  • 6 things I'd Tell Myself 6 Years Ago, When I Started (Part 2)

    It's the 6 year anniversary of buying my first domain name: urban20something.com. If I could go back, I would give that scared, brave girl a hug as she clicked "purchase" because she is the reason I am where I am today. Taking one small (but also momentous) action that rippled out into my now 7-figure business.

    This is part two of the 6 things I'd tell myself back then to help me think bigger than just earning $400 extra a month, move out of living paycheck to paycheck faster, and encourage her as she took big risks to make this dream life possible.

    Tune in to hear:

    • my biggest fears when starting out vs. my fears that came true

    • how much debt I went into to start my business

    • how to push past the inevitable obstacles and doubt by pairing mindset work with tangible action

    My signature program Scale Your Side Hustle® is now enrolling! If you want to bring something to life that's been in the back of your head for years, or finally see results from an IG account you've been running for months, or get out of your 9-5 once and for all, this program is for you.

  • 6 things I'd Tell Myself 6 Years Ago, When I Started (Part 1)

    6 years ago, I hit "publish" on a blog post for the very first time. I have so much love for that girl six years ago. She was in debt, single, not a mom yet, trying to find her way in NYC, but she knew she was meant for something bigger.

    But it was a hard journey. Confusing, like a puzzle I couldn't crack. So I want to share with you some of the things I would tell myself back then: what to focus on, what to stress less about, and how I'd encourage her.

    Tune in to hear:

    • How posting cringe-worthy content is the first step to growing your business

    • Why creating an amazing offer should NOT be your top priority when starting out

    • The strategy behind pricing your offers (hint: lower prices do not equal more customers!)

    I hope these insights allow you to let go of what others may think and focus in on what's important as you chase after your biggest vision!

  • You get to live a dream: how to do it in 4 steps

    Exactly 6 years ago, I woke up feeling like it was Christmas morning.

    I had finally saved up the $50 I needed from my 9-5 paycheck to purchase an blogging e-book and my very first domain. I was sharing a one-bedroom apartment with two roommates, feeling like money was beyond scarce, and I was ready to change my life.

    Now, I've quit my job, hit 7-figures in my business, I'm a wife and mom, living in a two-bedroom apartment across from Central Park, and wake up everyday thinking "I can't believe this gets to be my life."

    Are you ready to give yourself permission to finally love your dream life?

    Tune in and hear:

    • the four steps I've used and still use to make life-changing decisions
    • the sneaky step that few take, but without it will make it hard to succeed
    • the truth about taking action (it's not what you think)

    Want to learn more about how I created my own dream life, and how you can too? My signature program, Scale Your Side Hustle®, which was developed from my own experience: 2 years of pointless actions to the next 6 months that catapulted me out of my 9-5 & stagnation into freedom & 5 figure months.

    What if you could make more money, serve more people, and scale your business...all while working less?

    Live from Miami! This week, I'm sharing with you how & why I made the decision to move to a 3-day work week when I came back from maternity leave.

    • why my first trimester of pregnancy was the catalyst for working less
