Mine has been lovely, and I'm thrilled because I just got back to my favorite beach front retreat spot, where I'll be for a whole week.

It's on the same island that I live on, but on a different end of the island from where I live, so it feels like a whole different beach.

I'm all nestled in with a pile of books, my laptop, my guitar, and 6 dogs (1 is mine and 5 are my friend's who I'm dog sitting for). 

It's soooo peaceful and tranquil here. I love it.

The house is on the beach, but the island is really narrow at this end, so the marina/inlet is across the street. Here's a boat I found today that I love called Sea Whisper.

And you can see some more pictures of the house and stuff on Facebook here.
 

We had a super successful release party for our new personal transformation app... we ended up with over 860 new active users and over 1100 total users since everyone is allowed to add up to 7 family members for free on their account. Not bad for a couple of weeks worth of promoting, right?

I'm excited too because I won a Gimbal in the release party affiliate contest! So I'm about to be able to up-level my TikTok videos and Reels! I'm thrilled!

We've been hearing so many amazing testimonials from people who are using the app for their morning routines or just to stay focused throughout the day or stay on track to hit their goals. It's so cool to see people stepping up their game, including many who had never really done personal development before. We are changing the world in such a good way, and I'm thrilled, honored, and so proud to be a part of it.

If you want to try the app out for yourself, it's only $10, and it pays 80% commissions just like our other products... so it's easy to make your money back by sharing it with a couple of people.

It's a web app too which I love, so it works on desktop and mobile and it doesn't need to be downloaded so it doesn't take up any space on our devices.

Anyway, you can learn more here if you are interested.

And here's your recap from the week in case you missed anything... 

This Week on YouTube

I can’t wait to share my super easy process with you for making a beautiful vision board using Canva! 

In this video, I will show you how simple it is to use your favorite images on the internet without needing to save them to your computer first (huge time saver and storage saver!)…. and how to instantly place them into a stunning Canva template where they will be framed and resized automatically! 
 

You can watch the video here.
 

Also This Week on YouTube

I am loving having this new app that our company (the Home Business Academy) acquired to help keep me on track with my morning routine.
 

To illustrate, I shot a quick little 3-minute video to show you what my morning process using the app looks like on my phone.

Start Your Year Off Right

I have a new resource for you to help you start your year off powerfully!

What's cool is that this was a bonus that was only available for our paying members inside of our community... but we decided to make it available to the public since so many people need help getting on track with their goals and their mindset at this time of year.

I am elated that I get to share this with you! It's a resource that has made an enormous difference in my life.

It's called The Magical Morning Formula: The 7 Simple Steps For Touching Daily Magic and it's a super powerful training that was created by one of our co-founders, my dear friend Paul Hutchings.

Not only is a he a brilliant genius in so many ways, but he has also used the steps he has laid out for you in this training to totally transform his own life.

AND- when you get your training (it's free by the way) you will also get with it The Little Book Of Magic Affirmations, another resource authored by Paul... a little book chock full of so many affirmations that you can use in lots of different ways to up level your life and business.
 

You can grab it all here for free.
 

New Resource (FREE!)

This Week's Exclusive Training (New!)

I've been given the honor of serving our community in a new way for the couple of months. I was asked to share an over-the-shoulder training for our Premium members to show some of my marketing strategies. 

This is our Traffic & Conversions mastermind, which happens every day, Monday - Friday and is always so filled with gold... and our community loves being able to spend this time together each day to get all of their questions answered and to have the opportunity to get to know each other on a deeper level.

I was recently asked if I would teach on Thursdays, so that's what I've been doing. 

It's different every week... I just teach whatever I happen to be working on at the moment.

This week I showed how I repurpose my longer TikTok videos on YouTube (as a regular video, not a short... since TikTok videos can be up to 10 minutes long but YouTube shorts have to be 60 seconds or less). 
 

I also showed how I repurpose them on my stories where I can add a live link to send people directly to wherever it is that I want them to be able go next.

Last week, I shared how I set my live streams up in StreamYard and then how I can promote them before they happen to give people a heads up ahead of time.

As I said, it will be different every week, and we have different people teaching on the other days of the week as well, so it's one of the best places I've ever seen to come and get trained over-the-shoulder by people who are getting great results with their marketing... and these marketing strategies apply to any business at all!

I can't share the training with you, as it's exclusive in the back office for our Premium members.

But... here's the good news! 

If you want to watch the replay and any of the other replays (we have ALL of the replays available in a playlist)... you can get instant access to it inside of our Premium membership. 

When you join our All-In-One Business here for only $25, you will get two full FREE weeks of Premium, so not only can you watch the replays from our masterminds and go through all of the marketing strategy training in the back office, but you will also get to attend all of our live masterminds for 2 full weeks, for free! 

We have 7 Zoom masterminds every week, so this is a great way to come and get the training and comradery that you need to get your business going!

It's seriously a win-win, and you can get access here (just be sure and click the box at checkout to access your 2 free weeks of Premium). 

And then I will see you on Zoom this week! 

Featured Short Form Video

In this one-minute video, I showed you how I use the Let’s Goal app to help me create my short form videos way faster using the 'notes' feature of the app. 

I also showed you a neat website that I love to use to add cool symbols to my funnels and short form videos when I'm working on my desktop.
 

A Sneak Peek Into Our Community & Back Office

Yesterday, we pulled back the curtain on one of our Saturday new member orientation sessions... so that people who are not members inside of the Home Business Academy yet could come hang out with us and see what we're all about.

• our tools and training
• affiliate marketing (we pay 80% commissions for referrals on our products)
• how we've been able to provide 216,569 meals so far to starving children 
• our community
• anything else...

You can watch the replay from the orientation here.
 

Meet Our Community

I am so proud of my online community- we are entrepreneurs from all types of niches and spaces, and from all walks of life.

But we have one thing in common... we are all heart-centered people who believe in building businesses in a principle centered way.

I wanted to invite you to come meet us... to get a taste of what a powerful core community feels like- in case you are wanting something like this for yourself. 

Here is some new footage to give you a taste of what our community is like.

You may notice a common word that everyone says... family.

Our community has been described as:
 

"It's like a real family." - Gaetan Henaux

"Warming. Full of love" - Gregory Pierre-Louis

"Very different. We do everything together," - Gio Ambrose Gionta
 

And more- as you will see in the video.

It really is like a family here. Go see for yourself.
