The only thing that changes here in Park City is the date. The weather is wonderful every day and we are taking advantage of the outdoors in every way possible with bike riding, paddle boarding, swimming and hiking. One of the many benefits of being a woman entrepreneur today is the freedom & flexibility that it offers you. I invite you to take advantage of all the low-cost to no-cost technology available so that you can create a more profitable, freedom based business.
Speaking of freedom-based businesses, my team and I are working on some BIG Ideas over here to help you access more freedom in your business and your life because we know you started your business to make money and enjoy life! Stay tuned!
I have the good fortune to listen and learn from women all around the globe about their big ideas, dreams and goals and a common theme is women start businesses based on their values and a desire to make a difference in the world. The idea of giving back or helping others is exciting and it gets the creative juices flowing. However, the desire to serve can sometimes overshadow the one thing you must do in order to keep your business strong and healthy: cash flow.
Recently, I had the opportunity to spend the day strategizing with a group of smart women entrepreneurs from different parts of the world. It was an energizing day focused on topics such as effective marketing, clear messaging to attract your ideal client, time management and money.
My favorite quote by Einstein is “Vision without execution is merely hallucination.” The first time I read this I was surprised at the glaring truth to this simple statement. At the same time, I realized it’s sometimes easier said than done.
When you start a new business or take action on a big idea that you’ve had brewing for a while, it can be a very exciting time. You begin to get a taste of what entrepreneurship can feel like; you’re in control of your own schedule, maybe you worked for someone else and you’ve escaped the rigid 9-5 routine and you’ve become your own boss – life feels good.
to me that I was feeling exhausted—I mean really tired. As I made a mental scan of my day, I realized that I had been in a “reactive” mode most of the day rather than a “proactive” mode. We do need to react to situations that occur in our lives as best we can at that moment, however, Smart Women know that living a “proactive” life where you plan, prepare, and practice conscious living is clearly more rewarding.
forgotten just how beautiful and peaceful this cozy mountain is! It’s exactly where I need to be right now.
