Let me ask you something: When your clients talk about what you do—do they repeat your language, or do they describe you the same way they describe everyone else in your space? Because here is what I see happening with a lot of high-achieving women entrepreneurs: They are amazing at what they do… but their ideas sound generic. Their offers sound like everyone else’s. And that is exactly why they are getting overlooked—or underpaid. The fix? It is all about turning your ideas into branded intellectual property. 🔑That is how you stand out. 🔑That is how you command premium prices. 🔑That is how you build a business that is truly memorable. And I am breaking it all down in this week’s brand-new episode of Breadwinning Business Women: How to Brand Your Ideas Into Intellectual Property (and Make Your Business the Obvious Choice) 🎙️ Inside this mini-training, you will learn: ✅ 4 brands that created category-defining ideas (and how you can do it too) ✅ The 5-step process to turning your everyday ideas into IP that sells for you ✅ The one mistake that causes most entrepreneurs’ frameworks to fall flat If you are ready to be known for something bigger than just “good work”—this one is for you.

It starts small. You second-guess an idea. You downplay a win. You hold back from launching something you know could be powerful. Before you know it, you’re playing small, and you know you’re meant for more. Have you ever caught yourself shrinking? Not physically (although I am not against a great pair of heels) — I mean shrinking your dreams... your voice... your ambition. Maybe someone said something that made you second-guess yourself. Maybe life threw a curveball, and you told yourself, "Maybe I’m not ready after all." I get it. I have been there. And I recorded this week’s episode of Breadwinning Business Women just for you. It’s called “Don’t Let Them Make You Small” — and it is personal, powerful, and packed with practical shifts you can use immediately.

Not the muted, "play it safe" version. And after this episode, you’ll know exactly how to claim it. Book a Call with me  Get on the Confident CEO Waitlist
