What is Success? Is it good for you? Really? – part 2

The Feminine model for Success = collaboration (vs. domination or competition)

So many of us are still operating under the “I have to do it all on my own!!!” (“in competition with the ‘Other’”) mentality, which is old-school, outdated, and “so last-paradigm!”

My friend Beth Allen (http://meetbethallen.com) writes about the power of tribe syndication (Click here to see her article) – a type of online collaboration, when a group of people/women come together to promote one another, with these benefits:

  • each woman within the group becomes known as a resource of amazing information/events/ideas
  • each woman’s information/events/ideas gets spread far beyond their own network – possibly to thousands of people they would otherwise be able to reach

Create your Tribe:

1) Find other practitioners with skills that compliment yours and create events, workshops, interviews together!

2) Create a marketing plan together where each woman commits to who/how/when she will promote each woman in her syndication “tribe” Continue reading

What IS Success? Is it good for You? Really? – part 1

Hi! I’m always here to talk to you about small business success…

What is success?!?

We hear this word all the time.

Success IS having the business, money and nice things you want . . . it is common to day-dream and even consciously vision our ideal car, home, contributions to the world.

But I really believe, that a business is NOT successful unless it is actually bringing you closer to
your children  *  your friends  *   your community  *  even your health

I am a business coach. I work with women, like you; who want to grow your business and achieve ALL of your goals in ways that are

fun , feminine & actually bring you closer to Continue reading

Bringing home the bacon – 3 tips for women doing it all and making money

Over the years women have asked me “How do you do it all?”

At first I really could not answer – The owner of three businesses, I teach yoga and dance on the side, I am a mother, I have a relationship, I enjoy being social, I stay in pretty good shape…

I notice that much of the business training and business coaching out there, is NOT very family or mom friendly: “Go, go, go” and “Make it ‘till you Break!” are the underlining messages of many weekend seminars  and business coaching that I have received. The vast amounts of business training I experience does not really work for me realistically as a mom.

So a while back, I had the thought,
“I should really break down;
what I do,
how I work…
How I do it ALL -and- teach THAT to women…”

That is what I did. Over the years I have “unpacked” what I’ve learned – I got RID of the stuff that did not work – and transformed the stuff that did to match my lifestyle and MY time-frame.

So from where do I get all of this time to do all of these things? (and still honor Family Time by turning the phone and computer off in the evenings and weekends?)

Can a woman own a business(es) and thrive in the realm of holistic, sustainable and nurturing? Continue reading

Grow your Network and your Business without Networking!

I have named the post below, “Growing your Network while Being a Mom”  4 How-To’s based on my personal experience of being a mom and growing my network of clients and collaborators – But, the How-To’s below are really applicable to any person who is on a time crunch or just can’t make it to a million networking events (which tend to be  in the early morning or the evenings – not great times for moms!)

Growing your Network while Being a Mom (or just a busy person!)

Those of you who are also moms know that, depending on your child’s age – motherhood can be a full-time job. I have to say, I really did not have much time or energy for business (or sex, or beauty for that matter) until my son was past the age of two. Though I certainly appreciated the time with my son, I was exhausted and just did not have a lot of energy to go out in the evenings to network, etc…

I did use those years to do relaxed growing of my contacts lists – and my relaxed approach worked!!!

Even as a tired and not-getting-enough-sleep mom, I was able to expand my contacts lists. And the contacts whom I met during that time are still faithful, supportive and partake in my current offerings

Here is How:

1. Every few months I Continue reading

The Art of the Mundane

The High Art of the Mundanereddoor3

I have been thinking a lot about the sacred of the mundane a lot these past few weeks. And then I saw this…

This excerpt was taken by some writing that my gals at Spiral Muse wrote recently:

“We’re Asking Ourselves:  Could ordinary life itself be the most sacred journey of all?  Can mundane existence yield a magical inner dimension that’s normally hidden?   Perhaps our hearths are really divine lungs for the sacred to breathe…”

The practices of being present and being accountable, which are the foci of my circles for the first few months, are often very mundane. They feel different and more ordinary than the practices of being clear and powerful. Yet power piled upon, or combined with anything other that presence and accountability becomes thwarted and un-sustainable. Continue reading

My Favorite Parenting Books

books jessica hadari

This list of must-haves was posted to Facebook by one of my dearest friends Karin Wertheim.

Karin writes: I often find myself recommending my favorite parenting books to parent friends of mine. Today I wrote an annotated bibliography for a friend, and thought I might as well share it with everybody.

Just so you’re aware, I did the attachment parenting thing (co-sleeping, breastfeeding and carrying the kid in a sling as opposed to a stroller, working part time instead of full time, etc.), so the books I’ve read and agree with are generally in that vein.

Beliefs and the Magic of the Womens Circle…

Michael Parks JessicaHadari.com Womens Circles

Most women think it takes years of therapy or hard work to move more and more powerfully in their life. They believe in cause and effect where the past influences our present. Some of this might be true; we do code our memories as metaphor. Through creative visualization, self hypnosis, meditation, nlp, positive spiritual practices, to name just a few you can actually create new metaphoric stories with which to influence your life powerfully.

The processes we do in this circle, like the modalities mentioned above, all tap into the right-brain, where time and logic do not exist. That is a good thing :) We consistently disengage from the Newtonian realm of rules and cause/effect and engage more fully in what I call Source or the Source realm; the dreamlike arena of creative thought, intention, visualization  & manifestation… Continue reading
