There is a crisis of confidence among female business owners. In this post, I break down what has led to this, how it affects our businesses, and how we can start to regain our trust in ourselves. I'll share my own experiences, the resources I've turned to for help & how to find your own.

Nicole Kalil wrote "Validation is For Parking" to bring balance to the fact that 92% of business books are written by men. Her message challenges the "confidence con"—the false and mixed messages women receive around how to look confident versus how to be confident, which can lead to self-loathing and perfectionism. A crucial insight from chapter 5: understanding what you're not meant for is just as important as knowing your passions and talents. Building confidence starts by taking action and challenging yourself to grow, but you need to look inside yourself—not to external validation or approval—to find lasting confidence. For women 50+, navigating ageism and sexism in the workplace becomes a form of self-empowerment. By understanding and addressing discrimination, you can take charge of your career path, assert your worth, and ensure your skills and experience are valued. Remember: saying yes to something means saying no to something else. Choose intentionally, embrace who you're not, and recognize that self awareness and confidence are an inside job.

If you're confused about the difference between a discovery call and a free consultation call, you're not alone. Discovery calls allow coaches to learn about potential clients' needs, but unfortunately, many coaches are trained to agitate pain points and present themselves as the obvious solution—which can feel manipulative and salesy. A free consultation call takes a broader look at your needs, and if the coach isn't the ideal fit, they can provide recommendations or referrals. This is how you demonstrate value even before working together. As a psychotherapist-turned-business strategist, I want to uncomplicate the process of choosing and hiring a coach. Because if you need shoes, you don't go barefoot when the first pair doesn't fit. It's worth taking the time to find your right-fit coach.

Are you a high achiever looking to transform your identity? Writing a book is a great way to do just that.  In this blog, I share the highlights from my conversation with Kim O'Hara who will discuss her experience of transitioning to book coaching and how writing a book can help you achieve greater visibility, credibility, and authority. She'll share her own personal journey of what it was like to write a book, especially the challenge of "letting go" of what she thought her book should be about.

If you happen to be female and in an industry that places a high value on youth, which means anything in the entertainment, beauty, and tech, to name a few, old is out and if you're a woman of a certain age, so are you. So much for 50 is the new 30.

Why are so many people so interested in the topic of shame? Maybe because it is one of the most toxic of all emotions, shutting down the hopes and dreams of countless people, causing such despair and hopelessness that some of them even end their lives because of it.

Not having a plan, a budget or anything more than a passing knowledge of personal finances, I have been truly lucky to get as far as I have in life. I am proud of my accomplishments and my drive, but in all honestly what I didn't know about money has hurt me, big time.

You start by deciding where you want to end up, whether that means married with kids, a successful entrepreneur, or the author of a best-selling book. Then you create a roadmap of actions, working backward from that goal or destination until you reach your current location.

I made up the expression, but the inertia part is actually a physics phenomenon you are probably aware of. I use this term, Entrepreneurial Inertia to explain two of the most common tendencies that entrepreneurs have that make us a mystery (or completely annoying) to others.

For every person who loves your shit, there will be at least one that hates it. Count on it. Accept it. Hell, embrace it if you can. The only opinions that matter are your customers, anyway. Ask them and only them. This isn't crowdsourcing, sweet cheeks, it's just business.
