In this episode we'll be delving deep into the art of delegation—I'll be sharing the valuable lessons I've learned from three impactful books that have greatly influenced my delegation habits, along with discussing the importance of clear instructions, how to define what "done" looks like, and the value of owning your work. Tune in to gain insight into the challenges and difficulties that come with delegation and learn how to navigate them with clarity, kindness, and ownership.

One of the biggest bottlenecks that I see creative entrepreneurs and small business owners experience is made by juggling multiple platforms trying to manage their online business. Can you relate from your website to your email list to your sales pages? It can be overwhelming and time consuming. Kajabi is the all in one platform that I personally use to manage my membership, my online courses, my classes, my workshops, my sales pages, my opt-in pages, and honestly, even my actual website is hosted on Kajabi. It's like having a personal assistant for your online business because it also has a super intuitive interface and easy to use tools that help you manage your courses or your memberships or your digital products.

Review of the week:
My 10 seconds of courage will be to go Live!
I just finished listening to episode #20 - Learning to love going live, and I wanted to thank Bonnie for sharing her fears and how she overcame going face to face and live. Great encouragement and inspiration! I appreciate the accompanying free download live call planner. One thing I plan to do in 2023 is to take my 19 seconds of courage and go face to face with my subscribers.
