Good morning and Happy Friday! I wanted to share some wins. 😊 I had my Grand Opening for Alloy Personal Training Greensboro last week and we had an amazing turnout from family, friends, members, and our community. I was (and AM) so grateful for the show of support for our small business! 🎉 During one of the recent office hours or Achievers calls, Kim was talking about manifesting something small yet unique. I decided that I wanted to see a beautiful white owl. The very same afternoon I happened to be dog sitting for someone, and I looked up and saw a white owl sitting on the mantle above their fireplace. I got chills but also couldn’t help the laugh that came out. 😄 Finally, an opportunity has come up to allow me to be able to focus more of my time on my business, which I’m also beyond grateful for and really excited about!! 🎉💪🏻

When I was 15 years old, I had a dream. I wanted to become a coach, a mentor, a teacher. I had no idea HOW I would ever achieve that dream, but life knew how. My journey led me to building self-confidence, mastering sales, and becoming an entrepreneur, only to realize I needed support and systems, and that led me to franchising. Franchising is where I spent eight years being average, stuck, stale, and going through the motions until I finally got motivated to do something about it. In my ninth year, I woke up and rapidly changed EVERYTHING. For the next couple of years, I was thinking into my results every day, getting better and better until I had mastered all parts of my business. I mastered my business by mastering MYSELF. For the next 13 years, I had something truly magical. I went on autopilot, enjoying the ride, but when I was called higher within that same business, the growth got easier and easier at each level. I had created extraordinary success in my business, but looking back, I can see that all of it was preparing me for the dream I had when I was 15 - to become a coach to all of you, to create The Zee Suite®. While starting over as an entrepreneur means starting over, I didn’t start from the same place I started as an entrepreneur when I was 25. I brought all the lessons I have learned, and more importantly, the person I have become. Today, as the CEO of The Zee Suite ®, as an entrepreneur in her first real year of business, I’m failing forward all over again, every day! And here’s what I’ve come to realize… Success in business ownership means feeling the fear and doing it anyway. We have to hear “No” and work to get “Yeses”. We have to invest money and be willing to lose it. This is what I’m living again, every day now. In March of 2025, I started coaching a small group of friends, failing forward to find my voice as a coach, developing lesson plans and ideas. Then I launched The Suite Deal in November of 2025, and it went so well that I opened enrollment in February of 2026. Then, I hired a marketing company, and I lost money. So, I started a grassroots campaign, and I started winning. Then I hired another marketing company, and again, I lost money, but I kept my head down and kept finding more of you through referrals and my own outreach. It was a DALY effort of failing forward.

The quarterly impact survey I teased you about is ready. I will send the link to all of you by Friday of this week. Please take 2 minutes to answer the 10-12 multiple choice questions. This information is going to help me direct our growth in new ways and share our growth with the franchising industry at large. Data speaks! THANK YOU in advance.

Over the last two weeks, I taught you how to start manifesting the small things (module 5). Now I want to hear the stories. Actually, we - AS A COMMUNITY- need to hear the stories. You didn't invest in yourself and this community to stay the same, and I'm not teaching this work because I like hearing myself talk. 😂 I'm teaching it because I want you to CHANGE YOUR LIFE. So here's your midweek check-in: Are you wielding your power for what you DON'T want more easily than for what you DO want? Great. Why? It's just more practiced. That's all. Keep going. Because you ARE using your creative power every single day. Now start noticing the evidence. An unqualified lead came in. It's still a lead. Someone almost bought but backed out. It's still an almost sale. You caught yourself thinking the old thought and redirected it. THAT'S A WIN. Don't dismiss these things. They are signs of movement. Your job is to milk the abundance out of them. “Leads are coming!” “People want what I'm selling!” “Look at me catching that old thought!” “Something is shifting!” Your reaction matters. Milk the abundance out of it and keep building momentum. Milk the “why me?” out of it and you keep practicing the very thing you're trying to change. Awareness is a win. A small sign is a win. A shift in your reaction is a win. SEE IT. CELEBRATE IT. KEEP GOING. I'm making you share because I am IN THIS for your success. I'm holding you accountable to doing the DALY work. Every single one of you. ❤️ 👇 Now share ONE way you've been wielding your creative power over the last week. A BIG manifestation. A small manifestation. A sign. A shift. A thought you caught. The exact OPPOSITE of what you wanted. Something you worried about and then watched happen. A moment when you realized, “OH WOW. I created THAT too.” 😂 YES, THOSE COUNT. Let's normalize those stories too. This isn't about getting it “right” all the time. It's about becoming AWARE of where you're directing your creative power.
