When You Don't Know What's Next...
<p>You don't always know exactly what the next step in business is going to look like, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't take it.

Are You Quitting or Are You Done?
<p >In today's episode, I'm breaking down the difference between quitting and being done, because there is a very real distinction between the two, and understanding that difference matters.</p> <p >I may get a little off topic throughout this conversation, but I keep coming back to what spiritually goes into quitting and how that can impact you, your decisions, and your business.

What Does It Mean to Coast in Business? pt.2
<p >Last week, I talked about what it looks like to coast in business, and today I'm taking that conversation a step further. Because coasting well doesn't happen by accident. There are some essential things I need in place to be able to slow down, step back, and still keep my business moving.</p> <p >For me, one of the biggest things is knowing where my revenue is coming from, even when I'm not showing my face, creating content, or actively selling every single day.

In Case No One Has Said This to You
<p>As I close out this season with my first flip property, I took a moment of reflection where I really needed to redefine the way I look at success.

So many of us set mountain-high...
