My guest in this special episode, Natali Morris, is a broadcaster, writer, speaker, co-founder and CFO of Morris Invest, and a former news anchor who has worked for NBC, CBS, and The Today Show.

If you truly want to build wealth, or even just make sure your family is taken care of as you start a new business endeavor, you have be creative with your money. In this episode, Natali and I discuss ex

My guest this week is someone that I absolutely adore! I've known Andrea Wenburg for a little while and I'm even working with her in a professional capacity so I can have a better understanding of my voice of influence and how I can use that to stand out in a crowded niche. In today's online marketplace, there are amazing new businesses, coaches, and consultants popping up all the time. Almost every niche these days is saturated and, unless you have a way to make yourself stand out among the crowd, your business might not be around for long. Having a clear understanding of who are, what you have to say, and how you're going to say it will stop you from being generic and forgettable. If you're failing to stand out in your niche, have a generic message, or are just not quite at the level of income you expected to be at by this point in your entrepreneurial journey ... make sure you really listen to what Andrea has to say in this powerful interview. In this episode, you learn how having a clear understanding of

You're going to fail at some point. Do you want to know why that's actually a good thing? We would all love to believe that our business will be a success from day one. But the reality is... that's just not the case. You will have failures in your business, multiple times. The good news? Repetitive losses in your business don't make you a loser. They make you an expert. If your business or launch isn't going exactly the way you'd hoped, or if you're one of the delusional people who believe their business will be immediately successful, you can't miss this episode. Losing helps you build better teams, execute your strategies more effectively, have better communication, increase your drive to succeed, and appreciate the wins. In this episode, I'm talking about the four values which losing provides, and how losing makes you better, stronger, and more strategic.   To learn more, visit the show notes.   If you would like to connect with me, and other purpose-driven online entrepreneurs, join us in the SweetLife En

It's no secret I kill technology. I don't have a technological bone in my body and this was made very apparent when it was time to create my first online course and membership website.

Having been one of Kajabi's first customers several years ago, I am extremely excited to bring you this interview with it's Co-Founder, Travis Rosser.   In this episode, you'll get to hear Travis' full entrepreneurial journey, my story of struggling to make other platforms work in the beginning and how Kajabi saved me, why Travis protects the company culture he's worked intentionally to create, and how Kajabi can help you stop being afraid of technology and start making money selling your knowledge.   To learn more about Kajabi, and to receive a free trial and 15% discount, visit the show notes.   If you would like to connect with me, and
