The Heart Centered Entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. This year, I did something that might sound counterintuitive—I unscaled my business. After years of believing that group programs were the key to making more money in less time, I shifted back into 1:1 coaching… and had my biggest month and easiest launch yet. In this episode, I'm breaking down what I've learned after a decade in business: it's not the business model that creates freedom. I share what actually does. Because whether you're running groups, courses, 1:1, or done-for-you work, the real "code" to more income and less time isn't what most people are teaching. And once you see it, you can apply it to any model you choose. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. Last month, I had an experience with a doctor that completely threw me off—and honestly, it reminded me of something I didn't even realize I had forgotten. Over the past few years, I've intentionally built a life surrounded by high-integrity people: supportive clients, an incredible team, and a community that feels expansive and aligned. So when I encountered someone who felt draining and misaligned, it shook me—and brought up old patterns of self-blame and questioning my worth. In this episode, I'm sharing the powerful reminder that came from that experience: it is safe to let go of what no longer serves you. You don't have to sugarcoat what feels hard or misaligned. You're allowed to call it what it is, release it, and trust that better things are ahead. Your next level—more ease, more income, more spaciousness—requires you to make room for it. And that starts with letting go. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. Last month, I crossed a new income ceiling—bringing in over $70K in just a little over a month—and it was the easiest launch I've ever had. Which, honestly, is both exciting and a little maddening. Because the truth is, the more ease and alignment I've felt in my business, the more success seems to follow… and I know how frustrating that can feel when you're not there yet. At the same time, behind the scenes, I was navigating some unexpected health challenges that forced me to slow down in a way I couldn't ignore. "Slow" has been my word of the year—and this month really asked me to become the version of myself who could actually live it. In this episode, I'm sharing the surprising connection I noticed between panic and stillness, and how I'm learning to step into a deeper, more intentional kind of quiet… one that feels safe, grounded, and expansive instead of frozen. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. Today I paid the highest tax bill I've ever paid—and I did it with so much gratitude. Not just because it reflects my biggest cash quarter to date, but because of how it happened. I paid it early. I didn't scramble. I didn't stress. My team handled it after my bookkeeper calmly calculated what was owed. And in that moment, I realized just how different making more money actually feels. Because here's what I wish I had known earlier: making more money doesn't make things harder—it makes them easier. When you're in inconsistent $5–8k months doing everything on your own, it feels like more clients would equal more pressure, more burnout, and less freedom. But the opposite can be true. With the right support and systems, more revenue can mean more ease, more regulation, and more stability. And yes, there's a messy middle—but it's one worth moving through. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. I used to be the person who rolled my eyes at coaches posting designer purses and "look how much I made" moments online. In fact, I literally posted on social media calling it out as everything wrong with the coaching industry. And yet… here I am, celebrating a recent launch and buying a purse for an upcoming trip to Spain. Life has a funny way of humbling you. In this episode, I'm unpacking what actually changed—and what didn't. Because it was never really about the purse. It was about the energy behind it. The lack of integrity, the performative marketing, and the disconnect from real coaching. So today, I'm sharing the mindset shifts and reminders that helped me build and scale my coaching business in a way that feels aligned, ethical, and genuinely abundant. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. I had a moment of self-doubt recently—one of those quiet, vulnerable ones that creeps in when you're trying to grow something meaningful. And instead of spiraling, I opened a photo on my computer that instantly grounded me: a police officer who once helped me through a really hard moment. That experience stayed with me—not because of who he was, but because of how safe and supported I felt. It changed the way I see trust, especially when it comes to letting people in. In this episode, I'm sharing a powerful mindset practice I use called "the wise room," and why learning to trust others is one of the most important (and overlooked) skills when growing your business. If you want to scale without burning out, this is the work. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. During one of the hardest seasons of my life, I found unexpected support in a simple place: a local gym with childcare. That hour became my outlet—my space to process, release, and move through everything I was carrying. The strength I built during that time wasn't just physical; it was fueled by survival, by anger, by the deep need to reclaim something for myself. And while someone later complimented my abs, I realized they were built in a chapter I wouldn't wish to relive. In this episode, I'm sharing a more honest conversation about using anger and rage as fuel—especially when you're in a difficult situation—and how that can be powerful. But I also talk about the next phase: what it looks like to step out of survival mode and into peace. Because growth doesn't always have to come from chaos. Sometimes the real work is allowing things to feel easy, safe, and good—and trusting that this can be your new normal. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. Recently, I had a realization during a client call that made me laugh, because it reminded me that we are all the SAME girls. I noticed that when life gets busy (especially during times like launches) I tend to initiate other big changes at the exact same time. A client shared she had just signed up for a new hobby she's excited about in the middle of a big launch… meanwhile, during my last launch, I decided it was the perfect time to get back on dating apps and go on several dates.  It got me thinking about how, when one area of life starts shifting, it often gives us the courage to change other things too. I tend to resist change as a person, but once I'm already in a season of growth and discomfort, part of me thinks… well, we're already here so let's keep going. In this episode, I share why momentum builds momentum, and how seasons of change can actually become important moments of alchemy in both life and business. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. What if you treated money like a real commitment this year? In this episode, I invite you to play a simple game with me: truth or dare. And the dare is this-  devote yourself to money. Not from greed or hustle culture, but from a place of courage, alignment, and heart centered leadership. Too many women are taught that wanting money makes them less generous or less caring, when in reality, the opposite is often true. When heart centered women build wealth, they create more stability, freedom, and impact. In this episode, I share why prioritizing revenue in your business can actually make your work feel more supported and sustainable, how scaling often becomes easier over time, and why financial self-care might be one of the most powerful forms of self-care available to women. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. Recently, I transferred $10,000 from my freedom fund to pay for flights, language school, and an Airbnb for a month abroad. Two days later, a $9,500 tax refund landed in my account. I wasn't surprised. Over and over, the universe has shown me that my savings ( what I call my Freedom Fund) is safe to use. And when I use it with intention, more comes. In this episode, I'm sharing the belief that changed my relationship with money forever: it's safe to spend your money. During my divorce, I was still saving for "a rainy day," until I realized I was already living in it. I had to learn that money is meant to support me, not sit untouched while I struggle. So many heart-centered women know how to save. But we grip tightly. We hesitate to spend. We restrict the very flow we say we want. When you mindfully spend, when you open your hands,  money moves. And movement creates more movement. This episode is an invitation to release constriction, use the pretty dishes, and let your money breathe. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. Lately, I've been feeling a little "behind" in business. Not behind in a dramatic way, just not as far ahead as I'm used to being. Between the heaviness in the world and some personal challenges my family has been navigating, I've had to adjust my schedule, work a few late-night sessions, and give myself permission to not always be 57 steps ahead. In this episode, I'm sharing two powerful lessons I learned after spending over $11,000 and 100+ hours on a personal legal situation last year. Work that only just now paid off emotionally and practically. It reminded me that in business (and life), results are almost always delayed. We live in a world wired for instant gratification, but the most meaningful wins like $100K years, paid-off debt, buying homes, stable peace… often take months or years to fully land. I also talk about something we don't say out loud enough: how we can be deeply grateful our business supports us through hard seasons… and still wish we didn't have to spend our time and money navigating those hard things in the first place. Tune in for an honest conversation about delayed gratification, ambition, resilience, patriarchy, and gratitude. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. In this episode, I'm sharing something that completely changed how I experience selling and making money each month: realizing I actually get to choose! For a long time, I thought I needed to find the perfect strategy and stick to it forever. The "set it and forget it" model. But our lives change. Our capacity shifts. The market evolves. When I started allowing myself to adapt how I sell, instead of forcing myself into one rigid approach, everything got lighter, easier, and more aligned. This episode will go into 6 areas of money making that you have a choice on, so you can pick the thing that's calling to you to make money this month while it feels free. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

