Clock Is Ticking. Tic Toc!
Hella resolution troopers in da house! Who cares it’s not January, right?
We’re always on the freaking go. Bom bom bom. Show us the arrow that points to the summit. We’re there. In a heart beat. I love that about you. Have I ever told you that?
So hey, you. Over achiever. Yeah, I know that your middle name. We wear it proudly. Today I’ve got a little kick-in-the-tutu printable for ya’. Yes, hand-illustrated by my 10 little fingers + designed to help you break down your intergalactic dreams into manageable chunks you can actually check-off.
Years of climbing + dancing with or without a tutu have thought me that nothings works better than checklists to move from the “look there’s a squirrel stage” to “action bad-ass gear”.
With checklists you can stay focused + set priorities + forget nothing + turbo charge your productivity. I’m a huge fan. Can you tell? But there’s an art to list making. Like Kung Fu, but not exactly.
Long checklists can never be finished. Period.
Short lists, on the flip side, are realistic + give you superpowers + make you feel amazeballs. There’s an enormous psychological boost in getting stuff done + cruising thought your to-do items, specially when you mark off the things that matter most to you + make the most difference.
So, what on your short checklist Pinky?

Six Secrets to Red Carpet Treatment
As entrepreneurs, we’re hard wired to please + upgrade + giveaway + reward + even wear ridiculous party glasses for our precious customers. But, wait a second, we’re clients too! Who’s gonna take care of us?
I will.
I remember back in college (oh! the glory days when I used to have cable TV), I saw an ad from my cable company offering extra channels for free upon signing up. I immediately called em’ + said I’d like more channels too please, for free, but was told it was for new subscribers only. I told the customer service agent I’d gladly cancel + re-join. After 15 minutes on hold I got my Bravo + TV Food Network + more.
Call me extremely lucky. Perhaps I’m just extraordinarily demanding. I happen to think it’s a little bit of both combined with a pinch of creativity to get the companies I do business with to treat me well + do the right thing when a situation goes awry.
Come borrow my compiled list of secrets to getting more perks upfront + without paying the VIP price tag.
help, please

The Soap + The Tooth + The Box: The Chronicles of Mayi
There is nothing “based on a true story” about today’s adventure.
There are no lions + tigers + bears in this tale.
No panda’s that Kung Fu.
No krakens or fountains of youth.
No wardrobes either. Unfortunately. Would have been nice to have one filled with Anthropologie dresses. I guess those are only available for Hollywood + friends. Until then, these are the “for realz chronicles” of… well, me + myself + I.
What? It’s my blog! Like, the only place where I’m kind of a big deal ya’ know.
Medium deal? Coooome on…!!! I did survive em’. The chronicles I mean. I think I deserve a little confidence boosting spotlight after all my ego had to endure.
And a Nutella cookie (jar).
Your journey lies after the play.

Confessions Of A Fake Santa Claus
People are freaking experts when it comes to asking for things that aren’t offered. Ahem. Ahem.
Does it look like I live in the North Pole?
Have you seen me call my pet Rudolf?
Do you see me wearing a velvety outfit?
Do I HO HO HO instead of LOL?
My point exactly.
The suggestion box is to the left, thank you very much.
I have a lot to say about creating offers inspired by customer feedback, but I can’t strap you to the chair for the full ramble, so a 5 minute vid’ will have to do for now.
For my confessions + revelations + incoherent lessons, hit play.
your turn
In the comments, I would love to hear your experience suggestion box-inspired products + services. How did it go? What did you learn? I still wrapping my finger around this one, so I could really use the extra hand. And I suspect we would all really benefit from listening to each others stories – success + failure alike.
See you on the dance floor.
