• The Five Best Books For Online Entrepreneurs To Read This Summer
    Jun 25 2024

    This is not your typical entrepreneur book recommendation list. You will not find these in the business section of your local bookstore. But they have profoundly and positively affected me as both a copywriter and a business owner. Because sometimes you need to see from a different perspective - one that is not typical business advice that you’ve heard a million times before at this point. You’ll be pleasantly surprised by this unusual book list for business owners to read.

    I’ve got a book for when you need to:

    • just sit down and write,
    • write but you don’t have time,
    • Be reminded of the Big Picture importance of copywriting from a neuropsychology perspective
    • Develop the most important copywriting skill in a fun and relaxed way

    I’ve thoughtfully curated the five best books for online entrepreneurs to read this summer. So add them to your GoodReads, request them from your local library, or treat yourself to time at your favorite bookstore to pick up these books.

    0:08:04 - Key lessons on the writing process.
    0:10:25 - Encouragement for mothers to prioritize creative work.
    0:11:23 - Advocating for intentional digital minimalism.
    0:12:24 - Countering busyness and the myth of not having enough time.
    0:13:43 - Benefits of reading fiction.

    • Big Think shares it in a way that is easier to digest. They said that “Modern research suggests that reading fiction helps you neurologically relate to other people’s experiences. It also correlates with improved social interactions and the ability to read the room.”

    • Research suggests that reading literary fiction improves one’s theory of mind and emotional intelligence.

  • Revenue Plateauing? Don’t Let Outdated Brand Messaging Hold You Back
    Jun 11 2024

    Don't let your success plateau because your messaging hasn't kept up. If you’re building toward your next big revenue goal, I know that one of the biggest fears is like taking your foot off of what is working to take the leap to the next thing.

    You know how to sell this offer, attract your ideal client, and how to speak to them where they think “oh, that’s me!” And this creates some predictability and safety and security. But deep down, you know that you’ve evolved, grown, changed. You’re being called higher. You’re meant for more…And yet, you've spent so much time and energy building a brand and credibility talking about this one thing, that it is now terrifying to shift. So how do you take the leap and get comfortable in the discomfort?

    You're seeing this revenue plateau or even a dip because you have evolved. Maybe your offer has evolved, your pricing has evolved, but you have not evolved your messaging or your ideal client to go with it.

    We're going to talk all about how to elevate your brand messaging in five simple and smart steps.


    [00:00:26] Challenges in Brand Messaging

    [00:03:09] Authentic brand voice and its impact on business

    [00:04:06] Signs that it’s time to elevate brand messaging

    [00:06:04] 5 Step Guide to Elevating Brand Messaging

    [00:12:04] Embrace an Embodied Decision (deep reflection Qs here!)
