What should business owners be doing going into this holiday break when it comes to accessing the right money? Right now is the best time to get clear on a plan. Get your plan in place for 2021. The biggest reason why businesses don’t get access to the right money at the right time and in the right way is because they’re not prepared. They’re just not prepared. They don’t think about the future. But the smart business owners –

The other night I was making dinner for my family (You may have actually seen the recipe I was making as I shared it on Facebook because it’s one of my faves – here it is if you want something delicious to make: Easy Vegan Italian Pasta Salad) – and it got me thinking about what recipe you need for success in business. As with any recipe, before you put your own spin on it – you want to master the

We were talking about what is needed to take your business to the next level. You can check out the full interview here (it’s about 15 minutes). But I thought I would summarize what Susan shared in nine highlights: Enjoy coffee or tea with friends and colleagues. Celebrate connections and relationships you have built by finding time to share experiences. Even though you can

Are you alone in your office? Good. Take a minute right now and VENT. No one will see you or hear you. Let it all out. What is NOT working in your business right now? Here are the things my clients share: You are stuck in the day to day of operations. COVID-19 hit hard and you are weary from the change, pivot, holding on that you have had to do over the last year. You have people who rely

Interview: Cat Stancik: It’s all about the room where it happens, right? Nettie Owens: Absolutely. And you just joined us in the room where it’s happening right now. What is the value of being in the room where it’s happening? You’ve had a lot of experiences being in the room. Tell me about just a few of them. Cat Stancik: I’ve been in some pretty secret rooms. I’ve been behind the scenes in a lot of different events. And I’ve been with

Can you believe we’re almost in to Q2 of 2021? It was just one year ago that we gathered for Momentum Live, speculating whether a quarantine would last for 8 weeks or 12 (ah, the good old days when we were so optimistic). A year later we are still optimistic. Why? Because we’ve lived through the most difficult time and we are still going strong. Give yourself a pat on the back. And then get ready to make 2021 the

This week has been all about leaders and leadership. We kicked the week off with Vanessa Judelman sharing “What Businesses Need to Know Right Now About Leadership.” Then you were introduced to Dana Moore of Inspired Lightwork. But today, I want to know what you think about leadership. More specifically – when you hear the words leader or leadership – what comes to mind? Do you think about big business and the corporate structure associated with it? Perhaps you think back to some “leaders” in your past who

Let me introduce you to Dana Moore. Dana is a Spiritual Leadership Development Coach, and she helps business owners lean into their full leadership potential – which, in turn, can bring you to that next level in business or your life that you’ve been striving for! And yes, there is plenty of room for the spiritual side of your life in your business. In fact, when you read interviews from some really powerful businesswomen (Oprah Winfrey and Arianna Huffington –

Why is it so difficult to transition into a leadership position? Let’s start with the age-old question: Are leaders born or made? Leaders are definitely made. Some people are born with a certain amount of charisma and know-how to lead, but most leaders are made. The problem is that in most organizations, people are promoted into leadership roles without education. And I always say, “Can you imagine if you had a teenager, and it was time for them to learn

Did you get a chance to watch Ryan Barrett’s interview on “What Businesses Need to Know Right Now” earlier this week? He really drove home the importance of protecting your company and your data from a cyberattack – because as he said, “It’s not about if you will get hacked; it’s when you will get hacked.” And you may be thinking, I’m not quite to the stage in my business where I need to worry about that…but you probably are. Because it’s never too
