Heyyyy, it's been a minute. 🙈 This episode has taken a few attempts to record without getting a bit emotional. But this is a good one. So where have I been?

Well, I took a five-ish month paid sabbatical — it was both amazing and challenging, and in this episode, I’ll unpack all the details. Growth mode is on pause and let’s just say, life had other plans that shifted my sabbatical focus plans. But, as always, things worked out, and now I have a whole new vision for it. ✨

These last few months have been a rollercoaster of highs, lows, and both at the same time. Taylor and I have navigated some of the wildest moments of our life together. Through it all, I practiced what I preach: building a life-first business that can adapt when life needs more of you. And let me tell you, life needed a lot of me these past five months. 😮‍💨 I stepped back from the day-to-day hustle so I wouldn’t miss out on healing and precious life moments. Now, I’m excited to share the good, the not-so-good, and everything in between. Grab a cup of herbal tea and let’s gooooo. 🫖🤭🎧

• An unexpected & very traumatic hospital visit

Why do we overdo it? Before diving into More Life, we must uncover the root cause of overdoing because overdoing it in life leads to desiring do overs. The problem with overdoing it and being highly ambitious is there can be a dark side to it... Are you a high achiever or a high performer? Let's get into the difference of the two, why we inherently overdo it in life, and what we may lose when we are caught in the chase.

Are you addicted to busyness? Then this one's for you. 😮‍💨

At one point, so was I, and truthfully, sometimes I feel myself slipping back into old habits, but then I'm reminded to start chasing my own version of success rather than societies.

I love to check off boxes (tune in to hear them all) but I quickly realized that some of those boxes weren't mine to check and all it was doing was sending me into mental, emotional, and physical burnout. But who am I if I'm not achieving & checking off more boxes?

This is the High-Achiever's Dilemma...

Shhhh don’t let Instagram find out… You don't need social media for your business. 🫢

In this episode I’m getting real + tough lovey, because, forget what you were told, you don't need to market your business with social media. You don’t need social media to grow your business.

THE HIGHLIGHTS:

• Is Instagram really reliable?
• Building a nervous system friendly business
• Social media conversions over the years
• Lifespan of social content
• Why I'm choosing to build a sustainable business

Many of my clients say things like “I have to be on social media” no, no you don’t! There are other ways...

In fact, here are two ways to grow your business without social media:

1. Find what’s already working and what has worked for you and double, triple down on that strategy.
2. Utilize other avenues like podcast guesting, networking, longer form content on search engines like YouTube, Pinterest, blogging, getting PR / article contribution, referral strategy, speaking, text community, etc. then figure out how you show up best & what you like best: audio, in person, writing, video, etc. then reverse engineer the options for that.

There are plenty of more ways to grow your business without social media that I'll be going over in my upcoming workshop on Wednesday, March 6 from 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM. I'll be going over 10+ ways to grow with exact how-to's, templates, and more. Don't miss it!
