As we nudge closer to the end of the year as leaders our minds have already skipped to 2023 and all of the things we want to accomplish.

And I love this, I love planning, I love feeling ahead and I want to share with you today what I think is the best way to do it so that you actually follow through on the ideation AND you can get your team on board too

94% of entrepreneurs and 88% of job seekers say that a healthy culture at work is vital for success.

Ninety freakin four percent.

Not just nice to have
Not just helps get people in the door
Not just looks good

but VITAL

Vital for the success of your business.

When you are in the weeds of your business — you don’t really care what a person calls themselves — EA or VA — you are just eager for help.

Trust me, I’ve been there, and I’ve served countless Leaders who feel the same way.

But, there are some key differences between an Executive Assistant and a Virtual Assistant that you should be aware of before making an official hiring decision.

It’s hard to let go and delegate tasks, even if you know it’s the right thing to do for your business.

You’re probably feeling a lot of pressure to do everything yourself. You might be worried that delegation doesn’t feel natural and that you’re not good at it as a Leader.

Just because delegation doesn’t come naturally to you…does not mean you cannot be better.

Are you tired of putting out fires in your business, one after the other? Learn how to solve real issues forever.

A recent night out with my husband at a local Savannah restaurant, The Grey, blew my mind. Between the teamwork of the staff, the precision of the execution, and the unified vision of the chef — I was speechless.

As an entrepreneur, it can be tough to know how to lead a team effectively.

Leading a team is hard work. It’s full of challenges, bumps in the road, and moments where you feel like you’re not cut out for the job.

Despite the challenges, leadership is always worth it. When you work with people, you will be close to their strengths — and weaknesses — but there is light at the end of the tunnel.

If you’re feeling burnt out on leadership, or wondering if you have anything left to give, I have some encouraging words for you.

If you’ve read the news lately, you have likely heard about quiet quitting.

Unlike what the name suggests, quiet quitting isn’t about terminating your employment. It means to fly under the radar and do exactly what’s required of you as an employee — no more, no less.

In a word, it’s coasting.

This phenomenon is an organized response to burnout culture. It’s a way to “opt-out” of the hustling lifestyle.

As you can imagine…I have thoughts.

When you have a team… mistakes are a part of the game. No matter how catchy that sounds, or how easily I say that to you… it doesn’t change how mistakes make you feel. If you’re like me, you hate the CONSEQUENCES of mistakes. You know they will happen — because your team is human! But when you lose money, lose clients or lose trust…it’s hard to roll with the punches.

I think vulnerability brings people together in beautiful ways, but when you lead a team, it’s scary to show that side of yourself. You may wonder if your team will still respect your authority and see you as a confident, decisive person.

Are you tired of being in the weeds of your business? Do you spend all day separating the forest from the trees… when you want to be in the clouds casting vision?

Let’s stop with the bullshit cliches for a second, so I can ask you what you’re really wondering: “do I need to be the one doing this shit?”
