Respond vs. React

A Distinction...

In even the most challenging situations, we have the power to choose how we behave. We can respond or react. One behavior can lead to possibilities and solutions, while the other can lead to more challenges.

When Your Friend Becomes Your Client

Let’s talk about something that every Creative Business Owner has wrestled with at some point- doing business with friends.

Offering your service to friends can be meaningful, but it can also be messy.

  • Maybe a friend asks for a “hook-up.”
  • Maybe you offer your product or service at a discount, because that just feels like the right things to do.
  • Or maybe you bend your usual process and make special concessions, only to end up feeli...

Living in Flow vs. Striving for Work-Life Balance

How many of you hard-working, goal & growth-oriented Business Owners have said:

  • "I'm so tired"
  • "I'm so busy"
  • "I can't seem to catch my breath"

I’ve been there.
