Hey Reader,
First of all, I just want to apologize for sending you two of these newsletters last week. These are meant to be weekly newsletters and I never meant to send two, especially right in a row.
Anyway I don't know about you, but my family is getting in full Christmas planning mode. We are trying to get all the things done and do all the fun things.
One of our favorite Christmas traditions is making Christmas cookies on Christmas Eve as a family. This year we are going to make Grinchy Cookies. They're basically green sugar cookies with heart sprinkles and I'm so excited!

CHANGE YOUR MINDSET, CHANGE YOUR LIFE
I'm a former teacher. Since I started in 2015, growth mindset was a HUGE buzzword. And here is where it came from.
In case you haven't heard, growth mindset is the training of your brain to think of what is possible, what CAN happen as opposed to negative thoughts. It's re-training your brain to understand that, yes, I haven't made it to where I want to be, but I still can. It's understanding the power of the word "yet" and using it to drive your thinking to help you reach your fullest potential.
Yes, we are going to fail. But that doesn't hinder our progress or our path forward. If you need help with changing your mindset and how you think, this book is for you! Click the button below to get the book now.
DELEGATION INSPIRATION
FEEL LIKE A ROBOT?
Do you feel like a robot? Doing the same things over and over again in constant repetition. Does it drive you crazy? Same, friend, same.
Repetitive tasks make the perfect thing to delegate.
Why?
They're easy to learn and hard to make mistakes on.
Someone can easily come in and do these repetitive tasks for you. All you need is clear directions on how to do it and they can help you get those things done.
Some things you can delegate that are repetitive are data entry tasks, checking email, responding to inquiries, your onboarding process, posting to social media (not creating), and cold dm'ing.
Hit reply and let me know what you would delegate!
MAKING TIME FOR WHAT YOU LOVE
RECONNECT WITH YOUR WHY
This is so cliche, but it's also important.
Want to make more time for the things you love? Whether that's family, friends, or drinking hot cocoa, snuggled up on your couch with your dog, we all got into business to help us make money to have our dream life. So take some time today to reflect, what is your why? Doing so might just give you inspiration to make time for the balance that you need.
I wanted to share my why with you. What started as a dire need to get out of the classroom, turned into a passion for making people's businesses succeed. I love seeing my clients' growth and success both personal and professional. It makes the late nights and last minute project so worth it!
Talk Soon,
