A lot of you might have seen our end-of-year statistics, and to be completely frank, I was also taken aback! I won't deceive you—$200K wasn't the target. Our aim was $125K, and I would have been content with achieving just that! However, there was a different plan in store, and I'm endlessly thankful for it. So, how did we manage to do it? Did I start an Onlyfans page to make it happen?! On this episode, I'll delve into how we transformed into a $200K organization within a year and a half!

Love Y’all For Free,

Welcome back from the break! As you embark on your journey through 2024, I urge you to be mindful of the energy you carry within you. In this episode, we are joined by Eric Cox, an AFPA Certified Health & Wellness Coach, to delve into the topic of our energy.

I recently mentioned to a friend that it's not just our actions, but our energy that can significantly impact our lives. I often sense good energy from a person right from the start. It's when I disregard that intuition that I encounter difficulties. In 2024, my goal is to heighten my awareness of my own energy and that of those around me. I aim to ensure that I am presenting myself as the best version of who I am.

The insights shared by Eric Cox have set me on a path towards honoring this objective. I hope they will do the same for you.

As you're aware, within just 1.5 years, we've successfully partnered with numerous organizations and leaders! I'm frequently asked by leaders about our approach. I firmly believe that comprehending your value addition is pivotal. Entering each conversation with confidence, fully aware of what you can offer or provide, is key. Often, people scramble to define this during discussions, likely due to insufficient planning. In today's episode, I'll elaborate on why it's imperative for all leaders and coaches to strategically approach partnerships and collaborations. Additionally, as a holiday gift, I'm offering you a free resource to assist in making informed decisions about whom to grow and connect with. I'm thrilled to share this with you!
