Ever heard the saying "from brick-and-mortar to click-to-order"? 

Whether you operate a one-to-one service style business like massage or personal training or a professional service such as bookkeeping, or real estate it's time to recognize that online business is NOT a fad and here to stay. The big question is, how can you adapt or add to your current offerings to keep a flexible, dynamic income flow?  

It's time to start considering that the changes in our lives collectively over the past year have changed us all on so many levels.  From data gathered between 2019 and 2021 predictions were that by 2040 95% of all business will be conducted online. Much of this data did not reflect the full impact of the last 1.5yrs that will no doubt speed this trend.  So, it's time to start considering how you can adapt.  

Beginning this transition does not have to be costly or require a complete change of your current services or...

When it's time to move away from your DIY business strategy it's a big decision.
First, congratulations this is a big step!

It's probably been a road to get to this point. Whether you have a case of controlitis or have been waiting for your budget to allow for it, you recognize it's time to grow, and doing all of the things yourself is holding you back. Or, even worse, you have a stagnant business, working looong hours, missing out on the three f's; (family, friends, and fun), or finding that you've lost your passion for this business ownership thing you were so excited to do and know you want to dig in and find some help.  Either way, it is a pivotal moment so let's celebrate you!  

Business help in the virtual world and assistant contractor roles are getting a bit confusing these days. Choosing the wrong role for the help you need, where you are in your business, or personality type can be costly. Understanding a bit of insider information can cut down on...

Recently, I heard a great idea that was so exciting to me, made such great sense that I went for it! Let me share with you this idea went from thought to complete in 4 weeks!  I want to share with you what I learned.   

What I learned about me:

1.  Wow, do I know how to waste time.
   With only 4 weeks to get so very much done, I didn't have time to waste. I had to be efficient, I had to write task lists, and I had to follow through.  I accomplished so much that it made me realize how little I actually do in a day in my normal routine.  
   
   
2. I used to be boring.
   The more excited I was talking about this idea, the more people were willing to join in. I noticed it wasn't the idea that was so exciting, it was me - I was talking and showing up differently!  I need to bring passion to everything I do.  
   
   
3. I am brave.
   I only know this because everyone kept telling me how brave I was. I didn't feel brave, I felt electric and I let that energy spur me...

If you are finding that there simply is not enough money coming in to meet all of your needs and wants, you may be considering a part-time gig.
Building a part-time home-based business is a great way to control your schedule and begin something new. Supplementing your income while remaining at a full-time job is an attractive idea that many people take on and become successful entrepreneurs even to the point of being able to leave a full-time job and thrive as a business owner.

There are a few things to consider when making this decision:

Is the home business in conflict with your full-time job?

Many employers will not be in support of competition from one of their employees. For example, someone working for a carpet cleaning company starting a home business offering cleaning services may find the boss a bit miffed. Often these issues force the employee to choose between keeping their full-time job or finding work elsewhere.

Time can be an issue.

The amount of time involved in...

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow once said, We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have already done.

OUCH, that hurts.

Sometimes the closest people to you are the ones that stop you from achieving greatness in your life. You go to them, full of excitement, to tell them all the great things that you want to do in life. You expect to hear wonderful words of encouragement and support from your close friends and family, only to be met with doubts and fear. Yikes!

This is where it is so important to stand tall, explain how much you've learned over the years, thank them for their concern, and well...keep it movin'.

They may not be saying these things to purposely hurt or discourage you, but they don't want you to fail or get hurt. So, to stop you from getting hurt down the road they try to stop you at the beginning.

Still, others may try to tell you why it can't be done and how there are many obstacles in the way that can't be moved. They look at...

I was so excited to jump into my first interview with Nicole Perry of Powerful Women Revealed Radio Show.  

I share my slow journey to the realization of the effects ingredients play in our health and longevity. After spending a couple (uh hum) decades in the fitness industry I knew how much false advertising there was out there. Diving into the home use products next was top of mind for me, but yet one of the hardest things to figure out!

Having many family members and friends experience disease more and more with ZERO family history, I just couldn't stand by any longer. 

1.  You can start small to make big changes.
2. Don't be fooled by greenwashing such as 
1. Clear
2. All-natural
3. Images and pictures of nature

We can all take small steps to transition to products that are toxic-free, cruelty-free, safe, and trusted. Creating a home environment that is safe for ourselves and...
