I’ve been accused of stealing ideas before. It wasn’t fun.
14 years ago, someone I respected deeply came at me hard, claiming I’d stolen her idea. Her content.
It was scary. I consulted an attorney. I wanted to know what I was dealing with.
You wanna know what actually happened?
She was a brilliant thought leader teaching people how to do what she did. And I took her advice. Maybe I took her advice a little better than she took her own advice, but if it weren’t for how much I looked up to her and how she built what she did, I would never have learned.
And she spelled it right out. She taught it all, and I was a loyal community member following her marching orders.
I’ve never understood people who lose their ever-loving minds when someone steals their idea. There are no new ideas. None.
I hope you steal everything from me. I hope that every single time something I share inspires you, you act on it. Immediately.
I’m not in this game to be original. I’m in it to be helpful. I can’t be helpful if you don’t do the thing. So how can I possibly be mad when you do?
My clients. My community. My friends. My acquaintances. I tell them everything I know as fast as I can, so it helps them. It gives me purpose.
That’s why I’m taking it a step further and putting all my best coaching advice in The ROLE Model Community.
It’s free to join, and it's packed with ideas to help your business stand out (and actually make money at it, too).
I just hope you steal them and make them happen as soon as possible.
Welcome to The ROLE Model
My framework for building a personal brand that creates opportunities, income, and influence. It guides you to Reveal Your Focus, Optimize Your Energy, Lead the Movement, and Elevate Your Impact.
R — Reveal Your Focus
Every business has one.
The number you skip past when the bookkeeper sends the report. The one you round up when someone asks. The one that would change what you agreed to this month if you had to look at it every Sunday.
Look at it every Sunday.
You’ll hate it for two weeks. Then you’ll do something about it.
O — Optimize Your Energy
I’ve never sat down to film one video and gotten up feeling done for the week. If I film, I film four. Same for photos, same for writing.
Not because I love the work that much. Because setting up the light and getting the desk to look right on camera takes forty minutes before I’ve said a single word on tape.
If you’re only going to do it once, don’t do it.
The Inner Circle applications open shortly.
The Inner Circle is group coaching for ambitious women who are done collecting things they’re merely capable of and ready to expand their highest potential capacity. Applications open soon. Get on the waitlist to be first in.
L — Lead The Movement
You posted your best idea. Three people liked it. You never posted it again.
That was the mistake.
Repost it. Reframe it a different way. Turn it into a reel. The people who needed to see it weren’t scrolling the day you posted the first time.
Stop inventing new. Repeat what worked.
E — Elevate Your Impact
What have you talked yourself out of this year?
Write it down. Read it Monday morning. Then decide if you still agree with yourself.
Go after the life you want!

In episode 5 of Vlog Mom Summer, things took a bit of a turn. The family road trip didn’t exactly go as planned.
