What if I told you that choosing a revenue goal was only the first step in New Year’s goal setting?

In this last episode of 2025, I’m walking you through a simple two-step process to create your roadmap for the new year. You'll clarify not just *what* you want, but the best strategy for *how* to get there—the part most goal-setting content skips over.

We cover everything from defining your dream lifestyle and personal income goal to reverse engineering how many clients you need, how to price your services for success, and which marketing platform to actually commit to.

If you've felt lost or overwhelmed trying to turn your goals into reality, this episode is for you!

Click play to learn:

• Why revenue goals aren’t enough—and how stopping here sets you up for failure
• The 2-step method to align your big goals with a clear weekly action plan
• How to work backwards from your revenue goal to calculate the exact number of clients and leads you need (and at what price point)
• The real reason why
• The power of deciding how you want to feel along the way, and why accessing those feelings now (not someday) changes everything

One simple sentence can determine whether or not someone buys from you.

If you've ever sent a proposal and had a lead ghost you, or gotten objections you didn't see coming, this episode is your answer to what went wrong.

Forget everything you think you know about selling. It's not about being the most aggressive, confident, or pushy person in the room—it's about becoming a better listener.

In this episode, we're breaking down the science behind what *really* makes people buy, and why your clients care more about feeling heard than they do about your price tag.

You'll discover the underrated sales call step that's missing from most entrepreneurs' processes, tactical listening strategies that increase conversions, and the one magic question that prevents miscommunication before it costs you clients.

Click play to learn:

• Why listening is the #1 skill you need to be successful in sales
• The surprising research on what really makes people buy (it’s not your expertise or your pricing)
• How to make your clients feel seen and heard throughout the buying process
• The crucial sales call step most entrepreneurs skip that’s costing you conversions—and how to fix it

Through her programs, she’s helped hundreds of women launch template shops, courses, and scalable offers while creating a life on their terms.

Making a big shift in your business can feel terrifying—especially when you're in the thick of it. But the messy middle is often where the real growth happens.

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own business evolution and the shifts (both mindset and strategic) that made it possible.

My business has been quietly evolving behind the scenes for the better part of a year now. And as tempting as it is to wait until I have everything figured out before I share publicly, the purpose of this show has always been to bring you along the journey with me!

In this conversation with my dear friend RuthAnn (which originally aired on her podcast), I'm sharing the unfiltered journey from sales copywriter to coach, including the self-doubt, the wins, the setbacks, and what I wish someone had told me…

If you're thinking about making a change in your business but you're afraid to make the leap, or you're already in the middle of a transition and feeling overwhelmed, this is for you!

Click play to learn:

• How to know when it's time to pivot your business model—and how to start to bridge the gap between the business you have today and the one you want
• What no one tells you about navigating the messy middle of transition seasons
• My #1 advice for overcoming self-doubt and imposter syndrome
• What to do if you make a big shift in your life/business and it *doesn’t* work out
