It is your choice

Share This Post:

This past weekend was emotionally charged for a large portion of America and the world. There is no doubt that our nation is in a transition period and we have a choice in how we react.

This reminds me of the endless decisions that have to be made by a business owner on a regular basis. We can choose to approach with negativity or positivity. My goal this year is to look at all decisions as an opportunity for 834 and that how I react is up to me.

As we start out this new week, I think it is important to remember that when faced with opposition we have a choice and it starts with us and our actions. Choose empathy and respond with kindness. You will never make everyone happy, but you can always take pride in how you respond.

Deep thoughts on this Monday morning.

If we want to change things, it’s gonna require a different approach. Integrated + face-to-face + interactive + community + fun. Not doing anything is just not an option for business owners.

If you don’t know where you’re going, you’re never gonna get there. Your personal brand is how you get what you want.

It’s how you show up in the world, both online and offline. It’s the consistent thread that runs through everything you do.

For me, that means being unapologetically direct, embracing irreverent humor, and always prioritizing relationships (handwritten notes, giving versus expecting). It means rescuing dogs (okay, maybe hoarding them), advocating for my community, supporting women and never turning down a good happy hour.

What’s yours? How will you be remarkable? Your Big Deal Energy is waiting to be unleashed. It’s time to stop being invisible and start being unforgettable.

B*itch: badass, strong, stubborn, resilient, and fearless.

We get to decide what it means, so next time you use it to describe any woman; just know we take it as a compliment. You find us intimidating. Good.
