How would earning 6 figures make you feel? Statistics show that only 25% of women who make this amount feel safe, secure and confident. Now I’m on a mission to boost this number. I’m one of the 9% who makes six figures, and I got to where I am while being a single parent and going through chemotherapy and an expensive divorce. For as long as I remember, I’ve been helping my clients increase their revenue. Even when women came to me to improve their relationship with themselves, they also increased their self-worth and net worth. And that’s why I’m here — to help you close the gap between the two.

006: How Summer Break Devalues Women
Tuesday Sep 19, 2023
Tuesday Sep 19, 2023
In this podcast episode, we delve into the idyllic vision of summer that many of us grew up with, comparing it to the often more complex reality we experience today. We'll explore the historical origins of the summer break for children and how the world of education has evolved since then, prompting us to reconsider whether it's still a suitable model for today's families.
Join us as we discuss how changes in the way children learn and the demands of modern life impact parents. We'll also explore the idea that what's not working for children might not be working for parents either, and why it's becoming increasingly unrealistic for parents to have their kids at home for a full two months.
But it's not just about problems – I want to hear from you too! Share your thoughts and experiences on this topic, and let's consider the possibility of moving away from the traditional summer model to create a more balanced and fulfilling summer for everyone involved.
