It truly takes another entrepreneur to understand an entrepreneur.

You can talk to your best friend, mom, significant other, truly whomever, until you are blue in the face and they will never quite "get it."

Be sure to find your village/tribe/support network. It's truly the best advice I can give an entrepreneur.

I once read an article in ‘Inc. Magazine‘ and found myself pretty ferociously furrowing my brow over the title: “How to Spy on Your Rivals.”

I am fully aware that this is a common practice and that this is not the first piece written on the subject.

However, I immediately thought, “what could you possibly gain from this that won’t actually and eventually start to bring you down?”

Will it give you insight to how your competitors are hooking new customers? Maybe.

Will it help you understand your competitors’ business model? Maybe.

Will you get new ideas from this? Maybe.

… BUT WHY RISK YOUR AUTHENTICITY??

In my opinion, spying on your competitors will make you stagnant.

Now you’ve gotten yourself into a predicament where you are running someone else’s business and ideas rather than your own. You’ve instantly negated the reason you started your business.

Don’t be another person/business doing the same thing in a *slightly* different way. Instead, look outward to your community:

What are your most asked questions when you get calls? Do that.

What are you getting calls about that you can’t help with and don’t have a referral for? Start that.

What are the services that your customers mention over and over? Perfect that.

Being in business is not about copying someone else’s vision, it is about perfecting yours.

When you do that, when you meet the needs and asks of your community, you have a real purpose, a real use in your community, a use that they will keep coming back for over and over, creating a demand for YOUR service/ business/ product.

So, for me… Should you spy on your rivals? Absolutely not… not at least until you are 100% ready to take it with a grain of salt and leave all the information where you found it and not get it entangled with your vision.

It may seem like it has its perks, and it is ever-so-tempting to do, but all you will accomplish is derailing your own authenticity and ideas and jade your own creative process.

As a business consultant and idea coach, I live, breathe and sleep small business.

Hot take: contracts aren’t boring, they’re freedom.

Water-tight contracts get the hard stuff out of the way, set clear expectations, and keep your business running smoothly.

No leaks. No guesswork. No “wait… what did we agree to?" or "Did we plan for THAT?" moments.

A good, watertight contract lets you sleep at night. And if you’re a business owner (and possibly a parent too?), you cannot mess around with sleep.

If your contracts aren’t protecting your peace, it’s time to fix that.

I'm a business consultant, not a lawyer. I can help identify the holes and the needs, and then let you and your attorney at it ... or I can lend you mine.

If you don't have an attorney relationship as a business owner- that's a whole other conversation we can have. 'Cuz those guys- those guys aren't the people you want to be looking for AFTER you need one.

Have alarms going off? Send me a message, let's get you taken care of and sleeping better at night! ✨

I wavered back and forth between 'peace' and 'less' as my word for 2026.

In this season of my life, I truly want more of what I do want, and less of what I don't want and I am finally 'there' to make that happen for myself. But peace is what I am truly after.

After years of starting and growing my own businesses (about 15 to be exact), I am more keen on starting them for others and guiding their decisions and path than I am about re-creating the wheel for myself. I remain passionate about small business, kids and family and education, but I am ready to find my 'peace' within it all.

That, coupled with 11 years of having small children, homeschooling and navigating COVID, health "stuff" and ... 'ya know, just life, I am embracing the calm.

I am saying yes to rest more than I ever had and protecting my energy at all costs.

I used to be terrible about protecting my boundaries; calling in payroll while at the zoo with my family, responding to emails with a 3 day old infant next to me, thinking I had to (and actually did) say 'yes' to every exciting opportunity that presented itself to me.

But, there comes a time where you have to say "I did enough" I paid off my mortgage, have funds growing in investments and ... it's time for a cruise control year.

2026, you are the year of peace.

Peace with my choices, peace with my kids and family, and choosing me whenever I can.

More quiet, slow mornings, longer coffee chats, 8 hours of sleep, feeling ok saying 'no'...

