We are well into December now and you are probably feeling the weight of expectations that the holiday season brings for your business. You can be tempted to do the big sale and ramp up efforts, but that might not be what you or your business needs in this season!

Should you strive for holiday hustle or holiday rest? Does your product or service even make sense to be on sale during the holidays?

Kristina and Maria are answering that and more on this holiday season episode of Community!

They also discuss overcoming comparison and imposter syndrome during the crowded holiday season, how to use the holidays to prepare for a successful new year, and nurturing community amidst the ‘salesyness’ of this time of year. 

When others zig, you can zag! Don’t fall victim to the pressure of a holiday sale if it isn’t aligned for you, continue nurturing your community, take rest, and when the right time comes, show up with full energy!

What are you trying in your business this holiday season? DM us, we’d love to connect with you!

In part 2 of this conversation with Kathy Samaan, CEO and Principal Designer of Samaan Design Group and SDG Construction. Kristina and Kathy are going deeper into the messy, uncomfortable parts of life and business, the "goop phase." You know, that awkward, sticky middle where nothing feels figured out, but that's where transformation happens. Kathy talks about how the goal shouldn’t be to run from the ‘goop’, but to embrace the goop, learn from it and become comfortable with some discomfort.

Kristina and Kathy also discuss the ripple effect of kind community, and how powerful referrals and acts of kinds can be in business.

Tune in to hear why Kristina and Kathy believe that staying authentic, open, and kind, even when it’s not reciprocated, is always the right move.

Do you feel like you’re in a ‘goop’ phase right now? You're not alone and this episode is for you!

In today’s episode of Community Kristina is joined by Kathy Samaan, CEO and Principal Designer of Samaan Design Group and SDG Construction. Kathy is a powerhouse entrepreneur and mother that Kristina met through Entreprenista. In their conversation they are covering the high and lows of her entrepreneurial journey, scaling two successful businesses.

Some key topics of the episode include; overcoming self-doubt, leading with creativity, radical responsibility and making tough decisions. Kathy also shares her experience breaking free from generational patterns, and why sometimes the best move amidst chaos is hitting pause to reassess.

Then they cover the complexities of mentorship; how to identify the right people to guide you, and why not everyone’s advice is worth following.

To succeed as an entrepreneur, especially on your own, it is key to identify good counsel and find alignment in a support system that truly serves your goals.
