Hustle Hack: Joy said “excellence plus business prowess is what equals success.” What a fantastic point. Being really skilled or talented is not the only thing you need to have to cultivate a flourishing career. I know in my own work I have had to learn how to run a business. I’ve learned about priotizing tasks, putting systems and processes in place that help me streamline the business. I’ve learned about creating invoices and billing, and making sure I deliver on time. So here’s your challenge-- make a list of the aspects of business that you could learn more about, that you could benefit from growing and diving deeper into. Then work on tackling one of those items this month. 

Moment of Grace: Joy said our calendars and our bank accounts show us what our priorities are. Man. There is so much truth in that statement. I want to encourage you to open your banking app and flip open your calendar and take a look. What does it tell you? How are you spending your time and your money? Do you feel that it accurately reflects your priorities? If not, what needs to change?