I talk about the biggest messaging and marketing myths I see heart-centered business owners get stuck in, and the truths that actually lead to clarity, consistency, and sales without burnout. This conversation is for you if you want a message you can continue to use for years, not weeks. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. For making over $1MIL+ cash in my business, I sometimes surprise myself when the most basic lessons return. This week's episode was inspired by something that happened at home. My daughter joining Girl Scouts and selling cookies. I noticed myself taking over the project, carrying the pressure, and stressing about the outcome… until I realized I was missing the entire point. That realization opened up a big reminder about overefforting. We do it a lot as heart centered women in business because we CARE. But often, we're actually blocking growth, ease, and sustainable money. In this episode, I break down where overefforting shows up in sales, marketing, and client care, and how to step back in a way that creates more results, not less. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. This episode is a little different, and honestly, I don't think I've ever shared something like this before. Six women inside my Get and Coach Your First Client community gave me permission to share the recording of a real, live group coaching call with you. You'll hear the exact questions they're asking as they sign clients and grow their coaching businesses, and how I coach them in real time. I edited out the personal parts they requested, and I'm so grateful for how generous they were in allowing this behind-the-scenes look. If you've ever wondered what it's like to be coached by me inside the 90 Day Intensive to sign clients, this episode gives you a very real feel for the experience - the coaching, the community, and the support that makes it so effective. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

