Today’s topic is about what you can do and what you can’t do. I like to think that I can do anything, however there are definitely things that will be out of my reach… I do think that if I really want to accomplish something and it’s in my strength zone I can do it.

Today we’re going to get real. Our topic this week is surround yourself with champions.

How many of you feel dragged down by someone in your immediate inner circle?

How many of you feel like you want to move forward, but no matter what you do it’s not enough for some of the people closest to you?

People.....it’s time to clean up your inner circle.

As a mom, wife, business builder, leader, speaker, author, sister, daughter, and friend….I wear a lot of different hats.

But, at the end of the day I know that I need to be there for my family, so how do I find the time to spend quality time with them?

Today I’m going to share with you some of the steps to think bigger from the book, How Successful People Think By John C. Maxwell.

When I was 25 years old I lead a team of people twice my age. If you've ever met me, you know that I was excited about this prospect. I was all, "This is going to be awesome. I get to lead people twice my age. Wooohoooo!" Then I started calling all of the people that I was supposed to call to invite them to our first real meeting.

Hello!

For approximately 12 years I have been on a quest to be the most passionate and enthusiastic person I know. 

This quest to become the most passionate and enthusiastic person started in a strange place…

Hello!

I've made it a habit in 2018 to study the Billionaire Mindset. It's fascinating to me to study what billionaire's think, read, and how they act. As with any type of person there are some billionaires that are making a positive impact in the world, and some that aren't. I spend my time only studying people that I'd like…

If you're a parent or have been around children for any amount of time you've probably been asked a question again, and again, and again. What typically happens? You say, "Stop asking me that question."

I recently had the honor of speaking at the UW-Madison Women & Leadership Symposium in Madison, WI. It was an amazing day filled with women in leadership roles who were influencing…

About one month ago I did something CRAZY! My husband and I decided to travel to Paris, France. We were a bit nervous, but mostly excited because we love adventures and visiting new cities. The first day we arrived we jumped off the plane…

Imagine having an entire day to reflect, reset, and refocus your life? After hosting the first Life Under Construction Live Event the participants surveyed 100% said they came away with more clarity on their life plans personally/professionally.

I’m blessed to have an amazing mentor in my life named Clif. Today as we were discussing mindset and success he shared with me this idea and I knew I needed to share it with you.

I’ve been fortunate to be mentored by some of the most accomplished leaders in the world. My first mentor was my 7th-grade track coach, Mr. Gerry. When I was in 7th grade and my track coach pulled me aside to tell me that I was a leader on the track team.

I can't tell you how many times in my life that I've said these two magical words to myself.

Whhhhhhhaaaaaaaaattttttttt?

Yep, we just won ‘Best In Show’ for our box fort booth at the largest Business Expo in Wisconsin!

I've been speaking with many different organizations. At some point during my training, I thank them for what they're doing. I'm always surprised that they seem shocked that I thanked them for what they do.

One year ago I set out on a mission to help one person.

Just one.

I know that doesn't seem like a very important mission.

For me, it was a game changer.

Have you heard of the 'Hot Air Balloon Effect?' I bet you haven't because I just came up with it. HA!

I live in a beautiful community in central Wisconsin. We have lakes, rivers, rolling hills, farmland, and a mountain. It's a magical place, but there is one other thing that makes it even more magical...Hot Air Balloons!
