What’s your breakthrough business model? Download the guide to find out!
I'm all for action. And clarity. And outsmarting the hustle. I'm championing impact AND income. In my world, one doesn't exist without the other. And this is where I talk straight - to you.
Earlier this month an entrepreneur was referred to me and we had an amazing conversation where she asked me to coach her. Awww so flattering (seriously it was flattering) because I love serving entrepreneurs and I LOVED her business. But here was the thing… errr …things…. #1: She wasn’t my perfect client. Since I’ve made the commitment to work within …
As 2018 comes to a close, I’m reflecting on what’s gone well and not so well. One of the things that feels like a win, but also feels a little flat, is crossing the five year mark as an independent business owner. Is it really a win if my 5th year in biz felt a little out of sorts? And by “a little […]
Freedom, impact, creativity, and lifestyle… these are the main reasons that many business builders launch into working for themselves. But even with these great motivations, many will never get past survival mode. Sometimes, the work that got an entrepreneur to survival-mode (where you’re paying the bills but not much else), or even a little beyond, is more about hustling and […]
Is your business confusing to people? This might seem like a silly question, but a lot of small business owners go about fixing the symptoms of a business problem without considering how confusing their message or positioning is.

That’s TWENTY WEEKS of not doing something I loved! No early summer morning runs through my neighborhood. No runs through Forest Park. […]
After eating my body weight in potatoes, stuffing and pumpkin pie over the past few days, I started thinking about what I’ve been doing with my time and how my business has evolved over the past year. I’ve experimented with finding a balance between offering 1:1 custom coaching and group coaching programs. I’ve tried to find a rhythm with delegating […]
Which story is more compelling? Story #1… I spent 14 years selling software in the B2B market. I learned a lot and helped startups and corporate giants grow their revenue through a lot of grinding, hard work, selling, and business development. After that, I started a boutique coaching and consulting business where I learned a ton about how to be […]
Many entrepreneurs start out as a one-person show. They wear every hat, from bookkeeper and content creator to salesperson and head of customer service.

Just gazing at nature can increase your productivity.
.
It's one of the reasons that my friend Denise and I are hosting a 1 day retreat at her ranch in the Columbia River Gorge - to be a sanctuary where people can unplug from the noise of the city and embrace the trees, birds, fresh air, and expansive views.

As it turns out, research shows that being in nature offers up some pretty surprising benefits like...
.
🔹 Improved short-term memory
🔹 Decreasing stress levels
🔹 Increasing concentration
🔹 Enhancing creative functions
🔹 Mindfulness
