Wow, this year is almost half-way over! How are you doing with your goals for this year? This month was crazy and chock full of changes for me. For one, I officially quit my full-time job and jumped straight into being my own boss. Next, I moved to Denver for the summer to help some family members going through some medical stuff. I also opened … [Read more...]
April has been a month of beginnings and endings for me, and May is gearing up to be the culmination of all the changes leading up to this point.

Simplify Your Goals To … [Read more...]
I hope your year started off with a bang! My first month of 2013 was both awesome and inspiring -- it was even more awesome because January is my birthday month! As I anticipated, 2013 looks like it's going to be a fantastic year. This month was...insightful to say the least. Full of big projects, big dreams and big growth. But with all growth … [Read more...]

I've grown a lot as a freelancer this year, and can't wait to see what we all learn over the next few months. I also had some fantastic opportunities … [Read more...]
Today's post has nothing to do with freelancing, business or anything finance related. Mostly because I've switched off working mode and am now in holiday mode - as I'm sure most of you are too! Of course, if you still want to read my most recent and popular posts, such as reducing your stress during the holidays or getting back into the groove … [Read more...]
It's officially the holiday season, and it's only a few more weeks till the end of the year! Normally, this time of year is when a lot of people are focusing on holiday parties, buying gifts, decorating the house, and taking time off. Which makes it the perfect time to ramp up your work and hit the ground running come New … [Read more...]
