Okay Beyhive (& everyone who even kinda sorta rides with her), have you heard the new Beyonce song, “Break My Soul?” These lines hit me right in the gut: “I’m lookin’ for a new foundation, yeah And I’m on that new vibration I’m buildin’ my own foundation, yeah” Whattttt. If you remember, last month I taught a class on energetic business foundation, the WHY behind the platform of your business, and why YOU are the person to do the thing. What then? Once you know exactly WHY you’re doing this thing… What comes next? Time to pull the curtain back on my own business. For me, 2018 was the year I got clear on WHY. Then I started building my online foundation, my platform. The online platform that went on to help thousands of expecting families prepare for birth, and more than a thousand birth professionals & heart-centered entrepreneurs build their businesses. How did I do it? In short, I built loads of digital resources, grew my audience (mostly organic), and learned how to create offers to support people (sell). I show you all of the how inside of the Online Business Bundle. Note that while some of the videos are from 2019 & 2020, I won’t re-record them, and here’s why… The courses are a time capsule of the energy that I was in at the time. In 2019, I was a digital creation queen. I made several virtual workshops, classes, masterclasses, webinars, and more. In 2020, I leveraged my digital products to help me build my audience, get my work in front of more people and generate my first six figures. The energy of building a platform that supports you, the energy of passive income, the energy of growing an audience, and of reaching financial milestones… is in the videos. So when you watch the replays, that is the energy available for you to vibe with. If you desire to build your business’ platform online, and you appreciate the way that I approach business, the bundle is worth its weight in gold. Let’s build your platform, friend. >Check out the Online Business Bundle here<

If your brain has ever been downright rude with the mental chatter, talking you out of things that ARE actually meant for you, this episode is for you. This week, you’ll learn how to start recognizing unhelpful mental chatter before it spirals out of control, how to start listening to your heart and following what you’re led to. We walk through a few examples from my own life / business to help you anchor in the concept: 1) First pregnancy; 2) Starting in the birth world; 3) Taking an energy healing practitioner training. ALL of which my brain said that I wasn’t a match for. And here I am, three pregnancies, a whole birth business, and energy healing practitioner later.

And, I’ll pull back the curtain & walk you through how I structure free things in my business. Unschool thoughts of the week: 1) question any generalizations that you’ve picked up along the way about free (red flags); 2) the purpose of free things isn’t to hook people and to sell to them. Homework: 1) How can you offer something free in a way that serves you, too? 2) How can you set it up in a way that puts boundaries around your energetic output? 3) How would a free offering FEEL for YOU?

Picking up from where we left off last week, are you fired up for revisiting your 2022 goals? Before you get started goal setting for the remainder of the year, or YOUR new year, there’s a foundational piece that I want to share with you in this episode. But first, a little background. In business school, we were taught how to make a business plan based on loads of market research. We collected public companies’ financial data, then plugged arbitrary estimates into our business plans. Today, the way that I make a business plan is quite different. It isn’t starting with strategy, but starting with energetics. If you’re not yet familiar with energy talk in regards to your business, you’re in good company. For today, you’ll learn a bit of business energetics 101, as it relates to building a home. Enjoy! Apply for the FREE 3-day live event: Energetic Business Foundation

There are two different types of business people: the serial entrepreneur and the accidental entrepreneur. Which are you? Can you guess which I am? I was born a serial entrepreneur, a product of two business owner parents, starting businesses since I was selling handmade dreamcatchers to my Mom’s clients in her hair salon. I live for the time freedom, financial freedom and impactful work.   So what exactly is an accidental entrepreneur? In my experience, this is the person that may have originally thought corporate jobs were ‘safe.’ The person that was so rocked by an experience (i.e. birth), that you decided the only way for you to experience joy in your vocation is by changing the world. Or, the person that experienced such heavy discomfort, pain even, that felt trapped in your traditional job. And one day you accidentally stumbled into being a business owner, realizing it is the only way to start to feel better, walk in your purpose, and help people.   Didn’t consider yourself an entrepreneur before listening to this episode because you don’t check certain boxes, or it makes you uneasy? Pull up a chair, or plug in your earpods. It’s time to claim business ownership, my friend.    If you have been led to believe that you have to be a certain type of person, your business has to reach a certain income level, have a certain number of employees, a certain number of clients, or even make money at all to be considered a business... it’s not true.    Journal homework: How can you allow yourself to embody more of your entrepreneur?   > Click here to find out more about the Online Business School Membership <
