So, I’m just going to be honest here...and I’m wondering if anyone else here has gone through this too.😅 I want to support my family. I want to do work I love. I want to build something meaningful that I’m proud of… something that actually helps people. But every time it comes down to actually charging for the work I do, it just doesn't go the way I want it to. I keep finding myself in situations where I’m doing good work, and I know it’s good work, but the people who want the work done either can’t pay, or they say “later,” or they keep pushing it off, or they expect things now while the payment is eventually. And I get it. I really do. Life is life. I have grace for people. I know what it’s like to struggle. But at the same time, I’m like… okay but I also have bills? I also have children? I also need to live? And the part that messes with my head is that I start feeling guilty for even thinking that way. Like I’m supposed to just keep giving, keep holding it together, keep pouring out, keep being “understanding.” But understanding doesn’t pay rent. And compassion doesn’t keep the lights on. And yet… I still feel guilty saying that. And I’m just sitting here asking myself, why? Why do I feel bad for wanting to be compensated for something I’m actually doing? Is it boundaries? Is it confidence? Is it conditioning? Is it just this season? I honestly don’t know. So I’m asking...does anyone else deal with this? That tug-of-war between wanting to do good work and wanting to be kind… but also wanting to not drown? If you’ve figured out how to navigate that, I’m listening. If you’re in it, I see you. 💕 Just… tell me I’m not the only one.😭

AI automation isn’t just the future, it’s happening now. Businesses know they need AI, but most don’t know where to start. That’s where the real opportunity is. Right now, 80% of businesses need automation, yet only a small fraction are using it effectively. That gap is where AI agency founders are stepping in and turning automation into real revenue. If you’re thinking about launching an AI agency or offering automation services, here’s what actually matters: - Businesses don’t care about AI, they care about results. Focus on efficiency, cost savings, and revenue growth. - You don’t need to be a developer. The right frameworks and tools can help you build solutions fast. - Selling AI services is easier when you solve real problems. Every industry has bottlenecks AI can fix—you just need to identify them. Where Most People Get Stuck (And How to Move Past It) 1. They try to learn everything at once. Instead, pick one niche, one AI tool, and one problem to solve. Master that first. 2. They focus too much on the tech. What matters is how businesses use it. The best AI agencies sell solutions, not software. 3. They don’t have a system for getting clients. Learning how to automate client acquisition is just as important as building AI solutions. Once you crack these three things, building and scaling an AI agency becomes a real possibility. The question is—are you positioning yourself to take advantage of this shift? If you're serious about turning AI into a real business, let’s talk. Ask me anything.

Here we are, saying goodbye to 2024 and hello to 2025! As I sit here with my coffee (because how else does one reflect?), I’m feeling both proud and excited. This past year was a whirlwind of work deadlines, family chaos, and more “Mom, what’s for dinner?” moments than I can count—but we made it. This year taught me that progress doesn’t have to be perfect; it just has to be consistent. Whether it was finding time for freelance projects or sneaking in a few gaming sessions after bedtime, every little step forward added up. And let’s not forget the small wins, like perfecting a new recipe or sticking to a routine for more than a week (big deal in mom life!). As 2025 rolls in, I’m keeping things simple with these three intentions: - Show up every day, even when it’s messy. - Focus on what truly matters (spoiler: it’s not the laundry). - Celebrate every win, big or small. To all of you amazing folks juggling your own goals, challenges, and victories—thank you for being part of this journey with me. Let’s make 2025 a year of growth, connection, and joy. What’s one thing you’re excited about tackling in the new year? Let’s share and cheer each other on! 💪✨ Happy New Year, friends! Here’s to new chapters and endless coffee refills. 🥂☕

It’s December 24th, and let me tell you—it’s been a day. Between cooking up a storm for our holiday feast, cleaning the house, and keeping the kids entertained, it’s been full-on chaos. But honestly? It’s the kind of chaos that feels like harmony in its own messy way. By the end of it, when everyone’s around the table and the laughter fills the room, I just know it’ll all be worth it. These are the moments that make the holidays special. Merry Christmas in advance, everyone! I’ll be signing off until the 26th… or maybe tomorrow, who knows? I’ll be too busy soaking up the family time to keep track. Wishing you all a festive season filled with love, laughter, and a little less chaos than mine! 🎄✨ What’s your favorite part of your holiday prep? Let me know before I disappear into the Christmas madness!

The New Year is right around the corner, but here’s the thing, discipline doesn’t magically appear on January 1st. It’s something you can start building right now, one small habit at a time. 1. Start Small Discipline is like a muscle—it grows with consistent effort. Pick one small habit you can commit to daily, like drinking a glass of water first thing in the morning or spending 5 minutes tidying up before bed. 2.Create a Routine Having a routine makes it easier to stick to habits. it’s all about prepping the night before, writing my to-do list or setting up breakfast so mornings feel less chaotic. 3.Track Your Progress There’s something so motivating about seeing how far you’ve come. Whether it’s a journal, an app, or just a checklist on your fridge, tracking your wins keeps you accountable. 4. Be Kind to Yourself You’re not going to get it perfect every day, and that’s okay. What matters is that you show up and keep trying. Progress, not perfection, is the goal. Discipline isn’t about waiting for the New Year to start fresh, it’s about starting now with small, intentional choices.
