Systems, Processes, Apps, and Habits
If I'm not organized and have a plan, it's a free-for-all. At the end of the day, I can say I was busy but if I'm honest with myself, not very productive.
So...here's some of my go-to systems, processes, apps and habits for a life of more ease and purpose:

Networking Groups
Opportunities, opportunities, opportunities! Being mindful and intentional with which events to attend is key.
Currently, I can regularly be found at the following networking group events:
Professional Coaches Alliance - Accelerating professional thought influence through leadership and innovation.
Wine, Women & Wealth - It's a fun evening of wine tasting, candid money chat about empowering your choices and new connections! There are lot's of opportunities to make new friends and meet amazing women entrepreneurs.

Co-Working "Office"
I work from home. I have a business model that has some in-person time with clients along with many sessions on the phone. I'm productive working from my home office...most of the time. However, when I became a member of Hera Hub and started working in a spa-inspired female-focused co-working space, lots changed! To be in a space with other (mostly) female entrepreneurs is inspiring - being with other women doing the same thing that I am - working in their own business and being of service to others in a way that only they can!

Mindset Development and Growth
I read a lot. I don't like to get complacent with my thoughts and attitude. I'm always looking to nurture and expand my mind, what I think and how it impacts how I show up in the world.
White Hot Truth by Danielle LaPorte - Clarity for keeping it real on your spiritual path - from one seeker to another.

Essential Oils
I have a fetish with essential oils! I love learning about them, how they can be combined to support my expanding life and adventures! I love experimenting and supporting others with doTerra oils, supplements and other household products!

Spiritual Development and Growth
I believe in a higher power. It's that simple for me. For much of my life, I have either been an active member of a church, attended worship services, been in community with other like-minded people, read books or some combination.
There's A Spiritual Solution to Every Problem by Dr Wayne Dyer. Some of it is a great reminder and other parts are new ways for me to think about life, purpose, community, me and my role.

My Support Team
I don't keep it a secret that I have my own coach - or coachES depending ;) I believe everyone should have a coach; there are times that having an advisor, a cheerleader, a fresh set of eyes, someone who hears what you are saying (and what you aren't saying), and someone to hold you accountable can make all the difference in the world!
Dream Acceleration Coach: Tara Sage guided and supported me in awakening my intuitive side, coached me during my transition from my 23+ year corporate career into entrepreneurship as well as relocating across the country into empty-nest phase. Tara is creator and founder of Create Your Life! & Nomadic Leaders at TaraSageCoaching.com.
Business Coach: Barbara Maisonet has been on my team, helping me with specific projects and get my head clear for staying focused! Yup - even a planner like myself needs an outside objective loving kick in the pants! :)
