Build Busiuness Confidence Through Action!

New episode! 🎧 #116: Go Confidently Hey Reader, I was sitting in the lobby of the Renaissance Orlando when I spotted a woman I had just seen speak on stage the day before. Her talk was about how to best prepare for a project (in this case a podcast). Now, I consider myself to be a *very* prepared person... (not going to use the term OCD, but let's just say I have an EXTREMELY well organized Tupperware cabinet.) But as I listened to Julie Delucca-Collins share tips on how to best prep, I found myself furiously scribbling notes. Why? Because she wasn't just sharing hot takes, she was connecting each action to how it builds something we can all use more of: Confidence. I called out to her in the lobby and thanked her for her talk. Cut to an hour later and we'd exchanged cell phone numbers and planned several ways to collaborate, including today's episode where Julie joined me to share some of her best tips on how being prepared helps run her business. One of my biggest takeaways from our chat is that you don't need confidence to get started. Rather, confidence gets built after you take action. So we talked about what actually creates confidence in your business: → Preparation And how waiting to feel “ready”? That’s actually the thing keeping you stuck. ✨ Listen to the full episode here: Episode #116: Go Confidently: Business Systems & Being Prepared with Julie Delucca-Collins As you know, I am committed to helping you simplify, get clear, and take messy action to grow your biz, and this convo will help you do all three! If you enjoy the podcast and you have an extra minute, please take a moment to rate it! This helps me get it in the ears of more entrepreneurs and it will be so greatly appreciated. Now, tell me: What helps you build confidence? Do you have a tip or trick for getting prepared? I'd love to hear them. Hit reply and share it! xo, Deborah |

Before I say anything else, I want to take a moment to remember what Memorial day is actually for. It's to honor the legacy and bravery of men and women who went off to defend our freedoms and didn't come home, and for the many families who never stopped waiting. These freedoms we move through so casually every single day are because someone else paid for it, and I don't take that for granted. Several members of my family including my grandfather and 2 uncles were enlisted during wartime and...
A PR expert once pitched a story to a reporter in 6 sentences. No media kit or fancy credentials. No long-winded backstory. Just six clear, purposeful sentences. And it worked. Now here's the thing. Before you ever write that pitch, there's a step most people skip entirely. And it's probably why so many of us think "I'm not ready yet" when it comes to getting visible beyond our own social media bubbles. What is that step? Getting radically clear on your message. In this week's episode of...
