Everybody experiences a loss of momentum at some point. In fact, if you’re human (and I’m assuming you are if you’re reading this), you’ve hit a wall once or twice in your life, yeah? Lots of things can contribute to that … burnout, loss...
You are a little more than halfway through the year. Doesn’t that just twist your brain into a pretzel! I recently carved out some time for business reflection to review how my year has gone so far. I looked at my progress on my financial goals, and what I’ve...
We all use intuition every day. It’s that silent internal nudge that happens when something feels right or wrong. I wonder how often entrepreneurs tap into this secret, but potent power – their business intuition. You know you’re using your business intuition when you...
Business financials can be a vulnerable thing to look at. Numbers don’t lie, right? I have a very creative business, and when I think about numbers, I can get overwhelmed super quickly. Math has just never been a strength of mine so bookkeeping, financials and...
Here at Momentum Coaching, I am always talking about creating Daily Momentum. And there’s a reason for it! Throughout my own journey, and the journey of those I’ve had the privilege of coaching, there is one common theme: Little actions lead to big...
I’ve never met anyone who enjoys poor customer service. Say you’re out to eat on a business lunch. You pick the best restaurant in town, known for its top-notch menu. The place is beautiful, the hostess is friendly, you get seated and served promptly. And...

Booking clients is a process that every entrepreneur and small business owner knows well. It is our lifeblood, the very thing that keeps our businesses not just sustained but growing. What happens, however, when the clients just don’t come? If you’re working overtime...
Time is a fickle friend. We wake up each day with a blank slate and all the time in the world, only to find our day disappear under a pile of busy work and minor tasks. We work so hard, but by the end of the week, we don’t really have anything to show for it. Sound...
That moment, when your toddler asks you to create a masterpiece for her. So you do. And before you can even finish it, she says, “ mama, I want to wash it away! I want to make it disappear!”
Can’t business just be like this sometimes, too?

There is a LOT of content out there. Most of it telling you what you’re doing wrong. Or what is wrong with you.
So pause and take a minute today to tap into what you’re doing RIGHT, please.
Because reading all of that can make you feel like crap pretty quickly. There are many days I turn social media off because it just doesn’t make me FEEL good to scroll and read. What about you?
