I’m looking for 10 people who are working toward launching their new or revised offers and are willing to be on 2 group sessions where I can help you but also ask you some questions!
Spots are limited so I’m going to give you a form to fill out so I can reach out to you with the dates/times of the Zoom sessions.

Today's Refocus Session shares a process I use OFTEN but I also often need to be reminded to do this...and that is CUT down my to-do list.

If you need more white space in your life and are tired of feeling TIRED and strung out and stressed out when you don't finish things, this episode is for you.
Okay, let's get to it!
