When my children were little, I worked a lot from home. While I was getting things done in my business, they were trashing their bedrooms. One of my boys (who is now a novelist in the making and an inspired creative) had trouble when it was time to clean his room.
I’d tell him to clean, walk away, and come back to find nothing done and him standing there staring at the mess. Finally, I realized it wasn’t that he was disobedient or lazy. He was overwhelmed about where to start. So I’d get in there with him, a trash bag in hand, and say, “First we’re going to pick up the trash.” He’d get right in there with me and work to pick up the trash. He wasn’t afraid to work. In fact, this boy will work until he drops.
Then I’d say, “Let’s pick up your dirty clothes now.” By the time the trash and clothes were off the floor, things were starting to look a bit more manageable. We’d then focus on putting the toys away, and so forth. With me by his side, breaking things down, we could clean that room in fairly short order.
I’ve found that my clients (who are also inspired creatives) often feel a lot like my son in their businesses. They are willing to do the work. They aren’t lazy. They just feel at a loss about where to start or how to do what needs to be done.
Over the last few years I’ve been traveling to some of their homes or meeting with them at retreat locations. I work alongside them for 2-5 days and help them make huge strides in their businesses. This is a fun experience for me and them. We both come away with a great sense of accomplishment, and I’m absolutely thrilled to see them getting their brilliance out in the world.
But traveling to people’s locations isn’t always possible or affordable for the client. That’s why I’ve started a new service which I call my VIP WOW Days where I assess your project and work alongside you to get it done. I bring my full range of experience together on your project.
My expertise lies in content creation, information product development, tribe building, collaborative creation and marketing, book writing and publishing, social media launches, and technological assistance. Mix in my certification in belief-shifting work with my 23 years in business, and there’s not much I can’t help you accomplish with your business online.
