Why 90 Day Plans How do you create a 90 day plan? I spoke about this topic last week on my Tuesday live on Facebook. If you missed it, this is awesome because now you get the replay, and the article, and all the links all in one place. Make sure you check that stuff...
Fall Is For Reflection It's November and I consider November the very end of the year. You could continue building goals and try and distract yourself for another 90 days. Those who know me know I like to work in those 90-day Madwoman Cycles. But I think at this point...
Networking Makes Me Tired Conferences are exhausting. And yes, I know I have been to three in the last 6 months (Blogher, Rockstar Marketing Bootcamp, Ewomen Network). There's an element of content overwhelm going on. But aside from the sheer number of...
Marketing Makes The Business I just spent three days at a Rockstar Marketing conference. If there is one thing I have learned from being business over the last 2 years, its that no matter how amazing you, your products, and services are, you will not make money if no...
Starting a new business means you are your first admin. When you think of all the things that should be on your entrepreneur schedule, how do you decide when you can go from being the support staff, to being the boss? Visioning is deep work, but you can’t go to the deep end until you have mastered the kiddie pool.
Its almost the end of the year which means we start to assess if we are accomplishing all that we wanted for these 365 revolutions around the sun. Have you been efficient and productive with the first few months of the year? Or have you been too distracted,...
I want to tell you the best kind of Thanksgiving story. The kind that starts with giving and ends with the thanks. Sometimes, when building our businesses, we forget that we started them with the intention of being of service to others. If we can get back to that...
A Network For Women Entrepreneurs The Ewomen Network is designed to help entrepreneur women grow into their greatness for the explicit purpose of changing the world. When good women make good money, they do good things. And its true. Earning money isn’t about greed,...
To Work or To Sleep? Most entrepreneurs are workaholics by default. The nature of birthing a business is to be all in, 24/7 and the good ones are also at the top of their game. And therein lies the tension. To work or to sleep? If the goal is productivity, what...
A resolution is about deciding and you can do that at any time, and all year long. Who are you resolved to be? In this season of Kwanzaa, I am reminded to be an engaged community participant. No more crabs in a barrel. I want a world where women help each other succeed. That’s my vision for the Femme Totale community.
The Big Performance Review Talk It's that time of year again: annual review season. Now we are all familiar with annual reviews at work. Those horrible conversations where you are waiting for your boss to tell you all the things that they've been harboring for the...
No Drama In My Life I have a burn list going now for the last 60 days. It's the end of the year so as soon as October came I was all about going drama free, and maximizing what I want out of 2017. This came about in direct response to an excess of drama from certain...
The Startling Reality of Commitment to Allyship. Only 4% of people who claim to be allies have the temerity to last more than a news cycle. I recently read an article from Theresa M. Robinson who does work specifically around empowering and coaching White would-be...
