Have Baby, Will Travel

14. December 2011

Are you the seated passenger with your nose in “Spirit” magazine (or your fingers preoccupied with Angry Birds) trying to avert my gaze while I make my way down the aisle with my baby? Don’t worry–I don’t want to sit next to you either! This mommy is a seasoned traveler… (And so is [...]

I’m Baaack!

Holy moly, I can’t believe I have a four-month-old. (And I can’t believe she’s sleeping right now!) Needless to say, this has been one exciting summer. So exciting, that I haven’t even stopped to blog about it! It started off with a new baby, and it’s ending up with a new house! But more on that [...]

Are you like these cynical prospects I’ve been talking to lately? You’ve been burned in network marketing before… You have wasted money on leads that didn’t pan out… And you know FOR SURE that it takes money to make money. Oh, really? Well if that’s what you believe, thank you for enlightening me! I will [...]

After record ratings for NBC last night, I know I wasn’t the only one curious enough to check out “The Voice”. Did you watch the new vocal talent reality TV show, too? Or were you able to resist the mass marketing that hooked me like a little fish! In my defense, I watched partly because [...]

Is Your Business Missing This?

I can’t believe I forgot this! (I’m so embarrassed…) And I feel like I owe my team a huge apology! I’ve created such an awesome life out of practicing this one principle… and somewhere along the way I forgot to fully integrate it into my business. Major OOPS! Sometimes it takes a smack with a [...]

I Didn’t Ask You!

Nothing screams, “I want you to give me your unsolicited advice!” like my pregnant belly. I may as well be wearing a sign that says, “Tell me how I should birth/feed/raise my child… please!” Here are a bunch of comments I’ve heard from absolute strangers in the past few months: “You’re gonna breastfeed, aren’t you?” [...]

One Down, Three To Go

Holy moly, how did this happen? It’s almost APRIL?!? But I just took down my Christmas tree! (Didn’t you, too?) Well anyway… this end-of-month is much more significant than just any old “May 30th” or “August 31st”. And you’d be amiss if you didn’t take it seriously. So in case you’re in the dark, allow [...]

You’re Not Crazy… Enough!

Right after my sponsor signed me up in her downline, she promptly informed me of an event I needed to attend to learn how to grow my business. I live in California… And the event was in Nashville. I was in my early twenties, and traveling solo was not in the realm of my comprehension. [...]

Are You Working Your Business In 1945?

Entirely as a joke, my 92-year-old grandmother gave me “The Pocket Book of Baby and Child Care” for a good laugh as I prepare for the arrival of my first child this spring. The book is a wonderful guide for expectant mothers… assuming, of course, that you live in the 1940′s and wear aprons daily. [...]

Last month I met my absolute favorite author ever, the incredibly talented and sexy Mr. Timothy Ferriss. (Don’t worry, my equally sexy and hunky husband doesn’t read my blog!) After chatting for a few minutes I asked Tim for some business advice, and he gave me a homework assignment: to read “The Magic of Thinking [...]
