LOOKING FOR AN ACTION PLAN THAT WORKS?
As a passionately creative person, I LOVE digging ideas, strategies and action plans out of my clients. It's what lights me up and gets me out of bed every morning! I believe life doesn't have to be serious, boring or hard. What if you could CREATE joy, fun and ease into your life and business? It's in you somewhere. Let me help you find it.
BUSINESS COACHINGYou're feeling change on the horizon, but aren't sure what your next step is. Perhaps you want to start a business or grow your existing one. You have something of a vision but no workable ideas (yet)!
Your best ideas are in there somewhere. My passion is helping you discover how to bring them forward by following your BLISS and ultimately pursuing your highest purpose that cultivates JOY and FULFILMENT in the process. Some of the things I help my clients with include: - Hashing out new business ideas (creating your own Blue Ocean), - Naming products, services, packages, systems, businesses, etc, - Product and/or service pricing, - Business and event budgeting, - Branding development (see examples HERE), - One Sheets, - Websites, - Canva training and DIY design hacks, - Event/workshop/retreat planning, - Project management and Trello training, - How to build in strategic charitable giving into your frontend, - and MORE! Alright. You've got a solid action plan. But there's pieces you're still not confident with the HOW. You may be struggling with: - Unfamiliar softwares, processes or how to DIY, - Consistency, procrastination, or fear, - Writer's block, -Product/service development -Passive Income Generation - Sales, - Following up with prospective buyers, clients, joint-venture opportunities, sponsors, and MORE! |
BRAND ALIGNMENTEver gotten a referral for a product or service, googled the company and found a website from 1995 with a homemade logo?
Puts you off, right? You think (maybe unconsciously), "are they still in business?" or "they must not be doing very well." Like it or not, branding matters. But here's what doesn't work: picking a pretty colour palette from Pinterest, downloading a trendy font off Creative Market, and downloading all free stock images in an attempt at creating a "brand". It might look great! You may even get compliments! But eventually (usually much sooner than we expect), we find ourselves feeling like we need an update. WHY? Because as we grow and get more clear on who we are and what we do, you want your visual presence to reflect that. Which means you may be updating your colours and fonts every 8-12 months! I only know all of this because I did it myself! I've been through 3 "brands" before settling into a visual identity that FINALLY feels like ME. Your brand is not just a set of colours, a logo, fonts and pictures. Your brand is a visual representation of who you are at your CORE. You don't need a rebrand. You need a brand re-alignment. When you are finally in alignment with your visual identity, MAGIC happens. Let's co-create your aligned brand! |

MY STORY
Born and raised in Northern Alberta, I'm not unfamiliar with limiting money mindsets. I was taught "money doesn't grow on trees" and money is made through "hard work."
After I married my childhood sweetheart, we promptly started our family. I had BIG ambitions. Ambitions SO big that even my parents AND my husband wondered if I had a screw loose, haha!
I was going to be an entrepreneur and make lots of money so I could give lots of money away and start all these foundations and speak on big stages and CHANGE THE WORLD!
Sometimes I even questioned myself. "Am I crazy!?" I was pursuing my passion with reckless abandon. Nothing mattered more to me than to do what I love, regardless of the ridicule, judgements and negative feedback I got ALL the time.

Around the time I was pregnant with baby # 3, we hit a rough patch. I was put on bed rest and my business suffered.
All of a sudden, we found ourselves barely getting by, wondering where our next meal was coming from. I was diagnosed with prenatal depression; something I didn't even know existed.
Everything we had spent almost a decade working for came crumbling down. We had to downsize. Our utilities were cut off. My car was repossessed. I couldn't wrap my head around what had happened.
A short year later; completely off of anti-depressant medication, I was able to analyze it all. We had been paying ourselves first and had our family properly protected. I was ADAMANT that we live CASH ONLY. 40% of our earnings were going towards our future through various savings vehicles. I was always one to practice what I preach. Every strategy I taught my clients to get THEM ahead I also used. So WHAT HAPPENED?
On paper, we were doing everything right. But after weeks and weeks of journaling and breaking down and going over and over it, with the help of a mentor I came to understand the power of the MIND.

The entire time I was out, building my empire, hustling, sacrificing and PUSHING...I was doing it for all the wrong reasons. I was also afraid I wasn't worthy of the goals I wanted to achieve; that maybe that level of "success" wasn't meant for me. My business was SO MUCH about ME instead of who I was serving.
I realized that I was striving for a future ideal; always pushing and reaching for something just out of reach. I always wanted to DO more, BE more and EARN more. I let it cloud my better judgement, and I placed relationships on the back burner. To say I lost my way would be an understatement.
I was pushing for the wrong reasons. I lacked real purpose.
I lost friends, created distance between myself and family members, almost lost my marriage, and was too busy blaming everything else but ME.
When I came to realize this and connected back to my true purpose - the calling God placed on my life to serve, I was washed with a renewal and refreshing in my spirit and in my life. I felt for the first time that every experience and failure I experienced was for a reason; to equip others and cut a path in the corn fields of entrepreneurship.
I am so grateful that I learned this hard lesson.
