Have you ever felt like you're constantly busy but not actually moving forward in your business?

It was 2022, and I did something simple. I opened my wardrobe and started pulling things out. Old clothes I'd accumulated over years, pieces that no longer served me. I've never really thought too much about fashion, but I knew I needed a cleanse.

It takes a village to build a business - is it time to grow your village?

When I started Essential Shift, I didn't do it alone. And I never wanted to. From just about day one, someone offered to help, and I said yes. Not because I couldn't do it myself - I had the skills, the experience, the drive. But I knew something that many entrepreneurs forget when they step into business for themselves: it takes a village.

Have you ever wondered what happens when your business suddenly captures attention? How would you handle it? Good or bad? 

What if your next big business breakthrough isn’t just about your strategy but is hidden in your nervous system?

Have you ever felt that something was blocking your growth, despite having the perfect plan? Perhaps you've created an amazing strategy, mapped out all the steps, and yet something still feels off.

Let's talk about something that might feel a little uncomfortable - but is absolutely essential.

You've followed the launch blueprint. You've hired the branding expert. You've got beautiful photos, compelling copy, the funnel is up, and maybe even a few sales are coming in.

But something isn't clicking.

"I can't think in here."

Those words escaped my lips during my time with Techstars (a 13-week accelerator), as the overhead lighting in our open workspace triggered yet another headache, making it nearly impossible to focus on building Understanding Zoe - a platform designed to help neurodivergent children and their families.

Have you ever had a big dream - one that excites you but also terrifies you? Perhaps you envision leading a transformative retreat, launching a course that changes lives, or stepping onto a stage to share your message. You start imagining the impact, the success, the joy... and then reality kicks in.

Last week, I experienced something that would make most business owners panic: my Instagram and Facebook accounts vanished without warning. Years of content, connections, and community- gone in an instant.

Let's explore the five key trends shaping 2025, and how you can embrace them while staying true to your soul-aligned vision.

There is an 8 step process to set goals and intentions and I want to take you on this journey to help you create those aligned intentions.

We all started our dream with a purpose, with a mission. But somewhere along the way, maybe you lost sight of that? Now you might be on your computer for 12 hours a day wondering, why did I start a business? I am working more than ever before.

This year, 2024, has been a whirlwind of growth, challenges, and transformation. But one experience stands out above all others: my 13 weeks in the Techstars Accelerator with Understanding Zoe.
