Entrepreneurial You

I’ve been doing a lot of business-y things wrong, without knowing it. As a mompreneur who needs to get healthy-ish cereal into the pantry, tuition checks into the hands of the people who teach my son all the things, and loan payments into the vaults of the loaners I need to be on my business A-game. And, thanks to the new book Entrepreneurial You, I discovered I’ve barely been in the game at all.
.
This book (that provides frequent and clear to-do lists that the Type-A-er in me loves) helped me realize I needed to give a lot of lovin’ to my email list, seek out affiliate partnerships I could feel good about, and open my eyes (and bank account) to the fact that I could do more than get by with my expertise.
.
The book has opened me up to, as Aladdin would sing, a whole new world.
.
For all my fellow mompreneur, or just straight entrepreneurs, Dorie Clark’s new book needs to not only be on your bookshelf but in your purse as that book you read in moments when your phone dies and you have to wait for your kid to finish their karate class, or your partner is making you watch an action flick you were so over before the opening credits ended.
.
But, buyer be warned, this book will light a fire under your tush, so be ready for the urge to act to hit you before you reach the end of the first chapter.

Review: Back to School With Bigfoot

My son is already having concerns about re-entering the equally fascinating and intimidating world of school. He’s such a little guy that it seems hard for him to find the words to express his nerves but this book gave him an outlet to explore his feelings in a fun and non-threatening way. The book makes the point that no matter who you are it can be scary going back to school, but this entry can be even more challenging when you feel like you are different, which so many of us do. This book is fun, humorous, and relatable, offering a safe space for parents and children to examine the emotions attached to a new school year.

“Mind/Body/Spirit Principles are finally showing up in the world of pregnancy/childbirth” – First Early Review!

Feng Shui Mommy Cover

The first early review of Feng Shui Mommy is in! Many thanks Anna Jedrziewski at Retailing Insight!

“Mind/Body/Spirit principles are finally showing up in the world of pregnancy/childbirth and Gaddis is at the forefront of it. Her own pregnancy was an unexpected push in a new philosophical direction and she has made the most of it. Finding limited information to help her through the shift and making the rest up as she went along, she made careful note of not only what kept her going but also helped her to maximize the new experiences toward enlightenment (and a return to sanity). She tells readers that it begins by getting honest. The feelings are messy (beginning with the sudden blow to personal identity) but they must be faced if one is to find the buried treasures contained within the powerful experience of bringing another soul into incarnation. Gaddis used the five elements of Feng Shui, applied to three levels (physical, mental, spiritual), to anchor her perceptions and process what she was experiencing. With or without that framework, she has written a book which offers pregnant women and new mothers a way to maintain balance in all areas of their lives and always find the joy in what is an extremely stressful process.”
