For years on Thanksgiving, I had to sit across from my abuser.
Again.

And watch my entire family pretend it never happened.

The pattern was always the same:
The abuser hurt me. Everyone ignores it and says I'm the problem.
"You provoked them."
"You're seeking attention."
"Stop causing drama."

For years, I'd fold. Internalize the guilt. Stay silent through the holidays while suffering inside.

But that's long over now.

I don't stay silent anymore.
I don't accept it.
I don't give in.
And I made the tough decision not to spend Thanksgiving with my family because they refuse to acknowledge the abuse or support me.

And I'm sharing this on LinkedIn—yes, a professional platform and I'm breaking the tabu rule, but I'll do it despite the risk because this is also a human platform. ❤️

I'm in a better place today but I know some of you are dealing with this exact situation right now.
The family member who gets a pass for everything.
The relatives who enable them then gaslight you.
Holidays that feel like survival instead of celebration.

If that's you, I need you to hear this:

Your holidays should not be about suffering in silence.
You deserve to feel safe. Supported. Grounded. Happy even.
You deserve boundaries that protect your peace and people who have your back.

The uncomfortable truth?

Some families are better at protecting abusers than protecting victims.
Some people will always choose comfort over courage.
Some tables aren't worth sitting at.

And that's okay.
You're not obligated to light yourself on fire to keep dysfunctional people warm.
Have Thanksgiving somewhere else and don't feel one bit bad about it.

Your kids won't remember the family gatherings you forced yourself through.
They'll remember if you modeled self-respect.

Choose accordingly. 💎

Who else has found the courage to set boundaries, even when it opposes others' wishes, because you love yourself enough to say 'no more'?

Who else is redefining "family time" this holiday season?

I recently tested 47 AI marketing tools. 44 were expensive distractions.

Here are the only 3 that actually moved revenue:

After burning through $8,000+ in subscriptions and 200 hours of testing, I can tell you exactly which AI tools are worth it and which ones are just shiny objects.

The 44 failures all had the same problem:
They promised to "revolutionize" my workflow.
They required 17 integrations.
They needed a PhD to understand.
They generated garbage that sounded like robots wrote it.

Meanwhile, my revenue stayed flat.

The 3 winners? Dead simple:

1/ ChatGPT Plus ($20/month)
Not for writing posts. For research.
I feed it competitor websites, ask for gaps in their messaging, find angles they're missing.
Takes 10 minutes. Saves 10 hours of analysis.
ROI: Found 3 new service angles that landed $45K in contracts.

2/ Opus Clip ($19/month)
Turn one long video into 30 short clips.
No fancy editing. No complex settings.
Record once, post everywhere.
ROI: 5x increase in content reach, 3 new clients from repurposed content.

3/ Perplexity Pro ($20/month)
Real-time market research that actually cites sources.
Ask it what your ideal clients are struggling with right now.
Get actual data, not hallucinations.
ROI: Discovered a trending pain point, created an offer around it, $22K in first month.

Total monthly cost: $59
Total revenue impact: $67K+ in 60 days

The other 44 tools? They're still sending me emails about their "game-changing updates."

While everyone's chasing the latest AI trend, I'm using three basic tools that actually work.

Because the best AI strategy isn't about having all the tools.
It's about having the right ones.

And actually using them instead of watching tutorial videos for 6 hours.

Stop collecting tools.
Start collecting results.

That's the only metric that matters. 💎

What AI tool do you actually use every day? Not the one gathering dust in your subscriptions.

I fired a $5K/month client for asking me to work Thanksgiving.

They called it "just a quick strategy session."
Three hours. During a family trip to Paris.
"You can dial in from your phone!"

I said no.
They said I was being difficult.
I said goodbye.

Lost $60K in annual revenue in one email.

And I'd do it again tomorrow.

Because money that costs you your boundaries isn't profit—it's a loan against your sanity with 1000% interest.

I've been there before:

The 8-figure agency where I answered emails during my kid's birthday.
The "urgent" calls during family vacations.
The clients who thought paying well meant owning my soul.

Burned out so hard I shut the whole thing down.

