“I can walk.” It’s more than a mantra—it’s a mindset shift.

I used to sprint through life: meetings, family, side hustles, repeat.

Now? I walk. Literally and figuratively. Last week: 2.5 miles for a coffee meeting. Walk for 40 min. Converse for 80.

Because you don’t need to go fast to go far.

For the entrepreneur who wears a lot of hats, wants the biz to grow, and is need to hire, make sure you know your strengths (Assessment - Gallop StrengthsFinder) and book Now Go Put Your Strengths To Work. Make sure you don’t hire for something you love to do. #entrepreneuership #strengthsfinder
I realized yesterday while talking to small business owners about growth challenges they are experiencing, that I read a lot of books. I recommended several that were closely aligned with their challenges. #smallbusiness #businessbooks

Headed to an event where small businesses are looking for fractional employees to solve some of their current challenges. Excited to see how my experience can help them out. #smallbusiness #fractionalemployment

As I worked with my career coach, we talked about balancing daily goals with flow/fluid days. Each day I want to accomplish one thing for myself, one thing for my business Radio Chatter, and one thing to find a small business to acquire. I did all three today, my first day post W2. #ata #smallbiz

First day after leaving the W2 and I woke up early because my mind is already racing with things to do. But I have to remind myself: I have time. I have a plan.

Trust the plan.

So I scooped up the dog and we just laid on the couch for an hour while the family slept.

When you tell people your aspirations, it’s amazing what you learn about theirs. The connections and partnerships that can form around these previously unknown mutual interests are astounding. Share what you aspire to do, someone out there wants to help and be a part of it.

“Never sleep on the idea that visits you daily, that will be the one to change your life.” - I don’t know who actually said this but it resonates with me.

New platform for a new journey. Leaving the W2 corporate life in search for a small business to buy. Also building my own business while coaching and consulting. 2025 is the year. #smallbusiness #entrepreneurship
