Here’s the nutshell version of the vlog inception: You can watch the second installment >>HERE<< and work alongside us as we craft your Business WHY/Mission Statement. On a personal note, the past three weeks have been nothing short of bananas. I feel like a spinning top, and while there are days when I want to […]

Howdy partner! (CAN YOU TELL I VISITED TEXAS?!) I have updates for you this week, and they both have to do with the same person. Over the past few weeks, I’ve sent you updates about changes I’ve been making (rebranding my website, signing with a speaking agency, and stepping into my 2023 word of the […]

I watched my mom stuff my twin sister’s mouth with a bar of soap when she heard her cussing on the front porch.  Bianca had the mouth of a sailor, a five-year-old who could make Captain Jack Sparrow blush. My mom was convinced she could just wash away those words from her mouth, but Bianca […]

He asked me, “what’s your number?”  Which is code for, WHEN IS ENOUGH, ENOUGH? It came off the back of a conversation about growth, goals, financial security expectations.  And, like, is there a point when you look at your business, and think–yeah–this is it, I’m ready to take my foot off the pedal? His message […]

Have you ever done something in business that embarrassed you so much that you wanted to cancel before it even started? This happened to me last week. I sat in the back of an Uber and sent him the following text: I was excited to record a podcast with Lewis Howes, and booked a podcast […]

They asked if I wanted to cancel the live announcement. I let out a deep sigh, and simply said, no. It was Friday, February 10th and we decided to postpone the debut of the new platform…the surprise debut that was slated for February 14th. JUST FOUR DAYS LATER. My stomach was in knots because the tech […]

We’re 25 days into 2023, and let me tell you the biggest difference in my mindset. I was—quite literally—shrinking my potential based on my history and (limited) experiences, and convincing myself that was my TRUTH. Instead of looking at the world as endless opportunities (which it is), I decided what was possible for me was […]

He said it was quite unlike me.  You mean like a craft, he asked.  My husband was confused as to why I bought paint-by-number sets. I was hosting a holiday tamale dinner (homemade by yours truly!), and decided to make it a painting party as well. When I unboxed all the art supplies, I realized […]

One of my earliest memories is saving money to buy a–wait for it–notebook.  Yes, I earned money so I could buy a Hello Kitty journal. As the daughter of an immigrant and an (unreasonably) proud homeschooled child, I loved writing, but often had to use old or discarded notebooks my mom found while dumpster diving. […]

He looked around and said, “Failure is NOT an option.” Gene Kranz said these famous words as the Director of Nasa flight operations who directed the landing mission for Apollo 11. And–boom–just like that, he gave himself one option:  Success. (Maybe I should avoid using the word BOOM and Apollo 11 in the same note, […]