Now I have rules:

• Minimize calls 
• No work on holidays (not even "quick questions")
• No clients who confuse availability with professionalism
• No amount of money is worth missing real life

That $5K client? They'll find another consultant.
Someone hungry enough to sacrifice their family dinner.
Someone who still thinks being always-on means being valuable.

But my kids won't get endless Thanksgivings or other holidays with me.
Does this make me less commited to work?
Heck no but also my best work doesn't come from a place of feeling pressured to be non-stop 'on call'.

The wildest part?

Within 30 days of firing them, I landed two new clients.
Both respected boundaries.
Both paid more.
Both understand that rested consultants deliver better results than burned-out ones.

Because clients who respect your time attract more clients who respect your time.
And clients who don't? They attract burnout.

We teach people how to treat us.
Every yes to a boundary violation is permission for the next one.
Every no is an investment in the business you actually want.

Money talks.
But boundaries scream. 💎

Ever fired a client for crossing a line? I'd love to hear about it.

P.S. Who loves Paris? Give me a ❤️

I had everything Silicon Valley promised would make me happy.

Elite job. Stock options. Fast-track career.
And I was watching my future disappear one meeting at a time.

No viral "I quit!" moment.
Just a quiet, decisive moment where everything pointed to one truth:

If I stayed where I was, I would never become the woman I wanted to be.

I grew up the classic overachiever. In 4th grade, tested "low gifted." School offered acceleration.

My parents said no.
"Let her stay where she is."

Twenty years later, I was still hearing the same message—from managers who couldn't understand why I'd want more.

Fast forward: I'd hustled my way into an elite Silicon Valley job. Project manager for one of the richest men in the world. Global launches. Insane hours. ADHD brain on fire.

I loved it.
Until I got married and started thinking long-term.

That's when I noticed:

In this massive tech company, I didn't see a single woman living a life I wanted.

The few at the top? Exhausted. Single. Freezing eggs. In therapy.
The ones who left for families? Disappeared. No support. No path back.

HR didn't even have a maternity leave policy.
Thousands of employees. Zero policy.

The breaking point came in a meeting with my two managers.

My boss: A woman in her 40s who sacrificed everything to "make it in a man's world."
Her boss: Father figure with 4 kids he never saw.

Neither life looked remotely appealing.

Back then—pre-social media—I had no examples of women building their own path.

Just my intuition.
And one book: The 4-Hour Workweek.

Tim Ferriss showed me success didn't mean sacrifice. You could design your own rules. Build wealth without building a prison.

So I resigned.

Walked away from stock options. Fast-track career. "So much potential."

Both managers lectured me:
"You're making a mistake."
"You could have been someone here."

But I understood perfectly.

I wasn't giving anything up.
I was choosing myself.

The moment I handed in that letter, I felt something I hadn't felt in years:

Certainty.
A deep knowing that this was my path.

That's when I became an entrepreneur—not when I filed my LLC or got my first client.

It happened the moment I stopped looking for role models and became my own. 💎

What was the exact moment you knew you couldn't stay?

Not the day you quit—the moment the switch flipped.

Mine was in that conference room, staring at two lives I didn't want.

Where was yours?

That $5K/month client I wrote about recently who I fired on Thanksgiving wasn't worth $60K/year.

Here's what they really cost me:

• 1 panic attacks during my daughter's school recital
• 47 weekend texts that "couldn't wait"
• My son asking why I'm always on my phone
• Two vacations ruined by "emergencies"
• 10 lbs of stress weight that I put on by mindless eating and skipping the gym.

The math was simple: $60K in, sanity out.

But I kept justifying it.
"It's starter money."
"They need me."
"Just one more quarter."

Until my then 5-year-old said: "Mom, are you ever not working?"

That hit harder than losing the revenue ever could.

See, toxic clients don't just steal your time.
They steal your presence.
Your peace.
Your ability to show up for the people who actually matter.

I'd answer their calls during dinner.
Check their Slack during bedtime stories.
Apologize to my family while prioritizing their "urgencies."

The breaking point?

They scheduled a "critical" meeting during my Thanksgiving vacation in Paris.
Said it couldn't be rescheduled.
Said my commitment was questionable.

I fired them the next morning.

And you know what happened?

