Stop putting things off until tomorrow, because tomorrow never comes.

How many ideas are currently floating around in your head? Do you find yourself constantly pushing tasks back, promising yourself that you'll do them "tomorrow"? When I was in my teens I always said I would write a book one day. I started several notebooks to get going and then eventually just stopped.

Are you open to possibilities?

Have you ever paused to consider all of the things that are possible for you? As an artist when I first started selling my art back in 2005, I didn't know it would be possible for my work to be displayed in galleries and for sale in gift shops. A lot has happened in my personal since then, seeing my youngest through three liver transplants, graduating college with a master's degree, worked a regular job before going in on my coaching business, which also has pivoted a time or three.

For many years, I stayed away from places and events that required my art to be juried and evaluated.

The only places I felt comfortable were the farmer's market and the local county fair. I’ve realized that to truly grow as an artist and reach more people, I needed to step outside of my comfort zone. Getting my art into...

A Day in the Life

When I first started taking my business a little bit more seriously, I would devour self-help and business books, and one common theme I noticed was that people would get up before the crack of dawn. Now I naturally wake up every morning between 6 and 7 am and for a while I forced myself to get up at 4:30, you know for the success and all. But I soon realized that's not going to work for me. I returned to my regular schedule of waking between 6 and 7 am and going to bed between 8 and 9 pm. I...
