[Video] The Biggest Mistake I’ve Made In My Business + Life | Business Inspiration from Leonie Dawson

Wow. We’ve all made mistakes, right? In our businesses, in our lives. This is such a great video from Leonie Dawson about a mistake she made. I know you’ll want to watch this, because I know you’ll get a lot out of it! I sure did!

BTW… My friend Leonie has created something that’s changing the lives and businesses of SO many women around the world in a way that’s never been seen before.

I think it’s so exciting + amazing what she’s put together – it’s just SO much more heart-centered, wildly generous + hugely affordable than ANYTHING that’s out there in the world.

The Amazing Biz and Life Academy gives you over $3800 (!!!!) of her business and marketing programs to create a powerful and profitable business, zen-your-mind meditations, creativity, spirituality, home and health e-courses to help you live your best life yet. It’s really the complete toolkit!

And it’s just SO crazy affordable – this woman has really set out to make it as doable for EVERY WOMAN who needs her work as possible.

PLUS, Leonie is a woman who really walks her talk – she’s managed to create a half million dollar a year company in a few hours a day that helps SO many people, and lets her really live her soul purpose. AND she’s a philanthropist – she donates to and supports a huge range of charities – she is even in the top 1% of Kiva lenders! She really is a goddess of abundance, creativity + joy!

I love how openly she teaches – if you know Leonie’s work, you’ll know she is SUCH an open book, so honest, vulnerable, heart-felt and true compared to so many other teachers out there!

There’s some pretty amazing success stories of women who’ve already received a HUGE amount of transformation in their lives and businesses from the Academy… go check them out and prepare to be inspired!!!

Find out more about this incredible Training & Mastermind for Amazing Women!

I’m just so in awe of what she’s created… and I know you’re going to really love it too!

[Video] Soul Secrets To Entreprenerarial Success – Part 2 | Inspired Action from Leonie Dawson

Do you invest in yourself? You are the most important person in your business and your life. Do you invest in yourself as a leader? You know, a really good company will help its employees (especially its leaders!) to get training so they can help that company stay really good and even get better than really good! Why wouldn’t you do that for your business? What is the most inspired action you can take to create your business to be the best and to take you where you want to go in life? Invest in yourself… invest in education, mentoring, business coaching.

Let me tell you a little secret. Even the biggest of the big-wigs in the biggest of the big companies invest in themselves regularly. They stay teachable. They seek out sources of knowledge to teach them things they don’t already know. They invest in mentors and coaches. Those guys know how valuable investing in themselves is.. do you?

Here’s the second in this special Sunday series of videos from Leonie Dawson. Invest in yourself… invest the few minutes it will take you to watch this video. Listen carefully to what she is saying… take inspired action in your life and business and become the greatness you know you are! Invest in yourself. Leonie is a great one to learn from… but there are a lot of other great ones to learn from. I love Leonie, and recommend her without reservation… but whatever you do… seek out a mentor or coach or teacher that resonates with you and go for it! Invest in yourself. You (and your business) deserve it!

Cool, huh? Yep. I think one of the best lessons I’ve ever learned is to remain teachable… to remain open to always learning something new! And then, to seek out teachers I resonate with so that I can take that inspired action of investing in myself. I’ve learned so much from Leonie and other teachers and mentors. I can tell you… I’ve never wasted a penny. As long as I saw it as an investment in myself and my business… every cent I’ve ever spent with my mentors and teachers has had huge returns!

And stay tuned next week for part 3 in this great series!

[Video] Soul Secrets To Entrepreneurial Success – Part 1 | Divine Inspiration from Leonie Dawson

We all need a little divine inspiration from time to time, right? Do you ever feel like you KNOW you’ve got what it takes to make a thriving business for yourself… but just don’t quite know why things aren’t working the way you know they can? Boy, I sure do, sometimes. You know how it goes… you have a passion (and everyone says the key to success is to follow your passion, right?), a burning desire to create this little piece of the world (your business) the way you envision it. So you work night and day, and try and try and try to make your dream a reality. But it seems like no one else even knows you exist! Yep. Sometimes that is exactly how I feel!

The thing is… when I feel like that, I seek out inspiration from people who are already living the dream I want to live. Don’t you think that’s the best way to find your way again when you feel lost? I sure do.

I want to share this great video series from one of my mentors… Leonie Dawson. I really think you’ll enjoy it… and hopefully you’ll get some divine inspiration from it, like I did!

Really good, right? One of the things she said in there that really resonated with me was, “I wanted the power and freedom for my family to make choices that were really happy and joyful for them.” That has been a big driving force for me, too… I have been trying to create a business that will help me have the power and freedom to make choices that will contribute to my, and my family’s overall happiness. I suspect that many of you reading/watching this feel the same way. Honestly… that is one of the big reasons I love Leonie! I feel like she really relates to me!

We’ll post the next 4 videos here over the next 4 weeks… I am deliberately posting these on Sunday… because Sunday is such a good day to relax and allow some divine inspiration into your life and heart!

If you don’t want to wait until next week to find out more from Leonie, please visit her website (click here)! You’ll love all the great stuff she has to offer there!
