Before we go any further...you need to know this 👀 Only keep reading if you're yearning for a career with more compassion + care ➡️ because you'll be helping people who are likely at their wit's end (so compassion = must-have)! 👉 Oh yeah...it pays well too (but only if you're a big-hearted person already) ⚠️ This isn't something you can fake... No hard feelings if that's not you (there are so many other ways to make money at home + online right here) Still with me? Cool. You might just love...

Does it look like I'm just writing about what grinds my confidence into dust? 😂 It's true...but also I hear this sentiment from LOTS of people! Side note - People with serious soft + hard skills say this to themselves (although it's usually about their highly-lucrative soft skills) You may think your hard skills (like web design, proofreading, bookkeeping, graphic design, copywriting, etc) are the big important skills. They are....but it's your soft (and usually invisible to you) skills that...

Ever wake up not in the mood...for whatever's on your to-do list today? I do...you probably do...and the truth is 👇 That person you desperately wish you could magically tranform into does too (yep...all of 'em) What do you normally do when you're just not feeling it? 😕 Try to force yourself?😕 Distract yourself with...anything?😕 Tell yourself how much you suck? I've tested all of these...thoroughly 😂 They don't help me get anything useful done. But...maybe you're different? I'd love to know!...

This week I've felt a little deflated (and doubting my abilities about projects I'm working on) It reminded me of a time when I desperately wanted to upgrade my life and business in every way... 💖 More money💖 Exciting projects💖 Fun-to-work-with clients + collaborators💖 And a work schedule with more free time And I really wasn't sure it was possible back then. 👉 If you're just starting out + looking for your next career or business adventure, you might feel even more uncertain about your...

I'm surprised by how many people have told me they're feeling unclear and confused lately... Some of them didn't look it at all either! Many of them are successful in their careers too So...if you're feeling "off" 👉 you're in good company at least! But it sucks... Especially if you're feeling a strong urge to change your career or your hours or how you work If you've got that "I should always be making progress" feeling frustrating you, I can relate (soooo much 😂) Sitting still isn't my...

The dream of working from home sounds perfect... 🥳 No commute🥳 Flexible work hours🥳 Yoga pants + jogging suits!😂 But are you really cut out for this? Most work-from-home careers also include: 👉 Lots of sitting in front of a computer (or standing with a sit-stand desk)👉 Mostly quiet work - writing, editing, designing, thinking, + admin tasks👉 Collaboration on Zoom (with clients or team members if you're doing contract work) If you like to stay active and using your hands to make or do things...

You probably hear a lot about finding your dream job... Let's talk about something even more nourishing than a "dream job" Your calling... A dream job looks + sounds exciting and fun (and usually pays well) You can see yourself doing it and enjoying the experience. But a calling is something deeper... And it doesn't always make logical sense why you feel a strong urge to follow it Let's take writing as an example Most pro writers feel called to do it (at least the ones that earn the big bucks...

Do you ever get a feeling like you're supposed to do something different with your life? Not a practical thing like "This job makes my personal schedule impossible" or "I don't have enough money to live a normal life." Just a "I'm here to do something else." I've definitely had this feeling...for a looooong time. 👉 And I pushed it aside most of the time because it seemed irrelevant and silly. I hope you'll pay more attention to it when it shows up inside you. Here's why 👇 It's guided me as...

Who cares what I think about anything... Seriously, the best place to get valid info is from someone just like you. It's why we love to interview people doing the things you keep waffling about (no shame in it...I've done it too) "Is this a good idea?" "It feels like a yes...but I dunno...""Maybe this other thing is more me.""What about...""What if....""I've already tried....""Am I the problem or...was the last thing I tried the wrong choice?" Say "Hi" to Debbie a brand-new real estate...
