Are You The Lady At Church? Let’s Apply The Becoming Bossminded Framework

In this episode of Your Loving Kick In the Pants, I shared two stories, one about a woman who gave up on her business, and another who was pitching the wrong way. Both reminded me how easy it is to lose focus in business. That’s why I created the Becoming Boss Minded framework, to help women move forward with clarity and purpose.

I walked through five steps: desire more, define the cost, find your edge, create your version of success, and take your seat. I shared real examples and announced my new book Becoming Boss Minded, coming May 22nd. If you’re ready to grow your business without losing what matters most, this one’s for you.

How the Boss Minded Framework compares to my Accountability Code

Step 1: Desire More – I asked, “What do I really want?”

Step 2: Define the Cost – I looked at what it takes vs. what it costs to stay stuck

Step 3: Find the Edge – I shared how I stretch past my comfort zone

Step 4: Create My Version of Success – I talked about how I define wins on my terms

Step 5: Take My Seat – I claimed my space and invited others to do the same

I announced the release of my new book Becoming Boss Minded and how to get early access

Hey friends, this episode is all about why I love using my voice on social media and this podcast. I started because I enjoy connecting, but today I had to vent a bit about all the cold, impersonal DMs I get from people trying to sell without even knowing me. Some are so bad, they don’t even know what state I live in!

In this episode, I talk about balancing authenticity and professionalism, especially when showing up on social media and in business. I share how I recorded this podcast without makeup or getting ready because it was more important to stay consistent than to look perfect. I want people to know it’s okay to show up as they are, and that trying to be perfect can often stop us from taking action. I also share a personal story from when I first started making YouTube videos and how being visible and real online helped me grow my business.

CHALLENGE TESTIMONIALS

Jessica

With just a 2 pound weight difference after 4 weeks, Jessica was estatic about her progress because look at the difference! She learned how to eat better, release stress, and gain confidence in not just her looks but her abilities too!

Erin

Having babies takes a toll on our bodies that’s for sure. With the Body Sculpting Challenge, you’ll learn how to properly engage your core with EVERY SINGLE EXERCISE you do. You’ll have a tighter, more toned core after just 4 weeks.

Jessica W.

Jessica surprised our whole community with her quick transformation. Due to health limitations she wasn’t able to exercise so she solely focused on her nutrition and guess what? She allowed herself to be the boss! She learned just how powerful our food is!

G. A.

A busy homeschooling mom of 6 exercised smarter, not harder (or longer or even everyday either). She followed my direction to exercise with a plan so her entire body could benefit. No more staring at a busy gym and wondering what to do!

Stephanie

Would you believe her "2017" picture was at 4 years post-partum with her 2nd baby and her “2019” picture was just 9 months post-partum with her 3rd baby? Steph is the perfect example of what a Fun and Sustainable lifestyle looks like. Learn the habit hacks that will work for you over and over no matter what life throws at you.

ME (Marci)

My own transformation has been mostly mental. Sadly I tried so many diets out there only to find that my mind was not in the right place so the physical results never really mattered. Once I learned how to really connect my mind and body I realized that living a fun and sustainable lifestyle trumps what you look like. You can love yourself NO MATTER WHAT!

Jessica

Each person holds their weight differently but no matter what you’ve been born with you can find a way to make your nutrition and movement work for you!

Liz

Nothing makes a transformation look more amazing than confidence! Abs don’t hurt but the coolest part about Liz’s story is that she’s able to keep up with her busy lifestyle as a teacher and mother. Not only does she handle it well she knows without a doubt how dang good she looks!
