12 Days of Business
As we reach the end of each year, I always like to share 12 pieces of business wisdom that I feel sum up the year overall. I enjoy writing this post every year, but I think is the best year yet!
If you feel inspired as you read, comment below, and share some of your own business wisdom. Who knows, maybe I will include it in the 2020 edition of this post…

Is it better to have an online coach or in person?
When my most recent credit card statement came, I realized it was the third month in a row I’d been paying for an online program and community that I STILL had not used. I was throwing my money after something I really wanted - growth and solutions - but I hadn’t mustered the self-discipline to actually engage and take action.
Have you ever signed up for an online course or community with the best intentions, only to realize months later that you have yet to even log in?
Or hired a one-on-one coa…

It Doesn't Hurt to Ask.
After careful strategizing and planning, my business partner (for Coaches HQ) and I ran into a brick wall. For six weeks we tossed around ideas, interviewed candidates, and tried to stay positive while we wracked our brains to find a way forward.
While we tried to work through the roadblock, I also happened to have a call with a connection of mine currently volunteering for Pawssible. During our conversation, I mentioned that one of our other volunteers, Sam, was donating his digital marketing s…

How Much Does a Business Coach Cost?
One of the most common questions that I get as a coach for A Better Place is, “How much is business coaching going to cost?” This a very logical and important question for anyone looking at investing in the advice and guidance of an expert, but it’s rarely answered directly. Because transparency is one of our core values here at ABP, we decided we wanted to answer it. Plus, you deserve to know. So without further ado, here are what we consider the most important cost and value considerations to …
Sleep Delayed by a Traffic Jam of Thoughts?
Recently, I was listening to a Headspace meditation, and the meditation referenced the “traffic jam” in our minds. As one who practices meditation regularly, I’ve heard this phrase used before to describe the mind’s unending flow of thoughts. But as I suddenly realized how frequently I’d heard the expression, my mind slowed, circled back, and focused in, ironically creating a little “traffic jam” in my mind.
Though you may not be into meditation yourself, if you’re an entrepreneur, it’s likely y…

Why I Love Coworking
I have three offices. Two of them are located inside coworking spaces. In order to share what I love about coworking, let’s take an imaginary journey through a typical day looks at one of my offices.
9:00 am (ish) I roll into the office around nine-ish. Or maybe a little after. Because most of my coworking co-workers own their own businesses like I do, arriving any earlier tends to warrant heckling. Same goes with staying past noon on a sunny Friday (or any sunny day, for that matter).
9:10 am I…

Business Lent
Did you grow up Catholic? In case you did not, allow me to give you a quick explanation of the Christian Lenten practice. (This is not the religious definition, so forgive me, Father Murphy.) Lent is a 40-day period that begins Ash Wednesday and ends on Easter. This year, it started on March 6th. Lent is intended as a time of reflection and preparation for Easter; however, it’s most well-known as a time where you give something up or make a sacrifice in your own life in some way. Whether you cho…
