What are you working on? What are your plans for your business for the next 8 weeks? This will be fun to see what fun things you have planned, or what irritating things you have planned.

Do you have a Black Friday offer? I know they make me groan, too. However, they are a good way to get folks into your business. Below is the first post to my email list. I am getting my offer out now. (It may be lame, but it's how I am rebelling against the normal) Would love your thoughts. ✨ “You’re not behind—you’re just overstimulated.” What if this December didn’t demand more of you— but restored you? You don’t need another push-hard plan. You need two grounded mornings to reset your energy and steady your income. That’s what the Cashflow Calm Challenge was built for—sensitive achievers who crave repair, not performance. 📅 Dec 1–2 🕘 9–11 am EST ☕ Online, cozy, wherever you are Join for $27 (normally $97) before Nov 26. → Reserve Your Spot Now

I did not know I had riding in the back of a medical transport to the hospital was in my bucket list. Yet, there I was. Long story short I had numbness on the right side of my face went into ER and although the test came back clear they sent me to the hospital for more test. Now as a speaker here is where I would create more tension and draw out the story but I will not do that to you. All the test came back clear or normal. I did not have a stroke. So what did I learn about business in the back of the medical transport? 1. Strap in business can be bumpy. Although the ride was smooth and not hurried. ( no siren sound or lights) Five straps held me in the gurney. I was held in tight. 2. It is okay and enjoy the squirrel moments when your mind wanders. It went like this. “What deep message is God trying to tell me about this? Oh. Look that is the brightest pink truck I have ever seen” “ What should I be learning for this experience? Wow, that palm tree forms the most perfect ball. So high in the air.” 3..Be flexible. Life throws us curve balls. I had to cancel five appointments. And was in the hospital for 27 hours. In the past that would have been a concern of letting people down and not professional (I’ve had a coach who praised one of her team for making sales calls while her son was in surgery. Really! ) Bonus: Ask for help. In the hospital I was consider a fall risk. So I was “locked” down. Nurses called it jail. They had an alarm on the bed that screamed at me to get back in bed and called the nurse. I had to call a nurse to get out of bed to walk to the bathroom. It was uncomfortable to hit that button when I was really capable to go on my own. But there was something comforting about knowing someone would show up for me. What do you need? Ask we can help you get out of “”jail” or If ya need I will break you out!

Not literally. She asked me when I take time off for me? I said not often. She said, but that is what you tell others to do. Ouch! She was right. She caught me. I was not permitting myself to step away from my business just for me. I step away for family obligations, for vacations, or long weekends. But not to do something for just me. It did feel like a slap in the face. However, I am grateful. So, I set up a facial appointment. And a lunch appointment with a friend. Sometimes, the truth stings yet, I needed to hear it. How about you? What are you doing to take care of yourself?
