Let’s be real, Black Friday is not what it used to be. Long gone are the days of getting up at 4 am to go to Kohls and stand in line for an hour in the freezing cold for a $10 fleece blanket…
It’s just not the same. BUT, what if we could go into Thanksgiving with our holiday spending plan in place. Imagine opting-out of Black Friday and going to the Christmas tree farm instead. Can we just ask ourselves… What do we want our holiday season to look like, and how can we align our gift giving, and our spending to make our holiday vision come to life?
Whether you have a little or a lot to spend, I believe the key to joyful gift giving is going in with a plan and a budget for giving. Tune in for my 7-step process for a stress-free holiday season so sweet even your bank account will feel merry & bright.

Have you ever had a moment in life or business when something just felt… off? It wasn’t too long into Rachael’s photography business that she realized the work she was doing wasn’t quite serving her or her clients in the way she imagined. In the midst of a global pandemic is as good a time as any to start asking the hard (or should I say the right) questions… and today’s guest did just that.
What began as a “becoming Rach” board on Pinterest turned into a business pivot, offer change, and new trajectory …
Is a life and business you love possible? Here’s how this entrepreneur designed both and how she’s working to help others do the same.
Today is a sweet treat as I have one of my past Blueprint Model students, Rachael Leigh, on the show!
