The life of an entrepreneur is an expensive and magical and challenging one!

 

It’s one that I would not trade in for anything.

 

Being an entrepreneur also means you wear a lot of hats and if you’re anything like me sometimes what it is that you want to do and create in the world doesn’t fit neatly into a box.

 

My web design business has really taken off and I am now booking clients into May and June of this year. (So if you have been considering reaching out to work with me in any capacity; web design, branding, strategy or otherwise - now is the time if you want to get in before the summer!)

 

I have recently added another gig to my résumé and took a job as a freelance writer for a new local newspaper. My first article went live on their website this week and I’ve got about four stories in the works and a column of my own that is in the early stages as well.

 

I’m excited to be contributing to my community here in small town Ontario and I see this already  evolving into much more than I anticipated!

 

Another area of my business that I have putting a lot of attention towards is speaking! I have been speaking professionally for over a decade; hired for my first corporate wellness talk in 2013 by the Ontario Teachers Federation. Back then I was put up in a swanky hotel for a weekend where I taught an inspirational workshop on my life story, as well as Yoga and a culinary education workshop to over 100 teachers from the region.

 

Over the following decade I spoke on live national television countless times and lead live group workshops at the plant Medicine retreat center I worked at for groups of 40 to 85 people every week for four years. Right now I’m in talks to be a part of several speaking opportunities for 2026!

 

You can check out my speaker page here if you might be interested in having me come to your work space, event, or join you on your podcast! I’m currently offering talks on Breathwork as a business and leadership tool, Career Pivoting (I am the queen of the pivot!), and digital marketing for humans, PLUS I’m happy to also curate a talk specific to you and your needs!

 

This brings me now to the real point of this email this week… Because my bandwidth is being so stretched with all of this other going on in my life don’t be surprised if my newsletter doesn’t drop into your inbox every single Thursday. I might take some weeks off here and there, and my podcast will now publish on a biweekly schedule rather than weekly.

 

May the serve as a reminder that you are allowed to adjust your flow to match your bandwidth in business my friends! Consistency is key but that doesn’t have to always mean CONSTANT. 

 

Happy biz building! And take peep at the playlist I'm currently jamming to while I work below!
