What I'm up to in Chicago...


Well, hello there Reader!

Last week, I told you I was heading to Chicago to do some work repositioning my brand. I'm not ready yet to go into the specifics of what the repositioning looks like, but more is coming soon. If you're in the Rising Tide community you're ahead of the curve, and if you've been a backer for the reality show, you'll be seeing a BUNCH of behind-the-scenes footage from my trip in the coming weeks!

Today, though, before I hop on a plane for the Windy City I wanted to give you some back story on what led me to this moment of brand reinvention.

That's what my latest post is about.

I'm peeling back the curtain to show you:

  • the bigger picture of the whole trademark issue that became the rocket fuel for this new direction.
  • the "magic paintbrush exercise" I use with my clients that I'm using on MYSELF this time!
  • the negotiations that had to happen before RKA and I could work together (if you're thinking of hiring your biz besties, this is important!)

Yes, this is part of a behind-the-scenes series I'm launching on the blog. Check it out and tell me your thoughts!

Until next time,

- Lisa

P.S. Reminder: I’m speaking at The Online Income Playbook Summit, hosted by Amanda Boggs. I’ll be sharing how to design an offer that actually fits your energy and expertise (instead of chasing trends that don’t align). My talk is on the first day, so register now so that you don't miss it!

Heya Reader... Since I got home from my Chicago retreat, one thing became incredibly clear: Creative Freedom has run its course. I mean, I kind of already knew it before I went, but talking about the future of my work (and my life, to be frank), really solidified the decision for me. A decision I'd been circling for years, if I'm honest. For 10 years, across 8 seasons, the Creative Freedom Show was built to inspire and prepare creatives across the spectrum to have a business that works for...

Tomorrow's the day Reader! A couple of weeks ago, I told you I was heading to Chicago to do some work repositioning my brand. What I've been pretty tight-lipped about is what I'm shifting TO. Well, here's your first glimpse. Last month, I filed the trademark application for One Move That Matters™ - the approach I've been subconsciously using for decades to help clients get clarity on what's most important, make confident decisions, and take the courageous action that will move their business...

Where did February go Reader? I swear I sat down just a day or two ago to start writing, and here it is, less than a week from the end of the month. Funny how that happens. This month has been packed full of foundation-building and groundwork-laying. As I mentioned in my annual review, I've got some big moves I want to make, and that means preparing the way. Next week, I'm headed to Chicago to work with the uh-MAZE-ing Rachael Kay Albers (aka RKA) on some strategic planning and brand...
