After 17 years of leading teams with multiple 5- and 6-figure volume months, I’ve learned some lessons the hard way. In this episode of MotivatedAF by AskAnja, I’m sharing the 5 things I would do differently if I could go back.

From saying yes to too many Zooms, to working other people’s businesses instead of focusing on my own, to investing in every course instead of intentional action—these are the mistakes that cost me time, energy, and growth.

More importantly, I’ll share what I’d do instead:
✨ Take intentional action on my personal business
✨ Share with more people consistently
✨ Invest smarter in my own growth
✨ Protect my energy with rest and balance
✨ Be present with family, friends, and myself

If you’ve ever felt stretched thin, overcommitted, or unsure where to focus, this episode will help you reset and realign.

👉 Tune in, take notes, and let’s build your business and your life with purpose.

Have you ever said or thought: I used to do that... why did I stop doing that? In the last 5 years I have found that there are things that we have seemed to have "forgotten" or just stopped doing. We seem to have stopped treating others like we want to be treated; you know the Golden Rule of "do unto others..." Yep! THAT ONE! Kindergarten Rules like waiting our turn, apologizing if we wrong someone, speaking as we pass or at least making eye contact and smiling... human connection. Rituals of #selfcare #gratitude #personaldevelopment #healthyhabits and other things like this contribute to positive mindset and #journaling can be a very helpful tool in this journey. As a teacher and LPC who utilized Cognitive Behaviorial Therapy when working with my clients I highly recommend #mindset work in processing past and current events and setting goals for the future. I am excited to bring you this first of a series of journals from #AskAnja. Reach out here or on social to be the first on the list to get yours today. When you don't know what to do... you know what to do. ASKANJA <3 Thank you for following, sharing, and being an #Alister. with <3 A~

My G-Ma had a mantra that she always said and I adopted whenever things went wrong or just not the way we expected: We Have a STORY! When we learn to expect the unexpected we will actually be happier. It is in the EXPECTING things to go a certain way or perfectly that we set ourselves up to suffer according to Eckhart Tolle. I agree. I have been processing my own disappointments, suffering, depression, anxiety, and STORIES the last two weeks. I found that I have surrounded myself with THINGS and each one has a story... just like US. It is up to us to SHARE our stories and it is important that we share them...people are inspired and #motivatedaf by them!! We can use #Journaling (check out mine on Amazon https://a.co/d/ibUCtUU ) and Celebrating Wins to process the Ups and Downs of Life and remember who the hell we are so we can show up for ourselves and others. Listen in and let me know if YOU do your own #walloffame and remember when you don't know what to do... you know what to do #AskAnja. <3

Ironically the morning that I got clarity and peace from the wrongful termination/personal attack from 2 years ago that same company CLOSED "without notice." Today they announced they are "reconfiguring" and will sell products and the person in my upline that betrayed me is literally saying it's not true even though customers got emails. I hope people will finally stop believing her lies. This episode I'm telling part of my truth as I've learned it is NECESSARY to be in ALIGNMENT and to be my AUTHENTIC SELF. OH... and YES.... the book IS COMING!! Learn what I am excited for on the eve of Ozzy and I getting the keys to our new apartment and starting another chapter. I feel FREE of proving my worth and myself to ME or anyone else. I am fully ready to help others not settle and be successful without sacrificing EVERYTHING. Soooo when you don't know what to do.. you know what to do.. #AskAnja <3

Have you ever felt like something would just be here forever or kind of taken it for granted? Have you ever found you regret that later and wish you had been more present and/or leveraged an opportunity more while you had it? I know I HAVE!! There are so many things in life that this can pertain to and social media is DEFINITELY one of those. Let's talk about it and how #dothedangthangcoaching with @nicolegurney and I can help... Let's start with an audit of where you currently are! I can't wait to connect because when you don't know what to do.. you know what to do #AskAnja

You are in for a TREAT! Debbie is a dear friend, business partner, and colleague. We have known each other 3 years now and she actually found me watching an interview much like this! I was then referred to her by another coach to do an audit for her and for us to start coaching her. We became fast FRIENDS and have worked together and done LIFE together since that day. This is one of the true JOYS of this industry and being an entrepreneur. I wouldn't have ever met Debbie otherwise and I cannot imagine my life without her.. I don't want to! Join us as I share a few nuggets I haven't ever shared about my journey and our journey. We get REAL about life and business. We also talk about why YOU will want to do a business AUDIT now and often. You know that when you don't know what to do.. just #AskAnja. Let's #dothedangthang.

Never in history have we been more "connected" than we are currently through technology and all the apps and social media platforms at our finger tips. However, never have we felt so alone. I was feeling this and thought it was because I am single and an empty nester and work from home. However, I shared this feeling with my 22 year old son and his 20 year old girlfriend and guess what?! They feel the same way! Then I looked it up and Sherry Turkle has A LOT to say about the subject of being ALONE TOGETHER. I would love to connect and hear if you are feeling this too and what you think. Let's talk about it... #AskAnja

It's been a debate for some time.. to Niche or Not to Niche.. it's been the question! The answer is YAAAS!!! It's about damn time to let your audience KNOW: Who you are, What you do, and Who you serve. Literally it's time for a PSA on your profile, plan your clear FUNNEL, NICHE DOWN, and SHOW UP. Are you ready to NICHE BEEESH?? lol Because when you don't know what to do... you #AskAnja. Nicole Gurney with #RebelSoul and I make #DoTheDangThangCoaching and we've got YOU. <3
