Yes, I know. Completely fallen off the Podcast band wagon. I can fully admit it. BUT ya girl it’s still here. Still working on living on the good life and I hope you are too. Here’s a couple things that have helped me!
Just throwing some ideas out there if you’re feeling stuck in the book of face. There is about 10 million other ideas out there but figured one at a time.
Everyone can be keyboard warriors, but who cares? Do they pay your bills? Are they helping others? If the answer is no, then do you sister.
Something that will change the game for your business if you feel stuck.
We all have potential it’s just a matter of putting it to play and getting out of those boring routines.
Ever see a number and just get so excited you know that number could be yours? I hadn’t either until today.
Just starting this out no equipment, no cool headphones, no mic, just a passion to finally get it done!