If you want to be here too, I am still keeping some time and energy open for new clients. I'll show you how to grow and/or how to get here too.

✨ It may look like just another matcha or just another day—but behind the scenes, it’s anything but mundane and ordinary.

My business coaching isn’t one-size-fits-all or part of a program. When we work together, we craft a strategy that reflects your values, your ideal schedule, your income goals, and your unique strengths and skills.

✨ Live your life as if your future self is watching... I mean, of course I am going to apply this to business, that's what I do with everything. But, truly, this can apply in so many areas of being a human.

What do you want your future self to say?

If that something is 'kudos to you for making the leap and jumping out on your own to open a business, start that idea, etc.," send me a DM and let's make your future self proud. ✨

✨ Humans were never supposed to be this connected. Hear me out.

✨ Humans are meant to be connected in a real way- with friends, families, neighbors... maybe your doctor or the owner of the corner store... and that's about it.

✨ We were never meant to be inside the homes and minds of thousands of people and know so much about so many other people... especially when it is just their highlight reels we are being exposed to.

✨ You aren’t behind.

✨ You aren't less than.

Let this be your gentle reminder to keep your circle tight with those that matter and light you up.

This is something I preach about in my business consulting- the art of "in person" is not dead, not even close. Shake a new hand today- a real one- not a virtual wave.

If you'd like to chat about what lights you up, I am all ears! ✨

✨ Three years ago, I sold my successful pediatric OT/ST clinic.

There were so many mixed emotions; sadness, excitement, relief, disbelief...

✨ I will always be a Speech-Language Pathologist by trade, but man does business consulting light me up.

It energizes me in new and expansive ways. ✨

✨ It takes my reach and desire to help others to another level.

✨ It is what I was meant to do.

Yes, I have a master's degree in a completely different profession (on top of some business school).

Yes, I gave every ounce of my being to getting that clinic up and running- and it quickly became one of the largest clinics in Central Ohio.

Yes, I do miss it some days.

✨ BUT I am proof that you can be many things, fulfill yourself and others in more ways than one, and follow your dreams no matter how windy that path becomes.

This is an old(ish) photo, taken within the months following the clinic sale. I was on a mission to savor more time with my darling boys, create a life I wanted of unusual asks, and open up my world to new things.

✨ I'm here to help you. Reach out and tell me how I can assist in your path.

🤔 Has your business consultant actually run their own business?
.. and I'm not just talking about their coaching business.

This may be one of the most important questions to ask a business consultant.

🌱 Want to grow a team? Ask if they have that experience.

🌱 Want a physical location? Ask if they have that experience.

🌱 Run a nonprofit? Ask if they have experience.

Lived experiences and lessons count for a lot.

Don't just settle for some reports, market analysis and ideas from someone that "went to school for this."

It just simply isn't the same as living the life of an entrepreneur; the 6 am texts, the calling in of payroll from the zoo with your kids, the run back to the office because a toilet overflowed, the wearing and juggling of 7,000 hats amidst all the other aspects of life.

It for sure takes an entrepreneur to understand another entrepreneur.

If you want to be happy and get value out of your consultant experience, ask the right questions and make sure they have the experience and relatability.

And hey, if I can help in anyway- reach out!

The art of giving yourself grace....

Today was our first day back to the homeschool routine for the new year. I imagine my son was feeling the way we all do coming off a break; reluctant, grumpy, negative.

Enter mom (me) and her philosophy on the art of giving yourself grace. When I have these days... and in 15 years of being an entrepreneur, there were plenty... I learned to give myself what I refer to as "grace."

That grace came in the form of a little softness purposefully and intentionally added to my day to make that day better, softer, more fluffy... My favorite sweater, a warm cup of my favorite tea, a break mid-afternoon for a walk or snuggle party with my kids.

This is his translation. I'd say he nailed it- and then some.

Give yourself some grace today and everyday that you don't wake up with boundless energy and verve for your business. You are going to have those days- don't let them stop you. 💖