Within 6 weeks, I replaced them with new clients who paid more, ranging from $7k to $20K/month.
Combined drama: Zero.

The clients I keep today respect my boundaries.
They value my expertise, not my availability.
They understand that burnt-out consultants create burnt-out strategies.

That toxic $5K client taught me the most expensive lesson of my solo career:

Bad money costs more than no money.

Because while you're tolerating their chaos, you're missing the clients who would respect your genius without demanding your soul.

Your kids won't remember the revenue.
But they'll remember if you were present.

Choose accordingly. 💎

What's the real cost of that difficult client you're tolerating right now?

Are you brave enough to say 'no' and opt not to take that toxic energy into 2026?

What kind of client or job do you want to attract? Let me know in the comments! ❤️

The biggest flex used to be how busy you were.

Remember 2010 LinkedIn?
• Airport selfies every week
• "Just landed in NYC/Dubai/London" 
• Humble-bragging about 80-hour weeks
• Posting at 2am to prove you never sleep

That was success.
Being too busy to breathe meant you'd "made it."

Now look at my feed:

"Took my kid to the beach on a Tuesday."
"Closed my laptop at 3pm."
"Haven't checked email in 4 days."
"Gym at 10am because I set my own schedule."

The flex completely flipped.

We went from competing on who's most exhausted to who's most free.

Old success:
❌ Corner office
❌ Executive platinum status
❌ Knowing every airport lounge
❌ Missing your kid's recital for a client dinner

New success:
✅ Work from anywhere
✅ Revenue without meetings
✅ Actually using your vacation days
✅ Being present for the moments that matter

I used to chase the old version.
8-figure agency. Constant travel. Important meetings.
Burned out so hard I shut it all down.

Now? I ski on Tuesdays.
Take real vacations.
Say no to calls that don't excite me.
Make less money but actually enjoy spending it.

And I'm not alone.

Half my network quietly shifted from "how much can I earn?" to "how little can I work while still living well?"

The hustle porn era is dying.
Freedom is the new status symbol.

But here's my question:

Are we actually happier? Or just performing a different version of success for the internet? 💎

What's your real flex these days—money or time?

I turn invisible service businesses into unignorable brands that attract premium clients consistently 💎 Fractional CMO | Smart AI marketing systems that sell 24/7 I Grab your free AI scorecard

I torched a profitable course business that everyone thought was "the dream."

300+ videos. Six programs. Monthly community. Six-figure mastermind.
Growing. Profitable. Zero debt.

And I shut it all down.

Here's the uncomfortable truth about why:

I built a prison and called it passive income.

Every morning I'd wake up to:
• Community questions that needed answers
• Algorithm changes requiring video updates  
• Launch deadlines breathing down my neck
• Kajabi breaking something new
• Students expecting 24/7 availability

The more successful it got, the less freedom I had.

Think about it:
To keep a course business profitable, you need constant sales.
Which means endless launches, ads, funnels, content.
Which means bigger teams, more overhead, more complexity.

It's a hamster wheel disguised as entrepreneurship.

I watched other course creators "living the dream" while privately messaging me about burnout, anxiety, and wanting to quit.

Most of them either:
→ Had no kids
→ Had a spouse handling everything at home
→ Built massive teams to run the machine
→Were constantly tied to keeping students happy by daily community engagement 7 days per week and even on holidays

Nothing wrong with that.
But I'm a mom with ADHD trying to build a life, not an empire.

So two years ago, I made the shift:
Fewer clients. Deeper work. Actual freedom.

Now I cap my working ongoing with 5 businesses max per year and a handful of shorter commitments. 
No community management. No weekly livestreams. No launch anxiety. No need for a constant stream of leads.

Just one clear strategy, focus on high-quality services, clear results, and my business boundaries.

The course gurus will tell you I'm crazy.
That I "left money on the table."
That I should've just "hired it out."

But here's what they won't tell you:

Your business model should fit YOUR life.
Not the other way around.

Before you chase someone else's version of success, ask yourself:
• Do I want to manage a team?
• Do I want to be "on" constantly?
• Do I want to trade one boss for 1,000?
• Is this actually the freedom I'm after?

