Same rules from 2025 still apply in 2026: protect your attention, prioritize your moves, and ignore the noise. 💡

The only way to scale your business? Focus. 📈

Some of us don’t even know what focus is—and that’s why growth stays out of reach.

🚨 Weird Contract Wednesday 🚨

Dinosaurs aren’t just museum exhibits… they’re also a government contract responsibility. 🦖

The County is seeking proposals for a Dinosaur Ridge Preservation Plan to protect and manage one of the most important paleontological sites in Colorado.

This RFP focuses on evaluating fossil trackways, assessing risks, and creating long-term preservation strategies while coordinating with History Colorado and the State Historic Preservation Office.

Yes, even dinosaur footprints require formal procurement and compliance.

Here’s what the work includes:

🦴 Site visits to Dinosaur Ridge
📊 Reviewing scientific data and identifying gaps
⚠️ Risk assessments for geological and environmental threats
📜 Preservation and resource management recommendations
🏛️ Coordination with historical and cultural agencies

If you’re in environmental consulting, paleontology, historic preservation, or resource management, this is proof that government contracts can be truly prehistoric (in the coolest way).

🗓️ Proposal Due: February 12, 2026 at 4:00 PM
📍 Location: Colorado - Dinosaur Ridge
🦖 Scope: Preservation planning for paleontological resources
📄 Solicitation Type: Request for Proposal (RFP)

Yes, even dinosaurs need a preservation plan.

🗣️Vulnerable moment!
I felt like I was touching the ceiling!🤣

For those who don’t know,
-I’ve had back surgery (due to a car accident)
-Continuous epidural injections for many years
-Water on the knee with knee drainage (worst ish EVAAA)
-Hip problems to the point I had to crawl out of bed -Bone spurs, and significant damage to my C1-C7 vertebrae (neck muscles) due to my line of work in the computer field for 20 years.
-Surgery on my shoulder

I DID NOT Want to post this and definitely didn’t want to sound like a crybaby ☹️ but every day that I go to the gym, I’m in excruciating pain for days after.

It’s always a decision whether I have the strength to deal with the pain or not. Sometimes just a thought of the pain that I’m gonna face, Exhausts me to the point I talk myself out of it.

The moral of the story is, as I go and grow, some people will evaluate other people‘s videos, pictures without knowing the full gambit, and now nowadays, we are even reluctant to share to avoid that Scrutton being a micro influencer has shown me a lot of things that I can’t imagine going through if I was actually a large influencer…. you all are my diary today lol

this year has come in with a bang and I am focused on grace and peace all the way around 😌

if you share the same sentiment, I would love if you would drop a comment 🥰

So proud of this kid! The Navy’s newest Sailor! ⚓️💙

compared ⚓️ Navy BootCamp to football camp, because that’s just who he is. He shows up, locks in, and gets things done. Things come easy to him not by accident, but because of his discipline, focus, and mindset.

He continued the family tradition, his sister and I both went to basic training in the winter and his division became the first graduating class of 2026, which is a pretty cool feather in the hat.

In just two short months, I’ve watched him mature by years.

And just like that, I’m officially an empty nester. The kids father and I have done our job… at least for now. (Anyone with adult children knows exactly what I mean ☺️)

Thank you to my sister, , the auntie of the millennium, who is always there! 🥰

This question comes up all the time about programs for different races, genders, and backgrounds.

Let’s clear this up 👇🏽
Programs and certifications are not always the same.
They may be related—but they serve different purposes.

And another big misconception:
Federal contracting and SLED contracting are NOT the same.

~Different rules.
~Different agencies.
~Different opportunities.

The same goes for set-asides—they are not the same as certifications, especially at the federal level.

So when you’re looking at opportunities that claim to help you win government contracts, be specific:
🔑Are you researching a program?
🔑A certification?
🔑A federal opportunity or SLED (state, local, education) contracting?

Because mixing these up can cost you time, money, and missed opportunities.

In government contracting, clarity is leverage.

New year.🎯 Same woman. Clearer standards. Sharper focus. Softer heart.

I’m not rushing this season. I learned that confidence doesn’t argue And alignment feels a lot like peace with a little edge.

I’m Choosing what feels right And Allowing what’s meant for me.

I’m showing up well-rested, well-paid, 🤑and well-aware of who I am, each and every time.

This year isn’t about becoming someone new; It’s about letting go of what was never mine to carry.🔑
Still playful. Still ambitious. Still feminine. Still a boss

Here’s to a year that flows naturally and feels good while doing it. ✨🥂

Last to post from my class (as usual 😅), but still riding the high from Executive Education. (Sponsored by ) in my 🤓

Last week forced me to slow down, zoom out, and remind myself why I lead the way I do. Old friends, new friends, big clarity, even bigger vision.

Still doing what I do… just sharper now 🤓✨

This class was such a gift! Even though we forgot to take a picture of our 1st BACKYARD BID BOOTCAMP class that had over 50 participants, 🤦🏾‍♀️we had several returning students for our 2nd class that focused on proposal writing!

It was intense, and at times frustrating, but everyone left with a completed proposal or an exact metrics on how to get from beginning to end!

🔑THERE’S NO ONE ELSE DOING THAT!

You can dress TEACHING up with a yacht, trip to Miami and a beach vibe for IG...But what’s the point of all that if you’re not getting money?? SorryNotSorry

We had people DRIVE from Colorado & Washington DC & through this crazy Atlanta traffic in order to learn from the best to do it!

>That smile is after they said: 🤑

Again, I want to shout out our amazing videographer/photographer for capturing hours of footage!

And our incredible sponsors! To get sponsors your very first go around, lets you know people have bought into US, not just the dream! 😁

🚧 I almost burned myself out trying to be the entire business.

“Only I can do it right”… yeah, that lie almost took me out 😅🙄

Everything changed when I stopped doing everything and started building systems + a team that could actually carry the vision with me. That’s how 4SYT, Sheenapreneur, and GovConNOW started to scale for real.

My non-negotiables:
🔑 Hire slow, train fast
🔑 Document everything
🔑 Delegate outcomes, not tasks

What’s one thing you finally let go of that made your business grow?
