MOVING ON: HOW TO PINPOINT THE RIGHT TIME
Do you ever ask yourself when the right time to move on to the next thing is? If you’re anything like me then you're strategizing about this all the time when it comes to your career opportunities. This is something that is important to do regularly in the entrepreneurial world. But I also think it is necessary to be considering your growth opportunities even if you work in a career outside of entrepreneurship. You ensure success by staying ahead of the game.

BEING AUTHENTIC AS A WOMAN IN CHARGE
Something I struggle with as a woman in a position of leadership is dealing with things authentically when they go south. One of the main functions of running a business is problem solving. Things are always going wrong especially when a company is coming out of the start-up phase and into growth mode. In my business, this fact has one hundred percent rang true. It's interesting though, because I feel like addressing these issues works differently for a woman, than it does fo
HOW TO STOP WASTING TIME
The truth is, wasting time is fun. I mean, it must be right?... Since many of us do it much more than we should! So what do I mean by "wasting time"?

CHASING YOUR DREAMS IN JUST A FEW MINUTES EACH DAY
Take one step today, and another tomorrow. The step, in some way, must bring you closer to the goal at hand. A google search, a phone call. This is pretty standard stuff, I know. But it works!

WHY YOU SHOULD STOP SPENDING MONEY YOU DON'T HAVE
Social media will have us believe that those who we follow have the most perfect lives. I think one of the biggest problems our generation has is that we spend money we don't have in order to impress people that we don't like. For some reason we always feel like we need more things - a new car, pricey make-up, the latest fashion etc., to show off, and in some part, to make our lives appear as if it is more amazing than the next persons. The truth is, many people are really st


5 THINGS AN "HBIC" MUST BE
HBIC is an acronym which stands for: Head Boss In Charge The definition of an HBIC: She who takes ownership of and has her sh*t together. Somedays I fully embody her, and other days I fall short.
