Summer is here.
While that means longer days, more flexible schedules and weekend or month-long getaways, your business and goals can't afford to take the summer off.

In this solo episode, I share my top recommendations on how to enjoy the ease and flow of summer without losing momentum in your business. Summer is the ideal time to reflect on how the first half of the year has unfolded, and to set yourself up for a strong finish - all while soaking in the sun and making lifelong memories with those you love.

If you're looking for support and expert guidance in getting clarity on your personal brand strategy to achieve your 2025 goals, I have launched an exclusive summer coaching program to keep you on track.

Shine like the Summer Sun...Bright. Bold. Brilliant

Whether you are a business owner evaluating your influencer strategy, or you are considering becoming an influencer as a full-time profession or additional revenue stream, my conversation with Ann-Marie Muscarello will give you insights and perspectives into the world of an influencer.

In addition to being a brand ambassador for national brands such as Bombas and Figs, Ann-Marie is a Registered Nurse and NFL Cheerleader for the Denver Broncos.

• How to build a true relationship with the brands you want to represent and what brands need to know when considering working with an influencer
• Knowing and owning the value an influencer brings to a brand

I am thrilled kick off the third season of the Know, Show and Grow Your Worth podcast sharing my recent conversation with Nadia Murdock. A sought-after Movement and Mindset Coach and the founder of Nadia Murdock Fit, Nadia has dedicated her professional life to helping women in business regain their vitality so they can step into ultimate confidence.

We dive deep into so many topics - including how you can’t live in alignment with your values unless and until you know what your values are. We chat about the definition of TRUE self-care and the importance of prioritizing your own needs - as a way of redefining the traditional definition of success. I know you’re going to love this conversation and will walk away feeling empowered, inspired, and committed to putting yourself first - so you can show up for your life and others as your best self.

If you are in the NJ/NY area, Nadia will be speaking at the Let’s Talk Women’s Health and Wellness event on Saturday, March 29 in Newark from 9a-4p. Attendees will leave this event saying, “I matter; I’m worth it; and I feel more valued and confident than when I walked in this morning.”
