Do you ever just wonder... when is enough enough?

Will I ever feel like I've "made it"?

Is it even possible to achieve satisfaction as an entrepreneur?

In this episode, I am sharing with you about the HUGE epiphany I've had this month about where I am at and how I'm feeling in business.

Spoiler alert: I'm feeling satisfied, fulfilled and CHILL for the first time ever about where I am at.

These are my reflections on the inner and outer work it took to get here.

My harvest era.

It wasn't that long ago that I *demanded* my business become more reciprocal and I knew things had to change...

I remember deeply reflecting last April if I would continue my business at all,

And in November of 2024 I decided to focus more on writing and speaking since speaking gigs have been paying me most generously.

I'm happy to say that I've really stuck to that focus of serving my existing communities (including The Hive now!) and the speaking and writing.

AND - I am at a spot where I would truly use the word "thriving" to describe my business and it's not just a numbers thing.

It's an energy thing.

It's a reciprocity thing.

It's a fulfillment thing.

Melinda Jackson is back by popular demand! In this episode, they are spilling the tea on a recent cringe-worthy dinner they paid to be at that turned into a high pressure coaching sales presentation. From this dinner, Melinda is highlighting some of the most classic manipulative and unethical tactics that plague not only events like this but our very own coaching industry! Basically, this is another "what NOT to do" episode.

*This time we are expanding onto even more unbelievable details from the dinner as well as similar experiences we've had with coaches.

We discuss:

• Being love bombed by coaches
• Being dropped and ignored once you're no longer a paying client
• Manipulation disguised as "feminine sales"
• Spotting narcissistic qualities in a coach
• And so much more

We will be back with a part 3 on what TO do in order to build your business in a non-icky, healthy and ethical way!
