These books are ones I have read and reread and regularly recommend to clients and colleagues. If you are truly ready to grow personally and professionally, these are great books to start with.
This book shifted my mindset from accepting what was handed to me, to understanding my value, how to make it known and receive the appropriate recognition and compensation for it

Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeown
This was my first understanding of how to increase success in all areas of my life by releasing what no longer serves me. I have returned to this book multiple times to refresh this concept and continue to apply its simple but impactful practices.

You Are a Badass at Making Money: Master the Mindset of Wealth by Jen Sincero
This was THE book that made the first major shift to my money scarcity mindset. Specific practices throughout helped me shift my relationship to money and improve my practices with it.

The only thing I wish was different about this book is that I had learned this money process system when I started my business so I had it in place from the beginning.

This book taught practical and easy to apply ways to shift from the hustle mode, into one with ease and abundance occurring at the same time.

These are some of my go-to items that increase productivity and reduce physical and mental strain. Some of these I have been using since I started this business in 2018.
This goes everywhere with me to increase my productivity on the road. The pull out shelf allows me to use my wireless mouse and I get so much more done than just using the trackpad on my laptop.
I love feeling comfortable when working at my computer, and that includes creating more ergonomic positions of my devices. Using the stand reduces neck pain and helps me to stay on task longer.
Noise Cancelling Wireless Headphones
These headphones help with staying on task and reducing distractions when working and holding calls. No more external noise to pull my focus away from what I’m currently working on.
The times I stand at my desk to work, I stand longer because of this mat that reduces fatigue on my feet and legs. Bonus is it has different ledges to rub your feet on and stretch your calves.
This is a great and cost effective tool to increase sound quality when you create videos and other content.
I upgraded to this microphone kit after 3 seasons on my podcast, and I wish I had started out with it. It’s very cost effective for the quality and I swear by this brand. My first microphone was made by the same

You don’t need much to start your business. But as you grow, creating systems to stay on top of things and allow for more growth becomes crucial. These are just some of the systems I use and can apply to different stages of your business journey.
Asana - Project Management Software
This software lets me stay on top of all areas of my business, communicate to team members with ease and access no matter where I am. Bonus is it has fun celebratory animations when I achieve tasks.
Christy Westerfeld of Coach Legally is the first and only lawyer I have gone to for all resources necessary to keep my business safe and compliant. She specializes in supporting online service based business and has different packages and services based on your needs. I have gotten my contracts, website page requirements and more from her.
Ivorey.io - All-In-One Business Software
If you offer online services or products, this can be a fantastic resource to keep all parts of your business in one place. I switched to them early 2025 and haven’t looked back. I’m able to track all prospective and current clients, while offering the different elements of my services plus this website, and more in Ivorey. Bonus is it’s run by a duo women team and I love supporting female owned businesses.
This is the podcast hosting platform I switched to, and it is also where I record, edit and produce my podcast now. There’s a reason they’ve been the go-to for podcasting software for so long now.

These products are ones I’ve returned to time and time again as staples in my daily life. It might seem trivial to focus on personal when building a business, but I will always advocate that your business is doing only as well as you are doing personally. So why not take time to enhance your personal well-being?
These have become a non-negotiable must in my daily life to reduce sensory overwhelm and not feel burnt out at the end of the day. I wish I had these as a dance teacher to help me stay my calm and best self. I use these even with my kids now, when I’m out and about and even if I’m just feeling tired. So many clients have tried and love them as well!
I have struggled with clear skin through my entire adult life and this product is the first time I have consistently healthier, happier and clearer skin. I also love their organic focus, simple design, and high quantity with the quality. Bonus, another women run business to support!
