  • Business BLAB - Finding Your Unique Balance
    Ok boss ladies, I wanted to take some time this week to address the buzz around the word “balance”. I use this word A LOT… in my content, in my programs, and even the book we are writing that has a major focus on creating balance around work and parenthood. This word is quickly becoming a no-no and it’s time that we get clear on what this word really means… because we really do want and need balance in our lives… it just may not be what we think it is! I feel like we are seeing this word all over the place, and it shouldn't have to be a thing that causes us to cringe. We have the power to take control of this word and create the kind of “balance” that really works for our life! So, let’s get clear on how we can strive towards finding our unique balance and truly relax into our lives!
    👍Ditch the shoulds
    👍Take a look at your life now
    👍Set priorities and boundaries
    👍Be flexible
    So there you have! I challenge you to take on some of these tips and starting taking control of what balance means in your life. We all want balance, but it’s up to us to decide what that actually means to us. It doesn't have to be a bad word, because when you find your unique balance, life can be really beautiful.
    I want to hear from you! Do you feel like you have balance in your life? What does the word balance mean to you? Send me an email at [email protected] and let me know!

    • Mother's Day Special- Birth Stories from Boss Mamas

      Happy Mother's Day, Boss Ladies! The journey to Motherhood is unique for us all. Some enter parenthood through childbirth, some through marriage or adoption or fostering or any number of special ways. Making the commitment to care for another person is one of the greatest jobs we will ever have. 

      To honor our fellow Boss Mamas, we reached out to our community and had 3 incredible women share their birth stories with us. Each one is different, each one is special, and we can't thank them enough for opening up and sharing their stories with us. There are some high highs, and some scary, low lows. Join us in appreciating the beauty in each of these Mamas' experiences, and let's all take a moment to appreciate the place we are today, and the journey it took us to get here. 

      Special thanks to these incredible Boss Ladies for sharing their stories with us!

    • Business BLAB - Why You Need an Email List
      If you’ve been around the biz block you might be hearing people talking up email marketing...like a ton!
      For the longest time I turned my nose up to email marketing thinking it was old, outdated, or just not “for me”... but the truth is, it’s the only thing that is really “for us”. I’m sure you all know this, but we don’t own our social media followers. Sure, it feels like the are “ours” because they choose to follow our pages, but the cold hard truth is that if social media goes away…. So would most of our businesses. And, another cold hard truth is…. You probably aren’t really “selling” as much on social as you think you are.
      So, I decided to get over myself and make the leap into email marketing. Now, be forewarned, I am by no means an expert on this. In fact, I’m a complete newbie… and a lot of you may know this already… but for those who are thinking about dipping your toes in, I’m going to share some of the tips I’ve found so far. There will likely be a part two once I learn more!
      📧 Find a platform and go all in
      📧Make sure your emails are branded to you
      📧Use you voice
      📧Create a lead magnet
      📧Create workflows and tags for people
      📧Stay consistent, but don’t be annoying
      📧Use your emails as a way to elaborate on your social content
      📧Always add a CTA
      📧Give them a reason to come back!

    • Business BLAB- Getting to Know Your Personal Brand

      Ah, the art of a personal brand!

      Making the decision to build your business around who you are, and leveraging the personal and emotional side of business.

      I think you all know me by now, and you may be sick of me talking about the brand YOU…. but this is really what it’s all about! Being WHO you are! Because guess what? You already have a personal brand, whether you know it or not, so you might as well be intentional with how you work it! Here are a few of my favorite tips on how to take your personal brand and create the YOU we have all been waiting for!

      Be kind to yourself

      Take care of YOU so you can take care of your brand

      Be a human

      Incorporate the things you like into your business

      Own your stuff

      I could go on all day, but I will leave you with these to get started. There are studies on studies that show that being a human being and showcasing your personal brand will bring you more success! People will choose the person they know, like, and trust, and have things in common with over someone they don’t… even if the name is bigger… even if the prices are better… So, tell me… what does your personal brand say about you? Is it showing who you are? Are you showing up intentionally?... or just letting it happen!
