I was recently featured in Voyage STL. I got to share my story and talk about how it led me to my business. It was so fun to reflect on how my story and experiences have led me right here. It couldn't be more timely with the launch of my course coming up so soon! Read the full article here! I hope sharing my story inspires you to do the same becau[...]
Why You Need to Incorporate Storytelling Into your Marketing Strategy Over the weekend I had the opportunity to drive up to Milwaukee with Jack, my 10 year-old. We saw the Bucks play the Golden State Warriors; it was absolute magic. I could fill page upon page with how special the actual game was. Seeing Jack sitting there on the edge of his seat, wide-e[...]
Do you know who you are talking to? If you are going to spend hours upon hours creating content to share online, do you know who it is for? I shared on Monday about how I have been able to show up in my business more authentically since really focusing on story-centered content, but the other key piece to that is that I got really specific about who I[...]
We are officially in launch month for my course: The Storytelling Advantage! I cannot believe it is going to be here so soon! I have been working on this course for months and it is so special to me. I really cannot wait to share it with the world and witness the ways it transforms businesses and lives. One of the biggest benefits of the approach I am teach[...]
Hi friends. I sat down to write this blog post with a very specific topic in mind. And then my phone flashed a breaking news update. Another school shooting. This one in Iowa. On the first day back after winter break. And I am gutted. Again. How can I sit down and write about parenting and walking through something new with Jack when other parents arenâ€[...]
I don’t know how to start this post because I don’t even know what day it is. Merry Christmas? We have entered the weird black hole that is the last week of the year. It still feels like a holiday but we’re kind of working but kids are home but not on normal routines. It’s a little chaotic but kind of lazy. My brain and body are confused. This proba[...]
I had the opportunity a few weeks ago to connect with folks at Canvas Rebel and to be featured in their online magazine. I got to share my story and talk about how it led me to my business. It was so much fun to dive into those pieces, especially because it is exactly what I'm teaching right now in my course! My story and lived experiences have infor[...]
I have always loved Christmas. The extra sparkle, the lights, the music, the cheer, the tradition…give me all the Christmas magic. Is it a lot? You bet. Would I trade any of it? Not a chance. Christmas with kids is 100X more stressful and 1000X more worth it. We are decking the halls, baking the cookies, buying all the gifts, and seeing all the ligh[...]
I have found myself talking a lot about “authentic voice” lately. The more female business owners I interact with the more I start to learn and uncover all the ways we have been taught and conditioned to shrink ourselves, cover up with a mask, and alter our voice. We start showing up in spaces how we think we are supposed to instead of how we want to. T[...]
I have a lot of conversations with people about what to say to someone going through a hard time (and sometimes what not to say). It is partially my story, partially the fact I’m a pretty open book about struggle, and partially I just have one of those personalities that makes people want to tell me things (it’s been that way my whole life). Regardless[...]
