If so, it may be time for you to create a location-independent business so that you can live life on your own terms.

Quiz: Do You Have a Struggle Mentality?

September 2, 2014 | By Rosetta |

Do you have a struggle mentality-Today, I received a message from a woman – we’ll call her Sandy – who is having trouble making money in her business. There was one part of Sandy’s email that really touched me and inspired me to write this post.

“I have never not had to struggle. It is all I know and the people around me also have that struggle mentality. But I know without a doubt God has a greater purpose for me in mind. I was not meant to merely to survive, but to thrive.”

Do you have a “struggle mentality,” too? Do you find yourself getting in your own way every time you try to move forward with your goals?

If so, you are certainly not alone in your thinking. It’s a major mindset shift that many women in our Happy Black Woman community have to make when they decide to pursue their dreams.

VIDEO: How to Stop Holding Yourself Back from Being Happy

August 29, 2014 | By Rosetta |

“People are capable, at any time in their lives, of doing what they dream of.” — Paulo Coelho

Waiting to Be Happy VidAre you happy with your life as it is right now?

Or are you postponing your happiness until later?

If you find yourself constantly living in the future while being miserable in the present, you might be holding yourself back from being happy.

You might be delaying your happiness until certain circumstances change in your life.

If you’ve been holding yourself back from doing what you really want to do with your life, the video below could help you shift your mindset.

6 Powerful Strategies for Hosting a Successful 3-Day Live Event

August 27, 2014 | By Rosetta |

Now that I’ve had a chance to get some perspective, I wanted to share some valuable lessons learned from my experience hosting our first 3-day live event for women entrepreneurs! Holding the space for a room full of people over the course of a whole weekend is NOT easy (especially for an introvert like me!), but after seeing the impact the event had on attendees, it was so worth it! We had dozens of women (and a few men!) join us from all over the country to learn practical strategies for getting their businesses off the ground.

Here are my 6 best tips for hosting a successful 3-day live event, based on my own experience with our recent Launch Your Business LIVE 3-Day Boot Camp in Atlanta!

VIDEO: 5 Things You Need to Turn Your Side Hustle Into a Full-Time Business

August 22, 2014 | By Rosetta |

Side Hustle Vid ImageContrary to popular belief, it is totally possible to build a successful business while you still have a 9 to 5 job. In my case, I started my first business as a consultant back in 2008 while I was still working at a nonprofit in DC. My little “side hustle” grew to the point when I was earning a nice supplemental income and ultimately enabled me to leave my job less than 2 years later.

Since then, I’ve had the opportunity to mentor numerous women in our Happy Black Woman community, helping them to stop procrastinating and finally get their businesses off the ground. Now, some women are perfectly happy to build an additional income stream on the side, but most ladies that come to me for help are looking to eventually be able to quit their jobs so they can live life on their own terms. The problem is…there are usually a few key pieces missing from their plan.

If you’ve been longing to grow your side hustle into a full-time business, you might be missing one of the following things. In the video below, I walk you through a handy list to guide you in building the momentum you need to move forward!

Why You Should Always Take a Chance on Yourself

August 10, 2014 | By Rosetta |

file5901256161591I fell in love with Gregory Porter sometime last year. His music is jazzy, original and real. One of my favorite songs of his is called, “But Beautiful.” (Here is a link to Gregory’s live performance of the song in Germany.)

This line hit home for me:

Love is tearful or it’s gay. It’s a problem or it’s play. It’s a heartache either way…

Over the last five years, I’ve built two different businesses, lived in a dozen different cities and experienced several different romantic relationships. Although I’ve enjoyed the feelings of happiness, success and freedom through my lifestyle, I’ve also had my share of loneliness, failure, doubt, confusion, disappointment and heartbreak along the way.

Minimalism 101: How to Live With Less So You Can Have More Freedom

August 5, 2014 | By Rosetta |

2014-07-20 13.34.31

My minimalist bedroom

I’ve been living a minimalist lifestyle since 2011 and it’s worked really well for me and the goals I have for my life. In a nutshell, minimalism is all about living with less – maintaining only what you need and not much else. While this lifestyle is certainly not for everyone, I receive a lot of questions from women in our community who want to learn how to live this way so that they can achieve their big goals.

Minimalism is an attractive lifestyle for many because it can help you:

How to Push Past Your Limits

July 19, 2014 | By Rosetta |

I’ve been easing into the habit of running 3 times a week in preparation for a 5K race this summer (fingers crossed). I have to say, yesterday’s training run was so much easier on the treadmill with hype music and a great ocean view! It was the first time in YEARS that I jogged a whole mile without stopping to walk.

I’ve been here in Hawaii for almost 9 months(!) now and every few weeks, I still pinch myself because I can’t believe I get to live my ideal island lifestyle. I often think back to the moment when I made the decision to come here, more specifically the day I actually bought my one-way ticket from Washington, DC to Honolulu. Man..that was both a scary and exciting day!

You’re Never “Too Old” to Follow Your Dreams

July 16, 2014 | By Rosetta |

10350444_879904748702159_4508953826926823982_n

A few months ago, I called my bank to change my address for one of my checking accounts.

When I told the call center operator that I had recently moved to Hawaii, she gasped and said, “Oh my God, I’ve always wanted to live there!”

I’ve gotten used to people saying things like that when I tell them I live on a tropical island, so I just kept going with the process of completing my transaction.

Or at least, I tried to.
