It’s been awhile. Honestly if it wasn’t for my team I wouldn’t even have the time, strength, and perseverance to post today. Having an autoimmune disease that can flare up any day and last for weeks or months on end is frightening for anyone but can truly scare the bajeebers out of you as an entrepreneur.

EGO VERSUS GUT... WHICH IS MAKING YOUR DECISIONS? I'm no philosopher. But I do believe there's a difference between making a decision from your gut versus making a decision based on your ego. 🤭😳 A gut decision will be a reflection of what your intuition is saying. An ego decision will be a reflection of your self-importance. Which has been making your decisions lately? 
BRAIN PICKING IS FOR ZOMBIES ONLY. 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 The term "Can I pick your brain?" just gives me the heebie-jeebies. I can only imagine my head cracked open (cartoon character style) and a zombie picking away at my frontal lobe. Too much? 👀 Well point is this: no, my brain may not be picked. I need it fully intact! BUT with that said, if you'd like to ask me a question or get a sense of what it's like to work with me, here's the best way to do so: DM Me, Engage with My stories, Watch my videos, Head to my website! 🤯 What do you think when people ask to pick your brain? Shout to my amazing team 💋 @janorblu 📸 @heyamandawagner 📍 @discochurch.home

Every new year I always pick a word. Instead of multiple goals and this idea of how “I was going to change”. Each year I pick a meaningful word/action that was going to point me in the direction my heart and mind believes I should be on. Last year for 2020 my word was IMPACTFUL. In 2020.... I helped 38 small business in various tasks mostly bringing in visibility, reviews, and sales.💰 Employed/found employment for 65 independent contractors (80% military spouses) 🙌🙌 Spoke on 4 stages /events and was invited to 6! Thanks Covid-19 Ran 3 in person workshops and gave back 💸💸💸 to the community and non profits Took on 3 Pro Bono clients through out the year ➡️Which brought in 30k investor/donor money for one ➡️Helped build a clothing company from scratch designs to products- pitching to investors ➡️Helped creat a 5K consistent income to another It was crazy year for sure outside of the business 😳 Diagnosed with an autoimmune disease 😳 My daughter had multiple hospitalizations 😳 Multiple surgeries for the family It was truly an impactful year. So for 2021 my word is observant. I hope 2021 brings me open eyes and opportunities to be more observant in my family, my business, my goals, my clients, and my students. I hope this leads to success, learning/growing opportunities, and areas where I can make a difference for others. 🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾 If you could choose a word for you for 2021!👩🏼💻 What would it be ?⤵️ 
When we get lost in the surface level reflection of success. What we see and what we share seems to stop at dollar signs $$$, ROI Numbers, & Testimonials What we seem to forget to share are the emotional breakthroughs, mindset shifts, inner transformations and failures that pushed us to our highest successful months. This year I had: My HIGHEST year in sales ever. I spent the most in expenses over the past 4 years put together. I hired 50 Independent Contractors (60% were military affiliated) I gave back to Nonprofits the most this year I offered 45 Scholarship opportunities I got over my fear of walking away from premium clients My money mindset hit rock bottom and it lead me to see the biases I had created I created partnerships with companies that are as devoted as I am to my audience What has your year in review look like? 👀👀👀👀

You weren’t rejected you were just redirected. ✅ Every No ✅ Every “Sorry you’re just to expensive” ✅ Every “Sorry I found someone else who could do it cheaper” ✅ Every “No not now” These sound like rejections, disappointments, and annoying phrases we find ourselves coming across every now and then. But I’m here to remind you it’s the universe redirecting you to something better. In the MIDDLE of COVID I remember spending two hours on the phone convincing a client that I was worth $$$ amount of money, that the 60 hours I would be spending on her business was worth less than the minimum wage I was running away from. To still hear “I’m sorry I could probably find it cheaper else where and get the same results” Say What! 🙄🤦♀️ After that I changed my pricing, I transitioned out all my clients that didn’t see the value in the hours I spending in their business and then... I started only accepting clients that would 🙌 Automatically see the worth 🙌 Shop around not by price but by RESULTS 🙌 Value the amount of time, expertise, and investment someone puts in to their business This lead to a $4,878 mid month sales for April 😱😱😱😱 legit my face exactly 😆 So don’t get frustrated. Don’t get irritated. Don’t give up! If you are ready to start hitting your own 5K months Comment below that you are ready! Tag me with questions Let me COACH YOU NOW 🙌🙌 even better it’s free 👀👀👀👀👀🤔🤔🤔🤔 So no excuses let’s go! ⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️ 
The feeling of drowning in bills and debt use to be my overwhelming reality. $1200 use to be a monthly paycheck. 😩 Not including the extra bills I had to pay to ALLOW me to work *Gas ($100) *Day care ($550) Now making $1200 in a day is a natural occurrence for me and without the extra deductions above. This is the reality of so many of us. Being stuck in the wheel of work-pay-work-pay. My client Ashley came to me at the same point, she was a mother of two, military spouse in the middle of Covid-19, trying to rebuild her career while juggling her already crazy lifestyle. She decided to become a Virtual Assistant to make more income and have a career she could take while they moved around without giving up time with her kids. Freedom to me when it came to my career wasn't just doing what I love and working with who I wanted. Freedom was the joy of getting paid while being home with my kids and not being afraid of my bank account when monthly bills rolled in. Celebrating getting out of debt without compromising giving up my "sick days" or working in overdrive for extra cash. If your career is making you live in fear then it's time to take make a change. And hey, that's what i'm here for ;) My goal is to help more military spouses become Virtual Assistants and build a career in remote work - because this right here, can give you freedom that a 9-5 cant. Are you ready to say goodbye to your 9-5? P.s Swipe to hear from Ashley herself 💕
