I have to give major props to Jennifer from Pink Foundation and
Single Mom Sage for adding me to her book club in July. It was a book that not only changed the way I thought about my blogging business but my Curvy Momager brand overall. It provided me with not only foresight but got me energized to start a major part of my brand that I've been putting off for over a year.
The book is Boss Women Pray by Kachelle Kelly. You can order directly from her
website or download on
Amazon, which is what I did. Each day Kachelle has offered a prayer and an inspiration writing on a topic pertaining to growing your business from a spiritual perspective. At the end of each inspiration there are also biblical references to help provide more justification for the readings.
One of my favorite days was Day 26
Prayer for Effective Marketing & Massive Exposure. A part of the prayer reads:
"I sometimes get discourage when it seems I will never have the chance to share my passion on a larger scale. But then I remember that You are on my side and that You cause all things to happen in perfect timing."
What an amazing reminder of how we are not in control and God is! Then one of the biblical references for that day was 1 Corinthians 2:9:
Get this book! I can not tell you how excited I was to be invited to this book club. You can even have one yourself. Invite women that are on a journey in business or thinking about opening a business and join in on some conversation after each day. You can even do it on social media or via text! It will really help you #activateyourhustle.
Even if you weren't taught about money as a child, as many of us aren't it's never to late. I say that especially to my single moms like me that are trying to figure out how everything is going to get done. As Patrice says, "everything can be budgeted for". This part really struck me because I'm always making excuses for why I don't have enough for this or for that because this or that emergency came up when I knew all along it was going to happen. That small piece of advice I gained from reading the book has helped me refocus and think how I can make changes for future financial success. So thanks to Patrice I made a major decision to downsize for a little while so that life's little (well-known) emergencies can be handled and I can still pay the bills!
