#52 - How I Take Care of my Mental Health as a Busy Business Owner

Hi friends, I hope your 2023 is off to an amazing start! In today's episode I talk about how I take care of my mental health as a busy business owner and why I'm deciding to go back to my roots when it comes to my personal content creation and social media. I feel like the side of being a business owner people most often see from me is all the fun stuff. And don't get me wrong, it is SO freakin fun and I feel so blessed to be able to do what I do with the incredible team I have. However, there are a lot of aspects business owners don't talk about enough, so I wanted to share what I do to keep myself grounded. I hope you enjoy this episode and if you did, I'd love if you could share it on your Instagram stories and tag me, or share it with whoever you think needs to hear it!

#51 - Setting Intentions and Manifestations For the New Year, How I Reset Before 2023

Hi friends, HAPPY NEW YEAR! What a whirlwind of a year. 2022 felt so heavy for a lot of us for some reason, especially the holiday season. In today's episode I talk about setting intentions, manifestations, goals, and resolutions for the new year as well as how I was able to reset mentally, physically, and spiritually just before 2023. I hope this episode stands as a reminder for you that it's important to rest, it's okay to not feel happy 24/7, and that you can start brand new any day, any time.

#31 - Trusting Your Intuition, Spirituality in Business, Wishing on the Moon

Hi friends! Today's guest is Clairissa Cruz aka the owner of multi location, award-winning Bare Body Sugaring. She is a boss ass business woman, mom, and wife from Winnipeg, Manitoba. She has THE most beautiful family and she shares snippets of her daily life through stories on Instagram. She recently became a high level beauty business coach on top of everything she’s already doing. I think what drew me to her the most is the fact that she started her business in her basement, as a single mom, from scratch. Watching her journey has inspired and encouraged me because she’s someone who hasn’t come from a lot, like myself - but she’s built a huge empire. We talk about trusting your intuition, spirituality in business, wishing on the moon, and more!
