No Woman is an Island.
Here are the people and resources that have helped me on my path.
People:
Diane Whiddon:
Diane was a referral - which is my preferred way of finding people. And can I say, she is GOLD!!! This gorgeous website and logo are her design.
And she is the queen of under-promise and over-deliver! Setting realistic completion dates, she always came in early. She also is so responsive - I've never experienced such great customer service.
And she really seemed to “get” me. I swear she could read my mind and deliver what I didn't even know I wanted. I had set aside a substantial budget for my website - and let’s just say - I didn’t need it all.
You can check out her portfolio here or email her directly.

Books:
10x is Easier than 2x:
by Dr. Jonathan Hardy and Dan Sullivan, a renowned coach for successful entrepreneurs
This book emphasizes that achieving 10X growth is surprisingly easier than aiming for 2X growth. This concept revolves around enhancing four key freedoms: time, money, relationships, and purpose.
By making your time more valuable, you naturally increase your earnings and satisfaction. This financial growth, in turn, facilitates easier access to resources and connections with like-minded, freedom-focused individuals. As your network expands, your professional and personal relationships deepen, leading to more impactful and fulfilling engagements.
This holistic improvement across all life facets results in a life that is not just quantitatively larger, but qualitatively richer, creating a lasting, positive impact on yourself and others. Thus, 10X growth is about maximizing the quality of your freedoms, which in turn magnifies the outcomes you achieve.
Who Not How
Ever felt buzzing with a new idea or goal but strapped for time to dive into it, or found yourself stuck in the procrastination loop despite a burning desire to achieve something?
Imagine a world where accomplishing your goals didn't solely rest on your shoulders. Dan Sullivan, an expert coach, introduces a game-changing perspective: instead of asking "How can I do this?" we should be asking "Who can do this for me?"
This simple yet profound shift can unlock unparalleled ease and success. Sullivan's approach isn't just about easing your workload; it's about expanding your potential far beyond individual capabilities.
By embracing this mindset, you're not just freeing up thousands of hours; you're stepping into a realm where your ambitions know no bounds, where building successful businesses, enhancing personal freedom, and living a life dictated by your choices becomes your new reality.
The Go-Giver and Go-Givers Sell More
by Bob Burg and David Mann
These two books revolve around the concept of value-based giving in personal and professional life.
The Go-Giver is a parable that illustrates the power of giving. It presents the story of a young professional, Joe, who learns that true success comes not from focusing on oneself but by putting others' interests first. The book emphasizes five key laws of stratospheric success: the Laws of Value, Compensation, Influence, Authenticity, and Receptivity. These principles teach that success is not about getting but giving, meaning the more you give, the more you receive in return.
Go-Givers Sell More extends the principles from "The Go-Giver" into the sales domain. It argues that the most successful salespeople don't try to "get" sales; instead, they focus on giving—providing value to their clients. The book rejects traditional sales tactics and instead focuses on building relationships, offering exceptional value, touching people's lives, and putting customers' needs first. The core message is that your influence is determined by how abundantly you place other people's interests first.
Both books suggest that in business and life, the key to success and fulfillment lies not in a self-centric approach but in a giving-centric approach. By focusing on adding value and serving others, success and satisfaction follow naturally.
