[FREE GUIDE] Scale To 5k/Months: The step-by-step guide to nailing down your niche, creating your first offer, and launching your dream business. Grab yours here.

Raise your hand if you’re working your butt off and still not seeing the results you want.

I remember feeling this way for YEARS in my business. Years!! I was pouring my all into my business, doing all the things the gurus said, and still, I could not land a consistent stream of high-paying clients. It felt like no matter what I did, I was working nonstop but…it wasn’t paying off.

In this episode, we’re diving into the things that are holding you back from making money in your online business. Some of these are tricky to spot—they can leave you feeling busy without actually being productive or landing clients, (hence why you’re up until 10pm and getting up at 5am and still not seeing results) and that’s what makes it so hard to spot—and to change.

So if you’re ready to start making more money in your biz, hit play.

What's your magic number?

You know, the one you want to have in savings before you finally quit your 9-5 and go all-in on your business?

Everyone has a number.

Except, I didn't.

I still remember how it felt the day I got laid off from my 9-5. I had just signed the lease on a new apartment and I was freaking out about paying rent.

I remember so vividly being escorted down the hall with my tiny box of belongings. I felt so numb. I don’t even remember driving home because as much as I was relieved to never go back to a job that made me feel empty inside, I was so worried about money that it was all I could focus on.

Little did I know that, as with so many of life's messiest starts, it would lead to the most beautiful journey.

I also never went back to an office or a 9-5 ever again.

Being laid off from that job, as scary as it was, it was the start and the push I needed to truly start the business I'd been dreaming of. But one thing I didn't love? Worrying about money. And that's why I created this episode.

Because sometimes there's an off season, sometimes you just need or want a little extra cash.

Whatever the reason, I've got you.

What if I told you there was a way to get more clients, make more money, grow or start a business, and actually have fun doing it?

Sign me up, right?!

Now what if I told you it was totally free, would make you feel even more connected to your community, and it’s easy as pie to do?

There is. And It's called Facebook Groups. This is what I’ve done to get more clients, get clearer on my niche and their needs, and make money.

If you’re thinking—isn’t Facebook dead? The answer is, no! While Facebook Pages may not be all the rage anymore, Facebook Groups are how I’ve built my network, booked clients, and built my expertise. Not to mention it’s fun and it keeps me feeling connected.

When used correctly, these have the power to transform your business. I truly believe that.

Real talk: community is at the center of everything that matters. Without it, I wouldn't have known how to start a business, find my passion, or even had the courage to ditch the 9-5 and travel the world. In fact, it was community that actually allowed me to go on a 5-month road trip. where I built my network and grew my business, all while getting to enjoy and explore cities across North America.

So when I say the community is not only the thing that brings me the greatest joy but the thing that's transformed my business, I mean it.  And today on the show, I chat with Kayty Helgerson of Gather Intentional Living, who shares her story of how community played a huge role in starting—and growing her business.

After living in Thailand. Kayty and her college sweetheart-turned husband, Colby came up with the idea to create Gather, a once-in person charcuterie and cake workshop-style event, turned Zoom sessions when the pandemic hit. Kayty talks about what sparked the idea for Gather, and how community shaped not only the launch of her business, but it's tremendous growth over the last 6 months, as well as how they pivoted with the COVID-19 pandemic, and how they're continuing to grow and meet new demands.

This is a good one—enjoy!
