Hey girl, welcome to the Purpose and Pixie Dust podcast. The podcast where we dive deep into our passions, our purpose and really unlock our potential with some pixie dust thrown in.

So many people come to me wanting balance.  Balance is such a hard concept to grasp and even harder to achieve--and I believe it depends on what your definition of balance is in order to help you achieve it.

Can I help you create a schedule, systems, and more flow in your business? Heck, yes!

Your drive to stay committed to this schedule, systems, and planning your day so it makes sense, though...that's up to you!

Here are my quick tips for helping you build your dream business in the time you have each week.

Know your business goals

When you know where you are going with your business, it's easier to decide what actually needs to get done and what is fluff (aka unnecessary to take up your precious time).

I start with my clients and we look at your big goal. What do you want to achieve ultimately in your dream scenario?  What do those goals then look like in the next ten years? Five years? Three years? By the end of this year?

Once you have your goal for this year, we can...

I listened to a podcast the other day and the host shared her top 10 list of investments for 2020 and I was super intrigued, and it got me thinking about my investments and how far I've come.  In no particular order, I wanted to share with you all my best investments of 2020, why I chose them, and how you could experience them, too (some of the links are affiliate links but I only share links for things I love, you know that!).

1. My Peloton.  Okay, I had seen ads about the Peloton, and honestly thought it was a just an over-priced spin bike. Enter Covid and I started seeing more friends buying them and raving about them.  I finally did a little research, bought a more comfy bike seat, and ordered my Peloton as a reward for killing it in my business in July.  I ride almost every day, and if I don't ride, I do the meditations or strength work outs.  The community is really supportive and the instructors are one-of-a-kind.  If you purchase a...

Alright, friend, it’s time to talk about why all those nagging tasks are not getting done. Maybe you have a passion problem (oh, another blog about that later!) or maybe you just have a scheduling problem. I want to give you some of my strategies for planning my life so I am most productive when I need to be, and also schedule in the breaks when I need to. Both are very important, especially if you’re trying to build a business!

Plan Backward

What I mean by this is, start planning your week/month/year by thinking about your goals. What do you want to achieve this year? This quarter? This month? Then work backward to break those goals into baby steps. So, say I would like to make $100,000.00 this year with my side businesses. If I break that down into quarters, it’s $25k a quarter I need to make, and if break it down by months, it’s about $8300 a month, and weeks that is about $2100. Perfect. With that I can write down my daily sales goals and then start...
