A few months ago I had @Shannon Boyer on my show Podcasting Business School and she convinced me to start a Skool community. 9 weeks later I have 486+ podcasters in my community.....SO.....it's going pretty well so far! If you are a podcaster (or even a little pod-curious) come on over to Podcasting Business School and learn how to grow and monetize your show.

One of the things I love most about what I do is helping purpose-driven entrepreneurs showcase their expertise to help others and build their businesses. So it means a lot to be selected as one of this year's Oh Yes I Can Women in Business 2026 campaign, She Means Business: 30 Women in 30 Days! I started my online business after having two kids in my 40s during COVID and needing to have more flexibility in my life, not because I was fleeing the 9-5 cubicle. I loved my previous career - it was very rewarding! But moving into the online space allowed me to take all the education, experience, and expertise I had built over 25+ years and use it to help others do the same thing. September 22 is National Women in Business Day, but Oh Yes I Can Women in Business decided one day wasn't enough. Throughout September, they're shining a light on 30 women from the OYIC community, and I'm honored to be one of them. And, I'm in some great company! You can meet all 30 women in this year's eMagazine: https://canva.link/83fj2my29s2luhc Thank you so much to VIP member @Traci Poe for including me in such a meaningful way!

Kids are back in school, and there's a ton happening in the CLASSIFIEDS this month! @Steve Gast This one's for you!

One of the most important things I've learned since becoming an online entrepreneur is that the most important thing you can do to grow your business is to build relationships. Many of us (myself included) have rushed to promote our groups and services that we care so deeply about. And it only makes sense - we are excited about what we are doing! Today, I'd like to invite you to take a step back and introduce yourself to the group by answering the following questions: 1. Who are you personally? 2. Who are you professionally? 3. What is something you love doing outside of work? 4. What is something surprising about you? As you open up and make more connections, you will find that not only are people more interested in what you do, but they will also be more interested in helping you make connections with other people they know! 😉 After you introduce yourself, please scroll through the other introductions and add a comment to someone you have something in common with or would like to know more about. 😊 Please add your introduction in the comments below! ⬇️
