Since we are talking a lot about mental health this month, I wanted to share something that really affects mine… having a routine!!! And with any routine, it’s going to be a series of habits (good and bad) that we do over and over again. But the trick is creating a great routine, full of good habits, that serves you, your schedule, and your goals! Let’s talk about how!  You might be thinking that you don’t have or need a routine, and I’m going to stop you right here. If you are a human, you need a routine. We thrive off of it. Even if it’s not a super structured line by line do this at this time style, implementing some type of routine is one thing I will always say you must have. In fact, you already have one… whether you realize it or not. Which is why this is so powerful. You may not think you need a routine but you’re actually sitting in a routine at this very moment that is actually making your life hearder!  So, let’s start here… To get started try this formula: Track Your Good Habits Track Your Bad Habits List Your Desired Habits Then, as you create your routine: Your Schedule - Is it working for you? How Can You Embody Your Idols Keep It Simple Routines have been the best and the worst parts of my life, both personal and business. How have your routines impacted you? Why not create an action plan for your profit NOW so that you can relax and enjoy your Summer with the family, not with your laptop. I'm opening up my calendar to help you design a plan to make money while having fun with your family this Summer.

Can we talk about identity for a moment here? Specifically for moms who are struggling to find theirs anyway, but then have to double down on that in business? In a world that tells us to work like we don’t have kids, be a mom like we don’t work, and do it all while looking great in a fit body with a Pinterest perfect house. I don’t want to get on a tangent here, but COME ON….First of all, let’s release all of THAT. Figuring out your identity as a human is hard enough once you become a mom. And then it changes, over and over again as your kids grow. Navigating your changing identity as a mom with a business and brand to tend to is even harder! So, today we are going to chat in some ways to make it a little bit easier!  Your Foundation  Lean Into Your Experiences  Leverage Your Unique Strengths  Create Your Personal Brand Vulnerability  How do you embrace your identity as a mom business owner?

Being a mom is freaking awesome! It’s hard, but it’s freaking awesome! We get to be home with our kids AND grow and scale a business. What… like, do you ever just take time to sit in how amazing this is? If you’re a mom and an entrepreneur, chances are you started your business so you can spend more time at home with your babies. BUT, with more time at home with your babies also comes more time at home with your laptop, your phone, your IG, your email… literally your entire business at your fingertips with all the instant gratification and demands you can imagine. Ya feel me? And everywhere you look you’re seeing someone doing something new. Launching the next “time saving” resource, or must have “secrets to scaling”, or that next thing that you just have to do “real quick” to help you get to where you want to be in your business.

It’s our Month Mamas! Happy May, Happy Mother’s Day, Happy MOTHER’S MONTH!! We love this time of year on the show, and I’m very excited for all the great things to come this month. Do we have big plans for Mother’s Day this year? I’m looking forward to celebrating for the first time as a mom of two. Last year I was hugely pregnant and everything was exhausting and hard. This year I’m adapting to the role of mom of two, while working really hard on growing my business, and everything is still exhausting and hard… but beautiful! I mention my business here because I want to spend some time in this episode talking about “scaling through the seasons” … something that I’ve been dedicating a lot of my focus on personally and in my business this year. Today we talk about what that means and how I do it! Key Points From This Episode: The importance of mental health as a mom entrepreneur Why investing in yourself and your business is so important How to scale back your schedule without scaling back your profit Why not create an action plan for your profit NOW so that you can relax and enjoy your Summer with the family, not with your laptop.

This month we are going to be talking A LOT about our mental health…why? Because we should be anyway, but also because May is Maternal Mental Health Month. If you’ve  listened to the show you know that we have an entire mental health segment on our full length episodes, and I am a strong believer in working hard to start and keep the conversation going around mental health, alway. And, believe it or not, mental health and entrepreneurship actually impact each other more than we realize. So, today we are going to talk about it! Yes, these episodes are business focused, but let me tell you… if your mental health isn’t in a good place, your business won’t be either!  The Connection- Think about the times in your life when you’re feeling like a total badass…. I’ll give you a second (I get it, it can be hard to give ourselves credit sometimes)... Now when you think of these times, you’re probably feeling in your flow. Creatively, with productivity, your mindset is in a place of gratitude… and when all of these things are on point, you’re in a great place to receive growth, opportunity, and money coming in from your business. If you haven’t noticed, I’ve become a little more woo these days, but I’m telling ya’, this stuff is important!  On the other end of this, think about the times where you’re feeling like a total piece of garbage (personal)... even if you're showing up and doing all of the things, when you’re feeling down and life is really hard, you can work work work, but business is also going to feel really hard. And I can sit here and tell you this because I KNOW THIS. FOR A FACT. FROM MY OWN EXPERIENCE! And it is FRUSTRATING!  So, if your mental health is so directly attached to the health of your business, what can you do to help it? Because you know it, I know it, even your dog knows it… it isn’t all sunshine and rainbows around here all the time, no matter how hard we try. There WILL be times where we are struggling in the mental health department, and we don’t want our business to go down with us in those moments. Here’s what I’ve found to help keep things afloat when my mental health needs a life raft: Implement Routines Plan Your Schedule Organization Limit Screen Time Find Supportive Community Embrace Vulnerability This is such a big topic, and I want you to know that if you are suffering, you are not alone. If you need a safe space and a listening ear, send me a message. I’m here for you! Business is hard, and when things don’t go as planned the hits can feel devastating, but I see you. I’m proud of you. You are doing enough, and you are right where you are meant to be in this moment. Keep going! You’re strong. You’ve got this! Why not create an action plan for your profit NOW so that you can relax and enjoy your Summer with the family, not with your laptop.

