✨ My budding entrepreneur + Dubsado App Update
|
Hi Reader I spend a lot of time at the library. At the beginning of every month I hand my kids the library events calendar. Each of them gets a different color to highlight all the events they are interested in attending. My 10 year old highlighted the Start Your Small Business Adventure hosted by the local SBA. She been working on making jewlery for the last several months and hopes to have a booth at the kids market later this fall. We went together last night and had a really good time. She asked some great questions and learned all about business plans, how to figure out your startup costs and operational expenses for cash flow needs, and a little about business financing. She got to meet a young boy who has a booth at the kids market this weekend. We also go to connect with a young woman who’s starting to teach Polynesian dance lessons. I’m hoping to set up a homeschool field trip with her sometime in the next few months. It’s definitely not a connection I could have predicted, but so happy it did and we took a moment to chat with her. You just never know who you're going to meet by putting yourself out there.

Hi Reader Setting up MemberVault finally made it to the top of my to do list. It’s been a long time coming… Like 2 years+. I bought the lifetime plan back then because it was my favorite platform to be a student in. But for a number of reasons including: Moving 4 times, Unexpected deadlines for other programs I was in, Migrating my email from Flodesk to Kit (because of the direct integration), Starting a website update and not feeling it about halfway through, Finally getting inspiration and...
Hi Reader, I've been head down working on this first speaking opportunity all last week. Thursday, I turned in my video. Friday I finished my new guide and started connecting it all with MemberVault. And got my test to work this morning! I’m so excited to tell you more about the event—I’ll be speaking at the upcoming BossMom Virtual Retreat, happening May 12–22, 2025. And I’d really love for you to be there with me. This retreat was built for moms like us—the ones building businesses during...
Hi Reader There comes a point with an upcoming move that my priorities start to shift. My energy goes from planning and preparing to very actively doing. This happened a few weeks ago and the reason I’ve been in your inbox a bit less. It means my energy is going toward sorting, packing, selling, and donating. It means that my house feels like a disaster as we thoughtfully purge. Every move has challenges, so far this one for me is making myself mentally and physically available to help all...
