January 10, 2020January 10, 2020By JoannaPosted in press, video

I shared a tiny glimpse on Instagram into a crazy opportunity back in November, but in case you missed that… I filmed a video with GoDaddy called Pf**ked Up with Pfunder! And it premiered this morning! The premise behind the entire series is that Shawn interviews entrepreneurs over cocktails and talks about their failures. Because, let’s face it, we’ve all messed up in our careers. But what matters is how you bounce back from it and LEARN (see, there’s my 2020 word of the year). Check out the video & see what I talked about when I was on the show!

My 4 2020 Goals + My Focus Word

January 6, 2020January 3, 2020By JoannaPosted in personal essays, wellness

Happy 2020! I hope you had a great holiday break… I definitely did. The time off was much needed. In case you’re new here, I make an annual practice of sharing my yearly goals here on the blog as a way of staying accountable (here’s my 2019 list). I’m not really one to make resolutions, but instead prefer goals. That just works better for me. I also love to share with you guys because you’re always so wonderful about encouraging me, offering advice, etc. I LOVE it.

I’m also doing something different this year and adding a focus word, basically a concise idea of one concept on which I especially want to focus this year.
