Ok, let's be real. What comes up for you when you hear the words "spiritual awakening?" 

If you're like I was, the idea of spiritual awakening probably seems like a fringe concept. Something for saints or monks, but not for you. 

It's probably not even on your radar, or if it is, it probably feels completely out of reach. 

I get it. That was me. But, what if I told you that awakening is not the "woo-woo" stuff you think it is?

When you take away all the mental labels, awakening is just about understanding that there is another way to live. A way of living connected to your Creator. You can call it God, Source, Consciousness, Universe, or whatever language feels right. It's not about what you call it; it’s about learning to call on it. Making the effort to get still and learn the truth.
 
Why would you want to do this? Well, it's pretty simple. It is the only way to find lasting peace, joy, and fulfillment in your life. 

How do I know? Because I had to learn this the hard way. By the age of 45, I had achieved all my dreams and reached the pinnacle of my success. I had the dream job, the dream partner, and the dream house.  Then, the bottom began to fall out. 

I was experiencing a sort of quiet misery on a regular basis that began to seep into every area of my life. I couldn't escape the feeling that something was still missing. I looked at my life and wondered "Is this all there is?" 

Let me tell you, it's a rude awakening when you have achieved everything you set out to achieve and you still feel unfulfilled.

Instead of accepting that this was just how life my life was going to be, I decided to discover the source of my discontent.

You see, the problem wasn't my life. The problem was how I was approaching my life. 
•	I was approaching my life from the outside in, rather than the inside it.
•	I saw my life as a grind, rather than a gift.
•	I thought my answers were out there, rather than within.

Everything changed when I learned to do the REAL work of my life. I learned to listen to my inner voice, and it guided me to the truth of who I am, and why I'm here. This was my "awakening," and it's how I was able to finally release the quiet misery and experience the joy, peace and fulfillment I had always been seeking.

Awakening is for all of us: the rebels, the skeptics, the never-settlers, the non-conformists, and even the recovering perfectionists. 

I am here to share what I have learned so that we all may awaken to the truth. I am here to help you do the REAL work of your life.

Iconic Selling 

Marketing may be the neck, but your sales team is the head. 

Without them, you won’t have a business. 

Because while marketing gets you known, your Sales Team gets you PAID.💰

The last time I checked, likes and views don’t pay any bills and cannot be counted as revenue. 

🔷Do we throw out social media efforts? 
🔷Do we stop engaging in social selling? 
🔷Do we exclude DMs from our sales strategy? 

In the ever changing landscape of the internet, if you don’t have an online presence, no one takes you seriously. 

💎And people now would rather buy something their favorite influencer recommends than dealing with yet another cold email. 

This new sales era can be a nightmare for your sales team and for your bottom line. 

It’s time to level ⬆️up your company's sales strategy. 

🟢Teaching your sales team how to start social selling and exactly how to stand out will catapult you to the top in this new sales era. 

Let me show you how. 

Back in the dinosaur days,(pre-internet) you needed a yellow pages book, a phone, and definitely a door to door team. 

I myself have 

🟣knocked on hundreds of doors, 
🟢cold called thousands of people, 
🟠and had to prepare my prospect lists from phone books and industry directories.

👉🏾But then the internet came. And prospecting became a bit easier. 

Then social media came and before we knew it, a whole new way of selling emerged. 

Now when a brand wants to sell something, they offer an influencer or a micro influencer a package to promote the product. 

It works. 

❓But instead of putting all of your budget into the hands of influencers, how about we train your Sales team to become their own influencers and treat your company as their best client. 

The results? 

More exposure. Better leads. Higher quality relationships. More sales. 

💠More sales. More sales. More sales. 

This is new sales training for the new sales era!

There are over half a billion entrepreneurs globally seeking to help people and make an abundant amount of money doing it. 

How many of them are hands-on Parents? 

There are no hard numbers, but more and more we are seeing Moms, Dads, and even Grandparents taking on the colossal responsibility of raising kids and building a business. 

The juggle is real. 

You want your business to provide for you and your family but you’re realizing that your business is taking you farther and farther away from quality + quantity time with your children. 

You have 2 options: 

❌Keep trading your time for money and miss out on everyday moments, until your child is no longer a child. It’s too late to turn back time.

🟢Get the right help you need to design and execute your dream business so you can have a dream life with your children.

How many people do you know that look back and really regret choosing their business over hands-on parenting? 

All of them did the best they could. 

But they just didn’t know HOW to consistently get their business to start working for them so they could actually pick up their kid after school. 

❌But that’s not going to be your story. 

🟢Because I can give your business the holistic help it needs to buy you back your time. 

I have helped other Parentpreneurs get consistent & profitable months while enjoying time freedom. 

Before you know it, you actually have a life filled with fun, spontaneous moments with your children.  

And money. Lots of money. 

With me by your side you will: 
💎Diversify your income streams 
💎Automate your business 
💎Learn how to market and sell 
💎And finally stop juggling and start being with your kids. 

👉🏾So, if you’re sick and tired of missing out on those precious moments because you’re stuck in your business, DM me, and take your first step to success.