I kept all the curriculum.
I can repurpose it whenever I want.
But I'm no longer its prisoner.

Best decision I ever made. 💎

Anyone else shut down something "successful" because it was slowly killing you? I'd love to hear your story.

Most founders don’t have a marketing problem.
They have a visibility problem.
And as we enter 2026, that gap is becoming brutal.
AI made content cheaper.
Competition got louder.
Buyers trust fewer brands than ever.
The founders who win this year won’t be the loudest…
They’ll be the ones with the strongest narrative + smartest distribution.
Today, I released what might be the most important thing I’ve written all year:

• the 3 new visibility loops founders must master
• the formula I use with clients to make their brand unignorable

The 2026 Visibility Playbook: How Founders Win in the AI Era

Feeling invisible online?

It’s not your offer.

It’s not the algorithm.

It’s not that “everyone else is ahead of you.”

It’s simply this:

You’re competing in a market that’s already overcrowded.

Most founders spend years fighting in “red oceans” — saturated spaces where everyone sounds the same, looks the same, and sells the same thing.

But the founders who stand out?
The ones who grow fast?
The ones who become unignorable?

They don’t compete.
They create their own category.

My ADHD brain closed a $200K deal in 12 minutes.

While neurotypical consultants were building 40-slide decks, here's what I did instead:

Walked into the meeting with nothing but my phone and a napkin.

The CMO looked confused. "Where's your presentation?"

I said: "In my head. Want to see how it actually works?"

Then I rapid-fired through their three biggest problems:

• Bleeding $50K monthly on ads that don't convert
• Sales team closing 8% when industry average is 22%
• Customer churn at 40% because onboarding is broken

"You've got 47 touchpoints before someone buys. Your competitors have 12."

His jaw dropped. "How did you—"

"ADHD brain. I see patterns you miss while you're formatting slides."

Instead of walking through theoretical frameworks, I pulled up their competitor's site on my phone.

"Watch this." Bought their product in 3 clicks.
"Now watch yours." 11 clicks, 2 forms, 1 phone call required.

"That's $2M in lost revenue right there."

The napkin? Drew their entire customer journey in 30 seconds.
Not pretty. But accurate.

Showed them exactly where people bail and why.

Normal consultants would've taken 6 weeks and 200 slides to say what I said in 12 minutes.

Because while they're perfecting fonts, my brain is connecting dots at light speed.

The hyperfocus that makes me forget to eat? 
Makes me see through business problems like glass.

The inability to sit still?
Forces me to cut through corporate theater.

The rejection of "how things are done"?
That's how you innovate.

They signed on the spot.
No follow-up deck needed.
No committee review.

And the deal was only the beginning:

I worked with that brand for 7 years!

When you can solve real problems in real-time, you don't need fancy Powerpoint to prove your worth.

ADHD isn't a deficit.
It's a different operating system.

And in a world drowning in process, sometimes you need someone who can't follow it.

My superpower isn't to be successful despite my neurodivergence.
It IS my superpower. 💎

Have you ever won an opportunity because you dared to show up differently?

If you're not investing in marketing, you're not serious about sales.

I see this mistake constantly. Just last week, a founder told me they needed 50% growth but their marketing budget was $0.

They wanted the results but refused to fuel the engine.

It's like expecting your car to run without gas.
Won't happen. Can't happen.

They think marketing is an expense.
Wrong.
It's an investment with measurable returns.

Marketing = the fuel
Sales = the outcome

More fuel → Bigger outcomes
No fuel → Stuck on the side of the road

I've watched brilliant founders with incredible products fail because they thought their work would "speak for itself."

In fact, I coached a guy 4 (!!) years ago who wanted to quit his job but wasn't willing to invest in marketing himself. Guess where he is today? You guessed right: he is still stuck in the 9 to 5 he hates, wondering why his dream never "manifected" after reading Think and Grow Rich...

Meanwhile, mediocre products with strong marketing eat their lunch.

Because visibility often trumps quality in the marketplace.

You can have the best product in the world.
If no one knows about it, you have nothing.

Stop treating marketing like it's optional.
Stop expecting magic without investment.
Stop wondering why competitors are winning while you're invisible.

