Before I begin, simply writing the word 'judge' brought a lump to my throat since the recent death of a woman I admired greatly, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. It is an enormous loss, and I mourn her passing. When my fabulous wardrobe stylist, Scarlett...
Me! I had a photo shoot with the remarkable Katie Settel this week. I had author shots taken a year ago, but wanted to update my website, social media and marketing offers with a fresh look. The past collection was no longer speaking to me, plus I've added 'artist'...
I hear that message in my head when I reject something out of hand. Like Instagram. Too many hashtags and paper airplane thingy's. I want to reject it (before it rejects me). That voice--"Have you even tried?"-- comes from a wonderful anecdote I heard Susan Daniels...
What does Harry's and Meghan's 'step back' from royal duties have to do with small business, entrepreneurship or anything I might choose to write about? Why would the 6th in line for the throne be important to me as a business owner? The fact is, I'm completely...
The Women's Media Group (WMG) provides content-rich programming that I am fully taking advantage of. If you're a writer of any kind, this info will be useful to you. At last week's noon hour event entitled Beyond the Book: How Authors, Publishers and Agents are...
Although it released on Wednesday, November 22, my podcast interview with the wonderful Elaine Benoit should not be missed in the pre and post-Thanksgiving busy-ness. She conducts a meaningful dialogue which I hope you'll listen to. It was a total pleasure being...
I don't know how you are about having your headshot taken, but chances are, it's not high on your list of priorities. Yes, we see your candids all the time on Facebook, but you may be more like me on the professional side and put off updating your marketing images...
I'm at Google, using their free wifi, and learning stuff about wordpress and adwords so I can make my business grow. So far, a couple of hours in, the most memorable, informative and inspiring talk was just given by Michelle Weber on blogging. Here's what I want to...
I don't remember how this started, but someone told me that all of my social media photos should be the same. When I asked my newsletter helper which image I should choose, she suggested that I ask my friends and family. In other words, 2015-speak, put it up on...
I've never met Madie Hodges, but I like her already. As the Community Manager for Kabbage (which I'd never heard of until she introduced herself), she'd found my blog on the internet and reached out to suggest a topic for my posts: "How can entrepreneurs use their...
My Mastermind Intensive, aka the Bolders, had the privilege of listening to Jeff Seaver of Seaver Interactive talk about what social media is and isn't. He was our guest expert last Friday. We were riveted by his humor, his candor and the enormity of his knowledge...
"You're here under false pretenses," Jonathan Landman told us on Saturday afternoon in his opening remarks for Cornwall Conversations which was billed as: "the future of media and communications by two people who should know: Jonathan Landman, editor-at-large at...
Every month I invite an expert to address my Mastermind Intensive. Yesterday, Nancy Moon of MoonPR joined us and generously filled us in on how to get press in new day and age--through traditional and new media. She took an overwhelming topic and distilled it down...
Lena West of Influence Expansion ruffled the feathers, in a good way, of my monthly Mastermind Group last Friday. She shared her 9-Step System for managing and thriving with social media and made it sound possible. While I won't share her entire program, I do want...
