Happy Holidays + a gift for you :-)

Happy Holidays!

I hope this post finds you well and enjoying a relaxing + replenishing week with loved ones.

This is my favorite time of year. I’m a girl who loves traditions, and this time of year is chock full of them, which suits me just fine :-)

For me the holiday season begins with the preparation of the Thanksgiving meal (while watching the parade, of course), is punctuated with a number of “must-do” traditions (like cookie baking, tree selection & decorating and riding around to look at all the Christmas lights in our PJs), and wraps up with fireside-sitting and goal setting on January 1st with the completely terrible Mummers Parade on in the background (if you’re from the Philadelphia area, you know what this is).

There’s something about the ritual of doing these meaningful and heartfelt traditions year after year that warms my soul in a way that few other things can. I just love it.

More and more in recent years, I’ve come to recognize the importance of rituals in other areas of my life -- my morning meditation, my yoga practice, my evening journaling and reading. 

Those things, similar to the holiday traditions, give me something to come back to, look forward to and count on. They nurture my soul.

With that in mind, I want to invite you to join me for a soul-nurturing start to 2017.

My free Mindset Reset Challenge is starting January 2nd and will offer you 5 days of mini-rituals to help you reset your mindset for true happiness and success on your terms in the new year.

Each day of the challenge you’ll receive a short audio from me and a loving action step to help you “reset” your mindset and embrace self-love and growth. 

Together, we’ll uncover your Mindset Blocks and work to move beyond them so that you can enter into 2017 untethered by your limiting beliefs and ready to expand into your true potential!

This free Mindset Reset Challenge is my holiday gift to you. (I hope you like it!) 

Click here to register for this lovely free event, and you’ll receive more details about it as January 2nd approaches.

Today on The Clarity Confessions, I am so excited to introduce you to my very good friend, Racheal Cook. Racheal and I have known one another for many years, and it’s such been a pleasure watching her and her business develop into the powerhouse it is today! (I’m talking about multiple 6-figure success while working 20-30 hours/week!)

Besides being a super successful entrepreneur and mama to 3 little ones, Rach also holds her MBA, is a green smoothie enthusiast, restorative yoga advocate, and award winning business strategist who believes entrepreneurs can grow their dream business while living their dream life, right now. Amen!

Even cooler, Racheal’s business is so successful that she was able retire her hubby from his full-time job, and he now works alongside her. 

Above all else, Rach is committed to building a lifestyle and business she adores, which means she only works 20-30 hours/week and schedules in lots and lots of family time and self-care. 

This gal walks her talk, and believe me when I say you’re going to get so much out of her Clarity Confession.

The Real Reason You’re Not Making Money, Not Getting Clients & Feel Totally Stuck

The Real Reason You’re Not Making Money, Not Getting Clients & Feel Totally Stuck

For a long time (7 years to be exact), I couldn’t figure out why my business wasn’t working.

Sometimes the stuff I was doing would bring in a client, make me a little money, deliver a small win, but MOST of the time it didn’t. I felt like everyone else out there had it “figured out”, and I just couldn’t crack the successful business code.

So, I kept trying tactic after tactic, chasing idea after idea, hoping the next one would work. But the truth is, nothing was really working. Things were broken, and I was putting bandaids on the symptoms without looking for a cure for the problem under those surface-level problems.

Lack of clients, lack of money, unsuccessful sales, slow email list growth, lack of engagement and feeling totally stuck and unclear are all symptoms of just ONE thing…
