In August I had the opportunity to speak on the bestselling author panel at FEMPOWERED LIVE, a 2-day women’s conference. I knew it would be fun and a chance to talk about my book, I’ve Got You, Girlfriend!, but I had no idea how impactful it would be on my life and business. 

I was surrounded by like-minded speakers, authors, podcasters, business owners, and mompreneurs. We were vulnerable, brave, and supportive of each other. We shared personal and professional struggles and celebrated each others’ wins. It was a beautiful experience. 

Hear more specifics in this episode about what surprised me, encouraged me, and had me completely motivated to dream bigger and take action. Then join us for round two in April! Click on the FEMPOWERED LIVE link below to read more about the next event.

Highlights:

(02:56) The importance of asking for help

(06:59) Why should you invest in yourself?

Need permission or a friendly reminder to invest in yourself? You’ve got it, girlfriend! 

Inspired by a women’s personal development conference I was about to attend, I felt compelled to record this episode before hopping on a plane. I was so excited to be a speaker on the bestselling authors panel at the FEMPOWERED LIVE event in Denver, CO and stay on the extra day to absorb all the life and biz-changing messages the other speakers were sharing. It did not disappoint! Stay tuned for a followup episode on that. 

I hope after hearing this one you’ll be encouraged and even challenged to invest your time and money into whatever you need to reach your goals, achieve success both personally and professionally, and kick the guilt to the curb if that starts showing up. 

Whether it’s self care in the form of pampering yourself or consuming content from an online course, attending a virtual or live event to inspire action, or taking the leap to try something new and hiring the help you need to get there, I’m sharing some ideas for how to prep ahead and enjoy every minute of it because you are so worth it! 

Highlights:

(01:25) Invest in yourself… or nobody else will!

(05:29) It’s all about preparation and confidence

(09:02) Spray Tan anyone? 

(13:03) When to invest your time and money

Mentioned:

Ep 18: Publish a Bestseller

Ep 24: The Art of the Pivot

When you speak, do people really understand what you mean? 

As a mom, wife, motivational speaker, podcaster, author, and a business owner, I can tell you that sending a clear message is important, and not always so easy. We may think what we’re saying makes total sense, but is it landing on your audience (your kids, co-workers, or clients) the way you intended? I wasn’t so sure. So I asked for some backup from my long-time online friend, and messaging expert, Vanessa Wilde. 

Vanessa is a creative director and copywriter, with over 10 years in digital marketing. With an edge on positioning and messaging, Vanessa helps businesses clearly articulate the value of their products and services so best-fit customers convert. She's also a wife of 13 years, a mom of 3, and a dog mom.

We talked about pivoting through different seasons at home and work, why we would even consider starting anything new if the stats say that 90% of start-ups fail in the first 10 years, and how failure equals feedback. I learned a lot and hope you’ll appreciate her sound advice too! 

Highlights:

(04:43) Why should we start anything new?

(09:06) How to set yourself up for success

(12:21) Keeping up with the trends

(17:52) How to use your words to connect with your clients

(23:28) Pulling away from social media

(29:13) Finding where you feel most fulfilled

After years of navigating the uncertainty of entrepreneurship and mom life, I’ve often been called the “Queen of the Pivot.” It’s a name I’ve grown to love for what it represents. From elementary school teacher to business owner, professional organizer to Mompreneur Strategist, motivational speaker and award-winning podcaster to bestselling author, I’ve learned to embrace change more quickly and effectively than I did in the past. 

I’ve discovered a way to simplify the process of getting through the necessary shifts in life and business without dwelling on the setbacks, letting fear rule your decisions, and resisting forward motion that causes many people to miss out on incredible blessings and opportunities. 

There’s an art to the pivot! You can begin using my 3 E’s today to pivot with confidence, integrity, and grace even when you’re uncertain of how it will all turn out. 

I hope this episode gives you the encouragement to lean into the unknown and trust that there’s a greater plan for your life beyond your wildest dreams, and nothing can stop you when you learn to pivot well! 

Highlights:

(03:17) Pivots in my life

(10:38) From business to theatre

(15:38) Embracing the struggle

(21:52) The 3 E’s for pivoting confidently

(29:23) Focus on one thing at a time

(38:00) The importance of asking for help

What makes you an expert at something? It’s been said that it takes 10,000 hours of practice or experience to get you to expert status, but other research has shown that in some cases no matter how much you work toward a goal it’s just not in the cards. 

This could be because of issues that exist beyond your control, like the fact that my 5’4” height would probably not have me winning any dunking contests. It could also have to do with whether or not you had a great desire or felt called to pursue a certain goal. I can’t say that being a basketball star is on my bucket list. 

On the flip side, you may be so driven by internal conviction that that’s enough to propel you into expert status at a very fast pace. You get the knack for something, crack the code, or quickly learn from your mistakes and you take off. When that happens and your desire to serve others with your skills or teach them to do the same is realized, you’re unstoppable! 

Whether it’s a slow build to 10,000 hours and beyond or a quick study with fast results, trust the process if you’re pursuing your purpose, and believe that no matter what level you're at you can always be of service to others. 

Highlights:

(01:50) How to become an expert in your field

(07:28) Child prodigies

(09:46) I could never solve a Rubik’s Cube

(16:36) How to ask experts for help

(18:58) The power of paying it forward

(24:41) Pivot with confidence, integrity and purpose

Pursuing our purpose sounds admirable and worthwhile, but what if it’s so new or uncertain that we don’t feel confident?

I’ve been in the middle of a pivot myself in the last few months in my business and that sometimes comes with a lack of confidence. 

What I’ve discovered after many necessary pivots, both personally and professionally, is if we lead with our purpose, confidence will follow. If we choose to focus on learning the lessons through the pivot and trust that God has a plan for us, we’ll ultimately gain confidence that’ll help us keep going. 

Highlights:

(01:06) The Southern California sun

(05:27) Pivoting from organization to motivation

(07:14) Called to serve others

(11:58) How to chase your purpose
