Unapologetic

I've had so many conversations about this and continue to have them. I think it's really important to address BOTH - that the world, or your personal circumstances even, can be really uncertain and fucked up AND you don't have to put your goals, dreams, or success on hold. 

NOW is the time to go after it so you're able to help yourself and others. 

If you're struggling with this right now, my DMs are always open. There's a lot of messed up shit going on and it's important we support each other. 

For support in your business and a space where we don't shy away from conversations like this, check out IMPACT - my 6 month hybrid group program. You'll receive the business support to scale and reach your definition of success, as well as be surrounded by a community of likeminded women who want to not only make money, but a difference in the world.

I'm starting a new series which is going to be every Monday - except for today (kids are off for the break and it's crazy around here so it is what it is, real life...) and I'm spilling the 'coffee' on the tech/platforms/apps, systems, strategies, and automations you've heard about and I get a lot of questions on. 

Up first - ManyChat. 

The coffee is HOT... and there's a lot you should know. 

I'd love to hear your thoughts after you listen and let me know if you're Team ManyChat or... no...

So this happened. 
And I'm still confused and questioning who thought it was a good idea to start this trend and go this far with it, and how they thought their business was going to just keep going after this... choice. 
Weigh in and let me know what you think!

Well... a lot changed. Let's get into it.

Today I'm joined by Christine Smith and we're having a chat that came about from a LinkedIn post that I made: 

Business owners who want to charge thousands and make a lot of money (totally fine) but also want to pay almost nothing for someone to be on their "team" and have high expectations of their work. 

I get wanting your team to do good work for you.

I don't understand wanting to pay as little as possible (I'm talking $15/hr or much less) when you're apparently making so much AND expecting a lot...

We'd love to hear your thoughts after you give it a listen!
