Intro to SEO and How to Choose the Right Keywords

You've got a lot going on. You have hobbies, you have family, you run an epic business.

Sometimes the days go by quickly and you're like, oh, I didn't get as much output as I wanted to.

That's where search engine optimization can be so epic.

When we create and publish content that helps our search engine optimization, the algorithm of Google and of other search engines actually picks it up. And for years to come, that article might sit on page one of Google. Your website might continue to pop up because people are finding a lot of value in what you've created. And you don't have to go back in and edit it all the time. You don't have to go create a new viral piece of content. So there's a lot of longevity.

Everything You Need to Know About Hosting an In-Person Retreat

Running an Online Business 💻offers so many amazing opportunities— from being able to operate a business without physical storefronts, all the way to connecting with clients around the globe. It’s such a gift to be able to work remotely, and do what I love from my laptop.

However, no matter how convenient the miracles of modern technology may be — nothing compares with in-person connection!

The connectivity formed from face-to-face hang outs (and no, I’m NOT referring to staring at someone’s face through Zoom!) is truly irreplaceable, which is why I decided to host our 3rd official Visionary Meet Up at a restaurant called Planted In Hamilton and we had 16 amazing visionaries (past + present clients of mine, and students of our Visionary Courses) who came from all over!

10 Marketing Strategies for Coaches to Attract More Clients

Do you ever feel like marketing your coaching business and finding new clients all of the time is a full-time job?

Do you dream about outsourcing your marketing to an agency or hiring a team-member to help you?

Or perhaps you just wish you could ‘wave a magic wand’ and clients would find your services (don’t we all wish that were an option!)

If you’re nodding along to any (or all) of these statements, you’re not alone!

Over 50% of the clients that I work with tell me that they wish they could just have someone ELSE take over their entire marketing strategy, but the honest truth is that most times that ends up being a huge financial risk with very little return on investment.

The reason that outsourcing your marketing to an agency barely works is because the secret sauce of your coaching business is YOU and YOUR intellectual property.

How to Start a Meditation Practice Even If You’ve NEVER meditated before

Back in 2016 I started working as a Freelancer and I was working out of a coworking space Downtown Toronto. I’m a social person, so I found a coworking space with other solo founders, entrepreneurs and creatives and signed myself up for a 3 month pass.

The very first day that I worked out of this coworking space, a lovely woman named Kieran asked me if I wanted to go out and grab lunch.

We picked up some food around Noon and then headed to a park to have a picnic. It was a gorgeous sunny day in September and I remember how warm and kind she was, even though we had only met hours prior.

At the end of our lunch, Kieran asked me if I had ever meditated.
