Let's Get Bossy

As we head into Summer it’s so important that we have a plan! We want to make sure we have time to spend with our kiddos, we want to enjoy the summer, and we also want to keep our business momentum and not let it fall off because we are living life. The goal is to be able to live life AND build our business. To scale back your schedule while scaling up your profit! And the best way to make this happen is by creating the dang plan! Will the plan always stick? Nope. Should we create it anyway? Yep! Is it ok to pivot the plan? 100%! 

 I do sort of feel like I’ve cracked the code on my Summer strategy and have a really good plan in place. I could not feel better heading into this hectic Season! And this month I'm dedicated to sharing all my secrets so you can scale through the Summer with me. Plus make the irreplaceable memories with your kids, plus plus have some time for YOU! Sound too good to be true? It's not, promise. It just takes some out of the box thinking, creative planning, and support. I've got my plan, and I'm happy to walk you through it!

Key Points From This Episode:

-Recap of creating, planning, and hosting a live Networking Event in my Community

-My attraction strategy

-How to lean on community & collars to grow this Summer

-Repurposing and how it can save you time and make you money

This is just a piece of my Summer Profit Plan and I’m going to keep sharing this month so we can scale together! But if you want to chat more about this, have questions, or want to bounce ideas off me send me a message with the word “SUMMER” and I’ll send you a link to my calendar. I want to help you have the best Summer ever! 

Why not create an action plan for your profit NOW so that you can relax and enjoy your Summer with the family, not with your laptop.

I'm opening up my calendar to help you design a plan to make money while having fun with your family this Summer.

Since we are talking a lot about mental health this month, I wanted to share something that really affects mine… having a routine!!! And with any routine, it’s going to be a series of habits (good and bad) that we do over and over again. But the trick is creating a great routine, full of good habits, that serves you, your schedule, and your goals! Let’s talk about how! 

You might be thinking that you don’t have or need a routine, and I’m going to stop you right here. If you are a human, you need a routine. We thrive off of it. Even if it’s not a super structured line by line do this at this time style, implementing some type of routine is one thing I will always say you must have. In fact, you already have one… whether you realize it or not. Which is why this is so powerful. You may not think you need a routine but you’re actually sitting in a routine at this very moment that is actually making your life hearder! 

So, let’s start here…

To get started try this formula:

Track Your Good Habits

Track Your Bad Habits

List Your Desired Habits

Then, as you create your routine:

Your Schedule - Is it working for you?

How Can You Embody Your Idols

Keep It Simple

Routines have been the best and the worst parts of my life, both personal and business. How have your routines impacted you?

Why not create an action plan for your profit NOW so that you can relax and enjoy your Summer with the family, not with your laptop.

I'm opening up my calendar to help you design a plan to make money while having fun with your family this Summer.

Can we talk about identity for a moment here? Specifically for moms who are struggling to find theirs anyway, but then have to double down on that in business? In a world that tells us to work like we don’t have kids, be a mom like we don’t work, and do it all while looking great in a fit body with a Pinterest perfect house. I don’t want to get on a tangent here, but COME ON….First of all, let’s release all of THAT. Figuring out your identity as a human is hard enough once you become a mom. And then it changes, over and over again as your kids grow. Navigating your changing identity as a mom with a business and brand to tend to is even harder! So, today we are going to chat in some ways to make it a little bit easier! 

Your Foundation 

Lean Into Your Experiences 

Leverage Your Unique Strengths 

Create Your Personal Brand

Vulnerability 

How do you embrace your identity as a mom business owner?

Why not create an action plan for your profit NOW so that you can relax and enjoy your Summer with the family, not with your laptop.

