Who Are You Following & Where Are They Going?
The Creative Plot
Ok friends- it had to be done. I'm stealing the mic for a solo SKC yap about something I think is plagueing us all (whether we recognize it or not). Who are you following- and where are they going? We all know that saying "You're most like the 5 people you spend your time with", but in today's day and age we're spending more time with someone virtually- and 80% of the time we don't even know them in real life. I read a crazy statistic the other day that stopped me in my tracks and had me even more in my feels than I had been lately about this wild world of influence and...

New Year's Evolution vs. New Year's Resolution
The Creative Plot
Well, friends, we made it to another New Year! What was originally intended as a "five for twenty-five" episode focused on your questions, comments, concerns, and plans for approaching this time of change and possibility (a well-curated twenty something minute episode I might add lol) is actually a 9 minute voice memo turned episode recorded while driving in my car. Because transparently almost every person who wrote topic ideas, questions, or thoughts to me for this episode were all in alignment on one big thing- I want to show up as myself, but how? I want to pivot and do what I...

info_outlineWell, friends, we know the rumors- one is "lonely", "isolated", "out of the loop".... insert record scratch sound here ;)
Welcome to Chapter 9 where we'll tackle the common myth that being a solo entrepreneur means going it alone. From finding community (virtual, in-person, all community counts!), feeling confident on your own (lonely vibes who?), to exploring thoughtful ways to connect and outsource as a solo business to exceed even your own expectations (teamwork makes the dreamwork), the most important thing here is to quickly recognize and know in your gut these four words-
