    #177 5 Things I Learned From a Room of Women Building Million-Dollar Businesses

    I'm sharing the 5 biggest lessons I took away from spending 3 days in a room full of women building million-dollar businesses, and why they matter for creating your Freedom Life abroad.  These aren't just business lessons; they're mindset shifts that can change the way you pursue any big goal.  I’m addressing:  How you can build a life (and business) that gives you more space, less stress, and still supports the life you want, and that's a bigger win than chasing revenue for the sake of it.How to stop overwhelming yourself with a million priorities and focus on the one goal that will move your life forward.Why it's time to stop apologizing for taking up space and going after what you want.How getting crystal clear about what you want (and telling people often) opens the door to opportunities, partnerships, and connections.The power of resilience, how it's built (not born), and why every challenge prepares you for your next level.A 3-step framework to break big goals, like moving abroad, into focused action steps you can actually follow through on.If you're ready to stop playing small and start building your Freedom Life with more intention, this episode is for you. Choose your one big goal for the next 6 months and start taking action. Subscribe and Review If you loved this episode, please take a moment to subscribe and leave a review on Apple Podcasts!

    #175 The Best Money I Ever Spent (And I Almost Said No)

    The best investment I ever made was the one I was most afraid to make. A few years ago, a $6,000 decision completely changed the trajectory of my business… And ultimately gave me the life of freedom I had been dreaming about. In this episode, I’m sharing: The story of how I went from making just $4,000 in a year to building a six-figure business.The mindset shift that helped me stop playing it safe (and start betting on myself).How one coaching investment became the catalyst for location freedom, financial security, and a business I love.Why staying stuck can be far more expensive than making a scary investment.Why investing in yourself often feels risky (but can be the fastest path to the life you want).How to evaluate whether an opportunity is truly an investment in your future, and not just another expense.If you've been waiting to feel "ready" before making your next big move, this is your reminder that courage often comes before confidence. Your freedom may be closer than you think, but it starts with betting on yourself. If this episode called you out... good. Now it's time to stop waiting for “someday” and start building “someday!” Join the waitlist for my next Escape Plan Bootcamp.
