Do you ever sit down at the end of the week and think, woah! That was intense!
That's pretty much how I felt as I sat down to write my list last week.
On Monday, we moved into a new office space. It's close to the river, has HUGE windows, a lovely breakout area with fresh coffee...

At a recent networking event, I met a lady who told me about something called The Harmonic Egg. I love networking for this random yet meant-to-be type of connection; I meet someone I didn't expect to meet at almost every event I attend, and the results are wild!

Last week was my birthday, and it marked the beginning of my 44th trip around the sun. I drank cocktails and a lot of water (I've learned that hydration and balance are key for me to avoid feeling sluggish and hungover), I enjoyed a 360 immersive experience in the stunning...
Think about the last item you purchased. I bet the price wasn’t a factor until you determined it met your needs. This isn’t a coincidence; it’s science. Price is one of the final decision markers we evaluate when purchasing.
As a 17-year sales coach,...

I don't know about you, but this last week or two has been heccttiiccc. By the time last weekend came around, it was all I could do to get into clean pj's under my heated blanket (game changer), switch on a movie and take in a few hours in blissful comedies and more...

Many people think that being in control of your own time and working on creating a company that reflects your values must be so liberating, but running a small business is a challenge.
When starting a business, many people possess a level...

Last week, I was asked to give a talk to creative media students at a local college (which was all kinds of fabulous). While preparing a slide deck for the event, I reflected on my journey to becoming The Female CEO and what worked and didn't. I was surprised by some of the...

With so many varying pieces of advice coming at us daily (and each claiming to be the right way), it's hard not to feel completely confused on the road to success. Which path should we follow? Are we doing it right? Should we be showing up differently? Dancing?...

In my work 1:1 with start-up founders, I've found that specific topics come up repeatedly and often continue throughout the entrepreneurship journey. Same issue: different levels of responsibility and outcome; today's topic is one of those, and it's worth talking about...

I'm back into my dancing shoes over here at The Female CEO and literally bursting with ideas.
This tends to be a pattern for me. I go into introspection and hibernation over the holidays, and, in all honesty, I find it really difficult to get back into the swing of...

Open LinkedIn on any given day, and you'll see it is awash with heartfelt posts about #mentalhealth, mindfulness talks, and yoga in the boardroom – but amid a burnout epidemic, where should we as...

Just before Christmas, in an effort to take a well-earned break and enjoy the festivities, I went on a mini-break cruise to the Netherlands. Just a couple of days away, browsing markets and drinking hot mulled wine wrapped in 100000 layers of coats and scarves.

When people ask me if I have a vision for my business and life, my answer is very simple, and always the same…
YES!
This is because I understand the practical and magical impact of having a clear vision and how important it is to reinforce that vision...

So here we are.
We've turned the proverbial corner from 2023 into 2024, and all that lies ahead. Last year could be summed up for many (including me) as 'Nevertheless, we persisted'.
Even when it seemed impossible
Even when it felt like it would be easier just to go...

Ah, Christmas week... how are you feeling? It's OK, you can be honest. This time of year brings up all kinds of feelings and emotions; each is valid and has a place.
I still occasionally feel guilty if I'm not consistently jumping through tinsel-trimmed hoops at his...

Before you start picturing me as the proverbial Grinch, let me begin by saying I love this time of year; I mean really love it. I love it so much that I have, in the past, given myself full-on anxiety and stress hives, saying yes to everything and everyone. Yes, to...
