Something that has recently been mind-blowing to me was that when I was recently asked about how business was going, I responded that I was content with where I was. I’m usually the person who wants more money, I need more other things, I want to do more and be more. I’m content about my accountability coaching, teaching people about essential oils, my planner and my other side projects. Contentment is hard for me. I’m a perfectionist and I expect a lot from myself. I feel like I should be further along, or be making more money. As entrepreneurs, I feel like we have to constantly be reaching for more and better. For me, that contentment comes down to a lot of money mindset work. How is that possible? Well, I’ve been working a lot on knowing the numbers in my business. By knowing how much money we have, how much money I’m bringing in and where the money is going. My husband has a full-time job outside the home and our money is our two incomes combined. I feel in some ways responsible because I’m the one who

I want to talk about preparing ourselves for the holidays, not our business necessarily, although business is important. In this instance, I want to talk about our hearts and in ourselves and what we're doing for our families as we prepare for the holidays if you've got a family or just friends in actuality.       It's a huge thing as we prepare to go into this season.

I think it's a really good to check out what it is that you have going on in your schedule and what is you want the season to look like.   It's important to remember the reason for the season which is Jesus right?

I thrive as a mom and CEO. This is not just a statement that I am making, I can look at my client testimonials and listen to my husband's testimony.

Over the last three and a half years, and another pregnancy and baby, I have kept my business running and thriving. Running a business is not for the faint of heart.

It was January. It was cold. I had a baby who was a few weeks old and I was taking a break in the shower, doing one of my favorite shower activities - praying. I found myself praying for my business, for my clients, and suddenly, God called me to quit my biggest client. I was a little shocked considering we used that money to buy food for the family. More importantly, I wasn't ready to quit working with my beloved client. The thing is, after that, I started to understand that God calls us out of something good so he can fulfill his mission. That mission is the next best thing he's called me to. And that's huge and special. I continued to pray and ask God for a timeframe and I finally got one. Again, I questioned God if this was right. I also went back and forth with him on the timing, thinking I knew better. Having a Christ-centered business means it's not always going to be convenient or expected, but it's almost always according to God's plan. With that being said, I told my husband we would be expecting a
