  • Growth on the Way to Goals | Ep #24

    Hitting our goals isn't the only thing we do in the Bad B*tch Mastermind - we ask ourselves 'What growth do I need to experience in order to make this goal inevitable?"

    This week, I'm joined by a few mastermind clients: Priya, Christina, Lorraine, and Carina. They have such an incredible perspective on mastering growth on the way to their goals. They're sharing where their growth was, how it's transformed their businesses, and their favorite "this was worth the investment" moments from the mastermind.

    In this episode you'll learn:

    • How Priya accepted her 'wrong-ness' and stopped editing her voice to fit a general audience
    • The thoughts Carina chose to help her create the business (and maternity leave!) she wanted
    • The tool that changed how Lorraine makes decisions in her business
    • Using Christina's deep connection with her clients and shaping it into a meaningful connection with her online audience.
    • ...and so much more!

  • Giving Zero F*cks | Ep #19

    To have a truly impactful business, you gotta believe so much in yourself that other's opinions can't hurt you. Giving zero f*cks is one of my favorite topics, and it's so important in growing and building your business.

    One thing I see happen so often with my mastermind clients is that they're so concerned about the opinions of everyone in their social circle that it affects their impact. They're afraid to market and sell, and so they don't do either enough to make the kind of money they want to make.

    This week I'm talking about how to give zero f*cks and take up space online.

    In this episode you'll learn:

    • Why we give too many f*cks about what others think.
    • What caring too much about their opinions looks like on the daily.
    • How you could be confusing your audience and tanking sales.
    • The thoughts that help me give zero f*cks.
    • ...and so much more!

  • The Importance of Rest in Your Business | Ep #18

    Rest is revolutionary. It's also vital for the health of you and your business.

    My mastermind clients often worry that if they stop focusing on their business, it'll all fall apart. They often think if they're not actively working and thinking about their biz, they'll lose momentum, so they don't prioritize rest and time off away from their business.

    This couldn't be further from the truth, and is the fastest way to wear yourself out and stall your business growth.

    This week I'm sharing why you should be proactive in incorporating rest in your free time, separating your personal worth from your net worth, and how to fully disconnect when you're 'out of office'.

    In this episode you'll learn:

    • Why rest is an important part of your business growth.
    • How to incorporate rest and relaxation in your day/week/month.
    • Why your brain actually needs rest to process everything and recover.
    • My favorite books on this topic.
    • ...and so much more!

  • The ROI Of Investing In Your Business | Ep #15

    One mistake I see clients make in the beginning of their business journey is not investing in themselves. They think they should be able to do it on their own, they're afraid of debt, or it's not the right time to invest in their business.

    I've invested six-figures with my business coach over 3 years and made it back 6x - without ads, or a high level marketing strategy. I'd say that's worth it...and that's just where the ROI begins!

    This week I'm sharing why you should invest in yourself and your business, the ROI (return on investment) of investing in a coach, and the long term outcomes of investing wisely in your business.

    In this episode you'll learn:

    • Why you should always have a business coach.
    • How coaching helps at every income level.
    • What long-term outcomes you should focus on.
    • How I think about investing that's helped me create more money than ever.
    • ...and so much more!
