A client came to me a little while ago with an email list she'd been collecting for years.
Hundreds of people who already knew her. Already liked her work.
Just… not hearing from her.
Every few months she'd think about sending something out.
And then life got in the way.
So it sat there.
Until we sorted it out together.
Built her a simple newsletter template she can actually reuse every month. Got her email provider set up properly. Imported her list.
Start to finish — done.
She didn't need more marketing.
She just needed someone to help her use what she already had.
If your email list has been sitting there doing the same thing — this is exactly what the May promotion covers.
Newsletter setup, template, everything in place so you can actually use it.
🔷Promotional rate is $750 — regular price is $1,200. Offer ends May 31.
👉 Send me a DM if you'd like to get it sorted before the month ends.

You know what you want your marketing to look like.
The vision is there — it's been there for a while.
It's everything else that gets in the way.
The time. The tech. Not knowing which platforms you actually need. Whether a funnel makes sense. How to make it all connect so it actually works together.
So it stays in your head.
➡️ I have two spots open for June — and this is exactly what they're for.
Your Marketing Review and Roadmap looks at everything you have in place, figures out what's missing and what's not connected, and gives you a clear simple plan for what to do next.
Built around your business. Your time. Your goals.
And the gap between what your marketing could be and what it actually is?
That's what we close together.

Be honest with yourself for a second.
When was the last time your marketing actually felt organized?
If you're running a small business and the honest answer is "I'm not sure" — that's okay. It's also exactly where I come in.
I take a look at everything — your social media, your email, your website, your branding — figure out what's working and what isn't, and put a simple clear plan together that actually fits your life.
No overwhelm. No fluff. Just clarity.
I have two spots open for June and a newsletter promotional rate available through May 31.
👉 Send me a DM — let's talk about your business.

New on Substack today, my article "How Is This Authentic?" Well, let me tell you a bit about how that story came to be.
I was on a Zoom recently — a free AI workshop for small business owners about how to use it so your business essentially runs in the background while you get on with everything else. 400 people in the room, the chat was flying, the energy was charged. And I was sitting there with this quiet feeling in my body that I just couldn't put my finger on.
So I typed one question into the chat.
How is this authentic?
Silence. No one answered.
And as I sat with that silence, the question turned back on me — because I use AI too, so who am I to ask? What I've come to is that it's not about the tool. It's about what you bring to it. It's about whether your soul is in it.
I wasn't quite sure I was going to publish this. Because I genuinely don't know if other people are sitting with this same quiet unease — whether you're using AI in your business, your content, your everyday life — are you feeling it too? Or is it just me?
Link in comments — I'd really love to know where you land on this.

Today it begins! I’m starting to share something I’ve been working on behind the scenes — taking one piece of the Marketing Starts Here strategy I build for clients and making it available on its own.
Do you, as a small business owner, have an email list that’s been collecting dust… just not being used?
I see it all the time.

Emails get collected here and there — at checkout, on a website, through conversations… maybe something gets sent once or twice…
and then it just kind of stops.

Not because you don’t want to use it.
It’s usually because there’s no real system behind it.
No clear plan for what to send, or how to send it.

And when you’re already busy running your business… it gets pushed to the side.
But those are people who already know you.

And right now — they’re not hearing from you.

I’ve been setting this up for a few clients lately, and it made me realize how often this one piece is missing.
Not more marketing.
Not more content.

Just… a simple system that actually works.

So that’s what this is.

I’ll set you up with a newsletter template that fits your brand, a structure you can reuse each month, and a way to actually use the email list you already have — without overthinking it every time.

Nothing complicated. Just something you can keep up with.

👉 I’ve opened up a few spots at $750 (regular $1,200) as I roll this out.
From there, you’ve got options:
– do it yourself using the system
– done-with-you support if you want guidance each month
– done-for-you if you’d rather hand it off

If this has been sitting in the background for a while, feel free to reach out.
You can call or text me at 519-301-6771, or send me a DM — I’m always happy to talk it through first.