In this episode, I share the three core values we've been talking about at home and how they directly apply to your business, especially for things like your sales, marketing, and visibility. So many entrepreneurs struggle to make money with ease because they've drifted away from their heart-centered values. In this episode, I walk you through each value and challenge you to choose one small, tangible action you can try this week to embody them more fully. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

But alongside that business shift, I've also been making personal changes that reflect where I believe the next decade is headed. In this episode, I talk about slowing down, adapting in a world of AI and constant noise, and why protecting your creative edge is essential if you want your business to last. I'm sharing what I've changed, what I'm noticing, and why I truly believe stillness, mindfulness, and slowing down are strategic. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. About four times a year, I get that sinking feeling that my IG just isn't very aesthetic, and I worry about what other people (not potential clients) think about me. That I look weird on video, that I ramble, that my captions aren't perfect. But I always come back to this: it's okay that my marketing is imperfect. Who I am in real life is better than my marketing, and I am more complex and full of life and kind than photos and texts can show. I am way better at coaching/caring for people and getting them results, than I am at marketing. And honestly, as a heart-centered entrepreneur, that's exactly how it should be.  In this episode, I share about why your marketing doesn't have to be aesthetic to be effective - especially as heart centered entrepreneurs. The more we can release attachment to our marketing and how "perfect" it is and what others think of it, the more we can put out. And even if it just reflects 60% of your amazingness, that is plenty to sign aligned clients. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

In this episode, I'm exploring what it really means to release guilt and shame around the old chapters we might consider "failures" - the businesses, investments, and relationships that didn't work out. I talk about the difference between reflecting and self-judgment, and how carrying shame from an old season can quietly shape the results we create today. This conversation is about bringing forward the lessons we've learned along the way, honoring the past version of ourselves who were truly doing the bravest they could, and learning how to bring the lessons forward without dragging the guilt along with them. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. In this episode, I'm sharing 3 non-sales skills (that you already have!) that will help you make a lot of money when you tap in... And the first one, of course? Presence and listening. When you find it, it feels like a magical flow and makes you lots of money, but it can be hard to access!  Yes, it's important to spend about 20% of your energy planning for the future (I love doing this with my clients, helping them make strategic plans), and yes, 20% reflect on the data and the past. But 60%+ of our energy should be in the present if we want to make easy money in 2026.  Remember, the money is in the present, and the money is in the listening. Consider this episode your money-flowing pep talk. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. At the start of my business, I actually Googled, "How do I get clients without selling?"...  Anything but having to be icky and cold DMing people. Or making them feel small in order to get them to buy. I felt a shrinking, a contraction, a nervousness.  Then I had an ah-ha moment. What if instead of 'selling' I could just 'invite' people in a kind, clear, direct, pressure-free way to my programs? What if it could feel light and easy and generous? And then it really did start to feel that way.  In this episode, I'm sharing 7 EXACT reframes that changed how I felt about getting clients, and my clients use these NEW WORDS to this day (I even hear them circulating online sometimes!). It may sound wild, but our words matter and can totally change how we take action and make lasting money in our business.  You can use these reframes to shift how you approach selling, too. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. In this episode, I'm exploring how feeling secure—financially, emotionally, and energetically—is actually one of the most powerful business strategies you can use. We're told to do what "works," invest everything, and push through discomfort. But for heart-centered entrepreneurs, we need to take a different approach.  I share my own story about wanting to wait for the "perfect financial time" to buy a home (and why I'm so glad I didn't), plus a story from Suzie Orman that illustrates the importance of investing and defining security on your own terms. This episode is all about creating your safety bubble and feeling secure as a way to tap into more abundance, freedom, and income. Because when you feel secure, you show up differently, and make LASTING money. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. In this week's episode, I'm sharing about a recent dating experience that left me feeling embarrassed, and what it reminded me about business, rejection, and why showing up with your whole heart is still the bravest thing you can do. It takes vulnerability to be visible in love, business, or life. I find that MANY women who are successful at most things in life struggle with the reality that in business, there are SO MANY MORE chances for micro-failures.  Putting your heart out there online is nothing to be embarrassed about. It's something to be proud of. So few women do it. It's scary to get visible. To be seen. To risk connection. But it's the only way to live fully as a heart centered woman. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

