Want to land MORE opportunities WITHOUT adding more pressure to grow your business online? If you’re nodding “YESSSSS” then this episode is for you.

LaShonda is truly a breath of fresh air in this online & digital creator space. Her approach is focused on BALANCE; working less & living more. And that’s def not something you hear too often from other full-time content creators lol

In this conversation, we pulled back the curtain on what it takes to create content on your OWN terms, whether that’s a full-time thing, like LaShonda, or creating content online for marketing purposes as a business owner.

We bounce around ideas between strategy & doing the outer work, while also tying that together with energetics & the inside work.

It’s truly a fantastic episode filled with different perspectives & the deeper layers of combining the online world, with the off-line world.

We hope you enjoy! ☺️
