line in the sand
I hesitated sending this email. I had a different one cued up ready to send, but hit pause to ramble out something I’ve been feeling for a while but didn’t really know how to express (and I don’t really have a solution for 🫣).But first, can I just say… I’m having SO much fun right now on Instagram 🤣 I've posted more in the last week than I have in the last 6 months.As I’m typing this, I fully realize how I sound like one of those old people I used to mock in my twenties who said things like,...
surprised I did this (+ 5 harsh truths)
I posted on Instagram Stories for the first time in 2 months and realized… maybe it’s time I told you what happened.I hadn’t set out to do a social media detox… but I was becoming more aware of how much time I spent watching videos or scrolling in the in-between moments of my day.Or how I was scrolling AND watching netflix simultaneously at night (like when did it happen that we can’t just watch TV anymore? Just me? 🫣)Anyhoo, one afternoon I really needed to focus, so I deleted Insta, Threads...
It looked easy. It wasn’t.
Sunday I opened the fridge and made full eye contact with a jar of neglected goo. My sourdough starter.Which I now own, apparently. What started as a casual “sure, that sounds cozy” comment in a local free trade group turned into me panic-Googling things like “what is 1:2:2?” and “how do I know if my starter’s dead?” I thought sourdough was the pandemic hobby people did for fun.If Beverly from high school could figure it out, I mean– how hard could it be? That was before the ratios. The...
A Little Speaker Love 💘🎤
Hey Reader, Just popping into your inbox on this fine Valentine’s Day to say… I appreciate the heck out of you. Whether you’re already out there speaking or gearing up to make it a bigger part of your business, I love having you in my world.This morning, my family gave me the most precious gift—a mason jar filled with tiny strips of paper sharing their favorite memories with me. 🥹Before you think this is about to get too sappy, here’s one from my 10-year-old:"I love how good you are at Mario"...
more topics, more confusion
I taught my first live masterclass of the year earlier this week inside The Speaker Society. The focus? Helping business owners choose the right speaking topics—ones that align with their goals, light them up, and position them as the go-to expert in their industry. It’s a critical step because too many business owners fall into one of two traps: Thinking they need a long menu of “sexy” topics to attract opportunities. Feeling stuck because they haven’t claimed their thing. Here’s the truth:...
my husband’s response? mic drop.
I was at a work event at Top Golf in Phoenix a few years ago. We rented a space to eat, have a few drinks, and hit some balls. (Spoiler: I’m not a golfer. One time, I played in a charity golf tournament and got the highest score… turns out, that’s not a good thing. 😂) Back then, I brought my husband and nursing baby on work trips, so they came along that night (first kid privileges!)When it was my turn, I stepped up in my chunky wedge booties —because 2015—and took a swing. And I crushed...
Noodling on an idea about corporate speaking gigs
Hi!! I wanted to run an idea by you. I know it’s December 19th and the holiday traditions have probably already started, but you know how when you were a kid, you’d play slug bug and suddenly it felt like VW bugs were everywhere?That’s what’s been happening to me.Except instead of VW bugs, it’s a very specific thing people keep asking me about: PAID CORPORATE WORKSHOPS I keep hearing things like this:“I’ve booked a few and would love to make this a consistent source of revenue in 2025, but I...
Before you wrap up the year… let’s tackle this.
Hey Reader, It’s mid-December, and if you’re anything like me, you’ve got two things on your mind: Wrapping up all the projects whatever you can before the holidays, and Setting yourself up to hit the ground running in January. Somewhere in the back of your mind (maybe while you’re ticking off to-dos), you’ve probably thought: "All I want for Christmas is to speak on more stages." Whether it’s delivering workshops for companies, getting on stages at conferences, or landing bigger (and...
can I connect you?
Hey hey!It’s been a hot minute! How the heck are you? How’s your year been with speaking / visibility?Personally, I intended to do far more because it’s my #1 lead generator (chances are you heard about me through a pod interview or you’ve seen me speak!) But with Baby B at home now, I’d drastically cut down on my call hours. And while I’m loving this being a super slow year as I adjust to 3 kiddos and a new house.... I’m missing the rush of being “on stage”. but like, also not 😅 Anyhoo… I...
