Podcast #1 [Reposted from 2016]: Time to Spring Clean!
No More Excuses: Monday Motivation podcast
HAPPY MONDAY MOTIVATION! Welcome back to the No More Excuses Podcast. Today I am reposting my VERY 1st PODCAST! I recorded this on March 21, 2016! And, it's STILL RELEVANT! I would say over the years I have gone through many adjustments in my podcast, including being more DIRECT, edgier, the occasional cuss words, but the reason I'm still here is because of YOU! Every time I've thought about stopping, someone emails me and says how much something I said resonated with them, helped them in some way, etc. etc. So... despite some pauses here and there, I'M STILL HERE!

Bottom line? You don’t need to tear others down to rise. You can be kind, bold, and unstoppable—all at the same time. Tune in,...

Podcast #424: Perfection is Bullshit! Get Moving!
No More Excuses: Monday Motivation podcast
HAPPY MONDAY MOTIVATION! Welcome back to another episode of "No More Excuses!" In this episode, I take a sledgehammer to perfectionism — the sneaky excuse that keeps you stuck. Perfection is Screwing You Over! You’re not waiting for the “right time,” you’re just scared. Success doesn’t come from waiting—it comes from DOING. The winners in business and life aren’t waiting for perfection. They take messy action, learn, and keep going. Listen in as I share that I am a "Recovering Perfectionist" and what I was challenged to do as my first homework assignment as a coach!...

Welcome to another episode of the "No More Excuses," podcast!
Get ready, as today's episode is all about the importance of having a solid business plan!
I’ve had clients who totally REFUSED to do a business planand others who were totally into the process and SO EXCITED about the outcome!
What about you? Have you completed [or at least started] your business plan?
If you haven't, or you don't see the importance, let me tell you - and in today's episode I share that it's like heading out on a road trip to an exciting destination without GPS to guide you!
A business plan serves as your guiding light, it provides clarity, direction, and focus.
Listen in as I share more in-depth on the 5 REASONS why having a business plan so important, and some examples of clients who were polar opposite on having one - or at least were at the beginning of working with me!
#1: A business plan forces you to clarify your vision and define your goals.
#2: A business plan helps you attract investors, stakeholders and impress lenders.
#3: Another key benefit of having a business plan is that it serves as a roadmap for decision-making.
#4: A business plan helps you monitor your progress and track your performance over time.
Finally, #5: A business plan instills confidence—not only in yourself but also in your team, your investors, and your customers.
NO MORE EXCUSES! It's time to start drafting your business plan. Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out, having a solid plan in place is essential for success.

And your BADASS Challenge of the Week: Write and Share your vision plan here in the comments or email me – [email protected]
Remember, success doesn't happen by chance—it's the result of careful planning, strategic execution, and unwavering determination.
And as always, stay Badass!
Cheers!
Sandi
