 

That's why in today's episode, we're gonna get a little unscripted. We're having a really honest and raw conversation about navigating through how to keep growing a business when it feels tough. 

Some of the things we're chatting through are:

• Normalizing that slow seasons are necessary and that we don't always have to feel like we're constantly moving full speed ahead (and actually being okay with "free time" and not needing to be all consumed in our work)
• Getting really deep into our why, purpose and our mission (and why they should be detached from our business goals)
• Learning how to let go of things that aren't serving us or in alignment with our mission anymore (regardless of how much time/energy has been poured into them)

If you've felt like business has felt a little tough, or that you've lost some of the excitement or momentum along the way -- I'm really excited to have this conversation with you. 

Also, if you have a business owner friend that would benefit from today's episode, I'd love for you to take a screenshot of this episode and send it to them in a DM or text message -- let's help each other feel seen, heard and cared for within our community.

If I had the opportunity to go back in time and change ONE thing about how I was growing my business -- I wish I would have put more time and effort into understanding the power behind SEO. For so long I put off learning about it because -- well -- it just felt like a really daunting subject. I didn't understand how it worked, and I didn't fully understand how much I was missing out on by putting it on the backburner.

As much as I love social media and hanging out there -- I've realized more and more as time goes on that it's not the most effective marketing strategy. Yes my people hang out there, but it's just not going to provide the same kind of return on investment that my website will. 

In today's episode I'm getting SUPER down to the details of SEO with our guest host, Victoria Rayburn. She's going to walk you through FIVE things that you can do right now that will help you get started on your journey to optimize your business's SEO on Google.

If you're anything like me and have felt overwhelmed by SEO, I highly encourage you to listen in to today's episode and also snag Victoria's free guides and resources below for some additional clarity and information on how to get started! Let's break this down into simple steps and help you get started on your new marketing strategy!

Have you been putting off your really big goals and projects?! If so there's a sneaky chance that perfectionism could be part of the reason why. In today's episode we're talking through all of the different ways that perfectionism can sneak into your goals and unconsciously hold you back from taking action. Some of the things we're chatting through are:

• How sometimes the things we're MOST excited about implementing are the things we put off the longest (let's talk through why we do this!)
• We fall into the idea that in the future we'll have "more time" to work on our big projects and ideas
• Sometimes the reason why we aren't taking action is because we aren't 100% clear on the exact steps on how to move forward

If you're in a season where you have big projects and goals  that you're working on OR if you feel like you've been putting off some big projects, I'm excited to dive into this conversation with you today!

If you have a business owner friend that would benefit from today's episode, I'd love for you to take a screenshot of this episode and send it to them in a DM or text message -- let's help each other remember to take action and make big moves in our business!

When was the last time you celebrated your actions instead of just focusing on the outcome those actions produced?! If you're anything like me, I (honestly) forget to do this as often as I should. It's so easy to get caught up in the outcomes, the metrics, the end goal that we FORGET that there's a HUMAN behind the scenes putting in a TON of work (hint; that human is you!)

In today's episode I'm sharing 4 *super* practical tips to help you not only set the systems in place that you need to track your progress, but also how we can continue to change our habits and our mindset around how we think about our goals!

As business owners, one of the biggest roadblocks that we face on a day to day basis is our mindset. How we think about ourselves, our capabilities, our values, our purpose.... all of these things blended together start to create a story that we believe about ourselves! In this episode today I'm chatting with Ben Hartley, founder of Style & Story wedding photography and host of the Six Figure Photography Podcast.

Today we're chatting through how we can, as business owners, commit to keep showing up for ourselves (both in our personal lives as well as in our business).  Some of our topics that we're chatting about include:

• Not letting our stories mean something about us
• Keeping standards high and expectations low to build discipline
• Who are you going to be in this stage of your life and business?
• ... and more!

I'm excited for you to listen in and to create a game plan for how you can show up as the business owner that you DREAM of being!
