Do you have what it takes to be an entrepreneur?

Most of you have more than enough talent and resources to build your business, but what holds you up, is where and how to begin.

In this week's podcast episode, Shelley Levy takes the seat in our client spotlight. She is an artist who had an amazing journey painting her path to success.


As a dear friend and client, Shelley and I worked together to cast a wider and bigger vision. As someone who was teaching art, both privately and in groups, I showed her how she could scale that knowledge.

The truth, as a team of one, her earning capacity has a ceiling on it. But in our strategy sessions, I helped her reframe her mindset to see what is possible.

Because she was open and ready to grow, in a very short amount of time, together, we built a new framework for her website, outlined several digital courses that will be launched this year, crafted a new marketing strategy, and most importantly, elevated her confidence to...

Are you familiar with the beach ball of death, {{ first_name }}?

If you are a MAC user, then you might be all too familiar with the spinning beach ball that occasionally slows down your productivity.

I say "occasionally" with caution.

By the time people come to me for help with organizing their digital filing cabinet (a.k.a. their computer), the spinning beach ball of death is out of control.

And no...you don't need a new computer!!

You simply need to create some order out of the chaos of your computer.


In this week's podcast episode of Get Your Shit Together, you will learn my process for how I started tackling this beast of a project.

My hope for you is that you walk away with a little bit of inspiration to do the same. This step-by-step approach could be the difference between feeling as though you need to buy a new computer or saving the one you already have.

Here are a few key takeaways.

 Creating order out of chaos is liberating

Don't want to scare the crap out of you, but have you ever thought about how many computer files are buried on your computer's hard drive?

Most computers today have anywhere from 500GB to 1B of space. Does this mean you have so many files stored on your computer that you probably can't remember where they live?


I would bet you are one of the many that are shaking your head yes.


Life is busy. Or as I like to say "focused." The last thing on your big, fat to-do list is prioritizing and organizing your computer files. Out of sight, out of mind is what I always say and because you cannot physically see or tangibly touch those files, they are forgotten.

Until you want to create that birthday post for your kid and are searching for that one particular photo from kindergarten. An hour or two later, you are still diving deep down that rabbit hole.

What you intended to get done on that particular day is now pushed even further down your to-do list. Frustrated and...

Do you ever experience brain fog?

I was asking because just recently, I was reading an article that said that the average person is processing about 75 GB of information per day. 

That means that the amount of information, entering your space and your brain is equivalent to watching more than 32 hours of television. That's 32 hours in one day. How is that possible? We only have 24 hours in a day.

When you look at it that way, it's no wonder that so many of us are struggling. 

Just the other day I was working with one of my clients who is carving out a completely new path for herself. It's nothing even remotely similar to her previous career (of 20+ years, I might add). She is completely committed to this new lane, but the hoops she has to jump through in order to get this new machine running is a lot for a one-woman show to handle. 

I knew she was overwhelmed - because she told me. So, in trying to help her feel less overwhelmed I realized a few things.

Being...

Do you ever take things for granted?

I certainly do and was reminded of this the other day when a fabulous human in my group, Tech Talk, could not figure out how to share her “Zoom” screen.


Over the past 2 plus years, I bet you have used Zoom over a dozen times. And if you haven’t, I commend you.

When I got off that coaching call, I started thinking about all of those I have worked with over the years and how the majority of them are challenged when it comes to computer stuff.

I can confidently sit here and tell you that that is not me. And not because I am an above-average tech-savant but more so because I am wildly (to a fault) curious. Nothing lights my butt on fire more than figuring something out. Google is my friend and so are those “live chat” options that live in the bottom right corner of most digital platforms and apps.

But that is just me.

And the biggest challenge I see is that most of us can’t figure...
