Ep 40: Overcoming Being Paralyzed By The Lie Of Perfection
I talk to a lot of business builders about what holds them back. Why do they drag their feet when doing things that they know will grow their business?
Their reply 9 times out of 10 always has to do with some sort of fear…. But when I really think about fear – isn’t fear present in our minds because we are always chasing perfection?
The perfect headshot, the perfect caption, the perfect grid, the perfect sales page, the perfect email… and producing the perfect product.
If we could reach PERFECTION then we’d have no fear of what others thought. Fear of other people’s opinions.
So how do we combat this? How do we overcome showing up to the world as imperfect and being totally OK with someone having an opinion of us?
This is definitely a voyage I’ve personally been on for years and years and inside this episode, I’m going to share what I’ve done to combat this paralyzation of my business when it comes to “striving for perfection.”

Or maybe you’re a creative and you design custom birthday signs, watercolor paintings or pencils drawings.
Either literally or figuratively – you are all selling the same thing.

Ep 37: Two Ways To Leverage Your Influence
For the last year, I’ve been focused on teaching women how to leverage their influence to monetize their brand.
What it comes down to is I believe your brand influence is made up of your layers and layers of pivots, life cycles, lessons, and experiences. When you communicate this you create influence.
Meaning the more consistently you voice your message – the more influence you create.
And the more people you can empower with your influence.
Today on this episode I want to share with you TWO ways that I teach business builders to leverage their influence no matter what kind of business they are building or have yet to start creating.
