EP382: How to Shake Things Up to Get the Business You Want in 2023
05/01/2023 Duração: 26minI have a theory – a lot of people prefer to suffer than break up with a toxic habit. I’m embarrassingly guilty of this… A few weeks ago, I broke up with a very bad *old* habit that snuck up on me→ acting like a victim. I’m embarrassed to admit it! It was affecting my business, my relationship with Jason, and my leadership. Even though I knew I had to change or things were going to get a lot worse – I procrastinated and waited until the pain was too great NOT to change. It’s amazing what happens when you decide and commit to necessary endings. It’s just a few weeks later and everything has turned around in my life. If you’re someone who’s ready to release toxic behavior out of your life, listen to my podcast today where I walk you through a 5 step process to release and shake things up. I hope it helps you make a major breakthrough this year!

EP381: How to Make Bold Moves By Overcoming Mindset Hurdles in 2023
29/12/2022 Duração: 21minMindset! It’s such a powerful tool for success and necessary for any jewelry business owner to reach their goals. Mindset is especially important for people who want to make at a minimum $100K in annual sales as a jewelry maker or designer. I’ve noticed, after mentoring thousands of people with their business, that there’s a lot of shame and avoidance around the topic of creating financial success and security – and using their jewelry business as a vehicle for wealth creation. Which got me thinking, why aren’t more women and creatives making what they really desire or deserve? On the podcast today, I share my vision for helping jewelry business owners cross the 100K in revenue mark in 2023. And I’ve decided that I want to commit to empowering a larger group of women (and men) to overcome the hurdles that hold you back from creating financial success for yourself. If you’re ready to play big or go home…. Listen to today’s episode! Here are the resources mentioned in the show: Sponsor: Jewelry Business O
