Of course, most businesses take a lot more capital than that to get started, and it doesn’t always make
Over the past few months, I partnered with Certified Core Energetics Practitioner and Money Witch Bryn Bamber to host a series of three workshops designed to help women entrepreneurs shift their relationship with money, make strategic financial decisions, and feel more confident about investing in their business. We’re now giving away access to the recordings for free! The workshops came out of a conversation, where we shared some of the issues that we saw our
As November wraps up, it’s time for my monthly review. Did I stay on course with my plans? Honestly, nope. And guess what? That’s totally okay. Life has a way of throwing in unexpected side quests, and this month was no exception. I signed up for two amazing opportunities that required way more preparation than I anticipated.

A tiny, 8 week old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel has been running me ragged for the past two months, and I’m finding it even more difficult than usual to follow through on things. Planning is also a challenge, and generally it feels like my business is falling apart around me lately. 😂 However, October 1 is a perfect chance for a fresh start, and to
