Rethinking Comparison and Competition

It’s true that other people’s success can sometimes bring out some not so positive feelings in us. I’ve certainly got stuck for far too long in anxiety and low self confidence after comparing myself to others. And even with the support of friends who remind us we shouldn’t compare ourselves to others, and that we are doing great, it can be hard to snap out of these feelings. BUT what if other people’s results didn’t impact how we feel about ourselves? And what if they actually helped us to ac...

It's Time To Quit Waiting For Permission

It’s time to quit waiting for permission. I know I’m guilty of looking around to check what others are doing before acting myself. Of holding back and waiting for others to go first to give me permission. Which can mean I sit on decisions spending so long trying to figure out what the right approach is based on others’ actions and opinions. And get stuck there swinging back and forth between options. But that’s not leadership. And not trusting myself. That’s not giving myself credit for m...

Navigating Covid-19 As Small Business Owners

I recently saw someone write in a Facebook Group, “no one is going to be buying right now so I'm going to stop everything”. What that signals to me is her own mindset and her own belief rather than necessarily the reality. The fact that she is just going to stop all of her marketing, stop selling and close down her business because she believes that no one is going to buy from her right now. It is actually up to your customers whether they buy from you right now or not. Don’t make that decisio...

How To Win With Instagram in 2020

There is a lot of confusion and mistruths about marketing out there! In fact, I was speaking at an event about Instagram just recently and one of the attendees put up her hand. She said that she feels overwhelmed by trying to keep on top of Instagram. So I asked her: “how often do you think you should be posting?" Her response? She said that just a few months ago at another Instagram training that was told she “must post on Instagram 3-5 times a DAY if she wants to succeed”. No wonder she was...
