Don’t Start Q3 Without Doing This First

Take 10 Minutes to Celebrate the Progress You Might Be Missing Hey Reader, It’s the end of June. The end of Q2. And, yep — somehow the year is already halfway over. Whether the last few months were a blur or a bit of a slog, now is the perfect time to pause and take a breath. Because if you’re anything like most WFH entrepreneurs I know, you’re probably doing a lot more than you’re giving yourself credit for. And when you’re juggling it all — running the business, building the brand, doing the client work, and remembering to water your tomatoes — it’s easy to move from one task to the next without stopping to recognize how far you’ve come. So let’s change that today. Reflection isn’t just a feel-good activity. It’s a momentum-builder. It helps you reinforce what’s working, adjust what’s not, and make smarter decisions about what’s next. In this week’s blog, I walk you through a simple 5-step monthly review process that helps you reflect, reset, and move forward with clarity. (It’s what I’m doing this week, too — and it only takes about 10 minutes.) ➡️ Read the full article for all the details here: How to Review Your Milestones to Build More Momentum In it, I’ll show you how to:

But at its core, this holiday was created to honor the contributions and achievements of workers. And that means you, too. As a tenacious work-from-home entrepreneur, it’s easy to skip right past the holidays, to blur Monday into Friday, or to downplay the labor that...
Now's the Perfect Time for a WFH Systems Reset Hey Reader, Have you noticed how nature gives us built-in reset points? The first day of school. The first crisp morning of fall. The grape harvest that signals the start of crush season at a winery. These moments remind us that the season has shifted. Things need to change. Your work-from-home systems are no different. They, too, might need to change with the seasons and shouldn’t be “set it and forget it.” What worked last spring might feel...
