Episode 36: The 3 Reasons Why I Left Network Marketing To Pursue My Own Business
In this episode, I share the three biggest reasons I left my network marketing business to do my own thing.
I was in the network marketing space for 4.5 years and was a top performer, usually among the top 3 on our team every month, but I ended up burnt out and unhappy, because I was working hard for little income AND I was limited in the way I wanted to help people. Once I realized that, in order to do what I truly wanted, I had to go outside of that space, so I broke free and created exactly what I wanted.
I have no regrets, except wishing I'd cut the cord sooner! I learned a ton, gained confidence in the online format of business ownership, and got very clear on my deeper purpose - my why.
So if you are struggling in the network marketing space, putting in a ton of effort for little financial reward, and feeling limited in the way you truly want to help people, I want you to know there is a better way! If you take a step back and really look at the challenges you've faced with...

Episode 24: How My New Puppy Has Transformed My Midlife!
In this episode, I share the joy that adopting a new puppy has brought to my life, especially in light of being cooped up at home with this pandemic. He has brought love & laughter back into our home after our 15 1/2 year old Chihuahua passed away in January.
But this episode is more than just me talking because I've invited my dog trainer to join in the conversation! Yep!!! I've been getting a little help in my puppy parenting skills from The Dog Academy and its founder Sherry Nativo.
Sherry & I had fun discussing the joys and challenges that having a new puppy brings, as well as the misconceptions many dog owners have when it comes to their dog's behavior. I am so thankful to have had Sherry to help me navigate these early days with Moji, my 4 month old Pooton.
Make sure to stick around to the end when Sherry opens up about her own story of how she got into dog training 10 years ago after her mom suddenly passed away. It's a great story!!!

EP19: A Roller Derby Transformation That Brought Fitness, Friends, and New Perspectives with Barbara Dolan
Listen how Barbara "Queen B" Dolan earned her nickname as she shares her transformation from an inactive, unfit mom who was clueless when it came to skating to skating competitively for the Windy City Rollers, a roller derby league in Chicago.
After retiring from competitive skating, Barbara founded Derby Lite because she missed the friends, fun and exercise she’d found in her roller derby league.
Derby Lite brought together several adventurous friends, many of them working moms just like her, who loved the idea of roller derby but couldn’t make the time commitment or accept the risk of injury.
Derby Lite became the first-ever deliberately-safe and intentionally-fun roller skating workout based on the skills and drills of competitive women’s flat track roller derby.