The choice is stark: Invest in marketing or settle for mediocrity. 💎

What's really stopping you from investing in your marketing? Is it fear of wasting money, or just not knowing where to begin?

P.S. Q: When can you stop marketing? A: When you close your business, of course! Until then, it's 365 days per year, sweetheart.

Behind every profile… there are layers. 🍊
Most people only show you the shiny outside.
But the truth? We’re all made of multiple identities, experiences, and roles that shape how we show up.

Here are my layers — founder, human, fractional CMO, coach… and a woman who rebuilt herself more than once. When you follow my channels and subscribe to them, no surprises: this is the exactly content you can expect from me!

Thanks to Justin Bariso for recently sending me his email newsletter introduction email where instead of the usual bland salesy jargon he does the opposite:

he shares some of his layers and revealed how much we have in-common. These layers show us from an angle that a traditional professional introduction would have totally missed.

Great job, Justin, and thank you for inspiring my layered re-intro! 

Now enough of the one-dimensional "boring" intro: I want to meet your layers.
👇✨
Tell me who YOU are in 3–4 layers (and make it juicy).

I shifted my coaching business 2 yrs ago to do the thing everyone's trying to escape.

By moving from "Business Coach" to "Fractional CMO".

Revenue went up. Stress went down.

Here's why most people have it backwards:

1. Coaching Is 10x Easier… and Somehow 10x More Expensive

Let's be brutally honest:
It's easy to sit on Zoom, point at someone else's business, and tell them everything they're doing wrong.
Then charge $$$$ for it.
Then go meditate.
I saw someone on IG saying she paid her coach 500k for 2026.

For some philosophical advice?
That founder is still drowning, trying to figure out their coaches "transformational insights."
That model never sat right with me.

2. I Tried Everything — As Both Client AND Coach

I once paid $15K for a mastermind where the "breakthrough strategy" was literally:
"Just show up more authentically."

$15,000.
For advice I could've gotten from a fortune cookie.

Every coaching experience ended the same:
• Endless theory, zero implementation
• "Go watch these 47 training modules"
• "It's all about mindset" (while my business stayed stuck)

I'm running a business, not attending a philosophy seminar.
I need things that actually move revenue.

3. The Ugly Truth Nobody Admits

Coaching gives you → A Zoom recording and homework
Done-for-you gives you → A working funnel generating leads while you sleep

Coaching gives you → "Accountability check-ins"
Done-for-you gives you → Actual campaigns running

Coaching gives you → Someone else's opinion
Done-for-you gives you → Measurable results

But here's what really sealed it for me:

When coaching doesn't work, they blame YOU.
"You didn't show up fully."
"You have resistance."
"You need to work on your mindset blocks."

Convenient, right?

4. Why Done-For-You Actually Creates Freedom

I switched because I got tired of selling hope.
I wanted to sell results.

Done-for-you doesn't just tell you what to build.
It builds the damn thing.

But not just any done-for-you.
You need a strategist who executes.

Someone who:
• Thinks before building
• Aligns everything to actual KPIs
• Takes responsibility for outcomes
• Gets in the trenches with you

That's why I offer Fractional CMO services now at Unignorable Brands AI Marketing and Influencer Agency  
Strategy + execution.
Not theory. Not modules. Not "mindset work."

Real campaigns.
Real systems.
Real results.

5. The Bottom Line

If your employer is paying for coaching? 
Take it. Enjoy the free therapy.

But if you're a founder paying out of pocket?
Stop buying advice. Start buying strategy + execution.

Because while everyone else is "manifesting abundance" in their coaching circles, you could be building actual revenue systems.

Not a cheerleader.
Not a guru.
Not another "watch my course" coach.

A partner who builds alongside you. 💎

What's the one business investment you made that everyone said was "smart" but actually held you back?

What are you going to invest in for 2026?

I've been in business for 15+ years now.

And one thing that still pisses me off?

The instant judgment.

You know exactly what I mean—that look when someone's calculating your worth:
• How many followers?
• What's their title?
• Who do they know?
• What have they achieved?

They size you up in 3 seconds and decide if you matter.