Being a mom is freaking awesome! It’s hard, but it’s freaking awesome! We get to be home with our kids AND grow and scale a business. What… like, do you ever just take time to sit in how amazing this is? If you’re a mom and an entrepreneur, chances are you started your business so you can spend more time at home with your babies. BUT, with more time at home with your babies also comes more time at home with your laptop, your phone, your IG, your email… literally your entire business at your fingertips with all the instant gratification and demands you can imagine. Ya feel me? And everywhere you look you’re seeing someone doing something new. Launching the next “time saving” resource, or must have “secrets to scaling”, or that next thing that you just have to do “real quick” to help you get to where you want to be in your business. It can be overwhelming, and it can make it really damn hard to stay present! So, I’ve rounded up a list of some of my favorite resources ACTUALLY make life as a mom easier! This have saved me from the rabbit hole of “one more thing” in the last few months: 

Crush The Rush Planner 

Alexa (set timers)

Chat GPT

Flodesk

Canva

Private Podcasts 

BLAB HQ 

So, what are your favorite resources to scale as a mom entrepreneur?

It’s our Month Mamas! Happy May, Happy Mother’s Day, Happy MOTHER’S MONTH!! We love this time of year on the show, and I’m very excited for all the great things to come this month. Do we have big plans for Mother’s Day this year? I’m looking forward to celebrating for the first time as a mom of two. Last year I was hugely pregnant and everything was exhausting and hard. This year I’m adapting to the role of mom of two, while working really hard on growing my business, and everything is still exhausting and hard… but beautiful! I mention my business here because I want to spend some time in this episode talking about “scaling through the seasons” … something that I’ve been dedicating a lot of my focus on personally and in my business this year. Today we talk about what that means and how I do it!

Key Points From This Episode:

The importance of mental health as a mom entrepreneur

Why investing in yourself and your business is so important

How to scale back your schedule without scaling back your profit

Why not create an action plan for your profit NOW so that you can relax and enjoy your Summer with the family, not with your laptop.

This month we are going to be talking A LOT about our mental health…why? Because we should be anyway, but also because May is Maternal Mental Health Month. If you’ve  listened to the show you know that we have an entire mental health segment on our full length episodes, and I am a strong believer in working hard to start and keep the conversation going around mental health, alway. And, believe it or not, mental health and entrepreneurship actually impact each other more than we realize. So, today we are going to talk about it! Yes, these episodes are business focused, but let me tell you… if your mental health isn’t in a good place, your business won’t be either! 

The Connection- Think about the times in your life when you’re feeling like a total badass…. I’ll give you a second (I get it, it can be hard to give ourselves credit sometimes)... Now when you think of these times, you’re probably feeling in your flow. Creatively, with productivity, your mindset is in a place of gratitude… and when all of these things are on point, you’re in a great place to receive growth, opportunity, and money coming in from your business. If you haven’t noticed, I’ve become a little more woo these days, but I’m telling ya’, this stuff is important! 

On the other end of this, think about the times where you’re feeling like a total piece of garbage (personal)... even if you're showing up and doing all of the things, when you’re feeling down and life is really hard, you can work work work, but business is also going to feel really hard. And I can sit here and tell you this because I KNOW THIS. FOR A FACT. FROM MY OWN EXPERIENCE! And it is FRUSTRATING! 

So, if your mental health is so directly attached to the health of your business, what can you do to help it? Because you know it, I know it, even your dog knows it… it isn’t all sunshine and rainbows around here all the time, no matter how hard we try. There WILL be times where we are struggling in the mental health department, and we don’t want our business to go down with us in those moments. Here’s what I’ve found to help keep things afloat when my mental health needs a life raft:

Implement Routines

Plan Your Schedule

Organization

Limit Screen Time

Find Supportive Community

Embrace Vulnerability

This is such a big topic, and I want you to know that if you are suffering, you are not alone. If you need a safe space and a listening ear, send me a message. I’m here for you! Business is hard, and when things don’t go as planned the hits can feel devastating, but I see you. I’m proud of you. You are doing enough, and you are right where you are meant to be in this moment. Keep going! You’re strong. You’ve got this!

Why not create an action plan for your profit NOW so that you can relax and enjoy your Summer with the family, not with your laptop. I'm opening up my calendar to help you design a plan to make money while having fun with your family this Summer.
