If you run a business, I can tell you, from experience, that you will not run it as well as you could be if your health is suffering.

In this video I share not only what the challenges in my life have taught me, but how I've learned from my regrets and created an incredible life that I'm very grateful for.

How have your challenges sculpted your life?

In this video, we'll check in on your mindset and how it relates to money.

It's so important to get comfortable with being abundant!

I currently run six businesses, and some of those are bringing in six-figures in revenue.

It's not magic... I did not come from a wealthy family... It's taken focus and determination and I'm here to tell you that earning the kind of income you want is totally possible!

All you need is an open mind so take notes and I'm sure what I have to say will serve you in many exciting ways.

Note: This video was part of a series I ran in my free Facebook group Divas With Grace.  

How To Deal With Insecurity

I’ve struggled with self-worth issues and insecurities most of my life. I know it’s a common struggle for many people. I was never a part of the “cool crowd” growing up. I was tall and lanky with red hair and freckles, and always felt like an ugly duckling.

Some kids were super smart, others were super cute, there were the naturally cool kids, and the quick-on-their-feet funny kids. I didn’t fit into any of those categories. I was bullied for most of my school career... I was made fun of, lots of name calling, signs on my back, spat on, publicly humiliated, ganged up on, and more. I hated going to school on many occasions. It was a very toxic environment for me.

All that being said, I did have a few very close friends who I’m still tight with today. I moved away from Calgary after College and wanted to start a new journey.  I tried to detach myself from the toxicity and moved around a bit. I lived in Vancouver,...

If you're wondering what is your next step in your online business?

Or maybe you’re a seasoned entrepreneur who is ready for your next business experience?

Or maybe you’re already running an online business, but want to take it to the next level?

Whether you’ve been an entrepreneur for years, or you’re just getting started, I highly recommend watching this interview I did with Robyn Bennett - host of the WOMAN ENTREPRENEUR SERIES!

The series featured a lineup of successful business professionals, who shared their top strategies for running a thriving online business from the inside out.

How to train your brain to produce the results you say you want, but never seem to achieve. 

In this post I’m going to get into how our minds work and I’ll walk you through why who you are right now is the sum total of the thoughts that are always playing in your head.

 Who are you right now?

Are you stressed out?

Are you overweight?

Do you live in fear most of the time?

Wherever the buck stops, let’s first review what your thought patterns are, then how you can MASTER THEM, and ultimately achieve your desired outcome.

If this is your first time here, let me introduce myself. As an international entrepreneur, a success coach for women, and a speaker, I own a number of businesses, I travel a lot, and generally have a pretty hectic lifestyle.

Training my brain has helped me with everything I’ve achieved and want to accomplish. Whether it’s a big goal, or smaller action step, focusing my mind in the ways I am going to share with you has been a...

Embracing that "everything happens for a reason" can be a tough pill to swallow sometimes. Especially when in those dark hours of deep depression - as was my case a few years ago.

However, once I believed my life could change for the better, much discovery led to recovery and the realization that I could help others.

I was interviewed by Carol Graham, host of the Never Give Up Hope podcast, to discuss my journey and how what happened to me is now fuelling my entrepreneurial spirit, as well as my passion for business and life coaching women.

When you're stressed out, perspective really is everything.

Last week was an extremely stressful week – or what I perceived to be a stressful week. The tragedy in Manhattan, combined with business and personal issues, caused me to feel overwhelmed, tense, and anxious. Not a fun time, nor is it how I normally feel day to day.

I recall feeling in a similar state a couple of years ago, but something happened that helped me put all of the “stress” I was feeling into perspective.

It was the spring of 2015, and a dear friend of mine announced that his healthy and vibrant brother had suddenly passed away at the age of 37. He suddenly collapsed for no apparent reason and the paramedics were unable revive him.

I was so shocked by the news, but it’s amazing how something like this immediately shifts your experience. I know what I’m feeling isn’t new or really all that profound… what is profound is the moment you feel it. The moment all that perceived...

What does travel do for you?

For me traveling means adventure, new experiences, business meetings, visiting friends and family, vacations, education, growth, speaking other languages, food & wine, and so much more.

It’s my personal drug of choice.

When I travel on my own for business, it also means time to myself. I might be surrounded by hundreds of strangers at the airport, or on an airplane, but I feel like I have uninterrupted time…unless it’s to take my dinner order, or ask me what I’d like to drink.

I travel to Japan a number of times per year, and some of those trips are only for 2 – 3 days at a time. From NYC  to Tokyo is a 13-hour flight and I LOVE IT! During those hours I get to read, watch a movie or two, focus on work, listen to a podcast, or the current business book I’m enjoying on Audible, practice the languages I’m trying to learn, write in my journal, or get some sleep. On some trips it’s all of the above....

Now don’t get all defensive and think this is about “a woman knowing her place” … I’m well aware we’ve come a long way since the 50s. This post is really about strategies that ensure you, as a wife and partner, are happy first. I’ve learned that without baseline joy and contentment, there’s no way a woman can bring herself fully into a relationship.

So, how to be a great wife? Here are 5 ways to know greatness…

#1. Dive into the Self-Care

That may seem counter intuitive when we're talking about relationships, but it's so important that a woman take some time for herself, or she won't be able to truly be present for her partner. Book yourself a massage, enjoy a bubble bath with a glass of wine (or champagne if you’re fancy), go to your local Zumba class - whatever works for you. Once you've showered yourself with a bit of love, you will be in a far better position to shower your loved ones with it as well.

#2. When your...

Advice From A Sexpert - Relationships And Sexual Health

Dr. Jessica O'Reilly travels around the world speaking at events, hosting retreats and working with some of the most powerful couples in the world. She's also the author of several books including Hot Sex, and is a contributor to Women's Health Magazine, Men's Fitness, Cosmopolitan, Showtime and Playboy TV, to name a few. This sexpert is a busy lady, but I had the opportunity to host a live webinar with her - exclusively for my Academy students. Here’s an excerpt from that hot and heavy Q & A.

Kelsey Matheson: When you feel like the attraction for your partner has faded, what can you do? Is this something that can be helped or changed?

Dr. Jess: So if the attraction doesn't fade, I'd be more questioning of it. Attraction inevitably fades and it's a simple chemical process, so once you get to know them, once they become predictable, once you feel close to them, once you're attached to them. Inevitably you're not...
