What Legacy Are You Leaving?
Who are you choosing to be in this moment? Are you expanding to be your best self, or are you stuck in the muck of negativity and low self-esteem? Deciding what legacy you’re leaving is taking a cleareyed look at the way you’re living & being.
BY KADENA TATE-SIMON
When you open your heart to love and positivity, you make room for enthusiasm and self-compassion. You take better care of yourself, get clearer on your needs, and take steps to nurture your dreams. You can’t do your best work unless you’re being your best self, and being your best self is all about self-love and self-care.

How to Plan an E-Course
Creating an e-course is one of the best things you could do for your business. You take all of your knowledge and information, package it into a great deal, and provide it at scale to your audience. Most people think, “I don’t know anything worth selling” or “I am not a teacher so I couldn’t possibly teach something.”
BY KADENA TATE-SIMON
Don’t sell yourself so short! What you know is extremely valuable and could absolutely benefit your customers. You may think that your market is oversaturated with ebooks, e-courses, blogs, etc., but like I always say, authenticity has no competition because no one has the same stories from your life that you do. What you could teach would be 100% unique because you would do it in your own way.
