How Structure Has Provided More Freedom in My Business
Friday Feb 03, 2023
Friday Feb 03, 2023
When I left corporate I couldn't wait to leave the structure behind, but those early days and months of not having it were hard on my business.
Like most of the Midlife CEOs I work with who've had jobs and careers prior to starting their business, structure was typically built into their day.
More freedom is a benefit to working for yourself, and while exciting to have it when you haven't had it before it can be hard to know what to focus on as your business grows.
Some model what they used to do in their job and find a rhythm immediately, but then find themselves focusing on the things that aren't supporting business growth.
And others have no idea what to focus on and find that having the freedom allows them to fill their time with anything or nothing if they choose.
Today I talk about what I went through to develop more structure in each stage of business. How I lacked it initially and how I made some mistakes that I wouldn't make today.
I also talk about some things I've changed more recently that have provided even more structure to allow for more creativity and more self-care - because we all know Midlife CEOs need more time to take care of our bodies and beings.
No matter if you're in the growth, expansion, or scaling stage of growing your coaching or service-based business, take a listen to this episode to see if you can find a little more structure to your business to support your next phase of growth.

Friday Dec 16, 2022
Today I'm joined by my friend Donna Ashton for a special episode where we go behind the scenes and talk about some of the pivots I've made in my business over the last few years.
Today Donna interviews me about the pivots I've made to my online coaching business, how I've shifted from selling to the stage to selling online and why all selling of coaching programs and services should start with sales conversations (aka: Discovery Calls).
I've talked about my approach to selling before, but in this episode, I go into some of what I've learned over the last 12 years of running an online coaching business, lessons I've learned from selling from the stage, how I pivoted to selling my coaching programs when everything shifted a few years ago, my organic marketing approach and so much more.
If you're looking for ideas and inspiration around how to sell your coaching programs and offers, tune into this episode.

How to Use Your Intuition in Business with Candice Hozza
Friday Jun 17, 2022
Friday Jun 17, 2022
Today I'm speaking with a returning guest, long-time client, and one of my strategists, Candice 'Candy' Hozza about intuition in your business and Quantum Connection.
Candy is a Spiritual Strategist and Business Intuitive who specializes in helping mission-driven business owners release blocks that are holding them back and create further alignment to their purpose and profits.
When Candy initially started working with me she was doing Akashic Record Readings. As her business grew and she began transitioning from working with as many private clients to more leveraged work, she expanded to offer her Align Your Business Program.
But soon her clients were wanting to learn how to access their own intuition and learn how to read the Akashic Records for themselves, and Candy birthed another offering called Quantum Connection.
Some of what happened as she scaled was through strategy, some of it came from her own insight and the work she's done for over 30 years.
In this episode you'll hear us talk about:
The blocks that can hold you back in business, when they come up and how to deal with them
How to bring more intuition into your business (and why you should)
You'll hear what happened on a recent coaching call (and what happened when I was connecting with her dog Jules who was hanging out on the patio next to her while we were on Zoom).
What happens to your business when you start to use your intuition more
The Intuitive Business Challenge - Candy shares this 5-day virtual experience and how it can support helping you release blocks, access further insight, make better decisions and unleash greater abundance