And really, I used to say it too.  But here's the truth: money is a beautiful, powerful tool in the hands of heart-centered women. It's okay to desire money to fuel your dreams and desires. ❤️ In this episode, I'm sharing 3 of my favorite money mindset shifts from my book. And honestly, if you take just one of these and lean into it even 10% more, I'm convinced it will make a big difference this quarter, not just in the money you make but in the amount of time/hustle/effort you are putting into making the money. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. Growing up, I often took the approach of don't expect the good to happen, because that way if it doesn't, you won't be disappointed. But that model came crashing down when I left corporate and landed in entrepreneurship. As a business owner, you ALMOST ALWAYS are not meeting your goals because… Big goals = Big action. And big goals get you MUCH further than small goals that keep you stuck in the mediocre. In this episode, I'm sharing why business is really a series of "micro-failures," and why that's NOT a bad thing. I also dive into my process for how I help my clients face their fears, make a plan for the real ones, and release the rest — so they can step into their next level of income and success. Because fear might feel like control, but really it just keeps us stuck and small. And I'm not letting you stay in fear anymore. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

This is different than white space because white space means we are doing absolutely nothing. And in my book, that literally never happens for women, and it also terrifies us to be completely still and quiet. 😆  Gold space is about reclaiming time, energy, and margin in ways that bring peace back into your week. Part of it may be prioritizing things you are already doing. Some of it is finding pockets of time for YOU. In this episode, I'm breaking down what gold space looks like in real life, why it matters for your income, and how you can start making room for it — even in small doses. Because here's the truth: gold space makes you money. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

True story: I sit down to write my launch emails… and suddenly I'm ordering safety patrol shorts for my son, tearing up at baby photos in Google, and realizing my client got totally sidetracked by IG reels. 😅 Being a business owner can feel heavy - between the money stress, inboxes, and to-do lists that follow you into dinner and bedtime. But here's the thing: while entrepreneurship carries a lot of responsibility, it also carries huge rewards. And not everyone is brave enough to take that on, but you are. In this episode, I'm sharing 7 of my favorite hacks to feel more mentally free in your six-figure business. These are the shifts that let me make the most of my 3-day work weeks.

ChatGPT offers unconditional positive feedback, and it always makes you feel like you're right. Plus, it responds instantly, no awkward pauses with your own thoughts. But here's the thing, they can actually be a negative too. Part of JOURNALING on where you are stuck or challenged or inspired is being able to challenge your thinking and be able to sit in the quiet and reflect on your thoughts! So, I've recommitted to doing my reflection on a blank Google Doc first, then pasting specific sections into ChatGPT. This episode dives into the ways I think ChatGPT is good and NOT good to use as entrepreneurs. It's a convo on how to use it to TRULY HELP us and not sabotage us - in our intuition, our voice, and our business long term as we make money. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

In this week's episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of a real coaching call with my amazing client Christina, who's growing her business and getting ready to make her next hire. This episode will help you navigate the mindset, strategy, and trust it takes to build a team that works for your business and life.  Growing your team isn't always easy, but it's so important, because you can't build a sustainable 3 days a week, six-figure biz WITHOUT support.   If you're in the season of making your first (or next) hire, this episode will make it easier. Tune in to hear me coach Christina, I know it will help you too! –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

