Throughout the many years of growing my business, I've seen Coaches, Consultants and Service Providers struggle and struggle...to live a life of complete and total FREEDOM.

And it still surprises me that...

Those who are struggling to hit their Freedom Number (that number where we are feeling like we are pretty much set and can live the life we want)...

Are making the SAME few mistakes.

I recognize them immediately because they’re the same 3 mistakes I made when I was first starting out. And continued to make for quite a while.

And if you’re not currently making at least $20k–$30k months in your coaching or service provider business in a way that FEELS GOOD…

more than likely, it’s because you’re committing one or more of these classic mistakes.

But here’s the good news.

I’m goi…

Female entrepreneurs are not immune to suggested successes. There may be scammers calling themselves a business coach for women, but it is actually just going to drain your money. You need to be careful before you hire a business coach for female entrepreneurs or outsource any work.

The United States Association of Certified Fraud Examiners found that small businesses are especially targeted for scams. They estimated that U.S. businesses lose an average of 5% of their gross revenue to fraud.

We make choices every day – some easier than others, some with quite some time of deliberation, some with none at all. This past year has given us much to reflect on. Our ideas and even our decisions have been challenged. Truths we believed about ourselves or others may have turned out to just the opposite. 2020 has done some work for us. It has forced us to reevaluate, analyze, and maybe even reconsider how we see our world and ourselves.

Dive into that, really slip into the deep ocean that is your consciousness and self-awareness, how do you choose paths in your life? What emotion ultimately drives you? Is it pride? Fear? Curiosity? Gratitude?

I want to be clear. There is no right answer. Every emotion has its place in your heart and a job to fulfill in your life, even the “negative” ones. No emotional connection is wrong, but when you linge…

In my practice, I often meet people who live with dependent partners and they themselves suffer dependency without realizing it.

Many people don’t even suspect that they have some form of dependency.

Take this test to determine if you are really a dependent person. For each answer with “yes” put 1 point.

I often feel bad or sad for no reason and I can’t change it. I can’t control my emotions.

I often tell myself: IF… My partner loves me more, stops drinking, has more money, etc., THEN I will be very happy, calm…

I take offense easily and believe that people are not fair to me and don’t give me enough.

I wonder how it’s possible to be such a good person and such bad things happen to me.

I often experience unhappy and unrequited love, I feel used and deceived.

I don’t have enough mone…

When it comes to leads, quality trumps quantity. Many lead-gen agencies promise quantity but lack quality leads to provide your business.

Female entrepreneurs need to be very cautious about paying for leads, especially on Facebook. I’m a business coach for female entrepreneurs, and even I have had unfortunate outcomes from hiring people to get leads for my business. The best female entrepreneurs can make mistakes quickly and learn and grow from them, as now I have learned better ways to get leads. However, as I share my experiences, hopefully, you can learn from my experience why you should be cautious paying for Facebook leads.

My Experience With a Facebook Lead-Gen AgencyI hired a Facebook leads generation company to engage with my audience to get appointments. I paid USD 1600 for two months. The company promised a certain number of …

Understanding the health of your business, begins with your understanding of your transactions and how often that data is analyzed in your accounting system.

Often times entrepreneurs are reluctant to admit that they do not fully take advantage of their monthly financial reporting benefits, because they are more focused with their year-end gross profits and net income for taxes.

But did you know that reconciling your books and reviewing your Profit + Loss statement on a monthly basis can:

Help you understand how much income your business is actually making. Help you track your business expenses, and see how they directly impact your monthly profit.

There is a gas station in my town I dread going to.I am not joking, here is what happens every single time I get gas there:I insert my card and somehow do it wrong.It tells me to reinsert my card.I do it again and somehow do it wrong.It tells me to go see the clerk.I’m not an idiot at using my debit card. It’s just that the process is just slightly different than 99 percent of the gas stations I use. So out of habit, I do it the way I’m used to doing it. Which is the wrong way at this gas station.It has gotten to the point that I avoid going there if I can. In Idaho, I don’t want to stand out in the cold for five minutes trying to figure out one of the most basic technologies in existence. When I do go, it drives me so crazy I vow to never go again.Many websites out there have things on them that are causing these gas station moments for pe…

If you’re looking to launch an online business, blog, brand, chances are you want control of your schedule, income and your life. You want to live life each day on your terms. Many bloggers, influencers and course creators want to know how to monetize their blogs.

I recently watched a very successful blogger who makes 5 figures a month off her blogs share that of all the ways she makes money, (affiliates, display ads and her own products), about two thirds of her income comes from her own digital products. Sounds pretty compelling, right?

Great. Now that we got that out of the way and agreed we all want to make money, I’m going to share why creating a digital product is the best way to monetize your brand.

Control: When you create your own product you can make anything you want – yes, absolutely any topic in any format that resonat…
