Now I recognize the thing that was missing was someone to tie all of these pieces together, showing me how they work, and then supporting me as I’ve integrated and applied this understanding to my business. Beyond this, and perhaps most importantly, I’ve begun to grasp how to look at my business through a lens of joy. I’m actively working on creating a business centered around my lifestyle values, rather than creating a life centered around my business.

​I enrolled in The Confident™ Expert Program so I could have support creating marketing solutions that didn’t cost an arm and a leg—and that actually got results. While working with Shannon & Amy, I was able to develop messaging that was positive and not salesy, as well as a joyful marketing strategy that was tailored to me and my Content Personality®.

I now have clarity in what I offer, a way to say what I do in multiple ways in a way that is engaging—and where my true self can shine. And I now know how to map out an engaging marketing strategy for an entire year, as well as quarterly plan.

During this program, I have experienced a much more immersive experience than expected. I was given some very practical tools to adjust my wording, and I have also received a great deal of personal support in the zoom calls and also at the Joy Money Retreat. The understanding and love that I have received has been wonderful. Being a part of this group has encouraged and inspired me to feel more confident moving forward.

Since I joined The Confident Expert™ Program earlier this year, I have been supported and able to develop, share and sell three new programs that I either would never have done or would have taken so much longer without TCE. So that’s been tremendous.

I saved a huge amount of time. But then also, at least one of those [programs] probably would have fizzled out and never come to fruition without The Confident Expert™ Program. I would have spoken about it and talked myself out of it without our coaching sessions, frankly.

With the Confident Expert Program, I’ve really been able to figure out who my demographic is, I’ve been able to figure out the messaging messaging was really hard for me. So getting just clear on my messaging, and the cohesiveness behind it is where I think the Confident Expert program has helped me a lot.

For me it was the accountability of the group, showing up to those calls and actually participating in that, that made all the difference than just going through the information. The information is amazing, but the really precious gift that you get in the group is the time where we get to really talk about what we’re learning.

“We’re excited about helping people figure out how to make small changes in their daily lives, in their health, in their eating, in their strategy to being healthy that are sustainable, that are building a foundation that you can span above and continue the health that you’re trying to maintain. So we have tons of information. We have tons of resources that we help people go from sleepy, unhealthy with their bodies, unhappy with being in the kitchen, to enjoying life, enjoying their health. And we are the dynamic duo that are their cheerleaders as well. We don’t just give you a program. “Here. Have fun with it.” We actually walk them along, and we become their support team.”

“Finish the Book Publishing is a company that I started when I realized that authors really need help being guided through the system of independent publishing. We see a lot of people just slap a book up on Amazon and make huge mistakes, and it can cost them in the long run. So I’m here, and sometimes people will call me a book shepherd. Sometimes they’ll call me a guide, a consultant, a coach. It doesn’t matter. I hold their hand and walk them through the entire process.”
