Up In My Business

Episode 133: Yappin' and Word of the Year Check-In


Listen Later

Summary
In this episode, I bounce around a variety of personal and business updates while also checking in on my Word of the Year: “Intentional.” I share my thoughts on sponsorships and the value of brands who work with small creators, my appreciation for detailed clothing reviews, and how my iPad has been a great addition to my business. I also dive into conversations about focusing on the value of your own services instead of calling out others, the challenge of selling services that require client work and commitment, and a deep reflection on my intentional living goals this year. I end with a candid update on how I’ve done so far with my intentional list, including therapy, coaching, schedule changes, and upcoming allergy testing.

  • Appreciation for detailed clothing reviews and the struggle of finding well-fitting clothes
  • Using my iPad for business, client calls, and personal creative downtime with coloring apps
