For the past two plus years, I’ve started my day by pleasantly waking up to Daft Punk’s Lose Yourself to Dance which quite possibly could be the best wake-up call ever.

Before I got on the plane, before I bought the tickets and reserved the room, before I told Jill that maybe we needed to go to a blogging conference, I spent a lot of time trying to talk myself out of going. Jill and I are a one-income show. That one ... Read More »

A fundamental social group in society typically consisting of one or two parents and their children. b. Two or more people who share goals and values, have long-term commitment... Read More »
I am currently leading a Success Camp for 17 amazing women on my Executive Director’s downline. It’s a six week camp that directs the “campers” to specific training calls and forces them to step outside of their comfort zones. This past week the campers had to email me about where they would like to see themselves and their business in a year from now and two years from now. One of the campers ema... Read More »
