Laughter is the best medicine, don't you think? My daughter and I got a good dose of it on Christmas day. With unseasonably warm weather in Washington, DC, we went outside and had some great laughs as she took pictures of me with the camera Santa bought for her. Here's one of them.I Laugh. A lot.I'm not a model, but I love pretending to be one, and this cracks my daughter up.When I strike a new pose like I mean it, I hear her snickering behind the lens, and she comments on how cute she thinks I ...

Evolving Friendship
When I launched the Indie Business Network in 2000, I thought I was just starting a business.

But it didn’t start out that way.Evolving: Business + FriendshipAs our businesses have evolved, so has our friendship.Two decades ago, when we first met, Jamila was working with ... Read the Post

Flexibility: Make It Yourself
Before I launched the Indie Business Network in 2000, I held multiple jobs, each of which I enjoyed. But when I decided I wanted to get married and have a family, suddenly, the opportunities that suited me dried up.Nothing appealed to me.I looked into job sharing, but I could not figure out how I could "share" a job and fully own the results.I looked into part-time work, but every woman I talked to told me that "part-time" always turned into "full-time," and I didn't want that either.I ...

Family: Legacy
I often refer to my children as my WHY. This is my excellent 91-year old Mommy. She is my HOW.FamilyWhenever I feel incapable or like I will fail, I hear her voice cheering me on.She is so far superior to anything I could ever hope to be, and I can only pray that, through my stubbornness, some of her wisdom slips through.For me, entrepreneurship has never been so much about business as it is about legacy. If, through my work at @indiebusiness, I can leave a strong and positive legacy, I ... Read the Post

Freedom: Never Waver
New entrepreneurs sometimes ask me how I've managed to be in business over at the Indie Business Network for nearly 20 years. Here are some of the specific questions I receive regularly:• In lean times, how do you resist the urge to try something different?• Don't you have to change with the times?• How did you stay in business during the Great Recession?The answer these (and countless other) questions is the same.Never WaverWhile it may seem constricting to lead the same business for nearly 20 ...
