The Secret Weapon That Helped My Business Skyrocket This Year
I'll give you a hint - it starts with a C and it's not ca$h.
Hola everyone!
In reflecting on all of the amazing things that have happened on my journey this year, I realized something very important.
None of this would be possible without all of you - my friends, family, fans, clients, industry colleagues - my comunidad. So first and foremost - thank you for being here and thank you for trusting me to be your hada madrina.
I have been blessed to meet some amazing people over the last few years and what started out as business relationships have become some of the nearest and dearest people in my life.
The people I can text in moments of overwhelm. The people I can call when I want to celebrate a win. The people I can email when I need feedback on a new service. And the people I can send way too many TikToks to in our WhatsApp Group.
I’ll admit and say that I wasn’t looking to build a collective of jefas - I have been blessed to meet these women by pure accident. And because of them, not only have they helped me overcome mindset shifts, but they’ve also been a huge reason why my business exploded over the last two years.
Because of them, I learned that collaboration fosters creativity - an essential element of growing a business that stands out. A business that people trust. A business with longevity.
The power of my community - THAT was my secret weapon this year.
This is why I’m launching THE CHANGEMAKER CONNECTIONS MASTERMIND.
The Changemaker Connections Mastermind is a 2-hour monthly mastermind session with up to 7 other entrepreneurs who will support you and hold you accountable.
For six months, we'll meet to create together, share resources, and be inspired by each other's unique perspectives. During this time you will learn to further connect with yourself, with customers, collaborators, and more.
The mastermind sessions will focus on developing business goals, sales strategy, partnerships, thought leadership and other areas of business growth through:
- Round table discussions
- Short workshop presentations
- Collaboration sprints
+ so much more.
And if you apply by December 31st, it’s $125 a month.
By joining this program, you’ll have access to me through these sessions and my office hours for more than 30% off of my hourly rate.
I cannot wait to see your application come in. Find all the details and application here.
Speaking of community - here’s an opportunity to meet IRL!
