Let’s start the week on a motivational Monday no Let’s start the week on a motivational Monday note! 💪 I have a productivity hack that makes life SO much easier in the end. It’s a quick, 3-step process that goes like this: 1. Turn off all distractions. 2. Write down everything you have to do. Set a timer for 5 minutes so you don’t get overwhelmed. ⏲ 3. Do your most dreaded task first to get it out of the way. Every time I’m dreading starting my to-do list, I do this exercise. It gets my head in the game, and allows me to focus. Do you have a productivity hack that helps you get through the week and feel like you’re coming out ahead (or at least not AS behind)? . . #coaches #coacheslead #coachespiritual #coachesofinstagram #spiritualentrepreneur #spiritualentrepreneurship #spiritualentrepreneurs #healers #healersofinstagram #healersoftheworld #healersofthelight #Healers #contentmarketing
Have you ever noticed that most people are always Have you ever noticed that most people are always in such a rush? Or how when you ask someone how they are doing the response is always “BUSY!” Hey, STOP. ✋ (Did your mind immediately say “collaborate and listen”? 🎶 Because if it did, we might just be best friends.) But seriously... Just take a breather now. Slow down. Pause for a second. Unclench your jaw. Take your tongue off the roof of your mouth. Lower your shoulders. Big breath in. Big breath out. Close your eyes and repeat. 🧘 It’s easy to get wrapped up in your day—let everything fly by in a whirl of chaos and to-dos. So this is your reminder to take a break here and there. Look around, and be mindful. I seriously need to hear this too! This is your friendly reminder today to take a pause and slow down. . . #coaches #coacheslead #coachespiritual #coachesofinstagram #spiritualentrepreneur #spiritualentrepreneurship #spiritualentrepreneurs #healers #healersofinstagram #healersoftheworld #healersofthelight #Healers #contentmarketing

Let’s talk about how we’re spending our day/what a typical Saturday looks like for us. A little behind-the-scenes action for you… 🤗 Today, we’re spending some much needed time with the family and visiting a friend! We're going to go to the beach and explore local shops.

How’s your energy level? People say it all the How’s your energy level? People say it all the time, but seriously, this week has been LONG. Like LOOOOOOOONG. Are you with me? You know that ONE thing that just drains ALL your energy. Every. Single. Time… ❤️ - Yep, I’ve got one (or a few) of those. 👍 - Not really… huh? We definitely have the automatic-exhaustion thing, and it’s exhausing when I have to drive every day! I like driving, but I like it only about 3 days of the week. But when I have to do it everyday of the week, then I don't want to go ANYWHERE after the week is over. It’s silly, but it drains us without fail. And we avoid it when possible it but can only take it in small doses. Mostly (honestly), we’re happy it’s Friday. And we're going to set a word to recharge ourselves. Our word is: RE-ENERGIZE What drained you this week? Share it with us in the comments and what your word of focus is to recharge yourself. . . #coaches #coacheslead #coachespiritual #coachesofinstagram #spiritualentrepreneur #spiritualentrepreneurship #spiritualentrepreneurs #healers #healersofinstagram #healersoftheworld #healersofthelight #Healers #contentmarketing
Ever been motivated by what others think? 🙋🙋🙋 We’re all constantly working toward something for ourselves. Whether it’s to be healthier, smarter, financially stable, less stressed, happier, whatever. It’s constant, and that’s life. But a question we often forget to ask when we decide what we’re working on is “WHO are we working on this thing for?” We have a secret: If you’re not intrinsically motivated (aka working on something for YOURSELF), it’s pretty likely you’re not doing it for the right reasons. It’s also likely the thing you’re working on won’t stick or come to fruition if you’re not doing it for you. And even if it does, it’s probably not going to feel as great as you thought it might. This is something it took us a LONG time to learn. So, if you’re willing, take it from us: Work on yourself, for yourself. Say it with us (in your head or out loud): 🗣 “I’m working on myself, for myself.” 💪 And then take a moment to examine what you’re working on and if you’re doing it, truly, for you. Feel free to share all about it in the comments. . . #coaches #coacheslead #coachespiritual #coachesofinstagram #spiritualentrepreneur #spiritualentrepreneurship #spiritualentrepreneurs #healers #healersofinstagram #healersoftheworld #healersofthelight #Healers #contentmarketing

We’re so proud of you, and so happy you’re here with us to close out the month. Thanks for being our friend here. 🧡
Fad diets aside, I think we ALL really know that t Fad diets aside, I think we ALL really know that the best way to get in shape is to be physically active consistently. You strengthen your physical self by training your body and muscles. The same is true for your emotions and mindset… You gotta flex and stretch to keep your mental strength in shape, too. It’s never easy starting anything. Working out for the first time, getting on stage to give a presentation in front of people for the first time, starting a business, starting a family… and this applies to any journey we start. But the more we do it, the more comfortable we become. And eventually, we get pretty good at it. We become stronger. When I first started my business online, I was terrified and thought it would never get easier. But now, for one of my businesses my testimonials and reviews from clients bring more clients. So, if you’re scared to do something today, do it anyway. Do it scared. And the more you do it, the stronger your courage muscle becomes. ✊🏿✊🏼
What does success look like to you? Pick ONE by re What does success look like to you? Pick ONE by reacting to this post. 👍 Someone who appears to have it all together ❤️ Honesty, even when it’s messy 😂 Being organized and having a plan 😢 A solid career with a good income 🥰 A strong circle of family and/or friends It’s hard to pick just one, isn’t it? That’s because success isn’t one-size-fits all. The good news? YOU get to decide what success looks like for you. So, what’s the first step toward getting there for you? Share it below.
A LOT of people get held up when it comes to getti A LOT of people get held up when it comes to getting sales online. Luckily, I’m kind of an expert at dealing with this. So, let’s talk it out. This is always my first piece of advice: First, we need to see why getting sales is a struggle for you. One of the most common struggles is the way you are going about trying to get sales. Is your website set up to get leads (opt-in) or to make sales (ecommerce)? If you are selling products like journals and planners, you need to identify the market your are selling them to and try listing them on marketplaces first to get your first sales. It's much easier when a marketplace already handles the marketing for you. All you have to do then is to use SEO and product images to get your product noticed. You can also use ads if you don't mind paying a few extra $. Typically, it’s just about getting over the fear about putting your stuff out there and using the skills you need to do that (SEO, ads, and even sales conversations if you work with clients). Is this you? Tell me what you feel you need help with in your business.
Hard work pays off. (How’s that for some #Moti Hard work pays off. (How’s that for some #MotivationMonday? 🙌) Sounds simple, huh? When we do well and succeed, it’s often because of the work, growth and challenges that get us there. We’ll avoid getting too philosophical today (because my brain just can’t handle that on a Monday 🤯), BUT I’m trying to keep something in mind this week that I wanted to share with you: The best view comes after the hardest climb. This year, I’ve been working toward _____ [insert a new, personal or business goal]. And let me tell you, it’s NOT been easy. But I know it’s not supposed to be easy, or the view wouldn’t be worth it. Keep going. And tell us what you’re climbing toward in the comments! 🏔
We HATE to be the ones to tell you this (because s We HATE to be the ones to tell you this (because surely no one else has brought it up at all this week), but the month is coming to an end. WHAT?! THAT WENT BY SO FAST… yeah, yeah, we know. But we’re all cool with it because at least summer is here, right?! 🌞🏖😎 Regardless, we still want to offer some motivation to keep going. The sun is out. Your momentum is building. And you’re doing great. Seriously. Something I’m really proud of and plan to keep up through next month is outsourcing more. It has really helped me this past month to outsource. What’s something you’re proud of from this month? We want to hear all about it in the comments.
