Recently, during a business coaching session I was telling my coach all the things I had on my agenda: recent projects, upcoming projects, networking events I was going to attend, exercising, reading, oh and in between all the day-to-day activities and chores I was going to find time to implement my new marketing strategy! After [...]
I was reading a “Little Pink Book” email the other day (sent by Pink Magazine) and the subject of the email was about the “best places for business lunches”. In a nutshell, the article talked about how picking the perfect spot for lunch can make or break business deals – what pressure! So, it got [...]
Hi Peeps! Last week I posted a blog sharing the first five things I learned in 2009. If you didn’t read the first post, please click here. This week, I want to share my last five reflections. Enjoy!
6) I CAN be organized! Earlier this year we held a biz-e-chicks meeting lead by organizing diva, Tina [...]
Hello 2010! A new year. A new decade. Where in the world did 2009 go?
I spent some time this weekend reflecting on last year. For me, 2009 was a year of ups and downs and in particular I can describe the last five months as challenging, emotional, frustrating, liberating, encouraging, interesting and educational. (You know [...]
Hey everyone! I’m making my biz-e-chicks blog debut with a little shameless self promotion. I am featured in November’s edition of Tampa Bay Skirt! – the 24-7 column. It was a fun survey to fill out and I appreciate fellow seasoned chick, Chris Kuhn, for asking me to participate. A link to the article is [...]

It’s 11 p.m. on a Monday and I’m still working … in my PJs … that I slept in last night. Welcome to the exciting life of an entrepreneur.
Back in 2006, I worked in my cushy government job in the public relations department for a county library system. I say “cushy,” because supposedly it was [...]
The other night I was throwing a little pity party for myself. Some friends who have “regular” jobs were all heading to Cork & Olive for the monthly Sip and Dip. It’s such an awesome event; you try wines, eat some food from a local restaurant and mingle with neighbors and friends – and I [...]

What motivates you?
This morning I ran like Forrest Gump. Not because I wanted to but because I had my running partner, and resident “bad dog” Marshall, with me. Every morning Marshall is up promptly at 7am sitting by my bed, looking at me and wagging his tail. Does he want to go out to the “little doggies [...]
