What Does it Mean to Live with Soul? by Sandra Lee Schubert
As we celebrate this 25th anniversary, I find myself returning to a question: what does it actually mean to live with soul? Over the years, the answer has shifted. The twenty-year-old me approached soul as magical and full of possibility. Years later, I have a sack-full of life experience that has deepened me with both scars and wisdom. At its core, it comes down to three things: intention, presence, and reverence. Read it all here...

Life Gets in the Way

  What happens when life gets in the way of those carefully laid-out plans? It does. It irritates me. I want to say, "How rude!" I can stomp my foot and harrumph, but stuff still gets in the way. There was a series of blog post ideas laid out. Research done. I just needed to put them all together, edit them, and post them to the various media sites. Then the dreaded "ick" hit me hard. Leaving out the gory details, I could do my work and then crawl back into a sickly slumber. For weeks. If, like me, you are the sole proprietor of your business, a hiccup like this can set you back. Especially when unplanned. I will confess right now that I coasted on a streak of decent health and was slack in preparing for an emergency or a pause in running a business. I was lucky and covered most of my responsibilities, but left the others for when I was back to reasonable health. 2025 is a new year, it's time to create "Break this in case of emergency" plans.

Whoa, Politics? Right? I Don’t Know What to Do—How About You?

Image
I used to think business and politics could stay in separate lanes. Keep things professional, focus on the work, and leave the heavy debates at the dinner table (or, let’s be real, the internet). But these days? It feels impossible to avoid. We are swimming in a sea of chaos and each of us has strong opinions. Customers, colleagues, networking events—sooner or later, someone drops a political hot take right in the middle of what was supposed to be a normal conversation. And suddenly, I’m standing there thinking, Whoa. Politics? Right now? Or I am ready to snap back with a pithy comment. Ever been there?  Not knowing what to say without causing a fight or compromising yourself? You're not alone. I’ve been there. I am there. I am trying a few ways to handle it without losing my sanity—or my business. This is new territory for many of us. When things are scary or chaotic, we need a new skill set to get through the day. Step One: Breathe. And Maybe Smile (or not). First things first:...

From Ice Cream to Automotive: My Content Creation Process That Adapts to Any Industry

From Ice Cream to Automotive: My Content Creation Process That Adapts to Any Industry Crafting content for a client Over the years, I have worked for a variety of clients, ranging from an automotive consultant and an ice cream maker to a motivational speaker, among many others. One client created products, while another offered services. Each client had a unique take on what they offered, which meant I had to pivot and learn about each of them and their offerings. I am sharing a bit of the process to create compelling content for my clients. This process can shift in order depending on the company I'm helping. Initial Inquiry Clients come from a variety of sources, including LinkedIn, colleagues, friends on social media, or agencies looking for freelancers. Clients' needs are different; some just want content, such as blog posts, articles, social media posts, etc., while others have nothing created yet and require direction, such as websites, social media, and marketing...