Here's what they don't get:

When I meet someone, I'm not looking at who they are today.
I'm betting on who they're becoming.

Because I've watched people go from invisible to unstoppable in 6 months.

The quiet one with 200 followers? Built a 7-figure business.
The "nobody" asking beginner questions? Now running a team of 20.
The person you ignored at that networking event? Just closed a Fortune 500 client.

Growth happens fast when someone decides to go all-in.

And if you looked down on them when they were building?

Trust me. They remember.

I remember every person who dismissed me when I was starting.
Every eye roll when I said I'd build something big.
Every "expert" who acted like I wasn't worth their time.

Some of them ask for intros now.
(Funny how that works.)

So here's my advice:

Stop judging. Start supporting.

The person you encourage today might be the connection that changes your business tomorrow.

Or they might just remember you as the one person who believed in them before anyone else did.

That's worth more than any LinkedIn metric. 💎

Who's someone you believed in before they "made it"? Tag them—they need to know.

I never dreamed of being a "thought leader."

I just wanted to build things that worked.

For 15+ years, I hid behind the brands I worked for. Ran the agency. Managed teams. Developed campaigns. Never posted about it. Never talked about it.

My work would speak for itself, right?

Wrong.

The world changed while I was busy building in silence.

The algorithm became the gatekeeper.
The creators became the new CEOs.
And anonymity? That became the fastest path to extinction.

I watched mediocre consultants with great LinkedIn games steal my clients.
I watched brilliant founders fail because no one knew they existed.
I watched the loudest voices win—not the best ones.

And I finally got it:

Visibility isn't vanity.
Visibility is survival.

So I did what terrified me most.
I started telling my story.

Not the polished version.
The real one.

The divorce. The burnout. The ADHD brain that sees patterns others miss.
The 8-figure exit. The failed coaching business. The reinvention at 40.

All of it.

And everything changed.

My audience grew from 0 to 74+K.
My business transformed.
My purpose became crystal clear.

Because when people know your story, they trust you.
When they trust you, they buy from you.
When they buy from you, you actually get to help them.

Now I help founders stop being the world's best-kept secret.

Because you know what pisses me off?

Watching brilliant founders hide their genius while mediocre ones dominate the feed.

The world doesn't reward the best product.
It rewards:
• The clearest message
• The boldest positioning
• The founder who isn't afraid to be seen

We're entering a new era:
The founder IS the brand.
Trust IS the currency.
Attention IS the new real estate.

And if you're still hiding behind your work?
You're already losing.

Great brands are built by courageous founders.
Founders who speak.
Founders who stand for something.
Founders who know their story is their strategy.

My mission is simple:
Help you become unignorable.

Because you're not building just another business.
You're building a legacy.

And legacies don't whisper.

They roar. 💎

Ready to stop being invisible? Tell me what's holding you back. I don't bite but I love helping people.

I only take 5 fractional clients per year.

Here's why I make more money working less than when I had 20 clients.

Two years ago, I was drowning in "success."
20+ clients. Academy. Endless Zoom calls. Revenue looked great on paper.
But I was miserable.

Working 70-hour weeks, answering Slack at midnight, and still feeling behind.
My kids barely saw me.
My health was shot.
And the kicker? My profits were good but I had no energy to enjoy them.

So I did something insane.
I fired 75% of my clients.

Went from 20 down to 5.
Raised my prices by 4x.
And said no to everything else.

People thought I'd lost my mind.
"You're leaving money on the table!"
"You'll lose relevance!"
"Your business will die!"

Except the opposite happened.

With 5 clients, I could actually deliver transformation, not just advice.
No more surface-level strategy calls.
No more "quick check-ins" that solve nothing.
Just deep, focused work that moves real metrics.

The math is brutal but simple:

20 clients at $2K/month = $40K
But also: 80+ calls, endless context switching, mediocre results for everyone.

5 clients at $10K/month = $50K
But also: Deep focus, actual implementation, clients who rave about results.

More money. Less work. Better outcomes.

But here's what nobody tells you about extreme selectivity:

You can't fake expertise anymore.
When you only have 5 clients, each one needs to see massive ROI.
No hiding behind volume.
No blaming "implementation issues."
You either deliver or you're done.

That pressure? It made me 10x better.

I stopped selling time and started selling transformation.
Stopped being a consultant and became a true partner.
Stopped spreading myself thin and started going deep.

The clients I work with now?
They don't just pay more. They get more.
Full strategy + execution.
Direct access when it matters.
Someone who actually knows their business inside out.

And me?
I pick up my kids from school.
I don't work Fridays.
I sleep 8 hours.

The uncomfortable truth:

Most consultants are addicted to being busy.
They confuse motion with progress.
They think more clients = more success.

But dilution is the enemy of excellence.

You can serve many adequately.
Or you can serve few exceptionally.

The market rewards the second one.
Every. Single. Time.

So yeah, while I'm alway open for occassional consulting and project work, I only take fractional 5 clients per year.
Not because I'm exclusive.
Because I refuse to be mediocre.

And that refusal?
It's worth more than any amount of "busy." 💎

How many clients is too many for the quality of work you want to deliver?

⚠️Before you pay for any Black Friday coaching deal, course, or community…
read this first. It could save you thousands.

First question: Do you actually have the money this program requires?

Not the fee.
I mean the hidden costs the coach doesn't spring on you until AFTER you buy. 
Many of these programs quietly announce you'll need to spend a minimum of $5,000 a month on ads to "get results" or immediately try to upsell you into a higher tier package.
Not to mention the fancy funnel and checkout tools their systems require that will easily add another few thousand a year AND a tech genuis to set up and run.
You should know ALL that before you buy the program, not after you're already inside.

Second question: Do you (actually) have the time?

The big creators selling these offers make it look effortless.

But behind the scenes—they're working 10 to 12 hours a day to grow if they are 6-figure earners and have a team if they are 7-figures.

Meanwhile, you may still be hustling like crazy or have a full-time job so trying to grow is something you only do in your unpaid "free time."

And how long does it really take?
Not 30 days.
Not 90 days.
That's just for the sales pitch.
"Grow your LinkedIn, etc in 30 days"
The reality?
YEARS.
I kid you not.
I've helped over 250 founders, and for self-funded people without ad budgets?
It's 1–3 years to gain traction.

Third question: Do you agree morally with their tactics?

Because some coaches teach you to:
• Spam strangers' DMs
• Copy sleazy sales scripts  
• Join fake engagement pods
• Buy followers
• Hand over your passwords to overseas VAs

If that's not your style, don't buy the program—no matter how good the Black Friday discount looks.

Look, investing in yourself is great.
But heading into 2026, be smart.
Ask the right questions before you click "buy."

And if you purchase something today and instantly realize it's not right?
Ask for a refund. Immediately.
You're not stuck.
You're not obligated.
You're not wrong.
Just be honest and get your money back.

Stay smart. Stay intentional.
And don't let Black Friday shiny objects drain your 2026 budget. 💎

What Black Friday "deal" are you proudly walking away from today?

💎 P.S. Wanna know if something is a good or bad deal? Ask me. For the next week-ish, my DMs are open. Share your finds and I'll help you vet your Black Friday finds (no catch).

"Marketing doesn't work" is code for "I still think of marketing like it's 1995."

People are stuck thinking marketing means:

• TV commercials everyone skips
• Flyers stuffed in mailboxes nobody checks
• Magazine ads nobody reads
• Mall kiosks in malls that barely exist

That world is dead.

But I bought 3 things yesterday without leaving my couch.

Here's how I actually buy now:

1/ Instagram: Scroll, see something interesting, Apple Pay, done. 
Bought a $497 course last week in 12 seconds flat.

2/ Google: Need something specific? Search, check reviews, buy from whoever makes it easiest.
If your checkout takes 17 steps, I'm already gone.

3/Podcasts/YouTube: Love someone's content for months, they mention their service, I buy immediately.
No sales call needed. Trust was already built.

4/ Clean websites: One clear offer. One button. One path. Confusion = lost sale.

5/ Trusted endorsements: Someone I respect says "check this out"—I check it out.
If the offer's good, I'm in.

The old marketing interrupted people.
The new marketing serves people.

