STOP! Before you invest in a website platform, PLEASE listen to this episode.

The thing about Website hosting platforms is that It’s not a ONE SIZE FITS ALL thing.

That said, I do have strong arguments behind why I will never use any other platform besides Squarespace. There are many who will argue that Wordpress, Shopify or WiX are the best. And in all honesty, it really comes down to personal preference and which one best fits your business goals long term. 

Every platform serves a very specific area and if you are not familiar with each hosting site, you risk choosing the wrong one and end up spending more $$ than you intended to or end up stuck because you don’t want to just eat the cost and start over.

So, with that in mind, I will share with you what I would say are the strengths of Wordpress, WiX, Shopify and Squarespace and then leave it up to YOU to choose the platform that is best for your projected, long term growth.

UGH! That dreaded Ideal Client thing …. This was me not that long ago. Took me FOR FREAKING EVER to figure it out. I took so many webinars, downloaded free guides, took paid courses, nothing seemed to help. That is until I got crystal clear about who (I) wanted to show up as. How I wanted to help. Then I got hyper focused and BAMB it all clicked and fell into place. In this episode, I share my own struggles and how I came up with my own system of figuring out my ideal client profile, (I call it my dream client) in the hope that it will help YOU figure it out for yourself.

What are you afraid of? What limits are you putting on yourself that are holding you back from becoming who you want to be or are keeping you from having that dream of yours come true.

In this episode, you’ll hear me talk about my own limiting beliefs around starting this podcast and what I did to push through the intensely uncomfortable side of having to talk to myself. It’s messy and not well done BUT I made my producer publish it anyway because I want to prove to you, wait!, no, I want to double-dog-dare you to STOP limiting yourself and go after your dreams! They need you to make them a reality!

If I can do it, so can you! We can do it together.
