I get asked all the time what I use to run my business, what I'm reading, and what's helped me most along the way. Some of these are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission if you purchase through them. I only recommend things I genuinely use, love, or believe in.

Free Things that Keep me Grounded
This program completely rewired how I think about decision-making in my business. It's less about what to do and more about learning to notice what's happening in your body when you're about to raise your rates, say no to a client, or publish something vulnerable. I took it two years ago and it's still shaping how I show up in my work every day.

Course
I took this program during the season where I was rebuilding everything and it gave me language for patterns I'd been repeating for years without realizing it. It's not a budgeting course or a financial planning program — it's a deep look at the emotional and behavioral patterns that drive how you earn, spend, and hold onto money. Required reading for anyone who feels weird about charging what they charge.