Let’s talk about money… and specifically the things that make it hard for us to talk about. As I’m writing this, I’m looking forward to a training today inside the mastermind I’m part of from a money mindset coach. To be honest with you, money mindset and blocks is something that I struggle with on a regular basis. But, the last several months I have made a concerted effort to work through these blocks and try to get my mindset right when it comes to money. I also have spent some time exploring the money mindset of my ideal clients so that I can be empathetic and understand any objections that come up around what I have to offer. There is just so much weight that comes along with the thoughts of money, and I think it so interesting to dive in and understand where it all is coming from. So, from a major money blocks work in progress mom entrepreneur to another…. Here’s what is working for me. It’s not always perfect, I still have to actively battle with my mindset, but it’s getting me there:  Understanding Money Blocks Journaling  Scarcity vs Abundance Money Motivation How’s your money mindset?

Now, I am by NO MEANS a finance girly. I loathe math, numbers are hard, and I’m the one who is thanking the lord that what our teachers use to tell us about “never having calculator in our pockets” isn’t actually the case. BUT, I do realize that in order to have a successful, sustainable, and scaling business… you need to know YOUR numbers! This time of year finances are likely top of mind with tax time + already putting a quarter of the year behind us. You likely set some financial goals at the beginning of the year, and the start of a new quarter is a really great time to circle back to that and take a pulse check. So I thought now was a great time to chat about this topic! Here is how I run my numbers for my business so that I can know what’s happening and treat my business like what it is… a real business! And again, if you’re wanting a profesh to cover this with you I’d recommend talking with a financial expert! This is just how I do things and it has worked great for me!  Money Coming In Money Going Out  EOY Financial Goal Subscriptions  Education  👉 Join the Spring Clean Your Business FREE 6 Day Challenge.

I was in a co-working session last week and the topic of information vs wisdom came up. It really landed with me and got me thinking… and I can’t believe I’m going to say this but… you can likely google a lot of what I teach. You could probably pick and piece it together with enough searching and freebies, and you might even be able to start making some money in your business. The information is out there, and many people do what I do in one form or another. But, all of that is just information. And let’s be honest, most of us are on information overload these days. How many freebies do you have sitting in your email right now that you signed up for and are just collecting dust? How many hours have you spent gooling different tips and tricks to make your business easier? Desperately searching to finally figure our the thing that you’re stuck on. The information is there… but what are you really doing with it? And how much time are you willing to sacrifice to *hopefully* crack the code? What are you going to *actually* do with all of this information that is now cluttering your inbox and your brain?  The information alone isn’t going to change how you do things because it is just that, information. In order to make a change it has to be backed with wisdom.  The wisdom is how you take this information and use it in the right order so that it actually works for you. And that is something you can't google.  👉 Join the Spring Clean Your Business FREE 6 Day Challenge.

So… IG is not my bestie right now. I’ve share a lot about how my account was deactivated and the saga of how that went, but I realized that I never followed up now that it’s official that my old account isn’t coming back and I’ve started a new. And TBH, it actually felt kind of good to start over. So, today I want to dive in on what I actually learned during this process. Because I did learn a lot. I feel like I spent the appropriate amount of time to grieve my account, because lets be honest- we put a ton of work into our IG space and the memories and connections are really hard to lose, BUT starting new has actually felt  really great So, lets get into it!!  The Bad:  Importance of Email List  IG Is Not Everything (check out @thehollymariehaynes to learn about her “anti-social plan” Back Up Photos/Captions  DM Leads The Wins: New Audience  New Messaging  Better Boundaries  So, what would you do if your IG went away today? 👉 Join the Spring Clean Your Business FREE 6 Day Challenge.

We’ve been talking a lot about feeling empowered as women this month. As we round out Women’s History Month I wanted to take some time to think about how we can feel super empowered in our businesses, too! As female founders, running your business and being a CEO is a pretty awesome position. We have a lot of power, even if we don’t realize or reflect on it often. We can get so use to the grind that we forget how badass we really are, so I think it’s important that we take some time to celebrate this and remember that we are amazing! What makes you feel empowered in your business? I’m going to share a few things that stand out for me and I’d love to hear if any of these resonate or inspire you!
