Eh. We all have those moments, those days or even those months when we feel like this, right? Eh. Things may not be in flow, things may be in transition, things may feel like they're completely upside down -- in your business or in your life. It happens to all of us. On this episode of Support is Sexy, I share how a flashback moment to work that I created back in 1994 reminded me to keep going and keep dreaming, and how you can, too.
Sometimes we get tense at just the thought of discussing money, much less actually discussing it. On this episode, we're going to talk about money, self-worth, what we're charging and why you should probably charge more!
"No" is just a part of the process. We know this intellectually, but hearing the word when we're putting ourselves out on a limb, going for what we want, asking for support -- can still sting. But what does "no" really mean? Do we give it more power than it deserves? In this episode, I ask some of these questions, and offer a few of the answers that will help you get over your fear of "no."
On this episode of the Support is Sexy podcast, professional makeup artist Syretta Bell -- who is now the head of the makeup department at Tyler Perry Studios -- talks about surrounding yourself with people who believe in you before you believe in yourself, how to tap into something you naturally do well and just a few of the must-have items in her makeup bag.
We can consume FOREVER, right? Taking the courses, watching the videos, listening to the podcasts (thank you)! But at what point do you become a creator? Don't get stuck in the consumer phase -- which can make you feel like you're doing something. On this episode of the Support is Sexy podcast, I offer some ideas for how to go from consumer to creator.

How often have you let something slide or told yourself that you're letting it go, only to have it eat at you for the next few days, weeks, however long? If that's you, then it's time to do a check in. On this episode I share a recent unintentional slight that bothered the hell out of me, and how not saying anything to stand up for myself bothered me even more!
On this episode of Support is Sexy podcast, Cheryl Clements, PieShell Founder and CEO, shares how the influence of her mom inspired her new company and how she provides a unique crowdfunding platform that serves food entrepreneurs.

On this journey of entrepreneurship and creating something new and sexy in your business and life, you will stumble along the way. Some will be small missteps, and some will be spectacular failures. The thing is, you have to keep going. Acknowledge the moment, and know that this, too, shall pass. You can make it through this. You may stumble, but do not stop!

Too often we get caught up in this phrase, "Make it happen" when it comes to our businesses, and too often we beat ourselves up for not "making something happen" that was completely outside of our control. In this episode I encourage you to set aside the obsession with making it happen and instead do the work, and let it happen.

As we wrap our series this week on "Why Are You Hiding?" we address the fear many of us harbour about what comes after the success. Instead of living in the moment, or going after the goal with all of our might, we worry about the repeat performance. Here's how to get out of your own head and get out there! [Music: "Easy" by SPCZ, 2016 and "Latin Rhythm" by Sunsearcher, 2009]
Yes, it's possible: You can, indeed, have a fear of success. It's time for a check in to see if you're holding yourself back from grabbing hold of a goal that's well within reach because you're afraid of what will happen once you've crossed the finish line. It's time to drop that baggage and finish strong!
