Last week, we cleaned up your money habits. This week, we build your financial empire.

You sit at your laptop. The email draft to a potential client is open. The cursor blinks. But you freeze. You tell yourself you’ll come back to it later. But “later” keeps turning into someday, maybe, never. That’s not procrastination. That’s success avoidance. In this week’s episode of Breadwinning Business Women, I’m breaking down how fear, doubt, and discomfort quietly sabotage your next level and how to stop letting emotions block your income. You’ll walk away knowing exactly how to build your emotional edge—the skill that separates stuck entrepreneurs from those who...

Success doesn’t sit around waiting while you “think it over.” It moves. Fast. I learned that the hard way early in my career—watching mentors, colleagues, and even friends leapfrog to results while I was still making color-coded pros and cons lists. That’s what this week’s episode of Breadwinning Business Women is all about: why success loves speed and how you can finally stop waiting and start winning. Here’s what I break down inside: The one sneaky habit that makes you feel productive but actually keeps you stuck. A two-minute practice that will kill your procrastination...

Picture this: Your business is rolling. Bank deposits are coming in. Clients feel steady. And then—bam. One shift, one decision, one email from your “big client”... and your cash flow dries up overnight. That happened to me. And the mistake cost me six figures. In this week’s Breadwinning Business Women episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on that story—and more importantly, the strategies you can use to make sure it doesn’t happen to you. Here’s a taste of what you’ll hear inside: Why depending too heavily on one client is riskier than you think (and how to spot it before...

You know what most business owners do in August? They coast. They slow down. They “wait until September” to get serious. And then they spend the first month of Fall playing catch-up while the clients… the opportunities… the profits… pass them by. I’m not letting that happen to you. That’s why I just dropped a brand new episode of the Breadwinning Business Women podcast: Prep Your Business for a Profitable Fall (My SIMPLE 5-Step Routine) Inside, I’m breaking down exactly what to do right now to: Set clear sales targets that make your Q4 revenue predictable Lock in the...

Ever hit a wall in your business and wonder, ‘Is this all there is? At that moment I wanted to throw in the towel because it hit me like a ton of bricks: I can’t scale my business if I’m the only one doing the work. So, I took a leap. Instead of just coaching clients one at a time, I started a group program and brought on two coaches. It wasn’t the smoothest transition, but let me tell you—it was worth every second of discomfort. In this week’s episode of the Breadwinning Business Women podcast, I’m flipping the script a bit. For the last few weeks, we’ve been...

I met a brilliant service provider—a woman who helped C-suite executives get clear on their personal brand. When I asked about her client experience, she said: “Oh, it’s completely custom. Every single one is different.” My eyebrows raised. And my business coach radar went off. Because “completely custom” sounds luxurious—until you realize it’s also completely unsustainable. She was overdelivering, undercharging, and staying stuck in the cycle of trading dollars for hours. So I asked her: What if you didn’t have to keep teaching your expertise from scratch? What if your...

I remember staring at my calendar—17 client calls booked for the week. Every hour filled. Every day color-coded and accounted for. I had built what some would call a “successful” business. But it didn’t feel like success. It felt like I was stuck in back-to-back Zoom sessions, trapped by my own creation. I loved my clients...but hated how I was living. And that’s when I realized something that changed everything: I hadn’t built a business—I had built a really demanding job. If your day’s are filled with client work, this week’s episode of the Breadwinning Business Women...
info_outlineIt’s already the middle of the month, and if you’re like many entrepreneurs, you may be feeling the weight of your goals right now.
Did you know last Friday was officially “Quitter’s Day?” It’s when 72% of us give up or start questioning our goals and if we can really make it happen this year.
But here’s the thing: You don’t have to quit.
I’m here to tell you that accountability could be the missing ingredient to making this year different.
In this week’s episode of the Breadwinning Business Women Podcast, I’m breaking down why accountability is the key to pushing through and finally scaling your business. It’s time to stop second-guessing yourself and start getting things done.
