The Heart Centered Entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post . About four times a year, I get that sinking feeling that my IG just isn’t very aesthetic, and I worry about what other people (not potential clients) think about me. That I look weird on video, that I ramble, that my captions aren’t perfect. But I always come back to this: it’s okay that my marketing is imperfect. Who I am in real life is better than my marketing, and I am more complex and full of life and kind than photos and texts can show. I am way better at coaching/caring for people and getting them results, than I am at marketing. And honestly, as a...

Visit today's blog post . In this episode, I’m exploring what it really means to release guilt and shame around the old chapters we might consider “failures” - the businesses, investments, and relationships that didn’t work out.

This conversation is about bringing forward the lessons we’ve learned along the way, honoring the past version of ourselves who were truly doing the bravest they could, and learning how to bring the...

The Heart Centered Entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post . In this episode, I’m sharing 3 non-sales skills (that you already have!) that will help you make a lot of money when you tap in... And the first one, of course? Presence and listening. When you find it, it feels like a magical flow and makes you lots of money, but it can be hard to access!  Yes, it’s important to spend about 20% of your energy planning for the future (I love doing this with my clients, helping them make strategic plans), and yes, 20% reflect on the data and the past. But 60%+ of our energy should be in the present if we want to make easy...

7 Words I Stopped Using to Make More Sales (with Heart) show art 7 Words I Stopped Using to Make More Sales (with Heart)

The Heart Centered Entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post . At the start of my business, I actually Googled, "How do I get clients without selling?"...  Anything but having to be icky and cold DMing people. Or making them feel small in order to get them to buy. I felt a shrinking, a contraction, a nervousness.  Then I had an ah-ha moment. What if instead of 'selling' I could just 'invite' people in a kind, clear, direct, pressure-free way to my programs? What if it could feel light and easy and generous? And then it really did start to feel that way.  In this episode, I'm sharing 7 EXACT...

Visit today's blog post . In this episode, I’m exploring how feeling secure—financially, emotionally, and energetically—is actually one of the most powerful business strategies you can use. We’re told to do what “works,” invest everything, and push through discomfort. But for heart-centered entrepreneurs, we need to take a different approach.  I share my own story about wanting to wait for the “perfect financial time” to buy a home (and why I’m so glad I didn’t), plus a story from Suzie Orman that illustrates the importance of investing and defining security on...

I’ve got an embarrassing money mistake to share with you- and no, it’s not the $280 I paid a guy for five minutes of landscaping. What’s embarrassing is that he made it seem like a massive job, and I totally believed him. (First-time homeowner over here!) But here’s the thing: I don’t know a single business owner or woman who hasn’t made a money “mistake”. It happens to ALL of us, and they’re a normal part of growing and learning in business (and life). I want to talk about them to help release the shame we often carry. 

In this episode, I’m sharing my story and some of the situations I’ve helped other women navigate—from acquiring business debt, to buying a course you’re disappointed by… and more! Mistakes happen, they don’t define us. Let’s release the shame, learn from our experiences, and not let them hold us back. 💛