🔷 Marketing doesn’t need to feel forced.

The kind that works most of the time is simple —
one human talking to another.

When things feel unclear, it’s usually because there’s no real plan behind it.

That’s what I help you build 💜

🔷 You’ll hear a lot about B2B and B2C…
but the marketing that actually works most of the time is simpler than that.
It’s just H2H.
Human to human.

Not trying to sound perfect.
Not trying to say the “right” thing.
Not trying to follow a script.

Just one person talking to another
in a way that actually makes sense —
and actually feels authentic.

A lot of small business marketing starts to feel forced…because you’re trying to do it the “right” way instead of your way.

That’s usually when things get complicated and inconsistent.

A big part of how I see this comes from my work as an intuitive energy healer.
I naturally pay attention to what feels off,
what feels forced,
and what doesn’t feel authentic —
and that shows up in how I approach marketing too.

When your marketing is clear,
and you have a simple plan behind it,
it becomes a lot easier to show up in a way that feels natural.

That’s what I help you build.

👉 If your marketing has been feeling forced or unclear,
you can send me a DM with the word “PLAN” 💜

🔷A lot of small business owners know they need to be doing more with their marketing…but when they actually sit down to work on it, it’s not always clear what to do.
What should I be focusing on?
What actually matters right now?
Where do I even start?
So things get started…
and then stop again.
Not because you don’t care.
It just doesn’t feel clear enough to keep going.
That’s the point where I usually come in.
Through Marketing Starts Here, I work with you to step back and look at your business as a whole — not just your social media.
Together, we create a clear marketing strategy and plan so you know:
• what to focus on
• what to do first
• how everything fits together
From there, we build out the pieces that support that plan — your website, your email marketing, your content, and your social media — so everything is working in the same direction.
This isn’t about doing more.
It’s about having a simple plan and structure you can actually follow.
Some people want guidance so they can implement it themselves.
Others want support along the way.
Both work.
👉 If your marketing has been feeling scattered or unclear, you’re welcome to message me and we can talk it through.

If you’ve ever found yourself thinking…
“How am I supposed to do all of this?”
You’re not alone.
Most small business owners are busy running their business, trying to make money, and keeping up with everything that needs to get done.
____________
So when it comes to marketing, it becomes one more thing on the list.
You do what feels easiest…
or what you already know how to do.
And in the background, there are all these thoughts:
“I should be posting more.”
“Maybe I need to send emails.”
“I should be doing something…”
And at the same time, it feels like you might be missing opportunities —
if you just had more time, or knew what to focus on.
______________
But without a clear plan, it all starts to feel overwhelming.
So you overthink it…
put it off…
and come back to it later.
And the cycle repeats.
_____________
It’s not about doing more.
It’s about knowing what actually matters for your business.
👉 If this feels familiar, you don’t have to keep trying to figure it out on your own — send me a message.

If you’ve ever sat down to work on your marketing and thought…
“Where do I even start?”
You’re not alone.
For most business owners, it doesn’t stop there.
➜ It usually goes something like this…
You think:
“I should work on my marketing.”
You sit down, open your laptop…
“Okay… where do I start?”
Then almost immediately:
“What should I even be doing right now?”
And it builds…
What should I be focusing on?
Do I need a plan first?
Am I even doing the right things?
When was the last time I posted?
Then the doubt creeps in…
Is any of this even making a difference?
Am I wasting time on the wrong things?
So you pull back.
“I don’t have time for this right now.”
“I’ll come back to it later.”
And then time passes…
Until it turns into:
“I really should be doing more…”
And the cycle repeats.
_____________________
Over time, this starts to cost you.
Not just in your marketing…
but in how often you’re showing up
and the opportunities that never turn into anything.
Because it’s not that your business isn’t good.
It’s that your marketing isn’t clear enough to support it.
_____________________
When you get clear on what actually matters
and where your time should go…
things start to move forward.
That’s the work I do.
Looking at your business as a whole
and creating a strategy that actually fits.
➡️ If you’re ready to get out of that cycle, send me a message.
