Last past Sunday, The San Diego Union-Tribune ran a story about how businesses are finding new ways to make their employees happy with working from home. In addition, the article also features a photo of yours truly at my office Downtown Works.

We might not all work together yet we work together here. Here's an excerpt from the article:

“When people feel socially connected at work, it has a large impact on our mood, our well-being, and our ability to cope with stress and burnout,” Kirmayer said. “When people are happier at work and more satisfied, it translates to better retention and fewer sick days.”

Fernandez said he’d like to see more companies offering coverage for mental health services for staffers, or paying for access to online therapists or meditation through apps like Headspace and Calm.

After all, there’s a lot more going on in the world than a loss of comfortable desk space.

Born to be wild until 9pm or so. 😂

❤️I'm usually winding down by 9pm and asleep before 10pm. Sleep gives me the ENERGY to wake up feeling refreshed and excited for the day. Now don't get me wrong these days I can stay up pretty late if I'm enjoying good company on a video call or hanging in the backyard by the firepit -- but I do daydream about laying down and having a good night's sleep.
💤My early bedtime allows me to get up with the sun. Being able to greet the sun during my morning walks puts me in a positive mind space for the day -- I feel more prepared, more present and confident I can handle anything thrown my way.

✨Regular and consistent sleep patterns make it easy to get up at the crack of dawn each day.

✨Mindfulness and meditation practices daily can also help you keep the positive momentum going.
What time do you wind down?

I am CERTIFIED!

Let me give you 4 reasons why I chose to become an AWeber certified expert!

#1 They care about their customers. When I signed up for a trial over a year ago, I got a personal email within 30 minutes that detailed some thoughts on my website and opened a conversation about Aweber products. Not automated either!! This got me intrigued to use their email marketing products over others.
#2 I've been using their products for over a year because they are simple and effective. They have a commitment to the people they serve and that's what truly bonds me to it.
#3 I was approached by Jena Bagley- Savvi Rep to become an Aweber Certified Expert via email, we chatted on the phone about life and business. It was a true chat with someone new and didn't feel forced. I am happy we got to connect at .


#4 My clients who attend trade shows & conferences have leveraged email automation to deliver value straight to their audience's inbox but also to reduce their carbon footprint.

Email automation can be scary and overwhelming... especially when you feel like there are too many options out there. But I assure you, it can be easy. Just message me and I'll give you a quick run through.

When I leave a comment on a post, you'll see that headline shows in comments and the first 40 characters show up. When I'm engaging and constantly active on this platform where my target clients are, you showcase your headline on other people's profiles by commenting or liking. If you've added keywords into your headline and you increase the chances of your profile being picked up as a top profile for the keywords you've used.

Your LinkedIn headline is prime marketing real estate - it appears everywhere your name does. A good headline can dramatically increase the number of views to your LinkedIn profile.

Assignment: Write 10 keywords that you want to be found for and add them to these sections of your LinkedIn profile.

This isn't going to be the first challenge we have to face this year.
From day-to-day business tasks to interactions we have in person and online, It's important to remain present in the moment. Being present in the moment allows your brain to make clear decisions without judgement and without fear of the unknown.

Luckily, I am comfortable working from home or working in an unfamiliar space (ie. The coffee shop. I've developed the comfort levels so I can work from anywhere.

If you need any tips on how to manage an unfamiliar work routine, I can help. Until then, let's continue to .

What are you creating today?

Dear fellow solopreneurs, inspired founders, and seasoned business professionals,

I understand you...even if you don't say it out loud.

Often times, we feel excited, encouraged and innovative.

Our feelings push us to continue doing the things we love.

We begin to create excitement and inspire others through our actions.

Our actions connect us to something bigger than ourselves.

Our actions attract people who believe in us, support us with every fiber of their being, and allow us to gain momentum.

However, there's another side to this momentum...when nothing seems to go the way we've imagined, our feelings take a turn....then our energy slowly drains and we put ourselves into loop of feeling discouraged and uninspired. More fear, more insecurity and eventually our confidence is shot.

I'm here to say that whatever you're feeling is okay. However, learn to recognize what helps you thrive....and take charge.

We are strong, brave, courageous, ambitious, and vulnerable all wrapped into one nice little package that's called being your own boss.

Our feelings can betray us but they don't have to hold us back. Recognize them, acknowledge them, and find a way to push forward.

So, I am curious...

How do you manage your feelings so you and those around you can do better, continue to be strong, and hold yourself accountable all at the same time?

Love,
Marisa
