You’ve probably heard me talk about my beach house. It was a long-held dream, and manifesting it was a big deal for Mark and I. It’s a stunning house, but we’ve decided to sell it. I recently shared some photos and videos on social media and got lots of questions about “Why are you selling?” and “What’s next?”. So last week, I recorded a podcast episode to share more about why I’m selling, what was once my dream house, and the steps I’m taking to manifest the next one....

Getting ghosting sucks. Whether it’s the person you’ve been enjoying getting to know romantically, or a huge lead for your business, a sudden stop in communication is a punch in the gut. But to be honest, in your business people are going to ghost you. They will flake on you, change their mind, and sometimes be pretty rude about it. But you can’t take it personally! Today on the Chill and Prosper podcast, I cover how to get yourself into a mindset of abundance to close the deal (and the steps to...

People ask me all the time, “Denise, how long does it really take to make a million dollars?” For me, the magic number was five years. Five years from starting my business to pushing over the threshold of $1 million in annual revenue. But that’s not the whole story. Because truthfully, I was waiting in the wings for years before starting my business. Listening and learning – gathering all the information I needed to be successful. I didn’t wake up one day and think, “I’m going to make a million ...

Small words of wisdom for this week: Just because someone is succeeding in addition to you, doesn’t mean they are succeeding instead of you. There’s nothing new under the sun, right? It can be nerve wracking to put your ideas out there because what if it looks like you’re trying to copy someone else. Or even worse, what if someone ends up copying you and making even more money. How can we be original when the world around us is moving a mile a minute? Let me tell you a story … A few years back, ...

Let’s be real: the physical space around you can really impact your mindset. Clutter can clog you up. It impacts your ability to focus and nags at you when you have a million other things to do. Kind of like having 50 tabs open on your computer and you can’t figure out which one the music is coming from … It’s simply overwhelming. When you have a lot of stuff, it's really hard to appreciate what you actually have in your life. I’m a big fan of Marie Kondo’s KonMari Method. Marie’s instructions a...

Can you believe we’re already in the third week of the New Year? Have you flown into January and already have multiple new projects up and running? Or are you just getting round to opening your emails and working on your plan for the year? Either way is totally fine. The perfect time to plan out your year is whenever you actually do it! Mark and I like to start planning things out in December to give ourselves space for the year ahead, but if that’s not your vibe, don’t force it. You can make yo...

Welcome to another year of the Chill & Prosper podcast! We’re diving right into the big stuff: money worries. I’m ready to stop worrying about money! Let’s face it: there are so many things happening in the world right now that can make us feel unsure. The last couple of years especially have created a lot of money worries for a lot of people.

I don’t know about you, but January 2022 feels like another lifetime ago. I feel like I’m a completely different person from who I was at the start of the year.

You may have noticed a little video I shared on social media recently of me dressed as Marie Antoinette. It was part of a very luxe, beautiful photo shoot I did that brought up SO many layers of feelings for me. So much so that I knew I had to record a podcast episode about the experience and my reflections. This is a vulnerable share but such an interesting episode.

Here’s a little unsexy secret – I regularly hunt out money leaks in my business. I’ll sit down and look at where costs have crept up, and where money’s leaking out. It doesn’t take long and I really recommend it! If you're trying to manifest money and it's not coming in, it might be that you need to fix some leaks.

I’ve got something a little different for you today on the Chill and Prosper podcast. I have a very special guest on the show - someone I really admire and one of my mentors, Jeff Walker. We got together to do an episode about launching because so many people try and tell me that launching is DEAD, and I know that is simply not true. I’ve been able to help so many people and make a lot of money by using online launches to grow my business. So I’m bringing you this new interview with the guy who ...

A launch is an exciting and nerve-wracking time for any business. But holy moly - there are so many things to think about; creating the actual product in the first place, getting all the tech set up, and all the million and one things to tick off. It's an exhausting and exhilarating time. And guess what? I'm gonna give you even MORE things to think about.

I've got another new podcast episode today about the Money Archetypes and precisely how to design and grow your dream business using this powerful framework. When I started in business, I sought out mentors and did what they told me to do. For my very first foray into business, I bought a course and put my business together exactly how they told me. But as a Ruler, Romantic, Maverick, this didn't pan out for me, and I couldn't understand why – I'm a good student and wanted it to work. Now I know...

It's really tempting to blame external forces, when something goes wrong or you’re not experiencing the success you thought you would be. Oh, it’s the economy’s fault. Or it’s my clients. Or it’s mercury retrograde?! Often, it’s actually our own sabotaging behavior that’s derailing our business. But that can be hard to acknowledge (and to recognize). In today’s bonus podcast episode I’m looking at each of the 8 money personalities - the Sacred Money Archetypes® - and how your Archetype might be ...