Old way: Shout at everyone and hope 2% care.
New way: Be findable when someone's looking. Be trustworthy when they find you. Be easy to buy from.

Marketing isn't broken.
Your strategy is still living in the shopping mall era while your customers are buying from their beds at 2am on their phones (yes, they know it's bad but they do it anyway).

Modern marketing is just three things:
✅ Be discoverable (SEO, social, content)
✅ Be trustworthy (social proof, consistency, value)
✅ Be frictionless (one-click buying, clear offers)

Stop interrupting.
Start serving.

That's the whole game. 💎

What was the last thing you bought online? Bet it wasn't from a newspaper ad.

Saw something today that broke my brain.

A creator I really admire—not even 30 yrs old, built an 8-figure course business, single mom—posted about being rejected from guesting on a podcast.

The podcast team told her she didn't "qualify."

Eight figures in her 20s yet does'nt qualify. 🤯

I sat there staring at my screen thinking: If SHE feels inadequate, we're all screwed.

Then I started laughing. Not funny laughing. That dark, existential kind where you realize how absurd this all is.

Think about it:

Our ancestors had one job: **Don't die.**

That's it. That was success.
Find food. Stay warm. Make babies. Hope they survive.

Now? You can make millions, have perfect health, build an empire—and some gatekeeper on the internet tells you you're not enough.

A thousand years ago, nobody knew if the guy two villages over had better crops.
Fifty years ago, you only compared yourself to maybe 20 people.

Today? You're competing with 7 billion humans. In real-time. With filters.

Of course we all feel like failures.
The scoreboard is infinite.

Here's the uncomfortable truth:

You will NEVER feel like you've "made it" if the bar keeps moving.

Not at $100K.
Not at $1M.
Not at $10M.

Someone will always be younger, richer, more viral, more "successful."

But what if making it means something else entirely?

What if it's:
• You're safe
• You have people who love you
• Your body works
• You create things you're proud of
• You actually want to wake up tomorrow

Maybe that's the real achievement.
Maybe that's already success.

Because if a beautiful, super smart young woman with 8 figures still feels inadequate...

Maybe the problem isn't our achievements.
It's how we're keeping score. 💎

When did you realize "making it" was a moving target?

✨ Join me in celebrating a huge win for Neil Winward today. ✨

This week, his newsletter was ranked "Rising in Finance" on Substack — one of the most competitive categories on the platform.

Not #1.
Not a trophy moment.
But something far more meaningful:

➡️ The platform recognized his work
➡️ His newsletter gained real momentum  
➡️ He's being pushed to thousands of new readers in finance

This is what I call a quiet win — the kind that actually shapes your future visibility.

Everyone wants the big breakthrough moment…
But breakthroughs rarely start loud.
They start like this:

A nudge from the algorithm.
A small acknowledgment.
A tiny shift in momentum that whispers,
"Keep going — the engine is turning."

This is how visibility compounds.
This is how your ENGINE builds.
Quiet → Consistent → Unstoppable.

If you're in the "invisible phase," don't quit.
Your quiet win is coming — and it could happen this week.

And if you care about Finance, Energy, or Macroeconomics, you must follow Neil on Substack! His content is insane. 🔥

People often ask me how I got a Top Voices badge on LinkedIn - same way we are working on Neil's content on Substack. I am not in it to follow fads but to create timeline content that helps you rise to the top. 👆

Want help building the engine that gets you seen (and quckly stand out)?

DM me ENGINE and I'll send you the details💎

Training is an investment, not a miracle.

We work with companies that understand this!

Because the real magic happens after the workshop - for the leaders who show up for their teams, not the ones who treat training like a one-and-done afterthought while watching their business slowly fall apart.

And here’s the reality:

🚫 Poor service damages your brand
🚫 Disengaged employees sabotage progress
🚫 Weak leadership drives good people out the door

Our workshops are custom-designed in collaboration with leaders who are:

➡️ Losing customers and revenue
➡️ Exhausted by high turnover and leadership burnout
➡️ Spending money on training that never delivers results
➡️ Bleeding profit due to poor service and an unprepared team

That’s why we’ve built our training on four key pillars:
Leadership, Team Building, Communication Skills and Customer Service Culture.
