How To Use Tapping To Stay In Control Of Your Thoughts And Emotions

In this episode, I’m going to bring tapping expert Alex Ortner to the show to talk about exactly how tapping can benefit us. The first time I heard about tapping, it was a little bit of a unique stretch for me.

Why You Can't Make Decisions

In this episode, I’m going to talk about why you can't make decisions related to your family or business even when it’s important that you do. When five o’clock in the evening hits, most mothers are super tired, and the age-old question from their kids about what’s for dinner makes them feel like they’ll cringe and you just want to make everything and everyone disappear.

Have you ever found yourself in a state wherein you are always chasing the latest, greatest tool, social media platform, product, etc?

More Than A Teacher's Annual Salary In A Day w/ Kati Oliver

I Hope No One Finds This Out - Yearly Review 2019

It’s that time of the year. As I ring out the old and ring in the new, a particular exercise I engage in leaves me more focused for the upcoming year. I usually put three things down on a piece of paper that I'm proud of doing and three things that I hope no one finds out. I then try and figure out the lessons that I was supposed to learn from them. This is so hard for me to do. It's easy to point out other people's mistakes, but pointing out your own and then telling the world... That is a hard...

Should You Lower Your Prices?

Should you drop the price of your product to match or even go lower than your competitors, or even go lower than or match Amazon prices so that you can sell more? That was one of the questions I got from my students. I think some of you are actually having the same question. Maybe you've looked at products that you want to sell and you're like “I'm not going to be able to make any money if I price match that. And so I just don't want to sell it because I'm not about to work for free,” and I'm wi...

Is Shipping Stopping You?

Way too many people think that running an e-commerce business or an online store or any type of online business that ships out a physical product is virtually impossible. Maybe that's you. You're thinking that starting an online business means you have to be right there, touching the product, packing and shipping it. Well, you actually don't have to ship them out yourself at all. I've been shipping products out for over nine years, and for pretty much all that time, I haven't personally packed o...

In this episode, I’ll be telling you about a gal I've been coaching for a while on how to grow her business, and she's done over six figures. The interesting thing is the way she's gotten there: by what the world would call "failing". In fact, she earned her first hundred thousand dollars by failing. Wouldn't you want to make six figures by failing? You can say "Heck yes" out loud if you want to, because who wouldn't want to earn triple a teacher's salary by failing?
