The truth is, your money reality starts with how you see yourself. When you feel completely confident in yourself and what you're putting out into the world (aka your business), you can more easily attract the exchanges (aka the money) that you desire... but when you feel scarce, when you worry, or when you're in a controlling or doggy paddling energy, you could easily be blocking your money desires from connecting with you.

In this episode, MK breaks down how you can check in on your money mindset in order to attract allllll the abundance you desire in your business :)

THE UNFILTERED TRUTH OF BUILDING A THRIVING SMALL BIZ: THE PROCESS WITH SHANNON RUSSELL

In this episode, I sit down with my friend Shannon, the inspiring owner behind LUX Wellness, her thriving IV therapy business. We’re diving into her unconventional journey from the corporate world to becoming her own boss, touching on topics like navigating success, growing on TikTok + being vulnerable on social media, going from inconsistent financials to $13K months, being a woman in business, buying out business partners and the energetics behind it, and her personal journey towards alignment in life and business. 

We get real with the numbers behind LUX Wellness, giving insight to real transparency into the realities of entrepreneurship.

This episode is a must-listen for any woman who's building a business or considering taking the leap. Shannon's authentic story and actionable insights are a refreshing dose of reality as we demystify the process of small business growth and empower you to thrive on your own terms.

Distilling Shannon's experience into actionable steps, this episode tells you how to create business alignment with your soul-self through practical actions.

SHANNONS TIKTOK: @NURSE_SHANN

In this episode, I'm diving into what it really means to let yourself be truly seen as the leader of your brand and the bada** business owner that you are. Without letting yourself be seen, you aren't letting your authenticity SHINE, and that is holding you back in business growth. When you hold back (even subconsciously), there are gaps. And when there are gaps, there is confusion. But when there is clarity, there is business growth. Letting your audience SEE you and SEE your business allows them clarity for what you're about. Listen through to hear how this relates to you and your specific biz.

Ready to take our relationship to the next level? ME TOO! Check out my 1:1 Vision Intensive here for a one-off, 90 minute 1:1 coaching call with me. I can't wait.

This episode is a reset. Start your week with a few minutes of breathing, visualizing, and being -- so that you (and your business) has the space to receive. Take a little bit to be still for yourself, I promise your business will run better because of it :)
