Are you BUSY or are you PRODUCTIVE?
Moment of honesty - are you BUSY or are you PRODUCTIVE? My goal in life (well, in business) is to teach women how to build a 6-figure foundation for their business in 1 hour/day. 5-6 days/week. And there are 2 key ingredients to doing this: Set aside the time to work your business - this one likely seems like a no brainer, but I'm always amazed at how many people are trying to work their businesses in the cracks of their day (stop the madness!)

The New Way to Create a Vision Board for 2025

Okay my friends, let’s have this real chat - because if you’re a leader, you’ve been here. And I know what it feels like, because I’ve been there too. When you want more for your leaders, than they want for themselves. When you feel like if you do ‘this’ it will help them be the leader you know is possible for them. When they say they want it, but then they give up when life throws them a hurdle. In short, it sucks. I get it. But we have to r...

This Podcast episode is actually a replay of a Masterclass that I ran last week - all about the power of building a brand for your NWM'ing business.

And then they're shown the path to success, based on what others have done before them and what has worked in the past.

Annnddddddd, we are back! After a rather long hiatus, I am super excited to kick off a new season of Level Up with Lori. This first episode is a juicy one, and answers a question that I get asked all the time - What would I do differently, if I was to start over again? And truthfully, it’s an easy answer.
