Why Startups Need Leaders, Not Bosses
There's no place where strong leadership is needed more than in a hectic startup environment in which the odds are most stacked against you, and Herculean efforts to gain and maintain traction are required daily, not quarterly. So I see the distinction between the two mindsets an important one to make.

How to Name a Business
What's in a name? A lot, when it comes to small-business success. The
right name can make your company
the talk of the town. The wrong one can doom it to obscurity and failure. Ideally, your name should convey the expertise, value and uniqueness of the product or service you have developed.

Women Spill What It's Really
Like to Own a  Business
Leaving your cushy job (with its consistency and security) to start your own business can feel like jumping off a cliff without a parachute. That feeling comes from the sudden unknown you'll face: When will I turn a profit? Will anyone buy what I'm selling? Is this crazy?

Culinary Construction: What You Should Know About Building a Food Business
Construction is never a pretty thing. Most homeowners who have been through it act as though they've been through battle. In some extreme cases, I've even seen it end marriages. And commercial construction? Well, let's just say that comparing the renovation of a home to the build-out of a commercial kitchen space is like comparing a bruise to a bullet wound.

A Vision Board Event: Reflecting on the Past Envisioning the Future
March 11 | 12:00pm - 3:00pm 
Having a clear vision of the end result is the most important step to success whether in business or personal growth. One of my favorite quotes is "start with the end in mind" by Stephen Covey for this exact reason. Vision brings inspiration! With inspiration you will now find stopping at the end of the day is hard, and you will want to begin as soon as possible in the morning. Procrastination disappears, fear falls away and challenges melt like butter!
Make it a top priority to define YOUR vision! At least, create a short term vision to use until the longer term vision becomes clearer.
A Vision Board is a tool to help clarify, concentrate and maintain focus on a specific life goals that represent whatever you want to be, do or have in your life.
A vision board is quite literally a collage of pictures, phrases, poems and quotes that visually represent what you would like to experience in your life.
Vision Boards serve several purposes:
- Identify your vision and give it clarity.
- Reinforce your daily affirmations.
- Keep your attention on your intentions.
