Are you nervous about going all in on your busines Are you nervous about going all in on your business because you're afraid of what people will think about you? 

This advice from @stumclaren is so true! Start thinking about THEM and your whole attitude will change!
Have you been diagnosed with Comparisonitis? Sym Have you been diagnosed with Comparisonitis? 

Symptoms include: 
✓ Scrolling Insta with envy. 
✓ Feeling inferior wondering if it's all worth it. 
✓ Wanting to throw in the towel because your feed isn't as aesthetically perfect as influencers. 

You're comparing your Year One to their Year Ten! 

I'll let you in on a little secret...Once upon a time, they were new also. They probably also had Comparisonitis. They also compared themselves to othrs. 

I know this because I helped many business owners launch and grow their brand, and I heard them suffering from these same symptoms. 

You need to run your own race, at your own pace. The only person you should be comparing yourself to is YOU. 

This quote from Maya Angelou says it best, "Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better."

📣 Cheering you on!
Stop hiding behind perfectionism. 🛑 The truth Stop hiding behind perfectionism. 🛑

The truth is, using perfectionism as an excuse is another form of procrastination. 

I say this because I’M guilty of this! Embrace the messy. Do B+ work. Or better yet, C+! Because your hesitancy to put something out there that isn’t PERFECT is denying someone from hearing what you have to say. 

And they NEED to hear what you have to say. 

If you’re with me, comment “C+” below!

I hate this picture. Can you guess why? ⁠ ⁠ Yo I hate this picture. Can you guess why? ⁠
⁠
You guessed it. The sign on the desk "Everyday I'm Hustlin'". ⁠
⁠
No one should be "hustling" every day. Thinking that you have to work super hard 365 days a year. Or comparing yourself to others who say "I have all of this because I work really hard", then thinking you're not working hard enough. ⁠
⁠
What is this doing to our mental and physical health? ⁠
⁠
I was SHOCKED when I did a poll on my IG stories and found that 85% of the people who responded stated that they felt burnt out once in a while or all the time. That's just too much. ⁠
⁠
The old me would have told you that if you want to be successful, you need to work, work, work. And when I look back on my annual goals, I am nowhere on that list. I never prioritized my own well-being. And I'm paying the price for it today. ⁠
⁠
It's time to put a stop to the hustle-culture and prioritize self-care, sleep, movement, relationships, hobbies, physical and mental health. When we do this we are healthier individuals. Because without our health, nothing you do to build your business is worth a hill of beans. ⁠

What do you do to prevent burnout and put YOU first?
Welcome Spring! Where I live in Florida, every d Welcome Spring! 

Where I live in Florida, every day is Summer. But for me, Spring isn't just a season with warmer weather, but a season for growth. 

I've just come out of a long winter (figuratively) and looking forward to the growth that Spring will bring.

What are you looking forward to this Spring?
I have a confession to make...⁠ I have no idea w I have a confession to make...⁠
I have no idea what matcha tea is. 🤨⁠
⁠
In the name of full transparency, I also must confess that there are times I want to throw in the towel. I fight to avoid burnout and would love to just grab a pint of Häagen-Dazs and binge watch some Pride and Prejudice (the Colin Firth version). ⁠
⁠
Can any other business owners relate?! ⁠
⁠
For me though, I love my job and I'm not ready to quit. I found the secret isn't to push through, but to push reset and that can happen any time you need to. You don't need a new year or new month to start fresh. You just need a new day.⁠
⁠
I must admit, it feels better to get that off my chest and out into the world. ⁠

Now it’s your turn…’fess up!
Am I the only one who has trouble setting boundari Am I the only one who has trouble setting boundaries with clients? No? Just me?

I’m not sure if it goes back to my people-pleaser days or a throwback to when my kids were little and it was just easier to give in to them. It may also be because clients will call me their “friend” and then I have guilt issues. 

But I find that sometimes I let clients walk all over me and I NEED to establish boundaries! 

How do you keep your business relationships professional, deliver stellar service, while also setting boundaries that protect YOU?
