I looked up and it was August, just like that. I don’t know where the time has gone or how quickly we got here, but it seems like I was just celebrating New Years, while setting a list of new goals to accomplish before the year was up. Luckily, I’ve crushed a lot of them…
It’s happened to me, so I’m certain you’ve experienced it too. You’re working a job for a company and you may enjoy it, you may not. You may have exceeded what your potential is at that company or in your position, or you may not feel like you’re getting what you’re worth. Where’s the appreciation…
I never built my site or brand around collecting email addresses because when I began The B Werd, I wanted a no-pressure platform where I wasn’t attempting to sell anyone anything or even use them for analytics. I wanted all of you all to be attracted genuinely to the content and information I was providing….
I’m always searching for women who inspire me, whether it be their progression created by a humble upbringing, their hunger to reach new heights or the discipline to do the things they said they’d do. Nicole Lynn has checked all of those boxes off. Outside of being a Sports Agent and Attorney, she wears many…
1) You Haven’t Started You’ve had this burning urge to do more but have yet to narrow down exactly what it is that you should be doing. You’ve been imagining the ideas that you have come to fruition month after month but haven’t taken the first step to get the ball rolling. What are you…
Financially, Christmas always seems to set me back. Even after receiving a well deserved bonus, the expensive gifts and dinner parties add up. That’s then followed by New Years that requires a fancy outfit and a case of pricey champagne, along with my birthday where I of course have to celebrate out of the country….
I’ve always been a pretty selfish individual, which isn’t easy to openly admit nor is it something I’m necessarily proud of; but it is indeed a fact. Admitting I care most about myself isn’t a characteristic that easily flows out of my mouth simply because selfishness is accompanied by so many negative stereotypes. I’m a…
I would imagine that any business professional would have a LinkedIn account that they’re active on, but the more conversations I started to have with other millennials about business networking, the more I realized I was wrong. Not only are people not on this social media platform built specifically for business, many of them who…
We recently wrapped up the first quarter of the year and it seems like January was just yesterday. The first three months of 2017 at my 9-5 consisted of over $200K in events including a ski trip, a huge Astros event, two crawfish boils, an open house and an economic forecast. On top of that,…
I was out of commission last week battling some migraines I had never before experienced, hence the lack of posts. I was unable to get anything done and for a workholic, you know that hurt me as bad as the migraine. I then spent all weekend talking entrepreneurship with a bunch of Baddies before being…
You’ve without a doubt seen McKenzie Renae’s fact and signature blonde curls come across your timeline, but I bet you didn’t know she was an Austin native who wanted to be a journalist or began building her brand seven years ago on Tumblr. Since becoming a beauty maven, she’s contributed to major sites such as…
One of the most frequent questions I get from you all is either how I grew my Instagram following or how I receive so much engagement with the amount of followers I do have and unfortunately, I don’t have an exact answer. Realistically, there are bloggers with so many more followers than me but don’t…
I talk about the blog and brand success I had in just a year more often than I’m sure you all would like to hear, but what I fail to highlight is 2016 was also a great year for me in my career. It was my second full-year being at my current company and I…
I’ve known this lovely lady for yearsssss. Honestly, she was the first woman that I knew who had a blog. Originally she owned Chan-Lo.com where I was actually a contributor and the reason behind why I can even use WordPress now. When I started this site, she was one of the first to congratulate me…
I spent all of last year capitalizing off of the opportunity to build a brand solely using technology. Connecting through a domain and social media sites allowed me to give everyone who inquired a better idea of who I am, what I do and what I believe in. I grew my views by thousands and…
