GUESS: 58% of humans do THIS first thing in the morning.
If you’re one of the 42-percent who probably use the bathroom first thing, good for you. Because the majority of the population is laying in bed, holding it, while they CHECK THEIR EMAIL. People want to see what they missed and email is a direct tie to whatever they’ve got going on in their world.
Email marketing is my favorite topic, and I want you to appreciate the possibilities your list holds. This isn’t a list-building lecture though… I’ll teach you how to write copy that will make your subscribers know, like and trust you.
By the end of it, you’ll learn my secret formulas to writing catchy subject lines and captivating copy your people will actually read.
Listen right now + tell me where you’re tuning in! (No judgments if you’re in the bathroom!)
Are you cut out for this? Could you truly be successful doing what you love?
I approach my business, and this podcast with an abundance mindset -- there’s enough to go around for me and for you. And there’s one thing I know for sure: It doesn’t matter if I give you every step laid out in an easy to follow roadmap… Because there are a few key factors that come from deep inside us, things you already possess as an individual that will determine if you’ll be successful.
Today I’m walking you through five things that will determine if you’ll be successful… The five intrinsic factors that will lead you to reaching that big God dream on your heart.
Use this episode as a gut check: Am I in this for real? We’re talking alllll about success today. All external factors aside, will you be successful?

She responded to my instagram story saying "seriously, I don't know how you do it all!"⠀
⠀
My response?⠀
⠀
I DON'T do it all!⠀
⠀
I do a lot, my plate is incredibly full, a lot of tiny humans need me on a daily basis and there is a never-ending to-do list of things that I hope to get done.⠀
⠀
But...a lot of those things don't get crossed off the list. ⠀
⠀
I've been "updating" the big kids' bedroom for going on 6 months (photos still half hung and random furniture is sitting in the corner.) ⠀
⠀
I've been meaning to invite a particular friend and her family over for apps & drinks for the past 6 months. ⠀
⠀
I just missed the return window for clothes I ordered online. ♀️⠀
⠀
I always have texts in my phone that I forget to respond to (sorry friends!) ⠀
⠀
And....I have help. ⠀
⠀
I have childcare when I work. I pay a housecleaner to do the deep cleaning. I order 99% of our groceries through @instacart. ⠀
⠀
❤️ This is the heart and vision behind The Balanced Life Podcast. ❤️⠀
⠀
We see other women online and it appears that they've got it all together. It appears that they do it all perfectly and we're left feeling like we don't measure up.⠀
⠀
The toll that this is taking on our emotional well being is significant. And so I want to talk about it and I'm inviting other women in on the conversation as well.⠀

When you are so wrapped up in WHY you started, who you are serving, and what magic you bring to the world, the distractions of perfect images in your feed no longer feel worth comparing to the work you’re doing on your own.
Don’t let this app bring you down that deep, dark hole of comparison. Build community, share your legacy, and scroll with the goal of celebrating what others are creating, not using it as a scorecard for your own success.
Tell me your WHY today. Comment below!
What IS imposter syndrome?
Imposter syndrome is feeling out of place in the scenes you’ve dreamed up for yourself. It’s reaching that big goal and looking around thinking: I don’t belong here, someone is going to call me out, I’m not supposed to be here.
Imposter syndrome plagues even the most accomplished, successful people because it has nothing to do with our qualifications or experience. Imposter syndrome attacks your confidence and changes your inner dialog, and it can impact your productivity, big time.
Imposter Syndrome is psychological, and I’m not a psychologist… However, I muscled through the feelings of “not good enough” and “who do I think I am?” so I want to share with you my own personal experiences, how I tackled my own imposter syndrome, and mix that with careful research from some trusted sources.
I want you to have the tools you need to push away that nagging self-doubt and do the big things you were born to do. At the very least, this will be a jumping off point for you to recognize your Imposter Syndrome and begin working through it to claim your title and place in the world with pride.

TO-DO LIST: Build an email list.
Okay, so Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither is an email list. But start now! If you’ve been waiting to create the systems you need to grow an email list, this is your cue to start.
I’ve got a TON of episodes of Goal Digger all about email lists (I’ll link ‘em in the stories for ya!) but I also teach on this subject if you’re feeling like it’s time to invest in a course and do a deep dive into the aspect of my business that serves my customers best AND moves the needle forward.
Are you ready to get that email list off the ground? Growanemaillist.com for the free training. I’ll save you a seat!
I WAS AFRAID TO HAVE A BABY.
I wasn’t a maternal woman, I loved work so much, I enjoyed every ounce of freedom, I wanted Drew to myself, I didn’t want to “ruin” my body and I required 10 hours of sleep a night... There were so many reasons why I worried about becoming a mom and yet this yearning came on, 5 years into marriage after we vowed we’d never have kids.
That was the start of a caption I shared just one month into motherhood. It’s how I felt before I knew how I would morph into a new version of myself, one I never imagined myself becoming.
Maybe it’s because we waited three long years or we prepared for the worst. I realized those fears were taking up space that could have been filled with dreams. Being a mom is the BEST thing I’ve ever done and it’s stretched me in new ways.
With this episode, I want to speak to the women who want to become a mom but feel fear. My fear ran deep, too. Today I’m sharing how motherhood has changed both me and my business, and what I’ve learned that told me I never had anything to be afraid of at all.

Running a business is a lot like being a circus juggling act.
No one told you that becoming a business owner actually meant tons of hours spent tethered to your computer becoming: a masterful blog writer, a customer service representative, an accountant, a branding genius, and a social media expert.
Let’s go back to that customer service bit... Because we all want happy clients, but we aren’t sure exactly how to get them every single time. Don’t worry, I’ve got you. This episode is your guide!
I am sharing my 5 secrets to getting happy clients in a service based business and how you can create a system to ensure client satisfaction. I want to help you avoid those sleepless nights thinking about your client base and the emails that make your stomach totally drop.
Some clients just aren’t the right fit — and that’s okay. But with these secrets I know you can make your dream customers feel worthy and valued, and LOVE working with you.
