Ready for Your Bravest Business Year Yet?

design a business that supports your best life.

Are you tired of playing too small as a business owner?

You know you need to make some pretty big changes and take some risks to have the business (and life) you want.

So what stops you? What gets in your way year after year?

Let me guess: You’re starting to think you’re not a big goals person.

Ambitious goals don’t really work out for you.

You try and try again but you can’t seem to reach the big goals you set.

Or, perhaps, you land them too quickly because they were too easy.

Actually, maybe it’s not YOU at all.

Maybe it’s your goals.

“Just right” goals will motivate you, elevate you and flow out of you AND grow your business.

That’s why I want to show you a new way to choose annual business goals with one thing in mind — YOUR FREEDOM and YOUR SUCCESS.

Introducing, the 2023 Design Your Bravest Year Yet Self-Coaching Workshop.

Let me show you how to set powerful game-changing intentions rooted in practical possibility & grounded courage — so you’ll want nothing but to take action toward your vision.

It’s time to channel your Inner Goldilocks & find your Brave YES Goals

Sometimes it can feel like we’re Goldilocks trying to find the right goals.

Too big.

Too small.

Sometimes we hear the “jump off the cliff and do the hard things” voice that tells you to set big, hairy, audacious goals and suffer through to make them happen.

These goals wear a passport tied around their neck and work 4 hours a week out of a rental in Bali. Just thinking about these goals induces panic and anxiety.

And, then there are the slow and boring “business as usual” goals.

These goals wear a suit and tie and mingle at Chamber events. These goals are like sitting on the couch in your sweatpants drinking tea. You know you should do more but … why bother?

During Your Bravest Business Year Yet Retreat, I will inspire you to choose clear, courageous objectives that creatively stretch you AND create momentum for you and your business in 2023.

What’s a Brave YES Goal?

A Brave YES goal lands “just right” … and hits you square in your Expansion Zone.

This kind of YES goal feels good in your body.

Every part of you says YES.

The Expansion Zone is where you walk to the edge of your comfort zone, slowly expanding your resilience and courage muscles.

Expansion Zone goals wear bright orange and funky glasses and hang out in a cafe enjoying fiery conversations. These goals get you up in the morning and energize you.

During this Design Your Bravest Business Year Yet Masterclass, I will guide you through a self-coaching, goal-setting process that isn’t about numbers and suffering through — but about heart and soul — and all of it will be 100 percent within your control to make happen.

Here’s what to expect from the

Design Your Bravest Year Yet Workshop

Goal Digging + Identification

In order to Brave Up, you need to know what areas of yourself or business needs to be upleveled.

You’ll do an in-depth inventory of your business needs — and personal dreams. You will form a powerful list of ideas and possibilities.

Unearthing Your Brave YES Expansion

You will take your list of ideas a step farther to find your single area to focus on and then you’ll work to narrow your focus to what I call your Expansion Goal.

This is the essence and will be the foundation of all your business actions all year long. Here we’ll find your Brave YES — that one thing that’s going to move the needle for your business.

Finding Flow: Alignment + Actualization

Finally, you’ll walk you through a powerful exercise to unearth the pathway to your goal.

This final exercise will unveil every action you need to take for completion. We’ll make it so doable you won’t have any choice but to make it happen easily and effortlessly.