It’s super easy to be hard on yourself. 📌 E It’s super easy to be hard on yourself. 📌 Even about silly things like forgetting something or saying the wrong thing or comparing yourself to someone in your Instagram feed… But I’d like to invite you to cut yourself some slack. Think of a few of the things you judge yourself for on a daily basis. Would you judge the same things as harshly of your closest friend? Your neighbor? A co-worker? Probably not. So, why aren’t you as generous with yourself as you are with others… with total strangers even? You deserve grace, you don’t have to be perfect and that doesn’t mean that you’re not strong or doing well. 💪🏽💪💪🏾 My message to you today: Be gentle with yourself. 🥰
Dear past self, You are totally worth your own t Dear past self, You are totally worth your own time. Do not give that time to others before you give it to yourself. And don’t accept less than what you want. It’s OK if something doesn’t feel right or good enough to you, regardless of how others feel about it. You can’t be afraid to grow, to try new things and to move forward. Even if you think that shiny new job or business idea would be perfect for you, chances are that it would only drain your energy. Been there. Done that. You don't have to do it again. Also, take it easy on the take-out. You’ll thank me later. Love, Me
Okay, get ready… take notes! 📓 I want to shar Okay, get ready… take notes! 📓 I want to share a little-known, fun fact about the online marketing industry. In my line of work, something we never do is get any sleep... at least when I was first starting. Just kidding! A fun fact is that we get to play any music we want, be at home with our kiddos, and truly be creative. While I notice it SO often, people typically have NO idea. I mean how many online sellers do you know can create an idea from nothing and build it into a business? A lot of them. So, I wanted to give you the inside scoop. 😝 Were you surprised or could you have guessed? What about you? Is there something in your line of work or daily routine that people wouldn’t know? Share with us—we’re all ears! 👂
Picture the happiest moment in your life. (Just go Picture the happiest moment in your life. (Just go with me for a second.) Are you picturing it? Good. I’ll bet the most vivid part about this memory isn’t what someone else did -- I’m guessing it’s how it made you *feel* that’s really sticking with you. Good or bad, people tend to remember feelings over words or actions. So, most of the time, the best thing we can do is just be a caring person. All the other noise rarely matters. And one of my favorite quotes by one of my favorite people sums it up best: "People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did. But people will never forget how you made them feel.” -Maya Angelou It’s a good one to keep it in mind. 🥰
My daughter coming to talk to me after she gets ho My daughter coming to talk to me after she gets home from school is one of the little things in my life that brings me so much joy. I worked from home for so many years so that I could build that relationship with them and be there for them when they got home from school. I know it sounds so small and trivial, but every day that I get to experience this, I’m IMMEDIATELY put into a better, more grateful and more present mood. Without fail. It just makes me smile. Your turn! Don’t hold back. Which one of ‘the little things in life’ just brings you so much joy you can’t stand it? 🥰
If you really think about all the things you worry If you really think about all the things you worry about in a day, a week, a month… how many of them actually happen? (I’m willing to bet *MAYBE* 1%, if that.) And if they do happen, does worrying about it mean that you suffer any less when the thing you worried about arrives? My adult brain wants to prepare for the worst-case scenario in each situation because of the handful of times I experienced a worry come to fruition. Guess what? Worrying doesn’t prevent or help 99% of my situations or outcomes. It’s human nature to want to brace for impact. So it’s really tough to remind yourself that there’s likely no impact to brace for. You gotta retrain your brain. Luckily, I’ve found that the more I do this, the easier and more routine it becomes. What’s something you consistently find yourself worrying about? Tell us in the comments!
Hey, can we take a minute to focus on YOU? May Hey, can we take a minute to focus on YOU? May is officially here, so it seems like a good time to check in on how your year is going so far. (Oh, and let’s celebrate that we can finally stop running into that “It’s gonna be May” JT meme. 🙄 ) Does it freak you out a little that 1/3 of the year is already gone? Because HOW DID THAT HAPPEN ALREADY? If you’re like me, every day is different. Some days are filled with busy work (sending emails, taking calls, loading your to do list with new tasks…). Others are more relaxed, where you’re able to really think ahead and dream and plan. Some days I feel like a CEO. Some days I feel like a note taker. (And some days all I want to do is binge a good show and curl up on the couch and pretend responsibility doesn’t exist 🙋😂) Wherever you are in your 2021 journey, you should be proud of yourself. Remember that success and progress don’t always look the way we initially planned. So, whether you’re feeling like a boss or not, stop for a second, and think of something you’ve accomplished so far this year. Acknowledge the good, and don’t dwell on the could/should/would-haves. Whatever you are, just be the best that.