One of my biggest secrets to getting my clients a lot of results, and having MY business continually growing on a 3 day work week...  Is having a LIFE outside my business that INSPIRES me to work only 3ish days a week.  Traveling with my kids, dancing 5+ hours a week, doing pilates...  I remember a time when it felt impossible to make time for things outside of work and motherhood. Today, Marissa and I are having a conversation about smashing the patriarchy one 5 minute block at a time. Every time you take up space. Every time you prioritize your mental and physical health.  Marissa is one of the best cycling coaches in the world. She helps women say yes to adventure later in life, and see what it looks like to have ENERGY and HEALTH after 40 when we are experiencing perimenopause.  You're going to love Marissa, her story and her passion. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. San Diego had a massive and amazing turnout to the 'No Kings' protests - I am so proud of my city. We are in uncertain times for sure, politically and economically. And in this episode, I'm sharing some real talk about how to make it through and make money in hard times. Here's what I know to be true… Even in a "bad" economy, the hardest days in my business are still better than the "best" days I had working a traditional 9–5. I share about the importance of designing your business and life to operate so that your baseline income works in any economy. I also talk about how to GROW AND THRIVE in this economy if you want to match your results from before. Plus, a tiny gratitude practice you can do for your business. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. Pretend I'm your next potential client, ready to pay in full for your $5K offer. What would I want from you? This episode was inspired by a recent hire I made and taking 10+ sales calls in a short span. It reminded me what actually matters when someone's deciding to work with you—and it's probably not what you think. I'm sharing a note I created from the perspective of your future client. Things like: I want you to believe in me even when I don't. I want to be challenged. I want to be respected and treated with kindness and grace. I want you to be secure. I want you to be confident. I want you to be a leader I can look up to. We'll dive into the BIGGEST things you can embody on a call (spoiler alert: you're natural at them!!) to close more sales faster and to attract more sales calls too. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. Ever feel totally scattered trying to show up for everything—from marketing to delivery, from your family to your clients, from selling to serving? In this episode, I'm diving into something I see all the time with heart centered entrepreneurs (and feel myself too): constant context switching. That back-and-forth between life and business, between action and planning, between serving and showing up… it's exhausting. And it's the hidden reason so many capable business owners are stuck, spinning, or secretly thinking about quitting. If you've been feeling overwhelmed or stretched thin, this conversation will help you create more flow, ease, and alignment in how you work, so you can make more income this summer without burning out. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. In this episode, I share a personal story about saying yes to a kid's field trip—and the reminder I got when they said, "Mom, I'm sad you couldn't make the last one." Whether you're working a 9–5, no job, full-time biz, or part-time biz, you can't do it ALL, all the time without burning out. I dive into why pretending you should be able to do everything is exhausting, why boundaries around your work hours are essential, and how respecting those boundaries gives you the actual freedom to unplug and enjoy life. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. What happens when someone doesn't show up to my sales call? I recorded this podcast—with my sweet daughter on my lap instead. It might sound wild, but no-shows don't bug me at all. And in this episode, I'm sharing exactly why. This mindset is 100% the reason why I'm able to make money year-round, while building a sustainable heart centered business, and feeling REALLY GOOD about it.  This is also the mindset that keeps so many women stuck in corporate making $75K a year feeling "good", when they could be making $300K with half the effort—if they can just tolerate this one shift I'm going to talk about today. It's a deep conversation, so buckle your seatbelt and get ready for a breakthrough. And don't miss the fairytale my daughter and I tell at the end. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Visit today's blog post here. In this episode, I'm sharing the two most important things you need to say after you listen to your potential client's challenges on a sales call if you want it to convert into actual cash. I'm breaking down what to say (and what not to assume) to confidently close more sales with aligned clients. Plus, I share a wild story about a sales experience I had recently that reminded me exactly what not to do. This episode is super important for heart centered entrepreneurs- especially if you've been guilting yourself around visibility or struggling to convert warm leads.  Sales is the #1 SKILL that heart centered women need to LEARN AND MASTER. And it's the one that has served me the MOST in business- because it means I don't have to rely on someone else to sell or market for me. I know how to do it in a way that feels aligned and genuine. Whether you're newer to sales or just ready to start closing more of your warm leads, this episode will shift how you show up on calls—with confidence, clarity, and heart. ❤️ –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur
