July Monthly Goal Check-in coming in hot! 🔥🔥🔥
Finished our backyard makeover!
With most of the muscle coming from Evan and the decor and finishing touches by me! I’m very excited that I can stop obsessing over it (many months of that) and now we can enjoy it instead! Which by the way, if you didn’t catch the reveal you can check it out here!
Got on my ish when it came to stepping it up on my blog
I cranked out 9 posts this month and planned out my updated blog schedule, which is pretty lofty for August so watch out!. I also had my first affiliate sales with my new networks (small, but still exciting!), increased my Pinterest monthly viewers from 5k to 27k+ and planned out some exciting goal-related content and resources I'm going to be launching SOON!
Had a really productive month at Bold & Pop
We had a very productive month at Bold & Pop and I’m feeling so optimistic and excited about the direction we're headed in. We banged out 4 Squarespace website design projects, signed 5 new projects and hosted our 2nd Social Media Business Bootcamp with such a great group of women! I also want to celebrate that we've increased our passive and workshop income by 10x since adding new offerings. The pandemic has been rough but it forced us to move forward with a lot of things and I'm excited to have new ways to serve others.
Upped my nutrition and fitness plan
Consistency has always been my downfall when it comes to both of these — isn’t that the case with so many of us! So it feels good to be able to up my game again after sticking with it. Hitting weekly goals week after week has me inching forward little by little and it feels good.
Was Featured on CEO Blog Nation
I've been working on my own PR strategy this summer and landed a press mention in CEO Blog Nation on a story about entrepreneurial curriculums. I submitted 5 other inquiries to some big pubs. Go big or go home is my current press motto.
Finished my 11/12 Book this Year
This month I got back into my reading routine, which I had taken a hiatus from for a few months and finished the 11th book of my 12 book goal for the year. So def going to need to up that one. To those of you who read a lot that might not seem like a lot.. but guys, there were years that went by that I didn’t finish a single book. 🙃 And I know tht isn’t a priority for many, but there were actually a lot of books I wanted to read — mostly non-fiction — so I’ve really enjoyed it being part of my routine. Plus, truthfully it’s such a Godsend in actually helping me go to sleep at night, so it’s kind of a double-purpose goal. I shared some of my favorites I’ve read this year so far in this post too!
Added another title to my life this month
Then on the personal side of things, I added a new title this month. There have been a lot the last few months too. First it was Puppy Mom, then Aunty and now Fiancé. Very exciting! I shared the details of our engagement on this post too!
Hope you guys made it through the month okay too! Just surviving these days is an accomplishment, let's be real... So be sure to give yourself some grace and check-in to celebrate your own small and big wins you made this month!
Why do I do goal check-ins?
I started doing goal check-ins publically as a personal accountability challenge. Working on my goals and strategies to accomplish them have always been really important and by sharing them I felt an extra weight of commitment. Plus, I wanted a way to try and encourage others to have their own check-ins and keep working on their own goals. Helping others reach their dreams has always felt like my purpose and by being vulnerable and sharing the journey of my own I hope to inspire others as well.
