Marci Moberg has been on a journey. One that brought her to Washington, DC for a government job, saw her get married, then divorced and took her all over the world before returning to DC. She finally found her way home when she decided to listen to her body and follow her intuition. We all have those gut feelings when something just feels right. Or wrong.

Growing Pains
Tuesday Oct 01, 2019
Tuesday Oct 01, 2019
Your business is growing! Yay! That's good news. Right? Usually, yes. But not always. Growing too fast is one of the main reasons small businesses fail. We can't sustain the product, or we bank on always being that busy. Then that business goes away and we can't stay afloat. So let's change our thinking. Slow growth is ok! Can be great! And one author has a radical idea - No Growth. There's no real right or wrong way - no matter what any business tells you. And we both have business coaches. The trick is finding what works for you, and following that path.
And even after years of owning our businesses, we are still learning that lesson.

Tuesday Aug 20, 2019
Mistakes happen. We all make them, they're painful, but they don't have to be fatal. If you change the way you look at the situation, you'll see that mistakes can teach you something, and it's how we learn from these mistakes that can make us stronger, and better business people and human beings. But the first thing we need to learn is that we can't keep holding onto a mistake just because we spent such a long time making it.

Rejected! But that's Not Always Bad

Who has never felt rejection? It's not a nice feeling, and we used to always feel bad after being rejected. But then we learned to embrace rejection! Sounds weird, but as business professionals we've had our share of rejection and through those, we have learned to push past the No's and use them to our advantage.
