Roadblocks
I have officially been derailed from my master plan. Life happens. When your child is sick, you really can’t focus on much else. I hate to say I had some things that took priority over my dreams. It was so stressful and although I was aware at the time that it was pulling me away […]
Stay Positive
So I am drowning myself in affirmations because there is so much potential in negative energy in the world and it can suck you in. It’s literally like moving mountains to push through your fear and be your best successful entrepreneur self. Not easy. On my ride to work I listen to self-development audio books, […]
I Have Faith

Cultivating Greatness
I have been trying to do everything all at once, and dreaming big. I am learning that in order to be successful, I need to allow myself moments of quiet as well. I am picking away at my business plan, but my quest to open an artist run gallery and cafe requires me to focus […]
Dream Big
In my quest to conquer the world and become self-employed, I anticipate I will have to make sacrifices and I will have to compromise. If I just allow myself to dream big, I can take a hit here and there, right? I am working on my first pass on a business plan, laying the groundwork […]
