So Instagram announced that they were taking away the likes...Now what? Well friends, for the most part, I could care less. Let's talk today about why Instagram is saying they are removing the likes and what I think the real reason is. As a mom, I am glad to remove that number as a way for my kids to find value and as a business owner, I have always known that number wasn't the most important metric all along. This is a great topic so let's dive in!

Some relationships you are in may be toxic, while others just may be coming to the end of their season. People are meant to be in your life for a season, a reason, or a lifetime.

I recently closed down one of the revenue streams in my business that was making six figures! You may be thinking I am crazy, but what I know to be true is that when God tells me to do something, I need to be obedient—no matter what. My Paint Finish of the Month membership group was a lucrative part of my business for almost 5 years. In this episode I want to share all about it and why we closed the doors. Have you ever had something you were holding on to but was just not who you were anymore? Let's talk about it.
I was just talking some ladies that I coach and I had 2 different conversations about hiring help. After doing some digging, we figured out their issues. What I have found is that most often our hangups about hiring have more to do with us than the person we may hire. There are several reasons people hesitate when it comes to getting some help—they are probably not what you think. Listen in as I tell you what I think about getting some help in your business!
The is one of those times when I am going to hug with my words and also kick you in the butt a little too. I have women tell me all the time that they just need someone to push them. You shouldn't need someone to push you, instead, you need to act out of obedience and conviction.

Listen in as I talk about other things you can do to have a courageous mindset when you are attempting big, hard, scary things!
I love the concept of leaving the ladder down—meaning leave a path for those behind you to follow in your success. As women, I think it is so important that we cheer each other on, help each other achieve big dreams, and teach each other what we have already learned. Not only should you be a mentor to others, but you should also seek out a mentor. It is a beautiful, biblical practice that includes mentorship, discipleship, and legacy-building!

What story do you have that plays in your head that may be totally wrong? Are you willing to challenge your thinking, try something new or different, and see if it results in a new mindset? For my entire life, I thought I was someone who couldn't wear heels. My mom didn't wear heels, I never tried them, I just thought they were not for me...until my Equipped conference last year. I was challenged to give them a try and now I LOVE heels! The heels represent something much bigger. Listen in as we dig deeper into false mindsets.
